,
February 2019 in “Journal of cellular physiology” This study found that in yak hair follicles, TGF-β2 significantly contributes to the transition from growth to regression phases via inducing apoptosis, whereas HSP70 appears to inhibit follicle regression by protecting epithelial cells from apoptosis.
August 2025 in “International Journal of Clinical Dermatology” In this study, a possible case of Wolf’s isotopic response was observed, where a 72-year-old woman developed superficial basal cell carcinoma at a prior herpes zoster site on her scalp, possibly due to altered local immunity from the zoster episode.

January 2014 in “Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism” 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.
April 2026 in “Indian Journal of Dermatology” 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.
October 2023 in “BMJ Case Reports” This case report describes a man diagnosed with Hoffman syndrome, characterized by muscle hypertrophy and weakness due to severe hypothyroidism, who had an excellent response to thyroid hormone replacement.
December 2016 in “Journal of Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery” In this study, the Instant Follicular Hair Unit Transplant technique demonstrated superior hair growth compared to conventional FUE in patients with androgenetic alopecia, although it requires a steeper learning curve for surgeons.

September 2002 in “Journal of Bone and Mineral Research” This study found that a specific VDR amino acid substitution in children with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets disrupts ligand binding and gene activation but does not impair hair follicle development.
August 2023 in “Diagnostics” This study observed that using ultra-high-frequency ultrasound with 70 MHz probes effectively assessed the distribution of hyaluronic acid fillers and improvements in nasolabial fold wrinkles, with significant changes in dermal thickness and wrinkle scores maintained 24 weeks after treatment.
August 1989 in “Proceedings ... annual meeting, Electron Microscopy Society of America/Proceedings, annual meeting, Electron Microscopy Society of America” This microscopy study examined the non-keratinous regions of human hair fibers, revealing detailed morphology that could help understand how external influences affect hair structure.
