This study found that hair follicles in mice and humans can convert wound-related myofibroblasts into adipocytes, suggesting a potential pathway to reduce scar formation by activating BMP signaling.

This review discusses the potential benefits of myo-inositol supplementation for insulin resistance-related disorders and diabetic complications, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that in mice, dermal adipocytes initiate inflammation and aid repair after skin injury by releasing lipids, suggesting a role in managing inflammatory diseases and impaired wound healing.

This study found that NF-κB signaling may connect injury response to regenerative processes in zebrafish hearts, potentially aiding the development of cardiac regenerative therapies in humans.

In this study, EDA-A2 transgenic mice exhibited multifocal myodegeneration dependent on XEDAR, suggesting a potential role for XEDAR in skeletal muscle homeostasis.

This study found that myo-inositol treatment reduced hirsutism and acne in women with PCOS by improving their metabolic profiles, including lower insulin and testosterone levels.

This study found that androgens increase Odc1 expression in skeletal muscle myoblasts, promoting proliferation and delaying differentiation.

This study suggests that myotonic dystrophies may qualify as segmental progeroid disorders due to molecular and clinical similarities with typical progeroid syndromes.

This study found that sweat gland stem cells primarily maintain sweat gland homeostasis but can trans-differentiate to aid in epidermal healing and regenerate diverse skin structures under certain conditions.

This study provides evidence that human sweat gland myoepithelial cells contain stem cells capable of self-renewal and differentiating into sweat gland luminal cells.

In this study, myofibroblasts in rat cutaneous fibrosis were characterized by expressions of vimentin, α-SMA, and Thy-1, and may derive from pericytes or perifollicular dermal sheath cells.

This study found that P311 triggers transdifferentiation of epidermal stem cells into myofibroblast-like cells via TGFβ1/Smad signaling during wound healing.

This study reports a new family with hereditary fibrosing poikiloderma (POIKTMP) and identifies a pancreatic cancer occurrence in a family member, raising questions about FAM111B's role as a potential cancer predisposition gene.

This study found that patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1 had higher numbers of nevi, dysplastic nevi, melanomas, and pilomatrixomas compared to age- and sex-matched controls.

This study found that combined Myo-inositol and D-chiro-inositol therapy improved metabolic and hormonal parameters, including weight, hormone levels, and skin conditions, in women with PCOS after 6 months.

This study found that patients with myotonic dystrophy types 1 and 2 often exhibit skin abnormalities, which correlate with genotype severity and serum vitamin D levels, and suggest premature aging.

This case study of a 50-year-old woman with myotonic dystrophy and multiple basal cell carcinomas suggests there could be a genetic predisposition for certain cutaneous tumors in such patients.

This case report discusses a 45-year-old Japanese man who developed myocardial infarction while using 1% topical minoxidil for baldness, highlighting the need for caution in patients with cardiovascular disorders.

This case study reports the first known instance of adult Kawasaki's disease presenting with highly elevated serum ferritin levels and splenomegaly, emphasizing its consideration in differential diagnoses for adults with persistent rash, fever, and specific clinical features.

This study found that (-)-blebbistatin significantly inhibited liver fibrosis in mouse models by reducing tissue stiffness and myofibroblast activation, indicating potential for developing broad-spectrum antifibrotic drugs.

This narrative review on inositol use in PCOS treatment found positive results for myo-inositol alone and effective outcomes for a myo-inositol/D-chiro inositol combination at a 40:1 ratio, suggesting further research on other combinations like 66:1 to 100:1.

This study suggests that CTHRC1, a protein expressed in cardiac fibroblasts, may improve wound repair and prevent cardiac rupture after myocardial infarction by activating a specific signaling pathway.

This study found that adult patients with Myotonic Dystrophy type 1 exhibited a higher prevalence of various morphofunctional, inflammatory, and proliferative skin disorders compared to healthy controls.

This study describes three female cases of androgen-dependent diseases in myotonic dystrophy, suggesting that peripheral androgen response, rather than serum levels, may drive such conditions.

This study observed that cutaneous microwounds created by fractional photothermolysis heal differently from typical wounds, displaying rapid re-epithelialization and limited inflammation, which may help reduce scar formation by delaying collagen remodeling and minimizing myofibroblast activation.

This article describes the potential applications of myoblast implantation for muscle regeneration and its promising social and economic value but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the late presentation of myotonic dystrophy but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis, higher serum dihydrotestosterone levels were associated with increased myocardial hypertrophy, fibrosis, and reduced left ventricular function.

This review discusses the similarities between myotonic dystrophy and aging, highlighting the role of cellular senescence in its pathophysiology, and reports no new clinical findings; the authors note potential anti-aging therapy applications.

Low-dose finasteride may cause muscle weakness and eye issues, but stopping the drug can lead to recovery.
