This study found that Hairless (Hr) acts as a corepressor of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) in human keratinocytes, blocking the action of vitamin D on keratinocyte differentiation.

This study developed a method to convert fibroblasts into sweat gland-like cells, suggesting potential for regenerating damaged skin and restoring sweat gland function.

This study found that PRMT5 inhibitors showed potent anti-tumor activity in models of adenoid cystic carcinoma and that combining these inhibitors with lenvatinib may have additional growth-inhibitory effects.

This review article highlights the potential of mesenchymal stem cells, their exosomes, and non-coding RNAs in repairing aging skin tissues due to their ability to secrete beneficial compounds, suggesting their promising role in photoaging treatment without causing immune rejection or granuloma formation.

This study found that stimulating dermal papilla cells with specific adipo-osteogenic factors and growth factors helped maintain their viability and restored their hair-forming activity in vitro.

This chapter reviews the potential of stem cells from discarded deciduous teeth in regenerative medicine and dentistry, with no new clinical results presented.

This paper discusses the lack of a genetic model for androchronogenic alopecia in rodents, noting the stumptailed macaque as a better current model due to its similarities to human male-pattern baldness; it reports no new results.

In this study using a mouse model, the researchers found that platelet-rich plasma significantly increased the number of newly formed hair follicles and decreased the time for hair formation compared to no treatment.

This study found that extracellular factors from a specific developmental stage can promote hair follicle neogenesis in adult skin by facilitating interactions between fibroblasts and keratinocytes.

In this study, the researchers reported that Notch/CSL signaling is crucial for hair follicle differentiation, with Wnt5a signaling and FoxN1 acting as mediators in mice.

This article reviews potential animal models for studying androgenetic alopecia and reports no new experimental results; the authors highlight the need for further development of rodent models.

This study identified two significant genomic regions potentially involved in hair development and growth in Casertana pigs, highlighting FOXN3 and ARHGEF10 as candidate genes associated with a hairless phenotype.

This review discusses the paracrine effects of adipose tissue-derived stem cells on surrounding cells and tissues, noting their potential therapeutic benefits, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that mice lacking the Vitamin D receptor showed disrupted hair follicle cycling, which was partially restored with hedgehog signaling pathway activation, suggesting a role for this pathway in follicle regulation independent of vitamin D.

This review examines the role of regulatory T cells in skin immune disorders, highlighting their unique functions in conditions like scleroderma, alopecia areata, and psoriasis, without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that TSC2-null fibroblast cells from TSC skin hamartomas can induce hair follicle formation and hamartomatous changes in keratinocytes, with active mTOR signaling observable in a mouse xenograft model.

This study indicates that the Sp6 gene is crucial for the development of skin, teeth, limbs, and lungs in mice, possibly through regulating apoptosis.

This study found that Hoxc13-/- rabbits exhibit complete hair loss on the head and dorsum, providing a potential model for understanding human ECTD-9 and related dermatological conditions.

A man's rare tumor caused unusual nerve-related symptoms that improved after surgery.

This study reported that recombinant sonic hedgehog proteins can promote hair growth by activating hair-related genes and signaling pathways, suggesting potential as a therapeutic agent in mice.

This article reviews the relationship between the skin and the immune system and discusses how skin manifestations can indicate immunodeficiencies but reports no new research findings.
