This study found that PBMCsec has anti-fibrotic effects on mouse and human skin scars by regulating pro-fibrotic gene expression and inhibiting myofibroblast differentiation and elastic fiber breakdown.

This study found that male and female hair specimens show structural differences, with female hair having a brown color at the distal end and smooth surface texture, while male hair is completely black and shows surface irregularities; these differences may aid forensic analysis.

This study identified a proliferative intermediate transcriptional state associated with the transition from secondary hair germ cells to lower hair follicle-associated cells during early hair follicle regeneration in mice.

This review highlights how cyclodextrin-polysaccharide hybrids can advance drug delivery and environmental cleanup by improving the solubility and stability of hydrophobic molecules, serving as promising platforms for biomedical applications and efficient sorbents for wastewater treatment.

This study found that modifying biphasic calcium phosphate/poly(methyl methacrylate) bone cement with human hair keratin improves its hydrophilicity, mechanical properties, and supports bone repair in rats, indicating potential for orthopedic applications.

This review summarizes how single-cell omics technologies have advanced understanding of cellular regulatory programs in sheep and goats, but highlights limitations in genomic annotation and integration with population genetics for molecular breeding.

This study found that in stretch-mediated tissue expansion, fibroblasts adopt an embryonic-like, low-collagen state that enhances epidermal stem cell renewal, supporting coordinated skin expansion crucial for reconstructive surgeries.

This study found that the DKK3-CKAP4 signaling axis is involved in fibroimmune remodeling in androgenetic alopecia and that targeting this pathway may restore a regenerative hair follicle environment, offering a potential therapeutic strategy to counteract hair follicle miniaturization.

This study observed that the loss of H3K9me3, via the ablation of Suv39h1, Suv39h2, and Setdb1 in embryonic mouse epidermis, disrupts skin development processes such as keratinocyte differentiation and hair follicle formation, highlighting H3K9me3's crucial role in epidermal morphogenesis.

This case study describes a 34-year-old male developing painful inflammatory scalp nodules post-scalp microinfusion of medication. The findings suggest that repeated microtrauma or bacterial colonization might trigger dissecting cellulitis in susceptible individuals, with exogenous testosterone as a potential modifier, not a direct cause.

In this study, researchers identified that keloid fibroblasts respond to neurotransmitters from catecholaminergic nerves by producing bone matrix proteins, mediated by β1-adrenergic receptor activation, leading to fibro-osseous reprogramming; blocking this signaling in a rodent model prevented the development of keloid-like pathology.

In this study, researchers observed that atopic dermatitis may alter the appearance of allergic patch test reactions, demonstrating specific patterns like perifollicular erythema and yellowish areas that could aid in interpreting patch tests using dermoscopy, particularly in ambiguous cases.

This research observed that diabetes impairs wound healing in mice by disrupting key mechanotransduction pathways in fibroblasts, which are crucial for the healing process. The study also suggests transcriptomic changes could inform future diabetic wound repair therapies.

This study found that hair manganese levels did not vary by acute coronary syndrome or stable coronary artery disease severity, but a modest, non-significant correlation with body mass index suggests a potential link between manganese homeostasis and cardiometabolic status that warrants further investigation.

In this laboratory study, researchers observed that mouse vascular endothelial cells exhibit dynamic changes after exposure to ionizing radiation, including a transient endothelial subpopulation that facilitates vascular-epidermal communication and skin repair, with shifting roles in angiogenesis and immune surveillance over time.

This study found that late embryonic skin injuries can regenerate multiple tissue types, but this ability is hindered postnatally due to fibroblast-driven hyperinnervation, which can be mitigated to enable regeneration.

In this study, researchers created a detailed human skin cell atlas by analyzing over 700,000 cells, finding that disrupted communication among specific immune and stromal cell subsets may play a key role in initiating and sustaining chronic skin inflammation in atopic dermatitis.

This review highlights the potential of microalgae as sustainable sources for nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals, emphasizing their applications in functional foods, dietary supplements, and cosmetics for roles such as anti-aging and photoprotection in alignment with sustainability principles.

This case report describes a rare and severe systemic reaction to red tattoo ink, including erythroderma, alopecia universalis, anhidrosis, and vitiligo, highlighting significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.

This study found that acute stress can cause rapid hair loss by triggering necrosis in hair follicle cells and initiating autoimmunity, revealing a mechanism where stress-induced nerve activity leads to tissue damage and immune system activation.

This study found that regulatory T cells accumulate in hair follicle epithelium via the Cxcr4-Cxcl12 axis, partially influenced by glucocorticoid receptor signaling, promoting hair regeneration; similar mechanisms were observed in human and murine skin.

This study reports that PADI4, an enzyme involved in posttranslational protein modifications, regulates progenitor cell transitions in hair follicle development by repressing transcription and interacting with translational and ribosomal processes.

In this study, chitosan nanoparticles loaded with phenobarbital were the most effective in promoting hair regrowth and quality in a mouse model of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, suggesting potential for preventing hair loss in cancer patients.

This study found that blocking the chemokine CXCL12 in a testosterone-induced mouse model of androgenetic alopecia restored hair regeneration and reduced fibrosis and immune alterations.

This study reported that exosomes derived from human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSC-exo) accelerated hair growth in androgenetic alopecia mice by enhancing signals between hair follicle cells and improving cellular environments, particularly protecting against dihydrotestosterone-induced damage via Wnt/β-catenin signaling.

This study highlighted the effectiveness of HT-scCAT-seq as a tool for understanding gene regulation in single cells, offering insights into embryonic skin development and proposing a framework for exploring regulatory mechanisms in various biological and disease contexts.

This study found that dietary serine levels influence hair follicle stem cells' ability to balance hair regeneration and wound repair, offering insights for potential interventions to accelerate wound healing.

This review explores the potential of metal nanoparticles as innovative treatments for alopecia, highlighting their effectiveness in promoting hair regrowth, enhancing drug delivery, and modulating gene expression while also assessing the related experimental methodologies and regulatory considerations.

The researchers monitored various pollutants in real cosmetics industry wastewater and reported high removal efficiencies for parameters like Chemical Oxygen Demand and heavy metals through coagulation-flocculation, yet suggested that more effective COD treatment alternatives are necessary to better protect the environment and human health.

In this study on mice, elevated IGF-1 levels in the skin were linked to premature aging of hair follicles, but interventions like reducing IGF-1 or using senolytic treatments helped restore stem cell health and counteract aging effects.
