This study in male rats identified a unique type of mechanoreceptor, the club-like ending, which responds only to touch and not to self-motion during whisking, contrasting with other receptors that show mixed selectivity.

This study found that normal murine hair follicles are direct targets for melatonin bioregulation, expressing receptors that are regulated in a hair cycle-dependent manner, influencing keratinocyte apoptosis.

This study in mice demonstrated that stress or nerve growth factor injection increases sensory neuron activity related to skin innervation, suggesting a strong connection between stress perception and neurogenic skin inflammation.

This study found that TRPA1-deficient mice exhibited normal cold sensitivity but had decreased mechanical response in nociceptors, suggesting TRPA1's role in mechanotransduction.

This study found that Merkel cell clusters require Frizzled6 signaling for their polarity information, while other hair follicle-associated structures align their orientation based on the hair follicle itself.

This review discusses the use of zebrafish larvae as an alternative model for studying ototoxicity, facilitating large-scale screening for otoprotective compounds, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that testosterone replacement in castrated male rats counteracted endotoxemia-induced arterial baroreflex dysfunction without significantly affecting neuroinflammation.

This review provides a comprehensive overview of melatonin's physiological roles, effects, and clinical implications, but it does not present new experimental findings.

This study found that inhibiting neurosteroidogenesis affected GABA A receptor-mediated synaptic inhibition in immature rats but not in adults, suggesting age-dependent modulation of synaptic strength in the spinal dorsal horn.

This review discusses the complex relationship between stress and various skin conditions, highlighting the role of the skin in the stress response and the brain-skin communication pathways, but reports no new research findings.

This review explores the mechanisms of hair cell death due to factors like noise, ototoxic drugs, and aging and reports no conclusive clinical results; ongoing research may eventually enable preventive treatments for hearing loss.

This review highlights that idiopathic hirsutism is characterized by local hyperandrogenization affecting hair growth, without other signs of hyperandrogenism, and shows no new results; racial differences in prevalence are noted but not in androgenic steroids.

In this review, the authors discuss how understanding and co-regulating multiple signaling pathways could lead to effective regeneration of functional hair cells, highlighting current achievements and future approaches such as small molecule drugs and gene therapy for treating sensorineural hearing loss.

This study describes a distinct pattern of trichoscopic features associated with chemotherapy-induced alopecia and how these features evolve through different phases of chemotherapy treatment.

This article discusses the potential of trichoscopy in diagnosing and treating dissecting cellulitis of the scalp and emphasizes the need for early diagnosis to prevent progression but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that Ptprq in the hair bundles may exist as multiple isoforms that are differentially expressed throughout development and affect the organization of stereocilia in the chick inner ear.

This study found that while both natural and bioengineered salivary glands showed similar protein concentrations in response to taste stimulation, their protein compositions and amylase concentrations differed, which may affect nerve signal balance.

The skin acts like an endocrine organ, making hormones that affect skin diseases and respond to stress.

This study suggests that glaucoma patients may face increased risk of optic nerve injury if prescribed medications that can lower blood pressure.

This case report describes a woman with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed non-progressive visual field defects after hypertensive retinopathy, with cotton wool spots indicating retinal nerve fiber microinfarctions.

This report observed that repeated stellate ganglion blocks over six years were associated with improved skin elasticity, increased water content, and more hair follicles on the treated side of a patient's face.

This article discusses the unique regenerative healing process in fetal skin that can occur without scarring, highlighting potential therapeutic targets to reduce fibrosis in postnatal wound healing.

Dermatologists should know about cosmetic science and aesthetics because patients care about skin appearance and health.

This review discusses the neurobiology of sexual function and reports no new results; the authors cover multiple endocrine and neurotransmitter influences on sexual desire, arousal, and orgasm stages.

This study found that psychoemotional stress disrupts hair growth in mice by terminating anagen and suggests a potential pathway for pharmacological management of stress-related hair loss in humans.

This study provides evidence that psychoemotional stress inhibits hair growth in mice by affecting the brain-hair follicle axis, with specific neuropeptides and treatments modulating this effect.

This review discusses the functions and potential therapeutic targeting of TRP ion channels in the skin, noting their involvement in both physiological processes and various pathological conditions, but reports no new experimental results.

This article suggests that modern lifestyle changes, including diet, stress, and chronic anti-inflammatory medication use, may disrupt the natural process of inflammation resolution, increasing vulnerability to chronic disease.

This review discusses surgical factors that may increase the risk of developing complex regional pain syndrome and describes potential preventive techniques but presents no new clinical results.

This review summarizes the anatomical and physiological aspects of human hair and its clinical significance, but does not report new research findings.
