research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research 2015
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
research Autoimmune Diseases and Acquired Von Willebrand Disease in Two Cases of Progeria
Premature aging increases the risk of immune problems and autoimmune diseases.
research Characteristics and Differences in the Antler Velvet Microbiota During Regeneration
The study on sika deer antler velvet during regeneration analyzed microbiota samples from 15 deer at 15 and 30 days post-pedicle casting. It identified 2,659 OTUs, with significant differences in microbial composition between the two stages. The Half group had increased Staphylococcus, Romboutsia_B, and Dietzia, while the Full group had more Atopostipes, Psychrobacter, and Faecousia. These changes were linked to differences in arginine and proline metabolism, suggesting a role in wound healing and tissue regeneration. The study found 1,608 shared OTUs, with 130 unique to the Half group and 921 to the Full group, and noted distinct microbial community separation and metabolic pathway differences, highlighting the microbiota's role in skin regeneration.

BMAL1 controls skin cell growth and UV damage risk, peaking at night.
research Why Some Women Look Young for Their Age
Women look young for their age due to larger lips, less sun damage, and genes that prevent gray hair and wrinkles.
research Keratin 79 Is a PPARA Target That Is Highly Expressed by Liver Damage
Keratin 79 is linked to liver damage and may help diagnose liver diseases.
research Editor's Evaluation: Role of Distinct Fibroblast Lineages and Immune Cells in Dermal Repair Following UV Radiation-Induced Tissue Damage
Different types of sun exposure damage skin cells and immune cells, with chronic exposure leading to more severe and lasting damage.
research Hair Cell Toxicology: With the Help of a Little Fish
Zebrafish larvae are used to study and find treatments for ear cell damage because they are easier to observe and test than mammals.
research Distinct Phenotypic and Genomic Signatures Underlie Contrasting Pathogenic Potential of Staphylococcus Epidermidis Clonal Lineages
Staphylococcus epidermidis A/C strains are more antibiotic-resistant and infection-adapted, while B strains thrive in hair follicles.
