This study found that nuclear androgen receptors are not necessary for androgen self-administration, suggesting that plasma membrane receptors might be involved.

In this study, researchers found that during zebrafish telencephalon regeneration, the lesioned hemisphere showed distinct gene expression changes and activated Wnt/β-catenin signaling early after injury, suggesting this pathway's significant role in recovery.

This review examined how COVID-19 infection and vaccination might affect sexual activity, sex hormones, and menstrual cycles in men and women, and found no evidence of COVID-19 transmission via semen.

This study found that disrupting Sox21 in developing teeth leads to severe enamel hypoplasia, regional osteoporosis, and abnormal hair formation, with impaired dental epithelial differentiation and regulation of hair follicle cell fate.

This ex vivo study reported that melatonin significantly improved certain aging biomarkers in aged human skin, including reduced mTORC1 activity, increased fibrillin-1, and enhanced collagen and elastic fiber organization, though other key biomarkers remained unchanged.

This review discusses the role and interactions of the calcium-binding protein S100A6 in cellular processes and its association with various diseases, highlighting the need for further research to fully understand its biological impact.

This study found that quercitrin, a natural compound, enhances Wnt/β-catenin signaling and may help mitigate synapse loss and memory impairment in Alzheimer's models.

This review highlights the possibility of safely altering hair color through innovative cosmetics by targeting key biological processes in hair follicles, using insights from mammalian pigmentation studies and drug-induced hair color changes as potential pathways.

In this study, researchers found that the human hair follicle microbiota vary by anatomical compartment and donor age, with specific microbes like S. epidermidis potentially influencing hair follicle functions, which suggests new avenues for therapeutic targeting.

This study identified Activin A and follistatin as key regulators of hair cell differentiation in the mammalian auditory sensory epithelium, with Activin A signaling influencing the timing and pattern of cell differentiation.

This review reports that sodium alginate-based hydrogels show promise in biomedical applications due to their biocompatibility and versatility, but challenges such as mechanical strength and stability remain, highlighting the need for continued research to facilitate their clinical transition.

In this study with organ-cultured human scalp hair follicles, high mTORC1 activity correlated with gray/white hair and reduced pigmentation, while inhibiting mTORC1 with rapamycin increased hair growth and pigmentation, suggesting mTORC1 inhibition could be a strategy for treating hair depigmentation and loss.
