This study suggests that finasteride treatment in male rats can lead to changes in liver carbohydrate metabolism and may result in metabolic disruptions and liver steatosis in their offspring.

This study found that in mouse skin, the activation of stem/progenitor cells is synchronized across different niches during growth, with the glutamate transporter SLC1A3 playing a crucial role in this process.

In this study, researchers identified the PLD-mGluR protein in primary mechanosensory terminals as the homomeric GluK2 kainate receptor, functioning purely metabotropically, which is suggested to be common to various sensory endings.

This study found that using a hair-hardener improved hair thickness, amino acid content, surface condition, tensile strength, and wave efficiency without causing any allergic reactions in participants.

This study used molecular docking simulations to identify approved drugs, including Bedaquiline and Telmisartan, with potential to treat Onchocerca volvulus infections by inhibiting key protein targets, suggesting these drugs could be repurposed for onchocerciasis treatment with further validation.

This paper describes a case of epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy associated with a novel PLEC mutation and diffuse alopecia, highlighting a potential genetic link that remains uncertain.

This study found that schizophrenia-derived neurons exhibited impaired differentiation and mitochondrial dysfunction, suggesting a potential link between these factors and neurodevelopmental processes in schizophrenia.

This study detailed the structure and amino acid composition of sheep trichohyalin, noting its presence in various tissues and suggesting a possible functional role beyond structural support in hair follicles.

This case report describes two patients with trichotillomania who were successfully treated with N-acetylcysteine, suggesting it as a potential new management option, though further studies are needed.

This study reported that a low color temperature light (1900 K) may have positive effects on melatonin secretion, eye protection, wound healing, and hair regeneration compared to higher temperature lights.

This study suggests that women with polycystic ovary syndrome may have a distinct metabolomic profile, differing in levels of amino acids, organic acids, and lipids compared to controls.

In this study, treatment with insulin sensitizers significantly increased adipose tissue GLUT4 mRNA expression and improved insulin resistance, menstrual patterns, and androgen profiles in PCOS patients, with rosiglitazone being more effective than metformin.

Human hair follicle stem cells show signs of low oxygen levels, which may be important for hair growth and preventing baldness.

In this case report, a patient with trichotillomania showed a significant positive response to treatment with N-acetylcysteine, suggesting its potential effectiveness for this disorder according to the authors’ observations.

This review discusses recent advances in the pharmacological treatment of trichotillomania, highlighting potential benefits of glutamate-modulating agents, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that acid regulation of the TRPV3 channel can inhibit its function from outside the cell while facilitating it from inside, providing insights into skin barrier and disorder mechanisms related to tissue acidosis.

This review discusses the diagnostic challenges of androgen and estrogen-secreting adrenal tumors and highlights that the presence of metastases is the most reliable indicator of malignancy; it reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, copper was found to promote the proliferation of dermal papilla cells in Rex rabbits by maintaining the function of the cellular mitochondrial electron transport chain.

This review summarizes a 15-year collaboration on the role of synaptic-like vesicles in mechanosensory nerve terminals and suggests potential therapeutic implications for conditions like hypertension and muscle spasticity.

This review discusses trichotillomania, including its diagnosis and management, and emphasizes the importance of a psychiatry-dermatology liaison alongside behavioral therapy and pharmacological options.

This paper discusses the complex interplay between Long Covid symptoms and various chronic fatigue-related conditions but reports no new clinical findings.

In this report, an 18-year-old female with trichotillomania was successfully treated using the glutamate modulator n-acetylcysteine.

This review discusses the role of microglia in mediating prenatal androgen effects on the female brain, potentially contributing to PCOS development and neuroendocrine dysfunctions, but reports no new results.

This study reported that novel kainate derivatives, especially ZCZ90, maintained potency in affecting proprioceptive sensory organ firing, aiding future receptor studies for potential treatment innovations.

This study found that cysteine and arginine are crucial for hair growth in hair follicles, with cysteine affecting hair fibre diameter and arginine involved in protein incorporation and energy metabolism.

This systematic review found that cinnamon supplementation may modestly improve insulin sensitivity and potentially reduce hyperandrogenism in women with PCOS, but stresses the need for large-scale clinical trials.

In this review, researchers analyzed literature on trichotillomania and found advances in understanding its neurobiology—highlighting dysregulated reward circuits and genetics—and treatments, with behavioral therapy and innovative pharmacological approaches improving outcomes where traditional SSRIs do not.

This review highlights advances in understanding trichotillomania's neurobiology and treatment, noting behavior therapy's effectiveness and new pharmacological and digital therapies, while addressing underdiagnosis, stigma, and research gaps.

In this literature review, researchers highlighted that trichotillomania involves dysregulated reward circuits, abnormal sensory processing, and potential genetic factors, advancing both therapeutic strategies and understanding of the condition, but stigma and provider training gaps persist in effective care provision.

This study found that the transcription factor Meis2 regulates the maturation and innervation of sensory neurons in mice, affecting their response to light touch.
