In this laboratory study, researchers developed and tested two in vitro models to simulate atopic dermatitis using HaCaT cells, finding that azithromycin displayed epithelial-strengthening properties in one model, potentially offering insights for future research on skin disease interventions.

This study found that a nonsense mutation in the Cst6 gene of mice leads to severe skin and hair abnormalities, suggesting that cystatin M/E is crucial for epidermal function and viability.

In this study, researchers used the CRISPR/Cas9 system to edit the FGF5 gene in Dorper sheep, observing increased density and finer wool, along with changes in cortisol levels and antioxidant enzyme activity linked to hair follicle development.

Scientists made glow-in-the-dark dots from human hair that can detect iron, prevent counterfeiting, and reveal fingerprints.

This study found that stimulating the olfactory receptor OR2A4/7 with cyclohexyl salicylate promoted human hair growth and increased progeny of hair follicle epithelial stem cells in an ex vivo setting.

This study found that zebrafish with a mutation in the GDP-fucose biosynthesis gene exhibited enhanced and faster regeneration of mechanosensory hair cells, implicating the importance of this gene and Notch signalling regulation in hair cell regeneration mechanisms.

This study found that the heat shock cognate protein Hsc70 was differentially expressed by dihydrotestosterone treatment in SV40-transformed dermal papilla cells, suggesting its involvement in androgen action on these cells.

This study found that contrast enhanced phototrichogram (CE-PTG) significantly improved detection of various hair types and growth stages in androgenetic alopecia compared to standard PTG and was comparable to biopsy analysis.

This study identified several genes highly expressed in germ-line stem cells that are also common in hematopoietic stem cells, potentially aiding the exploration of fundamental stem cell commonalities.

This study established a mouse model for Cushing's syndrome due to a specific Crh mutation, which may help explore the effects of glucocorticoid excess and evaluate treatments for corticosteroid-induced osteoporosis.

This study found that deleting Stim1 and Stim2 in mature T regulatory cells disrupts Ca 2+ signaling, preventing their differentiation and leading to severe autoimmune disorders in mice.

This study found that variations in the androgen receptor gene influenced memory function in women, with GGN repeat polymorphisms significantly affecting logical memory performance only in females.

This study developed a new method to analyze Cantú syndrome mutations in KATP channels, finding that while Kir6.1 mutations increase sensitivity to potassium channel openers, SUR2B mutations show reduced sensitivity, but both result in marked hyperpolarization compared to wild-type channels under basal conditions.

This study identified 4,942 differentially expressed genes and key candidate genes involved in the hair follicle development and cashmere quality differences between Jiangnan and Changthangi goats, highlighting potential molecular targets for genetic improvement of cashmere goats.

In this study, RNA-sequencing identified differentially expressed genes, including FGF5, FGFR1, and RRAS, that affect the hair follicle growth cycle in Inner Mongolian Cashmere goats.

This study reported that Gagamchengyoung-tang may reduce scalp disorder and increase hair density in alopecia patients with a febrile tendency.

The researchers investigated a Maine Coon cat with suspected classical Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and discovered a heterozygous deletion in the COL5A1 gene, underscoring the value of whole-genome sequencing for precise veterinary diagnostics.

In this study, transiently activating the sonic hedgehog signaling pathway in chickens transformed reticulate scales on the feet into feathers comparable to body feathers, without ongoing treatment, suggesting this pathway affects the diversity of bird skin appendages.

In this study, researchers developed a mouse model of scarring alopecia and observed significant reductions in CD200R expression in affected skin, potentially linking this signaling pathway to immune attacks on hair follicles and suggesting new treatment targets for scarring hair loss.

This study found that LGR5 may play a significant role in maintaining brain cancer stem-like cells and is associated with glioma progression and poor outcomes.

This article reviews trichoscopic signs of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, including exclamation marks, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that hair follicle gene expression varies between Angus and Brahman cattle and responds to growth-promoting treatments, which may reflect breed differences in adaptability to cold stress.

In this study, chick embryo extract enhanced neuronal differentiation and trophic factor expression in rat hair follicle stem cells, suggesting potential improvements for stem cell therapies in neurodegenerative diseases.

This study found that abnormal liver and kidney copper metabolism in Br females had no clinical effects, whereas defective brain copper metabolism in Br males was clinically significant.

This study reported that an HS-associated NCSTN mutation in iPSC-derived skin organoids led to altered hair follicle stem cell differentiation and increased expression of proteins linked to HS inflammation.

This study suggests that inactivation of β-catenin is necessary for chick retina regeneration, as it allows cells to enter the cell cycle during injury and promotes regeneration without needing FGF2.

This study found that chromosomal microarray analysis identified copy number variations in 12% of patients with dysmorphic features and congenital anomalies, demonstrating its potential as a diagnostic tool, especially for rare CNVs and immune deficiency linked to the deletion of CTLA4.

This case report identifies a previously undocumented nonsense mutation in DCAF17 in a Chinese patient with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, inherited from consanguineous parents.

This study found that SHJH hr mice, with a Hairless gene mutation, exhibit accelerated skin aging potentially due to poor antioxidative protection, highlighting the Hr gene's role in skin aging.
