This chapter reviews the skin's structure and its clinical relevance, highlighting connective tissue diseases and the potential for novel treatments like protein, cell, or stem cell transfer, but reports no new findings.

This article reviews clinical and treatment aspects of hyperandrogenism in women, emphasizing the roles of diagnostic practices, combined oral contraceptives, and cyproterone acetate, but introduces no new findings.

This review discusses loose anagen hair syndrome, a benign and self-limited condition predominantly affecting children, and highlights the importance of differentiating it from other hair disorders like telogen effluvium and trichotillomania, but reports no new results.

This study found that horizontally bisected donor hairs can be used to create finer hairlines, with about 46-47% growth reported in transplanted hair shafts and bulbs.

In this study, researchers identified 18 genetic associations with scalp and facial hair traits in Latin Americans, including novel loci for hair greying and balding, with implications for understanding hair evolution.

This article discusses the potential genetic basis of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in women of African ancestry but does not provide new research results.

This article reviews the complexities and challenges in classifying systemic lupus erythematosus and the problematic role of the anti-dsDNA antibody as a biomarker, without presenting new experimental findings.

This study found that Gsdma3 mutations in mice led to thicker skin and longer hair infundibula, possibly by negatively regulating β-catenin expression in the epidermis.

In this study, a mixture of tocopherol acetate, L-menthol, and stevioside was more effective in promoting hair growth in mice compared to tocopherol acetate or L-menthol alone.

This study identified 374 eQTLs in scalp hair follicles associated with genes involved in metabolic, mitotic, immune processes, and responses to steroid hormones, contributing insights into genetic variation and hair traits.

This study found that inhibiting arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase (ALOX12) may enhance hair cuticle maturation by increasing S100A3 protein citrullination and promoting cuticular differentiation in isolated human hair follicles.

This study found that Ca²⁺ signaling and peptidylarginine deiminase enzymes play a crucial role in activating neural stem cells in response to injury in zebrafish, suggesting potential therapeutic targets for CNS injuries and cancer.

This review discusses central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, its similarities to lichen planopilaris, and emphasizes the need for further research due to its underdiagnosis and impact on African-descended women.

This study found that hair with lower levels of keratin associated proteins reduced the foreign body response in mouse subcutaneous implant tests compared to hair with higher keratin levels.

This biographical abstract highlights George Rogers' pioneering contributions to the understanding of keratin molecular structure and keratinisation biochemistry, including the application of electron microscopy to hair ultrastructure and the discovery of enzymes and gene transcription processes relevant to keratin proteins.

This article presents an overview of uncombable hair syndrome, emphasizing its clinical and molecular characteristics and noting systemic manifestations such as neuropsychiatric, ophthalmic, and cardiopulmonary issues.

This review discusses potential causes of alopecia and hair overgrowth in pediatric patients, detailing diagnostic techniques and treatments, but presents no new research findings.

This study found that knock-down of keratin 15 in various cell lines affected cell spreading, morphology, migration, differentiation, and proliferation, suggesting its role in maintaining the stem cell nature of keratinocytes.

This review discusses the cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system's potential role in skin function and resilience against environmental and internal stresses, but does not report new experimental findings.

This review summarizes proposed pathophysiological mechanisms of postpartum depression, highlighting neuroendocrine and neurobiological changes, but reports no new findings and calls for integrated understanding of the disorder.

This review discusses the isolation, structure, and bioactivity of lignans and neolignans from 2016 to mid-2018, reporting no new clinical results but highlighting their potential protective properties against diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration.

This study found that mouse skin can produce and metabolize serotonin and N-acetylserotonin, with activity influenced by location, physiological skin status, cell type, and mouse strain.

This review discusses the role of keratins in maintaining epidermal structure and function and reports no new results; the authors emphasize the lack of rational therapies for skin disorders linked to keratin mutations.

This review discusses genome maintenance mechanisms critical for preventing age-related diseases by preserving stem and progenitor cell potential, but reports no new empirical findings.

This study found that the antiandrogen drug enzalutamide reduced TMPRSS2 levels and significantly decreased SARS-CoV-2 entry and infection in lung cells, supporting further clinical trials for COVID-19 treatment.

This review discusses the effects of valproic acid on immune cell activation and gene expression, potentially influencing infection outcomes and suggesting its promise for autoimmune and hypersensitivity condition management.

This study identified 43 compounds in Platycladi Cacumen, including flavonoids, and found significant chemical variation in flavonoid content across different regions and processed products.

This article reviews various strategies, primarily developed by the Turin University Pharmaceutical Technology group, for increasing entrapment efficiency of hydrophilic molecules in nanoparticulate systems and reports no clinical results.

This study found that patients with polycystic ovary syndrome have reduced heart rate recovery, an exaggerated systolic blood pressure response to exercise, and decreased heart rate variability, implying possible autonomic dysfunction.

This review discusses the potential of plant polyphenols to overcome multidrug resistance in various solid cancers and reports no new experimental results; further research is suggested.
