This study found that while a tip-focused calcium gradient influences localized growth in root hairs and pollen tubes, it is not the primary determinant of growth direction in root hairs of Arabidopsis thaliana.

This review discusses the potential roles of calcium in the regulation of pluripotent and tissue-specific stem cells but reports no new experimental results, highlighting areas for future research.

This study concluded that the inner root sheath inhibits the expression of certain differentiation markers in hair bulbs, with calcium-induced changes paralleling those seen in hair follicle mid-segments.

This study used Cisd2 knockout mice models and found that these mice display premature aging characteristics and an increase in dysfunctional neutrophils, suggesting Cisd2's role in calcium homeostasis and neutrophil function via interactions with Calnexin and SERCA.

In this study, a novel mutation in the glucocorticoid receptor gene was identified in a young woman, impairing glucocorticoid signaling and leading to generalized glucocorticoid resistance.

In this study, researchers found that ligand homodimerization controls the receptor binding specificity of the FGF9 subfamily, preventing off-target activation of FGFR "b" isoforms.

This review discusses how vitamin D and calcium signaling are essential for wound healing by activating epidermal and hair follicle stem cells, noting that deficiencies may lead to delayed or chronic wounds.

This study found that finasteride effectively prevented testosterone-induced kidney stone formation in renal tubular cells by reducing COM crystal adhesion and crystallization.

This study found that several newly synthesized dihydrobenzopyran compounds inhibited insulin secretion and had vasorelaxant activity, with some more potent than reference KATP channel activators, though compound 21 functioned as a Ca2+ entry blocker.

In this study, a novel VDR gene mutation was identified in a child with HVDRR, and the researchers observed that high-dose intravenous calcium therapy led to significant and sustained improvement in rickets symptoms.

This study found that multiple ion channel modulators, used here at clinical concentrations, increased intracellular calcium release in prostate and breast cancer cell lines.

This review highlights LTBP1 as a critical integrator in disease processes, showing its dual role in cancer progression and suppression, its pathological influence in fibrosis, and its contribution to various disorders, suggesting its potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target.

This review discusses the relationship between SHBG, NAFLD, and PCOS and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight low hepatic SHBG production as potentially significant in PCOS pathogenesis.

This study found that mouse FLRG protein, a secreted glycoprotein, is expressed in certain tissues and plays a role distinct from follistatin during wound healing, suggesting different functions in vivo.

This study found that SK2 channels in sensory terminals of rat muscle spindles and hair follicles may play a crucial role in modulating mechanosensory transduction by influencing receptor potentials through Ca2+-activated K+ currents.

In this study, low-level laser therapy significantly improved the mechanical strength of bone at tooth extraction sites in rats, while neither platelet-rich plasma alone nor combined with laser affected mechanical strength or calcium content.

In this study, pantothenic acid at 20 μg/ml was observed to promote dermal papilla cell proliferation and migration, likely through up-regulation of ID3 and inhibition of Notch signaling.

In this study, OCT showed strong nuclear binding in certain skin cells, suggesting similar genomic effects to vitamin D with potential therapeutic benefits due to its lower calcaemic effect.

In a case study of vitamin D-dependent rickets type 2A, researchers observed that while active vitamin D treatment failed to improve bone and laboratory abnormalities, oral calcium lactate significantly ameliorated these issues, although skin and hair problems remained unresponsive.

This research highlights that engineered mice lacking the vitamin D receptor show multiple health issues similar to human vitamin D deficiency, underscoring the widespread impacts of the vitamin D endocrine system.

This minireview discusses a proposed model of the vitamin D receptor that explains how 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 can mediate both genomic and rapid responses through different ligand shapes and cellular locations, without presenting new research findings.

This study found that inhibiting arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase (ALOX12) may enhance hair cuticle maturation by increasing S100A3 protein citrullination and promoting cuticular differentiation in isolated human hair follicles.

This review summarizes the proposed model that describes how different shapes of 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 ligands interact with the vitamin D receptor to mediate genomic and rapid responses in cells.

This study found that L-type channel blockers can induce hair growth in Timothy syndrome by overcoming delays in anagen phase, suggesting a potential therapeutic role for tissue regeneration.

This study concluded that CNGC14 is a calcium-permeable channel crucial for polarized tip growth in Arabidopsis root hairs, but other channels may also influence the observed calcium influx.

AGD1 is important for root hair development in Arabidopsis, working with phosphoinositide signaling and the actin cytoskeleton.

This article reviews current hair loss treatments, proposing a hypothesis that a combination of drugs, supplements, and therapies may effectively manage hair loss, but presents no new clinical results.

This article discusses how nutritional and environmental factors, along with antioxidant supplementation, may improve hair growth by mitigating the effects of androgens and reports no new clinical results.
