This study suggests that canonical BMP signaling, particularly involving Smad1 and Smad5, plays a critical role in hair follicle stem cell regulation and hair morphogenesis, with distinct roles from pSmad8.

This study found that foot shock stress prolonged the telogen stage and delayed anagen induction in the hair cycle of non-depilated mice, potentially through stress-induced actions of substance P.

This study found that c-Jun is essential for vitamin D receptor expression, and the vitamin D receptor inhibits c-Jun-dependent cell death through non-classical mechanisms independent of vitamin D3.

This study found that formulating raloxifene in nano-lipid carriers significantly enhanced its permeation and cytotoxicity against cancer cells compared to raw raloxifene.

This study found that chitosan and surface-deacetylated chitin nanofibrils promoted hair growth in mice and increased fibroblast growth factor-7 production in human follicle dermal papilla cells.

Continuous light exposure in rats leads to PCOS-like symptoms and suggests sleep habits might affect the disorder's development.

The study suggests that a 3D culture system using the RAD16-I peptide scaffold can help restore the original phenotype of hair follicle dermal papilla cells and support their osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation.

This study suggests that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells from diabetic mice can enhance wound healing by promoting fibroblast growth, migration, angiogenesis, and differentiation into fibroblasts and endothelial cells.

This study found that the transcription factor Gata6 plays a crucial role in adult mouse hair follicle regeneration by promoting the renewal and preventing DNA damage of rapidly proliferating progenitor cells.

This study found that follicular streamers are mostly present in non-scarring alopecia cases, and tracking their location can improve diagnosis accuracy.

This study found that the loss of Smad4 in keratinocytes reduces Dsg4 expression via disrupted BMP signaling, contributing to hair follicle degeneration and alopecia.

This case report describes a 27-year-old woman with lupus erythematosus whose biopsy findings indicated that lupus panniculitis can mimic alopecia areata, leading to temporary hair loss.

This study reported that sunscreen with SPF50+ provides a high level of DNA protection against UV-induced damage in a reconstituted human epidermis model, comparable to that in skin explants.

This study found that finasteride treatment reduced caspase-1 expression, suggesting that androgens may influence immune processes in the hair cycle of androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that protease nexin-1 mRNA is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and is downregulated by dihydrotestosterone in balding scalp, suggesting a role in male-pattern baldness progression.

Minoxidil reduces lysine hydroxylase in skin cells.

This study observed that Endoglin is crucial for maintaining correct hair follicle cycling and stimulating hair follicle stem cell niches through feedback interactions involving Wnt/β-catenin and Bmp/Smad signaling pathways in a mouse model.

This study demonstrated that AIRE-deficient rats exhibit key symptoms of APECED, making them a relevant model for exploring potential treatments.

This study found that forsythiaside-A, a natural compound from Forsythia suspensa, was more effective than finasteride at preventing apoptosis of hair cells and delaying the catagen phase entry in an androgenic alopecia mouse model.

This study provides evidence that human sweat gland myoepithelial cells contain stem cells capable of self-renewal and differentiating into sweat gland luminal cells.

This review focuses on the various skin symptoms associated with COVID-19 but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers found that deleting Caspase-9 in hair follicle stem cells delayed apoptosis, leading to accelerated wound repair and new hair follicle regeneration by maintaining apoptotic cells as signaling centers.

This study developed lipid-core nanocapsules for encapsulating menthol, improving its solubility and thermal stability, and demonstrated their safety and rapid skin absorption in ex vivo tests, highlighting potential applications for cosmeceuticals.

This study found that excessive heat caused the most significant structural changes in hair from Caucasian and Afro samples, especially when combined with other treatments like bleaching and straightening.

This study found that arctiin, a compound from Arctium lappa, demonstrated protective effects against oxidative stress-induced dysfunction in human hair dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential therapeutic use for alopecia.

In this study, oral administration of Crataegus pinnatifida extract was associated with hair growth promotion in mice by inducing anagen phase and enhancing cell signaling related to hair follicle development.

In this study, a dual recombinase-mediated genetic system showed that cavity macrophages accumulate on the surface of visceral organs during lung and liver injury but do not penetrate or contribute to tissue repair.

This study investigated the use of Minoxidil encapsulated in HA-PLGA nanoparticles for alopecia treatment and found that these nanoparticles efficiently delivered the drug to hair follicle cells without significant cytotoxicity, offering a potential transdermal delivery method for various diseases.

This study describes the anatomy of arrector pili muscles in scalp hair follicular units, proposing a model where a single muscle structure is shared by all follicles within a unit.

In this study, persistent ringworm infections in dairy calves appeared resistant to standard topical treatments and showed a potential risk of spreading to human attendants.
