This study found that nuclear androgen receptors are not necessary for androgen self-administration, suggesting that plasma membrane receptors might be involved.

In this study, a new formulation of all-trans retinoic acid bound to polyvinyl alcohol showed reduced skin inflammation and sustained drug release for up to six days compared to free ATRA in vitro and in vivo.

This study found that transcription factors HOXC13, LEF1, and FOXN1 repress DSG4 transcription, with the Notch pathway possibly involved in maintaining DSG4 expression in hair follicles.

This study identifies comedonal or cystic fibrofolliculomas as novel diagnostic clues for earlier recognition of Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome, potentially facilitating timely surveillance of associated systemic complications.

This study found that in rodent diabetes models, measuring corticosterone levels in new growth hair was more sensitive to hyperglycemia-induced changes than using old hair or serum samples.

This study found that higher prenatal and early childhood lead exposure may be associated with delayed pubertal development in girls, but not in boys, in Mexico City.

This study found that increased MSI2 expression in hair follicle stem cells can delay hair growth by maintaining stem cell quiescence and repressing Hedgehog signaling.

This review explores the mechanisms by which UV radiation causes skin cancer, highlighting UV-induced DNA damage and its implications for cancer prevention strategies, but reports no new findings.

This study found that early-onset male pattern baldness was associated with a reduced relative risk of prostate cancer.

The researchers reported that noncoding double-stranded RNA promotes wound-induced hair neogenesis in mice by modulating prostaglandin and Wnt levels.

This study analyzed 19 clinical trials and found that dermatologic adverse events, such as rash, xerosis, and mucositis, frequently occur in pediatric patients receiving targeted anticancer therapies.

This study found that humanized mouse models expressing mutated or reduced levels of the vitamin D receptor were able to maintain normal mineral homeostasis and prevent typical symptoms of vitamin D resistance.

In this case report, two women with chronic alopecia areata and acute alopecia universalis experienced sustained and near-complete hair regrowth after over a year of treatment with oral ruxolitinib, without significant side effects.

In this study, transgenic mice altered to express a Clim-inhibiting molecule under a keratin promoter showed corneal degradation and hair follicle failure, highlighting Clim proteins' role in maintaining these tissues.

The study found that up-regulating β-catenin signaling in CD 133-positive dermal papilla cells enhanced their ability to promote hair follicle regeneration both in vitro and in vivo.

This study developed and validated a mass spectrometric method to measure hydroxy-androgens in serum, which aids in understanding androgen synthesis in castration resistant prostate cancer.

This study reported cold thermal injuries on the scalp in four patients using cold caps to prevent chemotherapy-induced alopecia, suggesting improper application can lead to adverse events.

This study found that mice with a mutation in the Zdhhc13 gene exhibited increased susceptibility to skin cancer, highlighting a potential protective role of palmitoyl acyltransferase in skin carcinogenesis.

This study found that large excisional wounds in rats across seven strains do not regenerate new hair follicles, unlike in mice, possibly due to differences in epidermal competence and transcriptional profiles.

In this study, inhibition of neurosteroid synthesis after inducing status epilepticus in rats led to acute seizures and accelerated the onset of epilepsy, suggesting a role for δ-GABAR plasticity in epileptogenesis.

This article discusses the importance of recognizing polycystic ovary syndrome in adolescent girls during initial evaluations of menstrual irregularity and outlines current treatment strategies, reporting no new clinical results.

This study suggests that MMP-9 plays a significant role in extracellular matrix remodeling during hair canal formation in mice, as indicated by delayed hair shaft emergence and hair canal development in MMP-9 knockout mice.

In this study, silencing BMAL1 and PER1 genes increased melanogenic activity in follicular and epidermal melanocytes, suggesting that peripheral circadian clocks may regulate melanin pigmentation.

Two studies in Cell Stem Cell reported that human and mouse somatic cells can be reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells using microRNAs, eliminating the need for ectopic protein expression.

This research suggests that the vitamin D receptor may regulate hair follicle cycling and provide genoprotection against skin carcinogenesis through a mechanism independent of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, based on evidence from mouse models.

The study observed that Hispanic women with PCOS had significantly higher odds of having NASH compared to non-Hispanic women, suggesting routine screening may be beneficial in this high-risk group.

This study found that vertical sleeve gastrectomy improved metabolic, behavioral, and reproductive symptoms in a rat model of PCOS, suggesting it may be a potential therapy for specific aspects of PCOS.

This case report describes a patient with a hepatitis C diagnosis whose acral rash, initially unresponsive to psoriasis treatment, showed significant improvement with oral zinc sulfate, suggesting a diagnosis of necrolytic acral erythema.

In this study, shear-thinning silk nanofiber hydrogels were found to enhance retention of mesenchymal stem cells and accelerate wound healing in rat models.

This study suggests that rapamycin, but not acarbose, can delay age-related loss of cochlear outer hair cells in UM-HET3 mice at doses that increase life span.
