January 2015 in “Genetics and Molecular Research” This study conducted de novo transcriptome sequencing in sheep skin, identifying and annotating numerous unigenes, which may aid in improving wool quality and understanding hair follicle development.
December 2023 in “Clinical, cosmetic and investigational dermatology” This study found that combining dermoscopy with reflectance confocal microscopy is more sensitive and specific than using either method alone for assessing vitiligo disease activity and treatment response. Additionally, specific characteristics observed via these techniques correlated with either good or poor treatment outcomes.
In this study, introducing the rat OTC gene into spf-ash mice led to increased OTC activity and normalized hair growth and biochemical markers like urinary orotic acid and serum citrulline, partially correcting the symptoms of OTC deficiency.
December 2024 in “Animals” In this study, researchers found that RORA directly regulates the expression of the Bnip3 gene, which is crucial for hair follicle stem cell health, using rat HFSCs as a model. They propose that targeting RORA could modulate HFSC status.
This study found that ocu-miR-205 promotes changes in signaling pathways and shifts in hair follicle phases, affecting Rex rabbit hair density by increasing secondary follicles.
December 2025 in “The International Journal of Medical Science and Health Research” This literature review explored the potential of Rosmarinus Officinalis as a plant-based solution for Androgenetic Alopecia, highlighting its effectiveness and minimal side effects compared to conventional treatments, which often have significant adverse effects.
November 2025 in “OPAL (Open@LaTrobe) (La Trobe University)” In this study, researchers developed a hierarchically engineered microreactor that effectively combats infected wounds by releasing antimicrobials at acidic sites, eradicating MRSA while avoiding resistance, and enhancing tissue repair through immune system modulation.
September 2009 in “MedEdPORTAL” This resource outlines a structured oral examination approach for internal medicine students using a case study of systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting its convenience and effectiveness based on student feedback.
This study reported that a skin equivalent model using human outer root sheath cells and fibroblasts showed the formation of structures similar to human dermis and epidermis within two weeks after transplantation into mice.
January 2025 in “SSRN Electronic Journal”
January 2018 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study explored how root hairs integrate opposing growth signals but did not report new conclusive findings on the activation of known molecular players in polar growth.

,
August 2019 in “BMC Medical Genetics” This study found that two MC4R gene polymorphisms are associated with higher BMI in women with PCOS in western Saudi Arabia, but are not linked to PCOS itself.
November 2023 in “Curēus” This review examines melatonin's role in managing PCOS and its potential to improve hormonal balance, oxidative stress, sleep quality, and mood, but reports no new clinical results.
9 citations
,
March 2020 in “Gene” In this study, certain genetic variations in the ESR1 and ESR2 genes were strongly associated with polycystic ovary syndrome and related metabolic issues in Tunisian women.
June 2025 in “British Journal of Dermatology” This study highlights the diverse prescribing and monitoring practices for low-dose oral minoxidil among dermatologists in the UK and Ireland, used widely for various hair loss conditions both as monotherapy and adjunctive therapy.
32 citations
,
February 2020 in “PTR. Phytotherapy research/Phytotherapy research” This review examines studies on rosemary extracts for immune function, noting promising in vitro and animal evidence but highlighting a lack of human data.
September 2025 in “Pediatric Dermatology” In this report, two pediatric patients with short anagen syndrome, a condition causing difficulty in growing long scalp hair, showed positive responses to low‐dose oral minoxidil treatment.
November 2014 in “International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery” This announcement explains the Fellow designation for hair restoration surgeons meeting specific educational criteria, without reporting new research findings.
2 citations
,
January 2022 in “Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery” This study suggests the mechanical effect of injecting a solution is more important than the solution's nature in treating atrophic acne scars, with UBM sonography proposed for objective assessment.
October 2025 in “JCI Insight” In a mouse model, this study found that an ethanol-based rosemary extract speeds up wound healing and reduces scarring by activating the TRPA1 nociceptor in sensory neurons, with carnosic acid identified as a key component.
12 citations
,
July 2016 in “Forensic science international” This study found that postmortem root banding in hair is likely due to the degradation of the intermacrofibrillar matrix in the cortex, with no damage to the cuticle observed.
4 citations
,
January 2024 in “Environmental Research” In this study, the authors reported that Sargassum wightii seaweed-based biostimulants improved soil quality and enhanced rice plant growth and yield by ameliorating acid soil effects, boosting antioxidant enzyme activity, and facilitating nitrogen uptake, photosynthesis, and water use efficiency.
April 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that retinoic acid and a retinol complex formulation showed different permeation and compound localization in a skin equivalent model, with unique lipid changes observed with only the retinol formulation.
September 2022 in “Women's healthcare” This review discusses various aspects of polycystic ovary syndrome, including its prevalence, diagnosis, and treatment options, and reports no new empirical results.
