According to this study, human scalp hair follicles containing pluripotent stem cells demonstrated the ability to differentiate into cardiac muscle cells and other cell types, suggesting potential applications in heart and nerve regeneration.

This article discusses the importance of creating a well-designed posterior hairline in hair restoration surgery to enhance the natural appearance of the results but does not present new clinical findings.

This study found that the compound 9,11-dehydrocortexolone 17alpha-butyrate (CB-03-04) showed strong local antiandrogenic activity in animal models, suggesting potential for treating prostate conditions.

This study demonstrated that stress-derived neurosteroid THDOC shifts from inhibiting to activating the HPA axis under stress, presenting potential therapeutic targets for stress-related disorders.

This study found that the ocular surface epithelium in mice contains distinct stem cell populations with unique cell division dynamics that change behaviorally in response to different levels of injury.

This study proposed the existence of a membrane-like structure between the cuticle and cortex in human hair, which may provide strong protection against external stimuli.

This study found that in the Jordanian population, elevated cortisol levels were significantly associated with progressive keratoconus, whereas lower cortisol levels were linked to stable disease, suggesting cortisol may be a potential biomarker for monitoring keratoconus progression.

In this study, researchers found that overexpression of the Hedgehog signaling effector Gli2 in mice led to odontogenic keratocysts development, implicating GLI transcription factors in human keratocyst pathogenesis.

This report presents a case of functioning adrenocortical oncocytoma in a 9-year-old girl with virilization symptoms, successfully treated with laparoscopic surgery.

This study found that the transcription factor Lhx2 regulates Sonic Hedgehog signaling in mouse retinal progenitor cells, mainly by controlling the expression of co-receptors essential for effective pathway activation during early retinal neurogenesis.

In this case study, a 55-year-old woman with androgenetic alopecia was ultimately diagnosed with hepatic cortisone reductase deficiency after initially suspected 21-hydroxylase deficiency was ruled out.

This study indicates that the OVOL1-OVOL2 axis may play a significant role in hair follicle differentiation and growth, potentially serving as therapeutic targets for hair disorders like alopecia and in the tumorigenesis of pilomatricoma.

This study suggests that hair cortisol concentration may not reliably indicate psychological distress or differentiate clinical from non-clinical populations, as observed in a female PhD student over nine years.

This article discusses the use of histoculture in cancer treatment, hair growth studies, and immune response research, but reports no new clinical results.

Crickets have genetically controlled hair plates that help them sense and move their antennae.

This case report presents a rare instance of recurrent ACTH-independent Cushing’s syndrome due to PBMAH, coinciding with the development of a pheochromocytoma, highlighting the need for thorough reevaluation in similar recurring cases.

In this case study, medical management with trilostane improved clinical signs and normalized serum chemistry in a dog diagnosed with adrenal-dependent hyperadrenocorticism over 80 weeks of treatment.

This chapter reviews scalp and calvarium reconstruction, highlighting regional anatomy, reconstruction techniques, and discusses the current perspectives on hair restoration surgery and allotransplantation, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the physicochemical properties, binding mechanisms, and factors affecting corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG) functions, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the evidence regarding the role of sex hormones in occult hyperadrenocorticism and reports no new findings, highlighting the unproven nature of their involvement.

This dissertation reports that horizontal basal cells in the olfactory epithelium undergo symmetric divisions balanced by population asymmetry, which supports their renewal and differentiation during tissue homeostasis and regeneration.

This study found that Fos protein expression is closely linked to epithelial cell differentiation, particularly during cornification and cell death, with overexpression observed in keratinization-blocked mutant epidermis.

This study found that sexual trauma, particularly occurring between ages 5-7, was significantly associated with blunted hair cortisol levels, revealing a potential critical developmental stage affecting HPA axis function. No significant link was observed between cortisol reactivity and other adverse childhood experiences or stressors.

This study found that ossification in trichilemmal cysts may be more common than previously thought, often associated with cyst wall rupture, and reports a novel case of ossifying TC with extramedullary hematopoiesis.

In this study, structural and functional brain abnormalities specific to visuospatial and somatosensory processing networks were observed in patients with anorexia nervosa, highlighting a critical role for the precuneus.

This essay reviews the role of human scalp hair follicles in the "brain-skin connection," highlighting their dual function as targets and sources of neurohormones, without reporting new experimental results.

Alopecia areata may involve stress-related changes affecting hormone receptors, leading to reduced cortisol production.

This phase 1 study reported that after administering supratherapeutic doses of cortexolone 17α‐propionate, a topical antiandrogen intended for hair loss treatment, there was no effect on the QTc interval, indicating no measurable cardiac safety concerns in the concentration range tested.

This study showed that the stress hormone CRF inhibits hair growth and induces hair loss by affecting both the proliferation of human dermal papilla cells and hair follicle function.

This study developed protocols to create skin organoids with hair follicles and other appendages from human induced pluripotent stem cells, representing a significant step towards understanding hair follicle development and potential applications in modeling skin diseases and reconstructive surgeries.
