Andrographolide from Andrographis paniculata promotes hair growth and could be a natural treatment for hair loss.

In this case report, researchers described a unique skin lesion in a 55-year-old woman, identifying it as folliculosebaceous cystic hamartoma with an unusual combination of spindle cell lipomatous and neural components, which had not been previously documented in such cases.

Retinoic acids temporarily change skin stem cells to a slower cycle and more differentiated state.

In this study, researchers found that the microRNA profiles of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from different adult cell types are largely similar, although each line exhibits some unique gene expression, distinct from both their cells of origin and embryonic stem cells.

This study observed that dandruff-affected scalp skin has increased T-cell infiltration in the epidermis and a reduction in the hair follicle's physiological immune privilege, particularly in the suprabulbar outer root sheath area, indicating a distinct immune microenvironment compared to healthy scalp.

This review describes bioengineering strategies to mimic the natural cell microenvironment in vitro, emphasizing the novel approach of using cell-synthesized extracellular matrix as a scaffold for engineering functional 3D tissues, while highlighting the limitations of exogenous scaffolds in tissue engineering.

This study found that somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in adult mouse skin exhibit significant plasticity, influenced by epithelial and neural factors, indicating a complex interaction in maintaining homeostasis.

This study observed a high degree of plasticity in somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in mouse skin, finding that both axons and Merkel cells underwent dynamic remodeling, with their interactions influencing axonal branching and maturation.

In this study, researchers observed a high degree of plasticity in somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in adult mouse skin, revealing that both epithelial-neural crosstalk and intrinsic neural mechanisms contribute to axonal patterning and remodeling during epithelial homeostasis.

This study observed that Merkel cells and their associated somatosensory axons in mouse skin exhibit significant plasticity, remodeling dynamically to maintain homeostasis. Axonal branching patterns were notably influenced by Merkel cells, suggesting epithelial-neural interactions play a key role in axonal plasticity and patterning.

In this study, highly dynamic remodeling was observed in mouse somatosensory axons and Merkel cells, indicating that epithelial-neural interactions help maintain homeostatic remodeling, with additional intrinsic neural mechanisms contributing to axonal plasticity.

This study found that a new "bead-jet" printing system for mesenchymal stem cells in Matrigel beads improved skeletal muscle regeneration and skin healing in a high-density, sparse pattern.

This study found that hypoxia increases the proliferation of dermal papilla cells and highlighted the important role of lactate dehydrogenase in this process.

This study found that miR-339-5p negatively regulates loureirin A-induced differentiation of hair follicle stem cells, potentially impacting skin repair and regeneration by inhibiting the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This study introduces a novel in vitro model for clubfoot fibrosis to enable high-throughput drug screening and found that while the model increased collagen deposition, the antifibrotic drug minoxidil effectively inhibited the expression of collagen cross-linking enzymes.

This case report documents a 57-year-old man with nephrotic syndrome linked to recurrent chronic graft-versus-host disease and lupus-like symptoms, with improvement after cyclosporin and steroids; however, he died later from leukemia relapse.

This review explores molecular targets for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and discusses potential advancements in radiopharmaceuticals for targeted radionuclide therapy, reporting no new clinical results.

This study found that soluble factors secreted by ovine dermal papilla cells enhance the aggregative behavior of human dermal papilla cells, potentially improving their follicle-inductive properties for hair replacement therapy.

This study found that while MSC concentration in BMCs correlates with total cell counts, cellularity does not indicate high MSC content.

This review summarizes recent insights into corneal limbal stem cell differentiation and the potential role of progenitor-like cells, but reports no new experimental results.

In this study, researchers found that retinoic acid is crucial for hair follicle stem cell function and tissue regeneration by resolving lineage plasticity, with potential therapeutic implications for hair growth, wound healing, and cancer.

This study found that overexpressing FGF22 in dermal papilla cells enhanced hair follicle stem cell proliferation and viability, while its knockout reduced these attributes, indicating its role in hair follicle regeneration.

In this study on Drosophila embryos, researchers observed that the Slit/Robo signaling pathway is crucial for the collective migration and proper positioning of Posterior Signaling Center cells within the hematopoietic niche, highlighting its role in niche assembly and cellular organization.

Chemotherapy with docetaxel and cisplatin can cause severe low potassium, requiring careful monitoring and treatment.

This study used developing mouse hair follicles to explore early epithelial bud formation, finding that the Rho GTPase regulator ARHGEF3 plays a crucial role in regulating cell fate and cadherin patterning, with knockouts showing disrupted morphology and increased straight hair follicle growth.

This study reported that a novel trilayer electrospinning wound dressing can improve the wound microenvironment and accelerate repair in abdominal wall defects by facilitating directional biofluid transport and reducing inflammation.

This study found that combining Panax notoginseng saponins with bone mesenchymal stem cells significantly enhanced diabetic cutaneous ulcer healing in rats by reducing inflammation and promoting new epidermis formation through specific molecular pathways.

This study found that individuals with heterozygous truncation-type variants in the *DSP* gene exhibit lower skin temperature and higher transepidermal water loss, with specific microscopic skin changes and pseudomonilethrix.
