This study suggests that Notch1 acts as a key signal in skin epithelium, promoting immune cell recruitment and aiding in normal skin repair after damage.

This study found that human skin expresses proenkephalin, whose expression is upregulated by environmental stress and varies in pathological conditions, increasing in psoriasis and decreasing in melanocytic tumors.

This study details the isolation and characterization of the human type II 5 alpha-reductase gene, which may play a role in male pseudohermaphroditism, prostate cancer, and benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This review discusses the JAK-STAT pathway and the use of FDA-approved JAK inhibitors for autoimmune and inflammatory diseases but reports no new research findings.

This study found that both 2% and 3% minoxidil resulted in a significant increase in hair counts for participants with androgenetic alopecia over 12 months.

This study reported that mycophenolate mofetil was effective in reducing signs and symptoms of active lichen planopilaris in 83% of patients who had failed multiple prior treatments.

The p53 protein has complex, sometimes contradictory functions, including tumor suppression and promoting cell survival.

This study established a new in vitro culture system that supports the growth and dynamic self-organization of hair follicle stem cells and their progeny, promoting a stable population equilibrium.

This study found that DNA strand segregation in multipotent hair follicle stem cells occurs randomly during development and tissue homeostasis, challenging the immortal strand hypothesis.

In this review, the researchers detailed how the p63 transcription factor influences epithelial stem cell activities such as self-renewal, differentiation, and proliferation, highlighting the role of TAp63 and ΔNp63 isoforms in both normal tissue development and cancer pathogenesis.

This study found that Google Trends data on search terms like "eyelid plastic surgery," "facelift," and "rhinoplasty surgery" significantly correlated with actual US surgery volumes, highlighting its potential use for plastic surgeons in marketing and advertising decisions.

This review discusses the potential therapeutic effects of targeting the endocannabinoid system for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy and reports no new clinical results, highlighting the need for ongoing research.

In a study on muscle regeneration in mice, researchers found that platelet-secreted CXCL7 is crucial for recruiting neutrophils to injury sites, aiding early muscle repair and optimal regrowth, suggesting potential therapeutic uses for boosting muscle healing.

This study observed that hair density and thickness were significantly reduced across multiple scalp sites in South Korean women with hair loss, highlighting potential patterns that could aid in differentiating hair disorders.
