Sex hormones affect brain cells differently in males and females.

Two mutations in KRT74 and EDAR genes cause sheep to have finer wool.

Hair follicles may help teach the immune system to tolerate new self-antigens, but this can sometimes cause hair loss.

Overexpressing Merkel cell virus proteins in human hair follicles can create clusters of cells that resemble Merkel cell cancer.

Skin bacteria can help wound healing by activating certain immune cells.

Opioid use may lower PSA levels, suggesting a possible role in prostate cancer control; PSA testing is useful for detecting prostate cancer; serum triglycerides are not linked to prostate cancer risk; and higher urethral PSA levels may be associated with local hormone activity.

Antigens from skin cells may cause hair loss in perinevoid alopecia.

Melanocyte-associated antigens may play a key role in alopecia areata and could be targets for new treatments.

Herpes gestationis is linked to certain antigens, atopic eczema affects T cell populations and may be eased by breastfeeding, higher doses of anti-androgen treatment can improve androgenic alopecia, topical minoxidil increases hair thickness, long-term methotrexate therapy can cause liver fibrosis in psoriasis patients, and Lichen Sclerosus et Atrophicus patients aren't at higher risk for autoimmune disorders.
