research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Etiology, Pathogenesis, and Diagnosis
The document concludes that PCOS is a complex disorder caused by both genetic and environmental factors, affecting women's health in various ways, and requires personalized treatment.
research Cutaneous Scarring: Basic Science, Current Treatments, and Future Directions
New effective scar treatments are urgently needed due to the current options' limited success.
research Biomaterials for In Situ Tissue Regeneration: Development and Perspectives
Smart biomaterials that guide tissue repair are key for future medical treatments.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Ginseng Phytochemicals as Therapeutics in Oncology: Recent Perspectives
Ginseng may help treat cancer and reduce treatment side effects, but more research is needed.
research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research Fibromodulin Deficiency Alters Temporospatial Expression Patterns of Transforming Growth Factor-β Ligands and Receptors During Adult Mouse Skin Wound Healing
Mice lacking fibromodulin have disrupted healing patterns, leading to abnormal skin repair and scarring.
research Beyond Goosebumps: Does the Arrector Pili Muscle Have a Role in Hair Loss?
The arrector pili muscle might play a role in hair loss and needs more research to understand its impact.
research GPR39 Marks Specific Cells Within the Sebaceous Gland and Contributes to Skin Wound Healing
GPR39 is linked to certain cells in the sebaceous gland and helps with skin healing.
research Making Waves with Hairs: Genetic and Epigenetic Factors in Hair Pattern Formation
Skin patterns are formed by simple reaction-diffusion mechanisms.
research Tooth, Hair, and Claw: Comparing Epithelial Stem Cell Niches of Ectodermal Appendages
The conclusion is that teeth, hair, and claws have similar stem cell niches, which are important for growth and repair, and more research is needed on their regulation and potential markers.
research Comparative Proteomic Analysis in Scar-Free Skin Regeneration in Acomys Cahirinus and Scarring Mus Musculus
The African spiny mouse heals skin without scarring due to different protein activity compared to the common house mouse, which heals with scarring.
research Localization of the Rabies Virus Antigen in Merkel Cells in the Follicle-Sinus Complexes of Muzzle Skins of Rabid Dogs
Rabies virus was found in specific skin cells of rabid dogs' muzzles, suggesting these cells could help diagnose rabies.
research DMBA/TPA Treatment Is Necessary for Basal Cell Carcinoma Formation from Patched Deficient Epidermal Cells in Ptch Flox/Flox CD4Cre +/- Mice
Genetic mutation and carcinogen treatment are both needed for skin cancer to develop in these specific mice.
research Hair Whorls in the Dog (Canis Familiaris): Distribution
Most dogs have hair whorls on their chest and limbs, with shelter dogs and short-haired dogs having more chest whorls.
research Comparative Effect of Datura Metel Leaf and Flower Extracts for Hair Formulations
Combining Datura metel leaf and flower extracts can enhance hair growth without skin irritation.
research Approaches to Lifestyle Management in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Lifestyle changes like diet and exercise are key for treating overweight women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research In This Issue
Advancements in hair biology include new treatments and tools for hair growth and alopecia.
research Calreticulin: Non-Endoplasmic Reticulum Functions in Physiology and Disease
Calreticulin has roles in healing, immune response, and disease beyond its known functions in the endoplasmic reticulum.
research 5α-Reductase Activity in the Prostate
Blocking the enzyme 5α-reductase can shrink the prostate and help treat enlarged prostate issues.
research Commensal Microbes and Hair Follicle Morphogenesis Coordinately Drive Treg Migration into Neonatal Skin
Hair follicle development and microbes help regulatory T cells gather in newborn skin.
research Biology of Estrogens in Skin: Implications for Skin Aging
Estrogens can improve skin aging but carry risks; more research is needed on safer treatments.
research Androgens and Alopecia
Male hormones, particularly DHT, are linked to male pattern hair loss, and treatments like finasteride can help, but they don't work for postmenopausal women's hair loss, which may have different causes.
research The Lysosomal Protease Cathepsin L Is an Important Regulator of Keratinocyte and Melanocyte Differentiation During Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling
Cathepsin L is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research Tactile Innervation Densities Across the Whole Body
Young adults have about 230,000 tactile nerve fibers, decreasing 5-8% per decade with age.
research MicroRNA-214 Controls Skin and Hair Follicle Development by Modulating the Activity of the Wnt Pathway
MicroRNA-214 is important for skin and hair growth because it affects the Wnt pathway.
research Dermal White Adipose Tissue: A New Component of the Thermogenic Response
Skin fat helps with body temperature control and has other active roles in health.
research The Effect of Finasteride on the Expression of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Microvessel Density: A Possible Mechanism for Decreased Prostatic Bleeding in Treated Patients
Finasteride may reduce prostate bleeding by lowering blood vessel growth factor levels and blood vessel density in certain prostate areas.
