This research found that human adipose stem cells maintained their immaturity and potential to differentiate into beige adipocytes in an endothelial growth medium, correlating with increased SOX2 expression linked to beige and brown adipocyte activation.

Melanoma risk tools need improvement, a gene mutation causes a hair disorder that might be treated by managing cell stress, a potential therapy for a skin-ear disorder involves blocking cell channels, skin wrinkling may indicate lung aging regardless of smoking, and oxidative stress might contribute to common baldness.

In this case report, the authors describe green hair discoloration in a patient attributed to the use of selenium sulfide.

This study reported that a Megsin-Cre transgene enables genetic manipulation primarily in skin, forestomach, and esophagus tissues, offering a new tool for studying development and diseases in these areas.

In this study, researchers found that disrupting desmoglein 3 signaling in a mouse model of pemphigus vulgaris activates normally quiescent hair follicle stem cells, compromising their multipotency but prompting a regenerative response that restores stem cell function and structures.

This article outlines a protocol for scanning electron microscopy of murine skin and primary keratinocyte monolayers, providing a guide for sample preparation and examination.

This study identified a homozygous frameshift mutation in the HOXC13 gene associated with pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia in a consanguineous Syrian family, suggesting crucial roles for HOXC13 in hair and nail development.

In this study, researchers reported promising initial results in developing future cosmetic technologies that could transform hair styling by altering hair from within, offering alternatives to current methods.

This study found that, compared to oxidative treatments, reductive perm-waving more severely impacts the intermediate filaments in European human hair, while both treatments alter denaturation kinetics in a first-order manner.

This study found that the expression of the protein SOX2 is associated with the potential for beige adipocyte formation and adipocyte plasticity in both human and mouse models.

This study demonstrates that the transcription factor DLX5 can promote hair follicle stem cell differentiation through regulating the c-MYC/miR-29c-3p/NSD1 axis.

This study introduces a novel method for capturing and digitally rendering the color appearance of physical hair samples using deep neural networks.

This study developed new label-free imaging methods to analyze human hair, identifying distinct chemical environments within cuticle layers and changes in hair structure caused by depilatories, while showing that the treatments tested did not significantly affect skin cell differentiation or proliferation.

This study found that keratin filament networks in SG1 cells of mice undergo dynamic changes during cornification, impacting the barrier function of the stratum corneum.

This study found that desmocollin 1 is crucial for strong adhesion and barrier maintenance in the mouse epidermis, with its absence leading to skin and hair issues resembling chronic dermatitis.

This study found that patients with scalp seborrheic dermatitis exhibited distinct allergy sensitization patterns linked to skin barrier dysfunction and changes in scalp microbiota, suggesting the importance of context in interpreting patch test reactivity.

This study identified Sciellin, a new protein precursor to the cornified envelope in keratinocytes, with unique solubility properties hinting at its potential role in envelope assembly.

Tissue stiffness affects sweat gland development by guiding cell differentiation through specific signals.

This review discusses scalp skin disorders, their overlapping symptoms, diagnostic techniques, and treatment strategies, emphasizing the importance of accurate differential diagnosis, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, hair shafts from trichothiodystrophy patients with ERCC2 mutations revealed abnormal cuticle structures and protein imbalances compared to normal hair shafts.

In this study, researchers identified a gene expression pre-pattern and implicated the Wnt inhibitor Dickkopf 4 in the formation of color patterns in domestic cat embryos.

This study found that the HoxC gene cluster plays a critical role in the development of ectodermal organs, including hair and nails, with mammalian-specific enhancers increasing transcription levels during development.

This study found that washing hair after reduction in a permanent waving process allows for significant reformation of disulfide cross-links, enhancing the strength and elasticity of hair fibers.

This study explores the complex and not yet fully understood causes of premature hair greying, noting genetic factors such as Pax3 and MITE genes, potential defects in melanin transfer, and associations with certain syndromes, while stating that effective treatments are currently lacking.

This study describes a modified reduction-osmication method for staining human scalp hair that improves reagent penetration and visualization of hair cortex features using transmission electron microscopy.
