This article presents a collection of interdisciplinary studies by Brazilian researchers that address various societal issues to contribute to the nation's social and scientific development; it reports no new results.

In this research, SEU-302, a newly developed covalent organic framework, exhibited significant antibacterial and wound-healing properties in vitro and in vivo, effectively eliminating Staphylococcus aureus and reducing inflammation under light activation, thereby showcasing its potential for therapeutic photodynamic applications.

This study found that the dehydroepiandrosterone hydroxylating enzyme system in hair follicles is similar to the liver monooxygenase system, sharing characteristics such as inhibition by carbon monoxide and dependency on NADPH.

This study successfully isolated inner ear-specific exosomes from perilymph samples of sensorineural hearing loss patients using a novel immunomagnetic approach, enabling groundbreaking liquid biopsy diagnostics.

This study found that ocu-miR-205 promotes changes in signaling pathways and shifts in hair follicle phases, affecting Rex rabbit hair density by increasing secondary follicles.

This review synthesizes the diverse roles of the transcription factor LHX2 in development, tissue maintenance, and injury repair across various organ systems, highlighting its potential therapeutic applications and significance in regenerative medicine, particularly in developmental disorders and tissue regeneration.

This review provides an overview of Hox genes, focusing on their evolutionary history, genomic organization, and roles in development, but reports no new study results.

This study identified a gene transcript overexpressed in dermal papilla cells, showing strong similarity to a mouse gene associated with adipose tissue in bombesin receptor subtype-3-deficient mice.

This study found a positive association between bilateral diagonal earlobe crease and bilateral preauricular crease with coronary artery disease, with both creases together predicting the disease with 90% accuracy.

This study described the structure of the hair brush on male Endoclita vietnamensis moths' legs, identifying characteristics such as specialized scales and a pheromone gland, which could facilitate the future development of pheromone-based pest control methods for eucalyptus pests in China.

This study found that miR-133a-3p and miR-145-5p influenced goat hair follicle stem cell differentiation by inhibiting NANOG expression and promoting SOX9 expression.

This study suggests that BBS7 is crucial for maintaining Sonic hedgehog signaling activity, which is important for periodontal ligament homeostasis under occlusal hypofunction conditions.

In this study, Urtica dioica extract was found to significantly downregulate 5-alpha-reductase type II gene expression in skin cells, suggesting potential usefulness against androgenic skin diseases.

Hox genes control hair follicle stem cell regeneration in different body regions.

This case report described a 62-year-old postmenopausal woman with hirsutism whose symptoms improved after a hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy, revealing bilateral ovarian hyperthecosis.

This study demonstrated that AtVLN4 plays a role in root hair growth by regulating actin organization in a calcium-dependent manner.

This case report describes a 12-year-old boy with congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis and progressing acro-osteolysis, highlighting the severe complications and the necessity for early intervention.

This review discusses the Vogt-Koyanagi syndrome, highlighting its symptoms and historical context, but reports no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize its recognition as a distinct clinical entity.

Isolated patchy heterochromia with pili annulati can occur without other health issues.

This study found that ocu-miR-205 influences hair follicle density and signaling pathways in Rex rabbits by promoting dermal papilla cell apoptosis and altering hair follicle phases.

In this study, researchers identified a novel biomarker of oxalate metabolism, which plays a crucial role in conditions like hyperoxaluria and kidney stones, marking the first time this detection has been reported.

Ursolic and shikimic acid together boost hair growth better than alone.

This study found a novel R430Q gene mutation in hHb6, which may be linked to the hereditary hair disorder monilethrix in the examined family.

In this study, prenatal ultrasonography was found to be a valuable tool for screening ectodermal dysplasia during pregnancy, and a new EDA gene variant associated with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia was identified, aiding in more accurate diagnoses and reproductive decision-making.

In this study, Dodatek A operationalizes the Functional Androgen Axis framework by defining three system-level indices and an efficiency metric to describe androgen function, incorporating key methodological improvements and acknowledging significant limitations for future empirical validation.

This review describes techniques to manage intraoperative floppy iris syndrome linked to alpha-1 blocker use in cataract surgery, highlighting the need for patient disclosure of medication use but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, the researchers found that a combination of honeys from four islands significantly repaired hair integrity, porosity, and surface roughness caused by UV-A and urban pollution, resulting in strengthened, soft, and shiny hair in Asian hair shafts.

This study observed unique ultrastructural changes in a 4-year-old girl with pili trianguli et canaliculi that may affect hair shaft surface characteristics due to inner root sheath alterations.
