This study found that a combination of four transcription factors can transform mouse fibroblasts into cells resembling inner ear hair cells, potentially aiding research into hearing loss treatments.

In this study, the misshaped and hairy ear phenotype in mutant mice was linked to mis-expression of certain Hoxc genes due to a chromosomal inversion.

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 review covers the history, symptoms, and treatment progress for Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome, noting that while no cure exists, understanding its molecular mechanism may improve future treatment strategies.

This study found that pelage abnormalities in Harlequin mutant mice are linked to severe AIF deficiency and associated with altered expression of genes related to hair structure.

In this study, the authors developed a medicated face mask using electrospun fibers to deliver the active compound Eflornithine hydrochloride for managing hirsutism. The mask showed promising drug release characteristics, a high safety profile, and reduced hair growth in mice.

This study suggests that the presence of more than six vellus hairs in the frontal scalp at 20-fold magnification can be an additional criterion for diagnosing early female pattern hair loss.

In this study, researchers identified two de novo germline missense mutations in the hair keratins hHb1 and hHb6 in patients with monilethrix whose parents were not clinically affected.

This abstract discusses two types of hereditary vitamin D metabolism defects, VDDR I and VDDR II, and reports on their distinct characteristics and treatment responses, without presenting new clinical data.

This case study reports on a rare form of vitamin D resistant rickets in a 37-year-old male, highlighting the condition's clinical features and the necessity for a thorough understanding of calcium and vitamin D metabolism in the diagnosis and management of metabolic bone diseases.

This study found that knockout mice lacking intestinal hephaestin are smaller and anemic compared to wild-type, suggesting other mechanisms may compensate for iron absorption.

This study reported that VCP combination chemotherapy achieved a complete response in 53% of advanced non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients, although more intensive treatment may be needed for improved outcomes.

Low-dose pulsed electric fields in a rat model shifted hair follicles from resting to active growth, with voltage as the most influential factor.

This study found that the hairless gene in mice has a more extensive role in development than previously thought, as indicated by its expression in various tissues and associated abnormalities in hr/hr mutants.

In this study, researchers identified a novel and two previously reported pathogenic mutations in the HR gene associated with atrichia with papular lesions in five Pakistani families.

This study found that rat hair-follicle-associated pluripotent stem cells can be successfully differentiated into beating atrial and ventricular cardiomyocytes by using specific combinations of growth factors and inhibitors in culture, demonstrating their potential to form functional myocardial fibers similar to adult heart cells.

The KDM1 gene helps Venus flytraps close by managing potassium ions.

This study describes a co-dominant E410D mutation in keratin hHb6 associated with severe hair loss and extensive papules in homozygous individuals, with variable expression in heterozygous family members.

This study suggests that Keratin 6hf may be a potential marker of oral squamous cell carcinoma and could play a role in its progression, though further research is needed to understand its function.

This observational study reports that a TRASER device using specific wavelengths for vascular and follicular targets showed both clinical responses and histological changes, suggesting its potential as an effective vascular and hair removal tool.

This study found that higher levels of the protein Flii were associated with enhanced hair follicle regeneration and longer hair fibers in a mouse model.

This study identified a distinct gene near the hairless locus on chromosome 8p that is responsible for hereditary Marie Unna type hypotrichosis in a German family.

This case study reports that low-dose testosterone therapy improved libido and sexual functions in a 36-year-old fragile X carrier female with hypoactive sexual desire disorder when monitored regularly for lab parameters.

This case report describes a 27-year-old kidney transplant recipient with end stage renal failure who developed infections and adverse reactions, ultimately resolving with antiviral treatment targeting HHV6.

This study found that the effects of the vitamin D receptor on hair follicle cycling in mice are independent of its ability to bind a hormone, with specific domain mutations influencing hair regrowth outcomes.

This study found two recurrent missense mutations in the hHb6 gene associated with monilethrix in families from Russia and Colombia, supporting their role in this hair disorder worldwide.

This case study reported that growth hormone therapy dramatically improved rickets symptoms and growth in three children with vitamin-D dependent rickets type 2 who had not responded to standard treatments.

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.

In this case study from King Fahad University Hospital, an 11-month-old Saudi boy with a history of short, non-growing hair was diagnosed with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, attributed to a homozygous mutation in the LIPH gene.

This report documents a case where a healthy female developed alopecia universalis after receiving the 9-valent HPV vaccine, highlighting the potential for autoimmune reactions and the importance of prompt medical attention.
