In this study, CD4+ non-haematopoietic, skin-resident stem cell-like populations were identified in both murine and human epidermis, suggesting they may serve as potential basal cell carcinoma precursors.

This study found that in mice, knockout of Rac1 and Rac3 in keratinocytes led to reduced white adipose tissue and revealed Rac-dependent paracrine pathways affecting pre-adipocyte differentiation.

PRP might help with hair growth and skin rejuvenation, but more research is needed to prove its effectiveness.

In this study, researchers used single-cell RNA sequencing to map the hair follicle microenvironment in fine-wool sheep, identifying specific cell types and gene expressions that influence wool fiber diameter, with dermal papilla cells playing a significant role in hair follicle development.

This study used integrated single-cell chromatin and transcriptomic analyses in developing mouse skin to uncover gene networks involved in skin lineage specification and identified Mef2c+ upper fibroblasts as potential precursors to certain muscle-like structures, with cross-species findings in human skin.

In this study, researchers found that sesamin, a component of sesamum, modulated the AR-MAPK-Wnt signaling pathway in DHT-stimulated HaCaT keratinocytes, demonstrating potential multi-target activity against molecular events in androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, researchers used a mouse model to identify an adipocyte-to-fibroblast conversion pathway that promotes mast-cell recruitment and dermal fibrosis in atopic dermatitis, suggesting a potential therapeutic approach to block this process and reduce inflammation and fibrosis.

This study investigated the mechanisms of Platycladi Cacumen in treating androgenetic alopecia, identifying potential key components and targets but found no specific targets or regulatory mechanisms.

This study identified important lncRNAs and genes associated with cashmere shedding in goats and explored their regulatory interactions, providing insights into the molecular mechanisms that may underlie this phenomenon.

This study found that human dermal stem/progenitor cells demonstrated greater proliferation and differentiation potential than hair follicle dermal papilla cells, which showed increased expression of hair regeneration markers.

In this study on mice, researchers observed that dermal white adipose tissue (dWAT) plays a key role in regulating skin inflammation and tissue repair; however, reduced expression of certain cytokines in obese mice may hinder these processes, indicating potential metabolic disruptions in dWAT during inflammation.

This study suggests that targeting the increased expression of SIX1 in systemic sclerosis may be a viable strategy for addressing dermal fibrosis.

This study found that mature adipocytes can dedifferentiate into fibroblast-like cells, driven by PDGF and TGFβ signaling, which may play a role in wound repair and fibrosis.

This narrative review explores the potential influence of brown adipose tissue on polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new experimental findings.

This review highlights the significance of animal fibers, examining the molecular mechanisms influencing hair follicle development and their impact on fiber quality and quantity, with a focus on studies involving Angora and cashmere goats.

This study concluded that mesenchymal stem cells from adipose tissue harvested using laser-assisted liposuction with selective photo-stimulation are as effective and low-risk for cell therapy as those obtained through conventional liposuction, based on their differentiation potential, cellular proliferation, and cytokine expression.

The study found that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells obtained via laser-assisted liposuction with selective photo-stimulation are comparable in differentiation potential and tumorigenic risk to those from conventional liposuction for cell therapy applications.

This study developed a new analytical method to identify a wide range of endocrine disrupting compounds in full-term amniotic fluid, revealing diverse substances with potential endocrine activity.

This study found that PRL-1-overexpressing PD-MSCs reduced adipogenesis in orbital fibroblasts from Graves' ophthalmopathy patients by secreting IGFBPs and modulating the FAK pathway.

This review outlines the various fibroblast subsets in the skin dermis, their origins, and their influence on epidermal stem cell behavior, highlighting the role of the local dermal niche in stem cell plasticity.

This study showed that regulation of adipose androgen generation via AKR1C3 may contribute to a cycle of hyperinsulinaemia and lipid accumulation in women with PCOS.

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.

This study observed that stem cells from the hair follicle dermis share similarities with bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells and have potential to form neural-like cells under specific conditions.

In this clinical trial, the topical agent AP-FHG0604T significantly increased hair counts and growth rates in women with female pattern hair loss compared to a placebo, though some reported mild local irritation.

In this case report, a novel missense mutation c.1360G>C (p.Ala454Pro) in the MBTPS2 gene was identified in a boy with typical IFAP syndrome and severe atopic features, although no phenotype/genotype correlation was established.

In this study, inactivating the TAF4 subunit of transcription factor TFIID in mouse epidermis disrupted gene expression linked to skin and hair function, and increased tumor risk.

Some patients on anti-TNF drugs experience a type of hair loss called TAIAPA.

In this study, researchers identified a recurrent MBTPS2 splice-site variant as a mutational hotspot in IFAP syndrome across diverse families, with phenotype severity suggesting the influence of additional modifiers.

This review discusses fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution and highlights diagnostic features, but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the value of trichoscopy and histology in diagnosis.
