This study discovered that a specific G to C mutation in the ornithine aminotransferase gene is linked to the retarded hair growth phenotype in mice and may serve as a model for human gyrate atrophy.

In this review, the researchers detailed how the p63 transcription factor influences epithelial stem cell activities such as self-renewal, differentiation, and proliferation, highlighting the role of TAp63 and ΔNp63 isoforms in both normal tissue development and cancer pathogenesis.

This study suggests that activating the hexosamine pathway may enhance skin homeostasis, potentially increasing hair follicle stem cells and modifying extracellular matrix components like hyaluronic acid in vitro.

This study suggests that the activation of box A in mesenchymal cell models may enhance stem cell properties, increasing the expression of stemness markers like OCT4, NANOG, and SOX2.

In this study, researchers developed a novel method using ultrasound stimulation and a hydrogel delivery system to enhance the regenerative effects of stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles on severe skin injuries, resulting in improved healing and hair follicle regeneration in a mouse model.

This study demonstrates that a single exposure to GHB during a sexual assault can be detected by analyzing hair segments collected about one month after the incident.

This study found that engineered skin substitutes made with skin-derived precursors and epidermal stem cells can regenerate hair follicles after grafting into nude mice.

A specific gene variant is linked to heart disease, increased heart muscle, curly hair, and thick skin on palms and soles.

This study suggests that GATA6 is a key regulator of the upper pilo-sebaceous unit homeostasis and differentiation in human skin.

Fungi-produced compounds can change plant root growth.

This article discusses the importance of preparing and storing human hair follicle grafts during micrograft transplantation in hair restoration surgery and reports no new research findings.

This study synthesized and compared single-ion doped silicate bioactive glass nanoparticles for tissue repair, finding that BSr and BCe were most effective in accelerating wound healing and restoring vasculature, with BSr particularly reducing inflammation and BCo enhancing hair follicle regeneration but with limited biosafety window.

In this case report, a three-generation family with Gorlin-Goltz syndrome showed a heterozygous PTCH1 splice-donor variant associated with the disease, and two affected relatives benefited from individualized, side-effect-guided dosing of the drug sonidegib, experiencing regression of basal cell carcinoma lesions.

In a study on female SD rats, the authors found that RADA16-1 short-peptide nano-fiber gel scaffolds improved burn wound healing, hair follicle growth, hair growth length, and expression of bFGF and EGF compared to a NaCl control.

In this study, individuals with a c.1072C > T mutation in the EDAR gene showed more hair shaft deformations compared to non-mutation carriers, highlighting EDAR's role in hair follicle development.

This study reported that fermented grapeseed oil may enhance hair permeability and improve strength and color retention in chemically treated hair compared to regular grapeseed or silicone oils.

This study found that progesterone increased the survival of newborn neurons and enhanced spatial learning and memory in adult male mice, independent of neuron production changes.

In this study, researchers modified an acellular scaffold with different concentrations of eggshell membrane protein, finding that a 5% concentration effectively enhanced tissue regeneration in mice with excisional wounds, achieving complete healing within 14 days without causing immunogenicity or inflammation.

This study found that GPT-4o demonstrated high concordance with in-person and image-based provider assessments in generating SALT scores for alopecia areata, suggesting its potential as an adjunct tool in clinical practice for automating these assessments.

This letter to the editor presents a case of non-Herlitz junctional epidermolysis bullosa associated with a COL17A1 mutation and reports no new clinical findings.

A specific gene mutation (Y449H in K10) was found in a patient with severe skin disorder.

This study reported that the treatment of hair with glyoxylic acid straighteners causes major conformational changes within the hair fiber due to interactions between carbonyl and keratin components.

This study identified and characterized a gene called 4C32, which is expressed in the periderm of embryonic mouse skin and has a structure similar to keratin-associated proteins.

This study identified a 505-bp indel variant in the FGF5 gene associated with cashmere growth in goats, which may serve as a molecular marker in cashmere goat breeding programs.

This review discusses the role of LGR4 in tumors, highlighting its involvement in cancer progression, metastasis, and chemotherapy resistance, as well as its regulatory effects on tumor stem cell self-renewal and stem cell characteristics, based on multiple recent studies.
