This study found that basement membrane components and structures in mouse hair follicles are highly specialized for specific inter-tissue interactions, with laminin α5 playing a crucial role in hair cycle regulation and anchoring.

This study found that in mouse skin, the activation of stem/progenitor cells is synchronized across different niches during growth, with the glutamate transporter SLC1A3 playing a crucial role in this process.

This study indicates that the Sp6 gene is crucial for the development of skin, teeth, limbs, and lungs in mice, possibly through regulating apoptosis.

In this study, 1% procyanidin B-2 tonic significantly increased the number of total and terminal hairs on the scalp of male participants compared to a placebo after 6 months of use.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome phenotypes A and B had the highest prevalence of metabolic syndrome, and that the visceral adiposity index may help predict metabolic risk.

This study found that human iPSC-derived melanocytes from vitiligo patients successfully integrated into mouse hair follicles and epidermis, demonstrating potential for personalized therapy for depigmentation.

This study suggests that canonical BMP signaling, particularly involving Smad1 and Smad5, plays a critical role in hair follicle stem cell regulation and hair morphogenesis, with distinct roles from pSmad8.

This study describes various clinical phenotypes associated with FOXN1 mutations, finding that affected individuals may develop different severities of immunodeficiency based on their genetic mutations.

This study reports that miR-22 promotes cancer progression and metastasis by maintaining Wnt/β-catenin signaling and cancer stem cell function.

This study found that T-regulatory cells, specifically the FOXP3 CD39 subset, were significantly reduced in both circulation and hair follicles of alopecia areata patients compared to healthy subjects, suggesting potential therapeutic targets.

This study found that serine 44 in the N-terminal head domain of keratin 17 is phosphorylated in response to various stimuli affecting skin keratinocyte growth, linking K17 up-regulation with growth and stress responses in skin epithelium.

This study found that Wnt10b promotes melanocyte maturation and pigmentation in the hair bulbs of mice by activating canonical Wnt signaling.

This study found that the loss of Smad4 in keratinocytes reduces Dsg4 expression via disrupted BMP signaling, contributing to hair follicle degeneration and alopecia.

This review discusses the role of immune cells in mammalian hair cycle control and highlights their potential relevance to human hair cycling disorders, reporting no new clinical findings.

In this study, the combination of SCF and ET-1 was found to significantly enhance skin pigmentation and melanin content in human skin xenografts on SCID mice compared to either treatment alone.

This study found that a bacterial endophyte from Zea nicaraguensis effectively targets and colonizes plant root hair cells, promoting growth and solubilizing insoluble phosphorus for nutrient uptake.

This study observed that Endoglin is crucial for maintaining correct hair follicle cycling and stimulating hair follicle stem cell niches through feedback interactions involving Wnt/β-catenin and Bmp/Smad signaling pathways in a mouse model.

This study found that bio-based waterborne polyurethanes derived from castor oil may offer effective hair-styling performance without skin irritation and appear to be safer for the environment compared to traditional hair sprays.

This review discusses the structure and function of steroid nuclear receptors, particularly focusing on androgen receptor dysregulation in prostate cancer and androgen insensitivity syndromes, without reporting new experimental results.

This study found that applying topical imiquimod during mid and late telogen in mice activates hair follicle stem cells and influences immune cell infiltration, promoting hair cycle entry independently of Wnt signaling.

This article reviews androgen insensitivity syndrome and highlights the factors contributing to phenotypic diversity in 46,XY patients with AR gene mutations, reporting no new clinical results.

The study found that women with hyperandrogenic PCOS have higher levels of AKT1 and AKT2 proteins in their cells, which may lead to cell dysfunction.

This study found that all-trans and 9-cis retinoic acids increase steroid sulfatase activity in HL60 cells through mechanisms involving RARα/RXR heterodimers and multiple signaling pathways.

This article reviews the therapeutic use of interferons and other cytokines in various viral, tumorous, and inflammatory diseases, discussing their biological effects and potential future applications without presenting new experimental results.

This review discusses spironolactone's new roles in tumor immunosurveillance, DNA repair inhibition, and viral infection suppression, highlighting its potential to extend uses beyond traditional applications, but reports no clinical results.

This study found that bovine lactoferrin promotes hair growth in mice by enhancing dermal papilla cell proliferation through the Erk/Akt and Wnt signaling pathways.

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.
