Hair growth is influenced by interactions between skin layers, growth factors, and hormones, but the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.

This study suggests that Ptprq in the hair bundles may exist as multiple isoforms that are differentially expressed throughout development and affect the organization of stereocilia in the chick inner ear.

This case report describes a 68-year-old woman with metastatic breast cancer who experienced significant improvement in visual acuity after stopping tamoxifen, which was associated with bilateral optic neuropathies.

This paper presents two cases of rare intraorbital ophthalmic artery aneurysms associated with arteriovenous malformations and discusses their clinical presentation, pathogenesis, and management, but reports no new clinical outcomes.

This report describes the clinical and histopathological features of lipoid proteinosis in a brother and sister with lid lesions, highlighting the importance of recognizing such lesions for diagnosis.

In this case report, the authors suggest an association between prolonged finasteride use and anterior subcapsular cataracts, as observed in a 43-year-old man, marking the first reported instance.

This report documents the second known case of Castleman's disease in the lacrimal gland, diagnosed in an 84-year-old woman through histological examination after excising a left upper lid mass.

This case report details a 65-year-old woman who developed malignant melanoma in her right eye socket following previous eye trauma, treated by orbital exenteration.

This case report indicates that retinoblastoma can occur in a microphthalmic eye and recommends using multiple imaging techniques due to potential differences in calcification visibility.

This study found that hair follicles in mice and humans can convert wound-related myofibroblasts into adipocytes, suggesting a potential pathway to reduce scar formation by activating BMP signaling.

This study found that PM2.5 exposure induced oxidative stress in human keratinocytes and mouse skin, causing cellular damage, which was mitigated by the antioxidant N-acetyl cysteine.

This review discusses melatonin's potential in dermatology, highlighting its antioxidative, immunomodulatory, and DNA repair properties, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Cutl1 mutant mice experienced retarded lung differentiation and abnormal hair follicle morphogenesis, indicating the vital role of CDP in lung development and hair follicle cell-lineage specification.

This study found that telocytes are present in the human dermis, suggesting a potential role in skin homeostasis, remodeling, regeneration, and repair.

This study reviews the evolution and modifications of microneedle drug delivery systems, initially designed for percutaneous use, now expanded for targeting a variety of tissues and organs such as ocular, oral mucosal, and gastrointestinal, suggesting widespread future applicability.

This study found that FLCN deficiency in mice muscles led to increased mitochondrial biogenesis and a metabolic shift towards oxidative phosphorylation, with a similar advantage observed in FLCN-null kidney cancer cells.

This review highlights the potential of extracellular vesicle-based therapies for treating various diseases, but it also notes challenges like the lack of regulatory guidelines that hinder their clinical development.

This review explores the mechanisms of hair cell death due to factors like noise, ototoxic drugs, and aging and reports no conclusive clinical results; ongoing research may eventually enable preventive treatments for hearing loss.

This review discusses the potential of adipose-derived tissue components like nanofat and stem cells for aesthetic rejuvenation, covering their use in hair growth, scar reduction, and more, without reporting new clinical results.

This review discusses the cutaneous manifestations associated with HIV infection, highlighting that these skin conditions often present atypically and are more severe compared to those in non-HIV-infected individuals; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that the hairless gene in mice has a more extensive role in development than previously thought, as indicated by its expression in various tissues and associated abnormalities in hr/hr mutants.

This study suggests that 5α-reduced glucocorticoids may have anti-inflammatory potential and could serve as biomarkers for liver inflammation in metabolic disease, with implications for drug development.

This review highlights that children with adrenal disorders may experience neurological and psychiatric symptoms, with potential long-term cognitive and behavioral effects from excess glucocorticoids.

This review discusses the potential of repeated low-level red-light therapy to inhibit myopia progression through metabolic effects, highlighting its molecular and cellular impact, but reports no new clinical results.

This review explores the potential of using genetically-manipulated stem cells as both therapeutic agents and gene delivery vehicles for enhanced wound regeneration, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the potential of organoids in modeling COVID-19 disease and developing therapies, without reporting new results, and highlights opportunities and challenges in their application for research.

This study suggests that the absence of alpha5(IV)/alpha6(IV) chains in certain subepidermal basement membrane spots may relate to interactions with melanocytes in human skin.

This study found that procyanidin B-3, a compound isolated from barley extract, may promote hair growth by enhancing hair epithelial cell growth and counteracting TGF-β1's growth-inhibiting effects in vitro and in vivo.

This study found that deleting the CD98hc protein in mouse skin impairs wound healing and homeostasis, resembling aging effects, due to disrupted integrin signaling pathways.

This study found that cepharanthine can inhibit gastric cancer cell activity by inducing oxidative stress and altering energy metabolism, suggesting its potential for gastric cancer treatment.
