This study identified collagen XXII as a novel extracellular matrix protein specifically present at tissue junctions, where it functions as a cell adhesion ligand for skin epithelial cells and fibroblasts.

This review examines how biochemical and biophysical induction factors influence cell fate in tissue engineering and reports no new experimental results.

The authors conclude that optimizing hair shaft production and appearance may best be achieved by integrating biological, chemical, and physical intervention strategies.

This review discusses recent advancements in skin epigenetics, focusing on how epigenetic mechanisms regulate gene expression during normal skin function and their dysregulation in conditions like skin disorders and cancer, but reports no new clinical results.

This review highlights how cyclodextrin-polysaccharide hybrids can advance drug delivery and environmental cleanup by improving the solubility and stability of hydrophobic molecules, serving as promising platforms for biomedical applications and efficient sorbents for wastewater treatment.

This study reported that discarded squid ink was used to develop a high-performance, environmentally friendly hair dye that offers a stable deep black color, UV protection, and preserves hair structure, while showing excellent biosafety in lab tests.

This study demonstrates that Wnt signaling plays a crucial mechanoregulatory role in skin regeneration by influencing cellular responses to substrate rigidity, which promotes hair follicle regeneration in the wound-induced hair neogenesis model.

This review suggests that combining PRP with minoxidil may be more effective for promoting hair growth in androgenetic alopecia than using either treatment alone, although study variations limit definitive conclusions.

This study identified seven new compounds from the plant Sansevieria trifasciata Prain and predicted that four of them may have better anti-alopecia activity than minoxidil through an in silico approach.

This review discusses the evolution of surgical robotics and examines the potential and current limitations of autonomous and intelligent systems in robotic-assisted surgeries.

In this study, immobilized VEGF selectively captured endothelial cells under various shear stresses, suggesting its potential for promoting endothelialization in vascular grafts or implanted tissues.

This study suggests that Keratin 15 expression in stratified epithelia may be regulated by two distinct mechanisms involving PKC/AP-1 pathway for differentiation and FOXM1 for basal cells, challenging its reliability as a sole stem cell marker.

This study found that EGFR and MEK inhibitors may induce acneiform skin toxicities by interacting with the skin bacterium Cutibacterium acnes to increase IL-36γ and IL-8 production in keratinocytes.

This study found that methanolic extract of Eclipta alba leaves exhibited strong antibacterial effects against certain pathogens including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, but it showed no activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, including drug-resistant strains.

This study found that microbial transformation of dihydrotestosterone with two types of fungi produced eight metabolites, among which metabolites 5–7 were significant inhibitors of butyrylcholinesterase, suggesting potential in Alzheimer's disease management.

This study suggests that cepharanthine may play an important role in treating SARS-CoV-2 infection by targeting multiple pathways and related targets associated with COVID-19.

Hair follicles in injured skin can quickly accumulate minerals, especially calcium and phosphorus.

This study found that bufotalinin, derived from Merremia peltata leaves, may enhance hair growth by acting as a potential androgen receptor antagonist in rabbits.

This study found that cepharanthine significantly inhibits EqHV-8 infection in vitro and improves lung tissue pathology in infected mice by reducing oxidative stress through specific signaling pathways, suggesting its potential as a treatment for equid herpesvirus type 8.

This study found that components derived from Sansevieria trifasciata demonstrated notable antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Streptococcus aureus, highlighting potential for developing new antibacterial agents.

This study found that ablation of Tet2/Tet3 genes in skin epithelial cells altered hair shape and length, leading to hair loss, by affecting chromatin accessibility and gene expression related to hair follicle regulation.

This study found that a postbiotic derived from hawthorn and probiotics can alleviate loperamide-induced constipation in aged mice by regulating several physiological processes, including intestinal water and sodium metabolism, maintaining gut flora and barrier, reducing inflammation, and enhancing short-chain fatty acid metabolism.

This study found that a sub-fraction of Noni fruit, FEA-3, showed hair growth-promoting effects in a rabbit model of androgenic alopecia, similar to Minoxidil.

This study found that modifying biphasic calcium phosphate/poly(methyl methacrylate) bone cement with human hair keratin improves its hydrophilicity, mechanical properties, and supports bone repair in rats, indicating potential for orthopedic applications.

This study suggests that hydroxytyrosol may influence inflammation and oxidative stress pathways in androgenetic alopecia, particularly through interaction with the PTGS2 gene, warranting further experimental validation.

In this study, researchers explored whether minoxidil, a common treatment for androgenetic alopecia, may have estrogenic activity and found preliminary evidence suggesting it could act as a partial agonist of Estrogen Receptor α (ERα).

This study used an in silico/in vitro approach to identify potential inhibitors of the enzyme SRD5A2, finding that the androgen receptor modulator MK-0773 is a moderate inhibitor, although it does not act as a covalent inhibitor like finasteride.

In this study, the synthesis and testing of new pyrroloquinoline derivatives identified compound 7p, which showed low micromolar cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 and HeLa cells, highlighting its potential for development into a potent anticancer agent.

This study found that topical rebamipide, originally a gastric ulcer medication, can activate hair follicle stem cells and promote hair regeneration by modulating dermal adipocyte metabolism, with potential targeting of the prostaglandin E receptor EP4.

Wnt signaling helps regenerate hair follicles in wounds by reducing skin cell sensitivity to mechanical stress.
