In this study, stress experienced by transmen during early stages of gender transition was associated with reduced nocturnal blood pressure decline and increased C-reactive protein levels.

This study identified trichohyalin as an early differentiation marker in hair follicles, with potential structural roles related to alpha-helical formations, based on the partial characterization of its cDNA in sheep.

This review discusses immunohistological and immunofluorescent methods for studying the human hair follicle cell cycle, reporting no new results, and suggests its potential for advancing cell cycle research.

This study found that among reproductive-age women across India, there was a high prevalence of PCOS, with phenotype C being predominant and most women exhibiting metabolic abnormalities, highlighting the importance of integrating PCOS management into national health strategies.

This review discusses the development and impact of barbed sutures on surgical outcomes across various procedures but reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a distinct gene near the hairless locus on chromosome 8p that is responsible for hereditary Marie Unna type hypotrichosis in a German family.

The researchers developed semi-dissolving microneedle patches using TEMPO-oxidized bacterial cellulose nanofibers, which allow effective transdermal drug delivery by forming micro-channels for large drug quantities, overcoming traditional microneedles' low drug loading.

This review examines the mixed evidence on mast cells as regulators of skin fibrosis and highlights existing gaps in the scientific understanding, reporting no new experimental results.

This report discusses historical cases of visual side effects from scalp corticosteroid injections for alopecia areata and attributes their rarity now to improved injection techniques and smaller particulate sizes in suspensions.

In this study, mouse amnion epithelium was successfully transformed into skin and hair follicles when associated with hair-forming dermis, revealing the necessity of specific influences for follicle formation.

This study found that 9% of tested patients had positive patch test reactions linked to hair care products, with most reactions clinically relevant and commonly involving allergens like p-phenylenediamine.

A specific gene mutation causes sparse, brittle hair in a family.

This review discusses the types, causes, and treatments for skin pigmentation disorders, examining clinically tested options including 25 plants, four marine species, and 17 medications.

This study extended a skin diffusion model to include a porous pathway, effectively explaining the permeability of both polar and lipophilic solutes through the stratum corneum.

This review discusses the emerging roles of transit-amplifying cells in tissue regeneration and cancer formation, highlighting their significance beyond a mere transitional state in hair follicles and the hematopoietic system.

Argininosuccinic aciduria can cause hair loss.

This study found that intraovarian PRP treatment in women with low ovarian reserve was associated with significant increases in serum AMH levels in some patients, typically within four weeks.

This article reviews the cellular dynamics affecting dermal papilla size in androgenetic alopecia and suggests targeting DP size could improve therapies, but it presents no new clinical data.

Amenorrhea is when a woman doesn't have periods, with primary amenorrhea starting by age 15 or within five years of breast development, and secondary amenorrhea when periods stop for three months. It affects 3-4% of women not pregnant, breastfeeding, or in menopause, mainly due to polycystic ovary syndrome, hypothalamic amenorrhea, hyperprolactinemia, and ovarian failure.

This study found that an 11-month-old Japanese infant developed biotin deficiency while on a Japanese amino acid formula without biotin, which was resolved with biotin supplementation.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome had significantly higher serum and intrafollicular levels of anti-Müllerian hormone compared to normovulatory women, indicating a potential marker for ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome risk.

This study found that Sp6 overproduction in ameloblast-lineage cells increased cell proliferation and ameloblastin expression, suggesting that Sp6 promotes amelogenesis by inhibiting follistatin gene expression.

This report describes a case of Ambras syndrome with a chromosomal inversion on chromosome 8, similar to a previous case, but not associated with altered androgen levels.

In this review, Ziziphus lotus was reported to have multiple traditional uses and demonstrated various pharmacological properties in lab and animal studies, with over 181 identified bioactive compounds; however, clinical trials are needed to confirm its efficacy as a medicinal agent.

In this study, iNKT10 cells were found to play a significant role in preventing and treating alopecia areata in a humanized mouse model, suggesting these cells could have potential in managing related autoimmune disorders.

This study reported that sunscreen with SPF50+ provides a high level of DNA protection against UV-induced damage in a reconstituted human epidermis model, comparable to that in skin explants.

This study observed that Endoglin is crucial for maintaining correct hair follicle cycling and stimulating hair follicle stem cell niches through feedback interactions involving Wnt/β-catenin and Bmp/Smad signaling pathways in a mouse model.

This study in transgenic mice found that the combination of SPF 15 sunscreen and a UVA filter provided strong protection against UVA-induced elastin promoter activation and thus may reduce photoaging.

This study found that anethole reduced oxidative stress and inflammation in acetic acid-induced colitis in mice, suggesting protective effects in this experimental setting.

This study identifies a mutation in the hairless gene that may impact thyroid receptor interaction, contributing to alopecia universalis congenita in an Arab Israeli patient.
