This study reports the cloning and expression details of two new human type II keratins, K6irs3 and K6irs4, in the hair follicle's inner root sheath, suggesting a distinct functional role related to hair structure.

This study identified at least four distinct fibroblast populations in adult human skin, each with unique functional properties, suggesting potential therapeutic applications for wound healing and fibrosis-related diseases.

This review discusses the molecular mechanisms by which oncogenic viruses contribute to cancer development through manipulation of host cellular functions and highlights the need for further research into virus-associated cancers, reporting no new results.

This study found that SARS-CoV-2 hijacks the host factor IGF2BP1 to stabilize its RNA and enhance translation, and identified Cepharanthine and Trifluoperazine as potential treatments against the virus.

This study identifies six novel keratin genes from the chromosome 17q21.2 region, suggesting their association with hair follicles, while all 27 keratin genes in the domain have been characterized transcriptionally.

This review examines non-invasive methods for diagnosing inflammatory skin diseases like lupus erythematosus and psoriatic inflammation using samples from plucked hair and skin tape-strips, but no new clinical results are presented.

In this study, researchers developed a 3D in-vitro system for generating functional AT-resident macrophages without cell sorting, providing a valuable tool to study their differentiation and function in various physiological and pathological conditions.

This study demonstrates that genome-edited epidermal stem cells can continuously monitor blood glucose levels in vivo and potentially aid in diabetes treatment through skin somatic gene therapy.

This paper describes the hGRα gene structure and its expression, focusing on the functional properties of the longest GRα isoform, but reports no new results.

This study found that, despite confirming MC1R expression and functional cAMP signalling, α-MSH treatment did not alleviate UVA-induced stress in adult dermal fibroblasts, suggesting that α-MSH-MC1R may not directly protect against UVA-induced photoaging in these cells.

This study in diabetic db/db mice found that treatment with the antihypertensive agents minoxidil or nebivolol stimulated elastogenesis and inhibited elastolysis, leading to restored elastic fibers, reduced aortic stiffening, and normalized blood pressure.

This research reports that essential oils may enhance athletic performance by improving cerebral hemodynamics and promoting muscle and psycho-emotional relaxation through activation of the limbic system.

This study found that combining CelluTome system and RCM is a safe and effective protocol for evaluating wound healing responses in patients with epidermolysis bullosa.

This study reports the successful differentiation of mouse induced pluripotent stem cells into keratinocytes that can regenerate skin and its structures in an in vivo environment.

This review discusses the role of mechanical forces in skin homeostasis and disease development, including their impact on conditions like keloids, androgenetic alopecia, and acral melanoma, and reports no clinical results; the authors propose modifying these forces as a potential therapeutic strategy.

This review discusses the complexity and genetic organization of human keratin gene clusters and addresses the ongoing need for an updated unified naming system; it reports no new clinical results.

This review summarizes recent advancements in follicular targeting for drug delivery via hair follicles and calls for pilot studies in humans to explore potential clinical applications.

This review discusses the various components essential for successful tissue engineering, such as cell sources, modification methods, and supportive matrices, and highlights the need for functional synergy without reporting new experimental results.

Sericin hydrogels heal skin wounds well, regrowing hair and glands with less scarring.

This study found genetic variations, including de novo variants and copy number variations, that may be associated with phenotypic discordance in monozygotic twins with various clinical conditions.

This review examines the roles of Hedgehog and Gli proteins in mouse embryonic mammary development and suggests that Gli3-repressor-mediated off-state of Hedgehog signaling determines mammary fate over hair follicle fate.

In this in-vitro study, researchers identified finasteride as the most effective FDA-approved drug for expanding functional myeloid-derived suppressor cells, suggesting its potential future use in immunosuppressive therapies.

This study found that evaluating nasal breathing parameters in children with adenoiditis may help assess the effectiveness of conservative treatments during outpatient care.

This study revealed that Vav2 and Vav3 play roles in regulating hair follicle bulge stem cells in normal conditions and cancer stem cell activation and remodeling in mice.

This review examines how incorporating various polymers and active ingredients into polyurethane dressings can enhance their properties and adaptability for better wound repair and regeneration, suggesting a promising direction for developing advanced functional dressings.

This review examines the impact of biotin, vitamin B12, and zinc on male reproduction, emphasizing their role in spermatogenic failure, but reports no new clinical results.

This study outlines a multidisciplinary approach to investigate primary amenorrhea, emphasizing the necessity to consider medical history, physical examination, and potential hormonal or anatomical causes, and recommends early referral in cases of chromosomal abnormalities or persistent amenorrhea following the development of secondary sexual characteristics.

In this study, researchers developed self-assembled skin models derived from hair follicle cells, offering an ethical and reliable alternative to animal testing and bovine collagen in dermatological research by providing functional dermal and epidermal layers for substance evaluation.

This study found that a significant portion of alopecia areata patients achieved at least partial hair regrowth with diphenylcyclopropenon therapy, which was more effective in certain subtypes and disease durations.

This review highlights the potential of microalgae as sustainable sources for nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals, emphasizing their applications in functional foods, dietary supplements, and cosmetics for roles such as anti-aging and photoprotection in alignment with sustainability principles.
