This study found that the protein hairless acts as both a corepressor and coactivator of the vitamin D receptor, influencing gene transcription in a ligand-selective manner.

This case report presents the dental challenges faced by a child with vitamin D-dependent rickets type II, including early onset rickets, alopecia, and specific dental abnormalities, emphasizing the need for comprehensive, multidisciplinary management.

This study found that MK6a-deficient mice showed delayed reepithelialization after superficial wounding but not after full-thickness skin wounds, suggesting MK6a plays a role in activating follicular keratinocytes post-wounding.

This case report describes how alopecia areata and Beau's lines resolved in a child following treatment for Kawasaki disease, suggesting these symptoms may be linked to the underlying autoimmune process.

Playing computer games for a long time could increase the risk of deep vein clots in kids.

This abstract reviews the role of the human KRT 16 wild-type allele in skin and hair development and its association with certain genetic skin disorders, without presenting new findings.

In this case study involving a two-month-old crossbred kid, severe skin conditions characterized by alopecia and pruritic lesions were linked to Malassezia yeast and bacteria, and successful treatment was observed with ketoconazole and supportive care.

In this study, low serum calcium and dietary incompatibilities were linked to hair loss, supporting Ayurveda's connection between Asthi Dhatu and hair, and suggesting an integrative approach for prevention.

This study observed that heavy draft horses with verrucous pastern dermatitis showed significantly increased expression of keratins K6 and K16, suggesting a phylogenetically conserved keratin expression pattern in response to skin inflammation and proliferation.

This report describes a case where oral valganciclovir treatment led to improved skin texture and hair regrowth in a patient with trichodysplasia spinulosa.

This study introduces an efficient ghost-cell based immersed boundary method for simulating fluid-particle mass transfer, capable of accurately handling mixed boundary conditions at particle surfaces.

This study found that skin changes, such as xerosis and pruritus, are common in children with chronic kidney disease and are primarily related to the disease itself rather than haemodialysis.

This study found that the absence of the vitamin D receptor disrupts hair follicle structure during the first catagen in mice, linked to increased expression of the hairless gene.

This study found that KF19418 stimulated hair follicle growth in vitro and accelerated hair regrowth in a mouse alopecia model, with effects comparable to minoxidil.

In this study involving genetically modified rats, researchers observed that specific mutations in the vitamin D receptor affect calcium levels and bone formation, emphasizing the receptor's role in maintaining healthy bone density and its importance in regulating hair cycle and skin health.

This case study reported on a 3-year-old child with vitamin D-dependent rickets type II treated in the Gaza Strip, whose condition deteriorated despite vitamin D and calcium treatments, leading to recurrent chest infections, respiratory failure, and eventual death.

Type I keratin genes are closely linked to the rex locus on mouse chromosome 11, affecting hair development.

This study reports new monilethrix cases in Venezuela, the Netherlands, Belgium, and France, expanding the known mutational spectrum of the disorder with novel mutations in KRT81, KRT83, and KRT86 genes.

This review outlines the various processes activated by the peptide GHK-Cu in tissue remodeling and reports improvements in skin and wound healing but notes a need for further study to fully understand these mechanisms.

This report describes a unique case of hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets (HVDRR) in a dog, caused by a VDR gene mutation resulting in severe hypocalcemia and bone issues, which presented with symptoms similar to those observed in humans.

This case study suggests that an Ayurvedic treatment regimen, involving Amlaki-Amrasthi lepa, Amalaki-Amrasthi kashay, and Avipattikar churna, may effectively manage hair loss symptoms without side effects in a 25-year-old woman.

This article discusses eruptive vellus hair cysts, detailing their appearance, distribution, histology, and potential spontaneous resolution, but reports no new clinical findings on treatment.

This text describes kerion, a severe form of tinea capitis, and emphasizes the difficulty of diagnosis and the need for oral antifungal treatment, but reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a new heterozygous mutation in the connexin 26 gene (c.263C>T; p.Ala88Val) in a premature neonate with KID syndrome, who later died from complications.

This study identified and sequenced several keratin cDNA clones showing distinct expression patterns in mouse epithelia, with in situ hybridization highlighting differences in keratin distribution between normal and hyperproliferative tissues.

This study concluded that age is a significant risk factor for hair fall, as older age increases the likelihood of developing male pattern baldness among adults.

This case report describes a young female with a rare combination of 46,XX gonadal dysgenesis and MRKH syndrome, highlighting associated infertility challenges.

This research identified K31 as a new marker for distinguishing clear secretory cells in human eccrine sweat glands, aiding in differentiating between distinct cell types within these glands.

In this study, human-hair artificial tendon material showed good biocompatibility and variable degradation rates in rabbits, depending on treatment time, with minimal inflammatory reactions observed.
