In this in vitro study, wedelolactone induced selective apoptosis in prostate cancer cells by inhibiting 5-Lox activity, suggesting it may have potential as a treatment for prostate cancer.

In this study, bovine milk-derived oligosaccharides were found to increase sebocyte proliferation, lipid content, and inflammatory mediator synthesis through the mTORC1 pathway, potentially contributing to milk-based inflammation in sebocytes.

In this study, a transgenic mouse model was used to demonstrate that targeted cell loss in different tissues led to varying degrees of regenerative outcomes, including reversible impaired glucose tolerance, irreversible hair loss, and permanent moderate deafness.

Some patients with Alopecia Areata experience itch due to immune cells and enzymes that cause itching.

This study describes a method for labeling and tracking hair follicle stem cells in mouse skin using a Cre/lox recombination system with tamoxifen, providing insights into stem cell behavior and contribution to tissue regeneration.

This review discusses persistent adverse effects of 5α‐reductase inhibitors, like diminished libido and erectile dysfunction, in some patients and highlights the need for patient discussions before therapy, especially for androgenetic alopecia.

This study suggests that canonical BMP signaling, particularly involving Smad1 and Smad5, plays a critical role in hair follicle stem cell regulation and hair morphogenesis, with distinct roles from pSmad8.

This review discusses the potential uses of 5α-reductase inhibitors for conditions ranging from benign prostatic hyperplasia to skin disorders like acne and male pattern baldness, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that deleting FoxN1 in specific thymic epithelial cells disrupted the 3D thymic structure and led to age-dependent formation of 2D epithelial cysts, highlighting FoxN1's critical role in thymic morphogenesis.

This study successfully created a mouse model with conditional knockout of the p75 neurotrophin receptor gene in epidermis cells, with no significant changes in skin histomorphology observed.

Inflammation may be linked to hair loss, and targeting specific enzymes could help treat it.

This study identified ten novel compounds that may effectively target steroid 5 alpha-reductase 2 (5αR-2) for potential treatment of benign prostate hyperplasia, exhibiting comparable binding energies to existing drugs like finasteride and dutasteride.

This review explores the phytochemistry and phytopharmacology of Urtica dioica but reports no new experimental findings, focusing on its traditional uses and range of bioactive constituents.

This study found that pectin lyase-modified red ginseng extract may promote hair growth by enhancing antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, along with inhibiting testosterone-induced 5-alpha-reductase in human hair dermal papilla cells.

This study suggests that 5α-reduced glucocorticoids may have anti-inflammatory potential and could serve as biomarkers for liver inflammation in metabolic disease, with implications for drug development.

In this study, Alox15 knockout mice exhibited disrupted skin integrity and increased inflammation, suggesting that Alox15-mediated resolvin D2 production is crucial for maintaining skin homeostasis by suppressing inflammation.

This study revealed that nestin-expressing progenitor cells capable of becoming ORS keratinocytes are present during both hair follicle development and in adult hair follicles.

This study found that nestin-expressing unipotent progenitor cells capable of differentiating into outer root sheath keratinocytes are present during hair follicle development and in adult hair follicles.

This study identified the rough coat mutation in mice, but found that LOXL is not the causal gene, although its downregulation might contribute to related phenotypic changes.

Injecting lentiviral vectors into early gestation mice effectively targets skin stem cells for potential gene therapy.

The researchers reported that minor salivary gland stem cells exhibit stem cell characteristics and respond to tobacco-derived carcinogens, implicating the transforming growth factor beta pathway in their maintenance.

This study found that photoexposure significantly increased the gene expression of altered elastin, MMP12, and LOX, as well as the protein expression of tropoelastin and fibrillin-1, in skin models.

Krt6a-Cre transgenic mice help study gene effects on hair follicle development and tumor suppression.

This study reported that a Megsin-Cre transgene enables genetic manipulation primarily in skin, forestomach, and esophagus tissues, offering a new tool for studying development and diseases in these areas.

This study observed that PCR-based genotyping for cre-loxP mice can lead to errors due to cre-mediated recombination in non-target tissues like tails, affecting the detection of lox alleles.

This review discusses the biological effects and mechanisms of THSG in antiaging and related disease treatments but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that high-resolution tusk isotope profiles from an African elephant can serve as a proxy for the seasonality of diet and precipitation, helping to reconstruct vegetation and climate in modern and fossil ecosystems.

In this study, researchers found that young men with androgenic alopecia exhibited significantly higher mRNA levels of 5α-reductase isozymes and changes in prostate cancer-related genes, which could explain varying responses to treatment and guide future therapies.

This study observed that mice with a whole-body deficiency of Cystathionine-β-synthase developed severe hyperhomocysteinemia and related mild symptoms without increased mortality, indicating HHCy may not directly cause end organ damage.

This study reported that in degenerative alopecia, Zn²⁺/Cu²⁺-dependent proteases are downregulated and destabilized, and a specially developed microneedle patch reactivated these enzymes, reduced senescence, and enhanced hair regeneration in an animal model.
