In this study, researchers found that stress likely triggers symmetrical alopecia in Formosan macaques in Mt. Longevity, Taiwan, with higher stress hormone levels associated with the condition.

This study found that stress is likely the main cause of symmetrical alopecia in Formosan macaques, with higher stress hormone levels observed in affected individuals.

This review summarizes the use of fecal glucocorticoid metabolite analysis to monitor stress across various bear species and reports no new clinical results.

This study developed an all-natural hydrogel that promotes diabetic wound healing by converting pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages to anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages in a simple and biosafe manner.

The authors updated recommendations on diagnosing and treating women's sexual dysfunctions, emphasizing a comprehensive assessment approach, while noting the need for further multidisciplinary research.

This review discusses methotrexate's use in dermatology and its mechanisms, pharmacokinetics, dosing, side effects, interactions, and emphasizes the need for further research into optimizing therapy and predicting adverse events.

This article discusses treatments for male pattern baldness, noting that minoxidil is effective for improving baldness at the scalp vertex in young men, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that human dermal fibroblasts can promote the viability and proliferation of microvascular endothelial cells in vitro, revealing important interactions at play in hair growth.

This review discusses various forensic applications of hair analysis, such as species identification and drug addiction testing, and reports no new study results.

The study introduced an advanced skin model, ImmuSkin-MT, which effectively distinguished between different strengths of skin sensitizers by mimicking the interaction of immune cells in skin tissue.

In this study, TENS of the T6 dermatome over a longer term was explored for its effects on weight, blood pressure, heart rate, and appetite-regulating hormones in obese subjects with moderate obstructive sleep apnea; however, results are not reported in the abstract.

This study found that a high-energy shock wave can increase osteogenic activities in human mesenchymal cells, offering insights into potential therapeutic targets for trauma-induced heterotopic ossification.

Researchers found an RNA transcript that might help control a growth factor linked to tumor development.

This study identified mutations in the FGF5 gene as a cause of extreme eyelash growth in Pakistani families, highlighting a potential target for regulating eyelash growth.

This study found a significant association between reduced FGF13 levels and X-linked congenital generalized hypertrichosis, suggesting FGF13's potential role in hair follicle growth and the hair cycle.

In this study, researchers characterized the FGF5 gene in Chinese Merino sheep, identified a new mRNA splicing variant, FGF5S, and noted its restricted expression in the brain, spleen, and skin.

In this study, researchers found that the evolutionary and structural features of the oFGF5 gene in sheep may influence hair follicle development and hair growth regulation.

This review discusses the applications and research on fibroblast growth factors, including their use in wound healing, diabetes, and cancer, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that zebrafish with a mutation in the GDP-fucose biosynthesis gene exhibited enhanced and faster regeneration of mechanosensory hair cells, implicating the importance of this gene and Notch signalling regulation in hair cell regeneration mechanisms.

This study demonstrated that FGF5s acts as an inhibitor of FGF5 in regulating hair growth cycles in cashmere goat dermal papilla cells.

This study found that Fgf5 mutant mice exhibited longer hair, particularly in males, likely due to a prolonged anagen phase in the hair cycle.

This study found that FGF5-/- rabbits exhibited a significant long hair phenotype by prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting FGF5 acts as a negative regulator of hair growth.
