In this study, rabies virus antigens were detected in the outer root sheath of the follicle-sinus complex in the muzzle skin of rabid dogs, suggesting its usefulness as an alternative diagnostic specimen.

This study found that altering neurosteroid levels during early development in male rats can influence KCC2 levels, underscoring the role of neurosteroids in hippocampal maturation.

This study suggests that dermal stem/progenitor cells can be enriched by intracellular granularity and display high proliferation and differentiation potential in vitro, distinguishing them from other fibroblasts and progenitors.

This article describes a rare case of mixed black and white piedra in a patient's scalp hair, which is unusual as these two types of piedra rarely occur together.

THAP1 gene changes do not affect DYT1 dystonia; finasteride may help reduce tics and OCD in Tourette syndrome.

This study developed dissolving microneedles using specific polymers for transdermal delivery of rizatriptan benzoate, demonstrating improved drug skin penetration and significant alleviation of migraine symptoms in vivo compared to passive diffusion, suggesting potential advantages over conventional treatment methods for acute migraine.

This review discusses the current and emerging methods for profiling skin microbes to advance our understanding of the microbiome in skin disease, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that a blackcurrant extract with phytoestrogen activity increased hair number and stem cell marker expression in a menopausal rat model, suggesting a potential benefit for hair loss.

This study found that a gintonin-enriched fraction from ginseng promoted hair growth in mice by stimulating dermal papilla cell proliferation and increasing hair follicles and weight.

This study reported that derivatization with 5-butylpicolinic acid improved the sensitivity for detecting testosterone and DHT in saliva using LC-ESI-MS/MS, with minimal interference from the saliva matrix.

This study found that CD99 is strongly expressed in the basal cells and hair follicles of normal adult and developing fetal skin, with expression patterns becoming similar after 20 weeks of gestation.

In this study, exposure to the drug finasteride in Silurana tropicalis significantly increased testosterone levels in liver and testis tissues and altered gene expression related to male reproduction and oxidative stress.

This case report discusses minoxidil-induced anasarca as a potential side effect in patients using minoxidil for hypertension, emphasizing the importance of recognizing it for early diagnosis and management.

This article discusses post-finasteride syndrome as a distinct syndrome related to prolonged use of 5α-steroid reductase inhibitors, noting persistent side effects even after discontinuation and no new research results are reported.

This article reviews how biomaterials and stem cells could advance regenerative medicine but does not report new results, emphasizing the potential of combining novel biomaterials with stem cells for effective therapies.

This study found that tianeptine may suppress the transition to catagen, promoting hair growth in a stress-induced alopecia areata mouse model.

A specific gene mutation is linked to a hereditary form of dystonia that responds well to certain medications.

This study observed that gerbils exhibit a different wound healing mechanism compared to mice, with lower TGF-B1 expression and distinct tissue responses, yet achieve similar healing outcomes.

This study found that transthyretin and megalin expression in human scalp hair follicles varies significantly with the hair growth cycle, peaking during anagen and diminishing in catagen and telogen phases.

This article reviews common scalp and hair disorders in children and adolescents and outlines diagnostic approaches, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that nicotine caused damage to cochlear hair cells in vitro, and melatonin might protect against this damage, indicating its potential as a treatment for smoking-induced hearing loss.

This study found that glioblastoma cells express key enzymes involved in androgen synthesis, suggesting these enzymes might be potential targets for new therapeutic strategies.

This study optimized a screening assay to identify molecules that inhibit or enhance TRPM5 ion channel activity, which may have implications for treating dysfunctions linked to cardiac arrhythmias and diabetes.

In this study, bright light exposure during the daytime did not significantly affect clock gene expression in humans, although Rev-erb-ß expression appeared stronger under bright light compared to dim light.

Finasteride significantly reduced tics and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in Tourette syndrome patients.

Finasteride may help reduce tic severity in male Tourette syndrome patients.

In this study, CD44 expression was absent in alopecia areata-affected scalp, with some patients regaining expression after treatment despite no significant hair regrowth, suggesting involvement in the disease's pathogenesis.

In this study, researchers observed that the combination of hair progenitors and their micro-niche changes every three days in mouse zigzag hair, and disruptions in specific genes affected this rhythm, highlighting the importance of this periodic change for normal hair morphology.

This study found that intracrine androgen signaling via 5α-reductase is essential for optimal endometrial decidualization and vascular development during this process in mice.

This review discusses the shared biological mechanisms between allergy and autoimmunity, emphasizing pruritus as a central symptom in psychophysiological dermatoses, and reports no new clinical results.
