This study found that Brandt's hedgehog has the thickest skin on its back and the thinnest on the cloacal region, with sebaceous and sweat glands primarily located in the nostril area.

Among adult male rats, this study found that combined exposure to lithium carbonate and lead acetate over 28 days led to synergistic cardiotoxic effects, evidenced by oxidative stress, ECG abnormalities, and molecular markers of increased apoptosis, despite no observable structural damage to myocardial tissue.

In this study, researchers identified a new dominant mutation in Hairless mice, called Pied, resulting from a deletion in the Adam10 gene, which causes freckle-like skin pigmentation by inhibiting melanocyte expansion.

This study revealed that deleting EZH2 in mesenchyme-derived cells of the female reproductive tract led to impaired uterine gland development and pregnancy loss in mice, highlighting EZH2's crucial role in fertility.

This study found that the cytoplasmic dynein component Dynlt3 is essential for effective melanosome transport and transfer in mouse melanocytes, linking melanosome positioning and acidity to the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This study found that intense pulse light and diode laser treatments were similarly effective and tolerable for reducing unwanted facial hair in female patients with hirsutism, with no significant differences in hair reduction, adverse effects, or patient satisfaction between the two methods.

In this case report, a late preterm male infant presented with a pathogenic TP63 gene variant, consistent with Rapp-Hodgkin Syndrome, showing symptoms such as ichthyosiform erythroderma, cleft palate, and ankyloblepharon, highlighting the complex management and diagnostic challenges in such cases.

This case report describes a 4-year-old girl with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy, linked to mutations in the cadherin 3 gene affecting P-cadherin expression.

The researchers reported increased ubiquitination of proteins such as the insulin receptor in CYLD cutaneous syndrome skin tumors, suggesting that CYLD dysfunction may affect protein secretion and signaling processes.

Nelfb is essential for dermal fat development and survival.

This study found that substituting soy hulls for corn-based supplements did not significantly affect ewe growth, reproductive performance, or lamb performance in pasture-based hair sheep systems.

This case report documented the management of a 46-year-old female with Marine-Lenhart syndrome, combining antithyroids with minimally invasive sclerotherapy to achieve euthyroidism and reduce thyroid nodule size by 58%.

This pilot study found that an 8-week treatment with a hyaluronic acid and hydrogen peroxide gel improved folliculitis symptoms and patient satisfaction, supporting its potential use in dermatologic practice and future trials.

This study found that ZDHHC13 deficiency in mice is associated with abnormal liver function, lipid metabolism issues, and impaired mitochondrial function, highlighting ZDHHC13's regulatory role in liver metabolism.

This study found that the HoxC gene cluster plays a critical role in the development of ectodermal organs, including hair and nails, with mammalian-specific enhancers increasing transcription levels during development.

ASLAN004 was safe and well-tolerated, supporting further development for treating certain diseases.

This study reported that a 19-year-old man's essential fatty acid deficiency was reversed with daily topical application of linoleic acid, improving clinical symptoms and normalizing certain fatty acid levels.

Low-dose naltrexone helps improve symptoms and stabilize frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planopilaris.

This review discusses the application of low-level light therapy for hair loss treatment, particularly androgenetic alopecia, and reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest consideration of light source characteristics and potential pros and cons.

This case report of an infant with IPEX syndrome highlights the importance of early recognition and treatment, as the patient experienced severe symptoms and succumbed before stem cell transplantation.

This study suggests that ELF5 plays a crucial role as a regulator and maintainer of stem/progenitor cell functions, impacting normal skin development and homeostasis.

This study identified a gene mutation in the LIPH gene associated with inherited hair loss and hair growth defects in certain populations, suggesting lipase H plays a role in hair development.

This study found that the PSEN1-P242LfsX11 mutation in hidradenitis suppurativa influences cytokine and chemokine expression in macrophages, potentially affecting inflammatory responses.

Lustre mutant sheep have normal hair structure and proteins but differ in felting properties.

In this study, ethyl acetate fraction of Eclipta alba was found to inhibit adipogenesis and reduce dyslipidemia in hamsters, suggesting potential as an herbal treatment for obesity.

In this study, the researchers developed a hydrogel mimicking the fetal environment that significantly accelerated wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in vivo, with over 94% wound closure in 14 days, surpassing hydrogels lacking certain additives.

This article reviews the role of LMNA gene mutations, particularly in Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome, but does not report new experimental findings.

A new mutation, Glu402Lys, in hair keratin is linked to variable symptoms of monilethrix.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy with argon sputter etching visualizes hair lipids at the cell membrane complex as distinctive convex structures, shedding light on their role and localization in human hair.

In a controlled study, researchers observed that lambs exposed to colder temperatures had increased wool growth, thicker skin, altered physiological traits, and activated specific molecular pathways, highlighting potential targets for enhancing cold tolerance, welfare, and productivity in sheep breeds.
