This study showed that vitamin D receptor gene-deficient rats exhibit hair loss and skin abnormalities due to differences in gene and protein expression patterns, while ligand-independent VDR action is crucial for normal hair cycle maintenance and skin formation.

A specific gene variant is linked to heart disease, increased heart muscle, curly hair, and thick skin on palms and soles.

This study found that the rs 1570360 polymorphism and the T-G-C haplotype of the VEGF gene may be associated with a protective factor against polycystic ovary syndrome in a Brazilian population.

In this study, researchers identified PSENEN mutations that can lead to a form of Dowling-Degos disease, characterized by follicular hyperkeratosis and an increased susceptibility to acne inversa, especially in the presence of certain trigger factors.

In this case study, a 46-year-old post-transplant woman with poorly controlled diabetes exhibited a rare acquired form of epidermodysplasia verruciformis associated with HPV-49, marked by unique histological findings that distinguishing it from trichodysplasia spinulosa.

This retrospective study observed that patients with vascular EDS on long-term angiotensin II receptor blockers or beta-blockers experienced fewer vascular events compared to those without cardiac medication under similar lifestyle and emergency care advice.

This study introduced a volar skin excisional wound model that closely mirrors human wound healing and supports evaluation of skin regeneration with multiple appendages and innervation.

This study found that VDR deficiency in mice leads to various skin pathologies but does not affect the phenotype or function of Langerhans cells.

This study found that a catalytically active version of Vav2 significantly altered gene expression patterns in hair follicle stem cells in mice, with these changes varying over the animals' lifespans.

This study reports a case of a child with congenital skin fragility, alopecia, and cardiomyopathy due to compound heterozygous mutations in the DSP gene causing desmoplakin deficiency.

This article presents a collection of interdisciplinary studies by Brazilian researchers that address various societal issues to contribute to the nation's social and scientific development; it reports no new results.

This study found that VEGF expression and microvessel density in hair follicles of Liaoning cashmere goats follow a bimodal pattern correlated with hair development throughout the year.

This article reviews temporal triangular alopecia, emphasizing the utility of dermoscopy for diagnosis, and reports no new clinical treatment findings.

The vellus index is a simple, quick, and reliable method to assess and monitor hair growth, especially in hirsutism.

This study found that restoring vitamin D receptor expression in keratinocytes of VDR null mice prevents alopecia by enhancing the hair follicle's proliferative response during anagen initiation.

This case report documents an unusual instance of follicular vitiligo in a young woman, characterized by selective hair depigmentation on the forearms, distinctive dermoscopic and Wood's lamp findings, and histological evidence suggesting functional impairment rather than complete loss of follicular melanocytes.

This study found that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3/VDR inhibits β-catenin's role in keratinocyte proliferation but enhances its role in hair follicle differentiation.

This study identified a novel nonsense mutation in the VDR gene in two patients with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets and alopecia, leading to resistance to 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3.

This study identified three new mutations in the VDR ligand-binding domain that may cause dysfunction, and noted that oral calcium and calcidol treatment was effective, but only one patient experienced hair growth.

This study introduced a viscoelastic dry electrode that successfully reduces motion artifacts in EP monitoring on hairy skin, maintaining stable performance for up to 48 days.

The document's conclusion cannot be provided because the document is not accessible or understandable.

This study found that mice lacking the vitamin D receptor showed disrupted hair follicle cycling and balance between cell proliferation and differentiation, highlighting VDR's role in hair cycling regulation.

This study observed that cultured dermal papilla cells showed distinct functional properties from dermal fibroblasts, including lower proliferation rates, higher adhesion to collagen type IV, and different cell-matrix interactions.

This report documents a 14-year-old Chinese boy with mitochondrial encephalopathy, lactic acidosis, stroke-like episodes, and a de novo A3243G mitochondrial DNA mutation, highlighting the condition's multisystem involvement without ragged red fibers in muscle biopsy.

This chapter hypothesizes that vitamin D signaling in the skin may suppress UV radiation-induced epidermal tumor formation, reviewing potential mechanisms without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that mice lacking the Vitamin D receptor showed disrupted hair follicle cycling, which was partially restored with hedgehog signaling pathway activation, suggesting a role for this pathway in follicle regulation independent of vitamin D.

This study found that a novel missense mutation in the vitamin D receptor caused hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets with alopecia by disrupting protein function, highlighting the importance of DNA binding in hair development.

This study found that hair follicle homeostasis in mice requires vitamin D receptor expression in keratinocytes, independent of its ligand activation.

This study reports that using stamps to mark scalp incisions with gentian violet ink and a barrier film improved incision symmetry and maintained slot visibility for hair graft insertion in the frontal region.
