This study found that glycolytic metabolism and lactate production are crucial for hair follicle stem cell activation, and manipulating these processes can stimulate the hair cycle.

This preliminary study of Alopecia Areata identified limited expression of certain metabolic transporters and enzymes in hair follicle immune cells, providing early insight into their unique energy needs.

This study found that inhibiting the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier in human hair follicles ex vivo activated the integrated stress response, affecting cell proliferation and metabolism.

This study found that Polycomb repressive complex 1 is crucial for skin development and stem cell specification, influencing gene activity beyond its known repressor functions.

In a mouse model study, researchers observed that the absence of MCPIP1 in myeloid cells decreased susceptibility to chemically induced skin papillomas but caused significant hair loss and skin pigmentation changes, suggesting a role for MCPIP1 in skin carcinogenesis and follicle integrity.

This study found cell-specific variations in POMC mRNA and peptide expression in murine skin, suggesting that PC1 and PC2 convertases contribute to differential POMC processing.

This study reported the development of new pyrazole-based MPC inhibitors that effectively inhibit mitochondrial pyruvate transport, showing potential as therapeutic candidates for conditions like metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis without activating PPARγ.

This review discusses the role of Wnt/β‐catenin signaling in stem and cancer stem cell maintenance and its involvement in the development and regeneration of various organs, but reports no new experimental results.

This study highlights that the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2)-Akt signaling axis is essential for hair follicle stem cells to return to their niche and regenerate effectively by regulating metabolic pathways.

This study found that Ldh activity in hair follicle stem cell-mediated squamous cell carcinoma is not necessary for tumorigenesis, as its modulation did not affect the cancer's development or characteristics.

This review discusses emerging targets for developing drugs to treat hair loss and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the potential for therapies that regenerate hair follicles.

In this study, researchers observed that quiescent mouse embryonic fibroblasts showed reduced glycolysis but increased TCA cycle flux and mitochondrial respiration, with these changes linked to metabolic reprogramming involving yes-associated protein inhibition and malate cycle modulation, which supports extracellular matrix protein synthesis.

This study found that topical application of mitochondrial electron transport chain inhibitors stimulated hair follicle stem cell activation and hair regrowth in aged mice by promoting lactate production.

This study suggests that β-catenin plays an important role in wool follicle development in transgenic sheep by enhancing the expression of keratin protein genes.

This review discusses the role of metabolism in maintaining adult stem cell homeostasis with aging and highlights the potential benefits of dietary restrictions on stem cell function and longevity. It reports no new clinical results and emphasizes the need for further molecular studies.

This study found that COVID-19 infection disrupts spermatogenesis, alters testicular cell populations, and may impact male fertility by causing long-term changes in testicular function and reduced sperm quality, as observed even in patients who have recovered from the acute phase of the infection.

This study found that inhibiting the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier in human scalp hair follicles caused metabolic stress that halted cell proliferation and disrupted key signaling pathways, with these effects partially reversed by an integrated stress response inhibitor.

In this study, researchers found that while blocking either glycolysis or glutaminolysis in cancer cells did not prevent tumor growth due to metabolic flexibility, simultaneous inhibition of both pathways hindered carcinoma development, indicating multiple interventions may be necessary for effective metabolic manipulation in cancer treatment.

This review examines the role of androgens and androgen receptors in regulating glucose and lipid metabolism, focusing on their effects on mitochondrial content and function; it also discusses the sex-dimorphic influence of androgens and provides theoretical insights into their mechanisms.

This study found that the natural product Shi-Bi-Man significantly promoted hair regeneration in cynomolgus monkeys, increasing hair follicle number and activation by boosting specific protein markers and interactions in Laminin-related pathways.

This review discusses various methods for obtaining stem cell-derived conditioned media and its applications in disease treatment, finding generally positive results but highlighting the need for standardized production methods.

This review examines recent findings on COVID-19 pneumonia treatment using mesenchymal stem cells and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight MSCs' potential due to their immunomodulatory and tissue-regenerative properties.

This review covers cell transplantation methods for genitourinary reconstruction, discussing tissue sources and complications but presenting no new clinical findings.

This study found that the development of Merkel cell carcinoma from hair follicles in mice can be driven by in vivo reprogramming with ATOH1 and relies on p53 loss for progression.

This study by Pérez-Oliva et al. explored how Mahogunin Ring Finger-1 (MGRN1) affects melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) signaling, suggesting that MGRN1 competitively inhibits Gαs binding to MC1R, influencing pigment production.

In this study, mice lacking the Mcpip1 gene in their myeloid cells did not develop SCC-like tumors but instead showed increased melanocyte activity and hair loss, indicating a distinct role for myeloid Mcpip1 in skin cancer development compared to keratinocyte Mcpip1.

This study identified a new gene, mrp4, in mice, which suggests it may have a unique role in the growth and development of hair follicles in the ears and tails.

This study found that PRC1 plays crucial roles in skin epithelial stem cell regulation, with catalytic and non-catalytic functions impacting epidermal integrity, hair development, and Merkel cell dynamics in murine models.

This study found that novel MPC inhibitor analogues with specific chemical modifications promoted significant hair growth in shaved mice when applied topically.
