This study reports the discovery of LX-38, a novel non-steroidal drug candidate that may offer safer treatment for conditions like Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia by avoiding hormonal side effects associated with current therapies.

This study reports the crystallization of the human androgen receptor's ligand-binding domain with nonsteroidal ligands, which may aid in understanding the differences in binding compared to steroidal ligands.

In this study, early prenatal treatment with Minoxidil, a lysyl hydroxylase inhibitor, partly improved cardiac outflow tract septation in Tbx1 mutant mice, suggesting that inhibiting collagen cross-linking may mitigate some effects of Tbx1 mutation associated with DiGeorge syndrome.

This study reports the discovery of LX-38, a new high-affinity non-steroidal antagonist that could provide the therapeutic benefits of current BPH and AGA treatments without the hormonal side effects, utilizing a distinct "Orthogonal T-Stacking" scaffold for binding.

This study found that the protein hairless acts as both a corepressor and coactivator of the vitamin D receptor, influencing gene transcription in a ligand-selective manner.

This review highlights LTBP1 as a critical integrator in disease processes, showing its dual role in cancer progression and suppression, its pathological influence in fibrosis, and its contribution to various disorders, suggesting its potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target.

This study found that nano-sized lipid particles improved the skin accumulation and retention of dexamethasone compared to a base cream, suggesting potential benefits for inflammatory skin disease treatment.

This study found that estrogen, through estrogen receptors, can regulate the expression of the HOXC13 gene involved in hair follicle development, with MLL3 histone methylase playing a collaborative role.

This review explores the role of Panx3 in skeletal formation and discusses its potential in developing new therapies for conditions like osteoarthritis, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study found that the RNA helicase DDX6 is essential for maintaining self-renewal in epidermal progenitor cells by promoting the translation of proliferation regulators and degrading differentiation-inducing mRNAs.

This study found that the medication dyclonine has a potent inhibitory effect on the TRPV3 channel, effectively rescuing cell death and alleviating pruritus symptoms in a mouse model with gain-of-function TRPV3 mutations, suggesting potential for treating skin inflammation.

In these two clinical trials, DS-2325a, a KLK5 inhibitor, was found to be generally safe and well tolerated in healthy volunteers, with mild and non-serious adverse events, suggesting its potential for further development as a treatment for Netherton Syndrome.

This study found that desmosomal cadherin desmoglein 3 loses its rigidity upon Ca2+ removal, regardless of desmosome functional state, suggesting a central role for signaling in hyper-adhesion.

This study reports that the DMI3 gene, essential for nodule formation in legume-rhizobial symbiosis, encodes a calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, highlighting its role in multiple plant symbioses.

This study found that the vitamin D receptor in lampreys, which lack bones and hair, binds 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and may function to induce enzymes for detoxifying substances.

This study examined the structural and biochemical mechanisms of human lipocalin prostaglandin D synthase, detailing substrate and product binding processes at the catalytic site and suggesting potential for drug delivery targeting hydrophobic molecules.

In this study, researchers investigated the role of the ATX-LPA axis in asthma pathogenesis using human and mouse models and highlighted the potential for developing new ATX inhibitors as effective asthma treatments.

This study identified that Eda-A1 unexpectedly induces placode inhibitors dkk4 and lrp4, indicating the importance of tightly regulated signaling for proper ectodermal organ development.

This study found that polycomb-group-mediated repression plays a key role in regulating hair follicle stem cell states and lineage progression by distinct mechanisms in adult mouse skin.

This study validated a protocol for inducing surface ectoderm differentiation from human induced pluripotent stem cells and highlighted the role of TGFβ signaling pathways in this process.

This review discusses the emerging roles of transit-amplifying cells in tissue regeneration and cancer formation, highlighting their significance beyond a mere transitional state in hair follicles and the hematopoietic system.

This study suggests that controlling light exposure can influence cashmere growth by triggering hair follicles to enter their active growth phase sooner, potentially involving the CSDC2 gene as a key regulator.

This study found that transfecting hair follicle stem cells with a PEI-DNA complex expressing hTERT stimulated hair growth in rats by inducing follicle neogenesis and promoting the anagen phase.

This study found that extracellular vesicles derived from mesenchymal stem cells and umbilical cord blood plasma enhanced wound healing and reduced scar formation in mice, suggesting their potential as therapeutic agents for skin repair.

In this study, the expression of certain hair follicle-related genes differed between growth phases in Angora goats, with HOXC13 showing overexpression during the anagen phase, potentially influencing the mohair's shine and texture.

This review details the global mutation patterns of genes associated with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis and highlights potential, yet unproven, treatments like minoxidil and regenerative therapies, reporting no new clinical results.

This review summarizes the application of genome wide association studies and selection signature analyses in sheep and goat breeding in China, highlighting genomic regions that influence traits like reproductive performance and body size.

This review suggests that the inner root sheath of human hair follicles may have broader regulatory roles beyond structural support, potentially impacting processes like folliculogenesis, anagen phase regulation, and immunomodulation.

This study found that SesZen-Bio TM, a proprietary extract from Sesbania grandiflora leaves, increased proliferation of hair cells and hair shaft length in vitro and ex vivo, potentially due to activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling and stem cell differentiation pathways.
