This study reports that LL-37 treatment enhances cell proliferation, migration, and secretion of regenerative factors in adipose-derived stem cells, potentially promoting hair growth in vivo.

This review discusses the use of hair analysis for examining stress and reproduction hormone levels in wildlife and highlights the need for more comprehensive physiological validations across species.

This paper presents a culturally informed protocol designed to improve the collection of hair samples from African Americans for cortisol measurement, illustrating its application with community-based study data.

In this animal study, administering testosterone alongside a 5α-reductase inhibitor counteracted testosterone's effects on prostate enlargement while preserving its beneficial effects on muscle and bone.

This study found that chronic low-grade inflammation exists independently of excess weight or obesity in women with PCOS, with notable increases in specific cytokines such as IL-9, MCP-3, and MIP-1α.

This study found that in rodent diabetes models, measuring corticosterone levels in new growth hair was more sensitive to hyperglycemia-induced changes than using old hair or serum samples.

In this study, skin manifestations such as hirsutism and acne were prevalent among women with PCOS, highlighting their importance in diagnosis and symptomatology.

This article reviews strategies for serological testing in diagnosing ILD linked to systemic rheumatic diseases and introduces a potential diagnostic algorithm for pulmonologists, while noting further validation is needed.

This study found that hair cortisol concentration is a promising stress indicator in cattle but not in pigs, where external factors and lower cortisol response may interfere with its validity.

This study found that Hirosaki hairless rats experience transient activation of STAT5A in the mammary glands during early lactation, involving O-GlcNAc modification rather than Tyr-phosphorylation.

This study found that acute stress in rats inhibits hair growth, likely through increased cortisol levels and activation of the substance P-mast cell pathway.

This study found that HMGB1 enhanced hair growth by stimulating PGE2 production in human dermal papilla cells, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for alopecia treatment.

This study reported that relocation in police horses was associated with elevated hair cortisol concentrations, possibly suggesting altered welfare due to changed surroundings, and that seasonal variations affected both cortisol levels and hair growth.

This study found that older steers had higher hair cortisol concentrations compared to younger steers, suggesting age affects chronic stress biomarkers in beef cattle.

This study observed that HAP stem cells from the whiskers of young mice near the ear differentiated into heart-muscle cells more efficiently than those from older mice or other whisker locations.

This study observed that high levels of immunoreactive cortisol in the tail hair of captive Asian elephants were often associated with stressful or distinct behavioral events, suggesting its potential for reconstructing their physiological history.

In this study, researchers found that dentin sialoprotein and phosphophoryn are present in rat and mouse hair follicles, suggesting these proteins may play a role in hair follicle development, similar to their role in dentin mineralization.

This study found that regular yoga practice could benefit women with PCOS by improving hormonal balance, mitochondrial health, oxidative stress, and inflammation, while also reducing depression symptoms, suggesting yoga as a supportive therapy for managing PCOS.

This study found that elevated serum AMH levels can be a strong predictor for diagnosing PCOS among women of reproductive age, when used alongside the other Rotterdam criteria.

This paper reviews various causes of alopecia in cancer patients and highlights the importance of understanding these mechanisms for effective management, but reports no new findings.

This study found no significant differences in certain proinflammatory protein levels between patients with alopecia areata and healthy controls but noted a potential association between disease severity and increased atherosclerosis risk.

This study found that women with PCOS have significantly higher prevalence and levels of thyroid autoantibodies, with these elevated levels suggesting a potential independent autoimmune activation associated with PCOS.

Platycodon grandiflorum extracts may help prevent hair loss and fight dandruff.

The authors concluded that establishing and standardizing methods for data collection are crucial to improving PCOS diagnosis and research due to challenges observed in data harmonization across diverse international cohorts.

This study found that forming inclusion complexes of DPCP with HPβCD using the 3D ground mixture method enhances its anti-inflammatory activity at lower doses compared to complexes with β-CD.

Goat hair shows changes in metal levels and stress when goats move from indoors to mountain pastures.

This study observed that women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, particularly those with specific phenotypes, had a significantly higher risk of developing kidney stones compared to healthy controls.

This study found that a hypoxic microenvironment enhanced the proliferation and pluripotency of adipose mesenchymal stem cells, promoting hair follicle formation and upregulating specific growth factors in Arbas Cashmere goats.

This review highlights the challenges and management strategies associated with persistent chemotherapy-induced alopecia, detailing the psychosocial impacts, follicular pathobiology, and available treatments such as scalp cooling and minoxidil, ultimately proposing a clinical algorithm to transform it into a preventable and manageable condition.
