This review discusses how TGF-β3 influences fate decisions of various stem cell types, highlighting its role in proliferation, differentiation, and cell death through classical and non-classical signalling pathways.

This study reviews evidence that in keloid development, transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) drives fibroblast proliferation and fibrosis not only through the classical Smad-dependent pathway but also via equally important Smad-independent signaling cascades, suggesting these pathways as possible targets for more effective keloid therapies.

This study found that ureteroileal anastomosis with direct intraluminal visualization had a 4.2% stricture rate, which compares favorably to other techniques with rates between 3.5% and 11.1%.

This review examines lesser-known factors contributing to polycystic ovarian syndrome and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for further research into individualized treatment and prevention strategies.

This study found that non-cutaneous melanocytes in mice are less sensitive to Kit signaling compared to cutaneous melanocytes, showing dependence on ET3 and HGF signaling.

This study found that c-Jun is essential for vitamin D receptor expression, and the vitamin D receptor inhibits c-Jun-dependent cell death through non-classical mechanisms independent of vitamin D3.

In this study, homozygous VDR null mutant mice exhibited nonfunctional vitamin D receptors, leading to growth abnormalities and revealing the limited physiological importance of vitamin D pathways outside the classical receptor.

Both main and alternative Wnt signaling are important for regrowing rodent whisker follicles.

This review summarizes recent research on alopecia areata, highlighting advances in targeted therapies due to improved understanding of its immunopathogenesis, though it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses potential treatments for androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new findings, emphasizing the importance of individualized antiandrogenic management to minimize side effects.

This study found that men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia had larger prostate volumes and lower urinary flow rates compared to those without the condition, suggesting a potential link between AGA and urinary symptoms.

This study found that the XEDAR receptor can activate the non-canonical NF-kB pathway involving p100 processing, which is regulated by interactions with TRAF proteins and specific kinases.

This review discusses the mechanisms and pathways of FGFR signalling and its roles in development, disorders, and therapeutic targeting, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that large excisional wounds in rats across seven strains do not regenerate new hair follicles, unlike in mice, possibly due to differences in epidermal competence and transcriptional profiles.

This narrative review discusses the promising role of photobiomodulation in dermatology, emphasizing its non-invasive nature and potential benefits, but acknowledges the need for further research to establish standard protocols.

This review details the expression and diverse functions of melatonin receptors in non-neural tissues and reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing their potential as therapeutic targets across various physiological and pathological processes.

The researchers reported that a newly developed ionic liquid-based microemulsion significantly improved the local delivery of copper peptides in mice, enhancing hair growth-related factor activation while offering a safer, non-invasive alternative to existing treatments for hair loss.

Thyroid-stimulating hormone affects hair follicles but doesn't change hair growth or color.

In this study, researchers found that caffeine can counteract stress-induced damage in ex vivo human androgenetic alopecia hair follicles, suggesting it may help prevent stress-related hair loss.

Using high-throughput proteomics, this study identified 34 differentially expressed proteins in the lesional skin of adults with scalp psoriasis, suggesting a cytokine storm response linked to bacterial antigens.

This article reviews the types and characteristics of adrenal cortex tumors, including their hormone secretion and detection as incidental findings, but presents no new research results.

In this study, Hedgehog signaling in dermal papilla fibroblasts was found to accelerate hair growth and induce follicle multiplication in mice via the SCUBE3/TGF-β pathway, with some effects observed in human scalp hair follicles.

This study identified downstream genes regulated by androgen receptor signaling in dermal papilla cells and suggests potential molecular targets for treating androgenetic alopecia and prostate cancer.

This review discusses the shared molecular and cellular processes in the early development stages of skin appendages like hair follicles, teeth, and mammary glands, reporting no new results.

This study found that all-trans and 9-cis retinoic acids increase steroid sulfatase activity in HL60 cells through mechanisms involving RARα/RXR heterodimers and multiple signaling pathways.

This study showed that vitamin D receptor gene-deficient rats exhibit hair loss and skin abnormalities due to differences in gene and protein expression patterns, while ligand-independent VDR action is crucial for normal hair cycle maintenance and skin formation.

This review explores the role of FGF signaling in hair follicle development and highlights its potential as a new therapeutic target for hair loss, which could surpass existing treatments in terms of efficacy and safety.

This study suggests that mammalian hair follicles may serve as a viable and non-invasive system for diagnosing traumatic brain injury, reflecting similar molecular responses observed in other tissues.

This study identified differentially expressed mRNAs and lncRNAs in Hu sheep hair follicles, suggesting certain genes and pathways are involved in the development of wool curvature patterns.

In this study, researchers identified 47 proteins associated with male pattern baldness severity and prioritized five candidate genes, including druggable CD38, suggesting new non-hormonal targets for therapeutic development.
