This study observed that nuclear β-catenin expression in non-small-cell lung carcinomas correlates with increased proliferation and loss of key cell-cycle checkpoints, suggesting an oncogenic advantage.

This study found that GLI2 plays a key role in activating follistatin, an activin/BMP antagonist, in response to hedgehog signaling in human epidermal cells, with implications for hair follicle development and basal cell carcinoma.

This review examines the potential of bimatoprost for treating various types of eyelash and eyebrow hypotrichosis, discussing its pharmacological properties but providing no new clinical results.

This study discovered a novel interaction between the vitamin D receptor and LEF1, essential for normal Wnt signaling in keratinocytes, which is crucial for regular hair cycling.

Bone-marrow and epidermal stem cells help heal wounds differently, with bone-marrow cells aiding in blood vessel formation and epidermal cells in hair growth.

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.

In this study, epidermal Notch activation increased jagged 1 expression, leading to skin changes like thickening and blistering, with these effects inhibited when jagged 1 was absent.

This study found that subchronic finasteride treatment in male rats altered neuroactive steroid levels and steroid receptor expression in the brain, with some changes persisting after drug withdrawal.

This study found that c-Jun is essential for vitamin D receptor expression, and the vitamin D receptor inhibits c-Jun-dependent cell death through non-classical mechanisms independent of vitamin D3.

Hair fibers interact through classical forces, which are influenced by treatments and products, important for hair care and other applications.

This study observed that selectively activating activin in the epidermis of mice enhanced reepithelialization during wound healing without altering the quality of the healed wound.

This study found that resveratrol and fisetin promoted hair growth in mice by inducing telomerase reverse transcriptase expression, which activates hair follicle stem cells and transitions follicles from a resting to a growth phase.

This study found that minoxidil prevents long-term serotonergic toxicity induced by MDMA in rats, primarily by opening mitochondrial KATP channels and involving Akt and MAP kinases in its neuroprotective mechanism.

This study found that the protein CCN2 in dermal papilla cells is a physiologically relevant suppressor of hair follicle formation by destabilizing β-catenin, which may help maintain stem cell quiescence.

This study found that MED1 deficiency in keratinocytes accelerates skin wound healing in young mice but delays healing in older mice, suggesting differential roles in epidermal regeneration with age.

This study found that dihydrotestosterone (DHT) may shorten the hair growth cycle through mechanisms like cell-cycle arrest and β-catenin downregulation in rat hair follicle cells.

TGF-β1 increases androgen receptor activity in hair loss, but Hic-5/ARA55 can counter this effect.

This study found that melanocyte progenitor cells are present in human subcutaneous adipose tissue and may differentiate into mature melanocytes, suggesting potential applications in treating skin diseases and rejuvenation.

In this mouse study, hair growth defects associated with the Gk5 null allele were partially alleviated by simvastatin treatment, suggesting GK5 plays a key role in skin-specific cholesterol regulation.

This study found that 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 significantly increased the expression and activity of vasculoprotective natriuretic peptide receptor-A in cultured inner medullary collecting duct cells, suggesting a potential mechanistic role in cardiovascular and renal benefits.

This study reported that pulverizing hair samples significantly improves the precision of testosterone measurement, with higher testosterone concentrations observed in men than in women.

This study suggests that specific combinations of human type I and II hair keratins, particularly K35-K85 and K36-K81, have distinct in vitro assembly properties that are significant for macrofibril formation.

This study found that higher Lnk expression in PCOS patients may contribute to insulin resistance by inhibiting insulin signaling pathways.

This study found that diphlorethohydroxycarmalol significantly increased prostaglandin $E_2$ synthesis in HaCaT human keratinocytes by upregulating COX-1 and COX-2 expression, suggesting potential benefits from elevated $PGE_2$ production.

This study found that taxol induces apoptosis in dermal papilla cells, affecting protein expression related to biological processes and potentially contributing to taxol-induced alopecia.

This study found that mutations in the Sgk3 gene cause defective hair follicle development and altered hair cycling in mice, with variable phenotypic outcomes depending on different dysfunction patterns of the SGK3 protein.

This study reports promising preliminary results for using monoclonal antibodies to identify cashmere fibers, highlighting observed immunological differences from wool keratins.

This study found that treatment with the pure antiandrogen Flutamide did not affect the estrous cycle or plasma levels of most hormones in female rats, supporting its potential use for treating hirsutism, acne, and alopecia in women.

In this study, researchers found that pigs with genetically disrupted ANTXR1 were resistant to Senecavirus A infection, showing no clinical symptoms, and provided a model for human GAPO syndrome, while confirming ANTXR1 as a receptor for the virus.

Mouse Scube3 affects teeth, tongue, vibrissae, and eye development, but not facial structure or limb growth.
