This review summarizes discussions from a 2010 stem cell biology meeting, covering the origin, behavior, and therapeutic potential of pluripotent and multipotent stem cells, without reporting new experimental findings.

In this study, re-activating SOX9 in adult epidermal stem cells led to a fate switch towards hair follicle stem cell identity, with altered chromatin dynamics and oncogenic activation, contributing insights into developmental processes and cancer pathways.

This study found considerable variation in hair shaft proteomic profiles among Caucasian, African-American, Kenyan, and Korean subjects, with individual and site-specific differences observed.

This study used proteomic profiling to reveal significant individual and site-specific differences in human hair shaft proteins, which may improve the differentiation of hair based on ethnic origin and individual identity.

In this study, researchers found that Elastic Net DNA methylation clocks are not accurate for distinguishing between individuals or identifying health markers, but measuring biological "noise" in stable cytosines may serve as a potential biomarker of aging and disease.

This review explores potential new roles for Merkel cells, including involvement in magnetoreception, fingerprint formation, and transmitting environmental information, but reports no experimental results.

This study suggests that testosterone therapy in AFAB individuals may modify the methylation of the ESR2 promoter, with changes influenced by factors like total testosterone levels and age.

The authors concluded that pattern hair loss is a complex condition with limited treatment efficacy and two FDA-approved drugs, finasteride and minoxidil, to slow its progression.

This study found that the maternal nutritional status during early pregnancy significantly influenced epigenetic changes in offspring, as maternal diet altered DNA methylation at human metastable epialleles.
