This review synthesizes the diverse roles of the transcription factor LHX2 in development, tissue maintenance, and injury repair across various organ systems, highlighting its potential therapeutic applications and significance in regenerative medicine, particularly in developmental disorders and tissue regeneration.

This review provides an overview of Hox genes, focusing on their evolutionary history, genomic organization, and roles in development, but reports no new study results.

This case report details a functioning adrenocortical oncocytoma in a 3-year-old girl with hirsutism and virilization, highlighting its rarity in childhood and including a literature review without new clinical data.

This study observed that in vitro cocultures of hair follicle cells with dermal fibroblasts or hair papilla cells enhanced proliferation and differentiation of outer root sheath cells but did not mimic hair-type differentiation.

This study found no consistent differences between the posterior vertex and occipital region for hair hormone analysis, but noted significant variations in specific hormone concentrations, highlighting the need for standardized sampling practices.

In this study, researchers explored how hair follicle orientation is affected in the rosette fancy mouse and found that a mutation in the PCP gene Fzd6 caused reversed hair orientations in the posterior region, leading to the formation of unique whorls.

This study found that the human hairline is closely linked to several cranial, cerebral, and vascular structures, enabling precise localization of key neuroanatomical landmarks, which could assist in planning neurosurgical procedures.

Cortexolone 17a-propionate may be an effective new treatment for hair loss.

This study suggests that human scalp hair follicles express erythropoietin and its receptor, up-regulating receptor expression under hypoxic conditions, and may mimic another hypothalamus–pituitary axis equivalent involving the TRH-TSH system.

Rat hair follicle stem cells have functional oxytocin receptors, useful for studying neuropsychiatric disorders.

This study found that cortexolone 17α-propionate showed strong topical antiandrogenic activity, outperforming progesterone and several known antiandrogens, but lacked systemic antiandrogenic effects in animal models.

This review discusses the role of the CRH–ACTH–cortisol axis in skin function and its potential link to stress-related skin and hair conditions, and reports no new experimental results.

This overview examines the biology, origin, structure, and function of various cells and structures, such as the blood-retinal barrier and Merkel cells, and discusses their roles in disease pathogenesis, along with recent findings related to the lymph nodes' paracortex.

This study found that endoscopy-assisted craniectomies with postoperative molding helmets led to excellent outcomes in infants with sagittal synostosis, with low morbidity and minimal complications.

This study integrated single-cell RNA-seq data from four previous studies to create a comprehensive human corneal cell state meta-atlas, revealing novel marker genes, rare cell states, and distinct transcription factors, and offering a tool to enhance future cornea research.

This case report describes a rare instance of functioning adrenocortical oncocytoma in a 14-year-old girl with virilization and reviews related literature.

This study developed a comprehensive atlas of human scalp tissue to uncover cell states and lineages in hair follicles, identifying disease-specific cellular changes associated with non-scarring and scarring hair loss, which may offer new diagnostic and therapeutic insights.

This study found that Hoxc gene expression can reprogram mesenchymal dermal papilla cells, enhance epithelial stem cell regenerative potential, and promote region-specific hair follicle regeneration through Wnt signaling.

This study found that Hopx labels a long-lived progenitor population in hair follicles, which contributes to hair follicle stem cell homeostasis and has an alternative origin from previously thought progenitors.

This article describes cases of unusual scalp whorl patterns, including triple parietal and right temporal whorls, that were associated with normal development, and discusses theories of hair whorl development.

This study introduces the term "hair matrix cyst" for a cyst with both pilomatricoma and epidermal cyst characteristics, highlighting its potential for misdiagnosis among similar skin conditions.

This review discusses hair follicle organoids as emerging models for studying hair biology and disorders, emphasizing their promise for bridging basic research and clinical applications, but reports no new results.

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.

Hox genes control hair follicle stem cell regeneration in different body regions.

This study found that Sox9 plays a critical role in maintaining radial glial progenitor cells and regulates the timing of their generation of upper-layer cortical neurons.

This study created a detailed spatial atlas of healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma, revealing a potential hair follicle origin for basal cell carcinoma and expansion of certain mesenchymal cell populations.

In this study, hair from forearms showed higher cortisol levels than hair from lower legs, suggesting a localized cortisol response in hair.

In this study, researchers developed a detailed spatial atlas of healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma, revealing that basal cell carcinoma likely originates from hair follicles and involves expansion of specific fibroblast subpopulations found in healthy skin.
