This study analyzes the fine structure and protein distribution in monotreme hairs, finding similarities with other mammals and detailing unique immunocytochemical features in their inner root sheaths.

This review discusses the evidence for using oral medications to treat central serous chorioretinopathy, highlighting eplerenone as having the most support despite a lack of robust efficacy across studies.

This study found that male 5α-reductase 2 knockout mice showed deficits in social dominance behaviors and reduced dopamine receptor binding in a brain region related to social ranking.

This study demonstrated that using a perfusion culture bioreactor and 3D spheroid culture can enhance corneal endothelial cell expansion and support the construction of tissue-engineered corneal endothelial layers in vitro.

In this study, finasteride was found to inhibit the dopaminergic system and reduce open-field behaviors in adolescent male rats by decreasing dopamine levels and related proteins.

This study reported that compounds isolated from Alpinia zerumbet significantly promoted hair cell growth and exhibited anticancer activity in cell cultures, suggesting potential as treatments for alopecia and cancer.

This study found that EDA and EDAR are expressed throughout cashmere goat fetal development and play a critical role in hair follicle formation by influencing gene expression in fibroblasts and epithelial cells.

This study found that α-13′-carboxychromanol significantly accelerated wound healing and improved tissue quality in a mouse model, especially when delivered with bacterial nanocellulose under diabetic conditions.

This retrospective pilot study found that oral tofacitinib was more effective in treating alopecia areata than alopecia universalis, but relapses were common after treatment cessation.

This review characterizes breast implant illness and its autoimmune symptoms, reporting an association between breast implants and autoimmune diseases, with explantation relieving symptoms in over half of patients.

This review summarizes the current knowledge on polycystic ovary syndrome, including its features, diagnosis, and treatment, and highlights the need for further research to fill existing knowledge gaps.

This study found that transient non-lethal levels of endogenous ROS in cultured human hair follicles promoted entry into the growth phase by activating the hair follicle stem cell niche.

This review presents the practice of using hair bioelement analysis to assess nutritional status or environmental exposure, proposing complex interactions and hypotheses regarding depression and autism but reports no new clinical results.

This study found differences in urinary androgen and estrogen concentrations between male pattern baldness patients treated with finasteride and healthy controls, suggesting potential biomarkers for post-finasteride syndrome.

This study found that 11α-hydroxyprogesterone is a potent inhibitor of 11βHSD2 in vitro and may serve as a precursor to unique C11α-hydroxy steroids in prostate cancer tissue.

This study found that etifoxine pretreatment reduced neuroinflammation and improved cognitive function in LPS-induced neuroinflammation in mice, potentially through increased neurosteroid synthesis and reduced apoptosis.

This study observed that expanding regulatory T cells in the skin of mice with alopecia areata did not reverse the condition, indicating that additional immunotherapy may be necessary.

This study developed a method to culture and maintain chicken feather follicles in vitro, preserving structure and biology similar to their in vivo state, though some gene expression was altered.

This review examines studies from 2019-2022 on dietary treatments for skin diseases, highlighting various foods and supplements that may aid in managing conditions like acne, psoriasis, and alopecia areata.

In this study, topical piperonylic acid was found to improve wound healing in mice by activating EGFR and modulating gene expression related to the healing process.

This study found that NNAT is localized in both undifferentiated and differentiated cells across various rat tissues and has cell-specific intracellular localization, suggesting distinct functional roles.

This study provides the first draft of the male Asiatic lion's whole genome, revealing low genomic diversity and highlighting conservation concerns.

This review examines the differences in dermatology practices between Europe and North America, noting that European dermatologists often prioritize evaluating patients' psychosocial factors and utilize nondrug treatments, unlike their North American counterparts.

This study found that γδ T cells play a role in regulating stromal behavior, influencing the composition and vascularity of fibrotic tissues during the foreign body response.

In this study, autologous platelet concentrates and topical steroids similarly reduced lesion size, Thongprasom scale, and pain in oral lichen planus patients, suggesting autologous platelet concentrates as a potential alternative treatment.

This study identified a crucial Gli2-Serpinh1 regulatory axis that regulates fibroblast state transitions during skin wound healing, shedding light on fibroblast heterogeneity and suggesting potential precision regenerative therapies.

This study identified hypericin and berberine as compounds that can support hair growth by enhancing oxytocin receptor expression and acting as an oxytocin receptor agonist, respectively, potentially serving as practical alternatives to oxytocin for treating hair-loss diseases.

This meta-analysis found that autologous cell-based therapies, especially stromal vascular fraction, significantly improved atrophic acne scars over control treatments, enhancing both clinical and patient-reported outcomes.
