This study found that SARS-CoV-2 hijacks the host factor IGF2BP1 to stabilize its RNA and enhance translation, and identified Cepharanthine and Trifluoperazine as potential treatments against the virus.

This study found that mice with a mutant CDP/Cux protein lacking the homeodomain showed severely impaired growth, high postnatal mortality, and reduced fertility, highlighting CDP/Cux's role in developmental regulation.

This study found that newborn mouse skin organoids can robustly grow hair in vivo, while adult organoids require specific interventions to restore their hair-forming ability.

In this study, researchers identified a specific T cell receptor associated with carbamazepine-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions, demonstrating its potential for therapeutic development in patients with the HLA-B*15:02 genotype.

In this study, researchers identified that upon tissue injury in a mouse model, epidermal cells at the wound edge convert to an embryonic-like state with SOX11 and SOX4 playing a central role in modulating epidermal development and cell migration genes.

This study found that cortisone reductase deficiency is caused by inactivating mutations in the H6PD gene, affecting cortisol metabolism by preventing 11β-HSD1 enzyme function.

This study found that sympathetic nerves and arrector pili muscles form a niche that modulates hair follicle stem cell activity, revealing their role in hair follicle regeneration.

This study found that activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in mouse testes promotes spermatogonial differentiation and reduces the stem cell pool, with SHISA6 inhibiting this process and maintaining stem cell characteristics.

This study demonstrated that dominant mutations in mouse gasdermin A3 disrupt mitochondrial oxidative stress regulation, suggesting a gain-of-function effect on epidermal differentiation.

This study identified that a deficiency in the palmitoyl transferase enzyme, due to a mutation in the Zdhhc13 gene, led to severe physiological abnormalities in mice, including skin, bone, and systemic amyloid issues.

This study found that mTOR signaling plays a crucial role in activating hair follicle stem cells by balancing BMP-mediated repression, essential for hair regeneration.

This study found that securinine and ajmaline significantly inhibited hepatocellular carcinoma cell viability and induced apoptosis, with securinine showing lower toxicity to normal liver cells.

This study found that the transcription factors Msx2 and Foxn1 are crucial for maintaining Notch1 expression in the hair follicle matrix, which is necessary for proper hair differentiation.

This study found that overexpression of Hoxc13 in GC13 mouse models affects hair follicle differentiation by interacting with medulla-specific genes, particularly Foxq1, suggesting a regulatory pathway for medulla differentiation.

This study found that the creation of hair follicle lumens in mice is driven by the outward migration of keratin 79-positive cells, suggesting a novel mechanism for generating hollow cores in hair follicles.

This study found that ZDHHC13 deficiency in mice is associated with abnormal liver function, lipid metabolism issues, and impaired mitochondrial function, highlighting ZDHHC13's regulatory role in liver metabolism.

This study found that at least four different human sulfotransferase activities contribute to the sulfation of minoxidil, complicating predictions of individual responses based on ST levels.

This study identified five mutations in the gene LSS in individuals with unexplained hypotrichosis simplex, highlighting a potential role of mislocalized LSS proteins in disrupting hair follicle biology.

This study found that WNT10A is significantly upregulated in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and is associated with enhanced tumor cell migration, invasion, and poor survival.

In this study, miR-218-5p was found to enhance hair shaft growth and positively regulate the Wnt signaling pathway by targeting SFRP2 during skin and hair follicle development.

This study found that Brg1, a chromatin-remodeling enzyme, plays a critical role in hair regeneration and early epidermal repair by regulating bulge stem cells through a Brg1-Shh interaction.

This review discusses updated treatment guidelines for alopecia areata in Japan, highlighting new options like corticosteroid pulse therapy, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the antiandrogen drug enzalutamide reduced TMPRSS2 levels and significantly decreased SARS-CoV-2 entry and infection in lung cells, supporting further clinical trials for COVID-19 treatment.

In this study, male rats exposed in utero to low-dose chemical mixtures had permanent reproductive tract alterations, suggesting additive effects even at doses below individual adverse levels.

This study observed that Ptprq mutant mice exhibit significant abnormalities in hair bundle structure and vestibular dysfunction, suggesting similar issues may contribute to hearing loss and vestibular problems in humans with PTPRQ mutations.

This study reports the development of the first rodent model for androgenetic alopecia, demonstrating that overexpression of androgen receptors in mice delays hair regeneration and can be used to test new treatments.

This review focuses on neuroactive steroids' influence on GABA-ergic signaling and discusses challenges in developing them for various therapeutic uses, citing recent excitement from FDA approval of allopregnanolone for postpartum depression but reporting no new results.

This paper discusses mechanisms by which various chemicals disrupt male sexual differentiation, concluding that mixture risk assessments should include a broader set of compounds beyond phthalates to address cumulative reproductive health risks.

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 study found that Par3 plays a crucial role in maintaining epidermal homeostasis by regulating Rho/actomyosin contractility and ensuring mitotic accuracy, with potential implications for other self-renewing epithelia.
