This study reported that in the California Ground Squirrel, certain elements bioaccumulate in hair, providing baseline data for environmental health assessments.

This study found that microplastics on the Lebanese Mediterranean coast transport various organic and inorganic pollutants, posing threats to marine organisms and potentially human health.

This review discusses the advancements and challenges in developing in vitro human skin models incorporating components like vasculature for drug testing and disease research, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reviews current treatments for alopecia areata, highlighting that despite various options like corticosteroids and immunosuppressives, their limited efficacy and potential side effects are challenges, while targeting specific cytokines has shown promise except with TNF inhibitors, which may worsen the condition.

This study reports on the biochemical characteristics of S100A3 protein in human hair cuticle, notably finding its N-terminal methionine is acetylated and has a slightly lower isoelectric point compared to the recombinant version.

This study found that Wnt ligands from CD133-positive dermal papilla cells are essential for maintaining hair growth by supporting cell signaling between different hair follicle structures.

In this animal study, cedrol treatment reduced chemotherapy-induced alopecia in mice by preventing hair follicle damage, while minoxidil did not prevent alopecia under similar conditions.

This study identified ectodin as a novel BMP inhibitor that modulates BMP signaling in ectodermal development by interacting with SHH and FGF pathways.

This study suggests that a hair follicle enzyme assay may predict response to minoxidil treatment for androgenetic alopecia with high sensitivity and specificity in a preliminary analysis.

Invasomes effectively deliver drugs through the skin and have potential for improved treatments.

This review discusses natural remedies and nanoparticle formulations for alopecia management and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing potential benefits of herbal treatments over synthetic therapies.

This study reports a case of GGCX syndrome in a 55-year-old Japanese male, characterized by PXE-like symptoms and coagulation deficiency, with an unreported phenotype of possible spinocerebellar degeneration.

Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.

This study found that dermal Shh signaling regulates specific dermal papilla signatures essential for maintaining hair follicle development, suggesting that the Shh-Noggin signaling loop is crucial for hair morphogenesis.

This study found that overexpressing the BMP inhibitor Noggin in transgenic mice led to a significant loss of nontylotrich hair follicles, suggesting a critical role for BMP signaling in hair follicle morphogenesis and cycling.

In this in vitro study, minoxidil, diazoxide, and the novel compound NNC 55-0118 increased hair follicle growth, supporting deer follicles as a viable bioassay for ATP-sensitive potassium channel modulators.

This article reviews insights into the pathogenesis of primary cicatricial alopecias, such as lichen planopilaris, provided by emerging technologies, but it does not report new clinical results.

This article reviews the mechanisms by which minoxidil stimulates hair growth and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that hair follicles in both mice and humans may serve as an important site for melatonin synthesis and signaling, potentially influencing hair cycle regulation by modulating keratinocyte apoptosis.

This study found that autophagy plays a role in sebaceous gland function and sebum composition control in mice lacking the Atg7 gene in keratinocytes.

This study demonstrated that β-catenin signaling in CD133+ dermal papilla cells enhances postnatal hair growth by accelerating the proliferation and differentiation of keratinocytes in the murine hair cycle.

This article reviews sebaceous immunobiology and highlights the complex role of sebaceous glands and sebocytes in skin barrier function and inflammation, particularly in acne pathogenesis, but reports no new results.

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.

This study reported that while topical minoxidil exhibits hair regrowth in androgenetic alopecia, oral minoxidil 5 mg/day was more effective than topical forms after six months, with low doses also potentially effective for women and other hair loss types.

This editorial proposes a new classification for alopecia areata that incorporates the SALT score and body hair involvement, aiming to improve the assessment and treatment outcomes.

This study found that treating paracoccidioidomycosis-infected mice with a nanoparticle formulation of itraconazole led to higher drug accumulation in lung, liver, and spleen tissues, improved treatment efficacy, and reduced side effects compared to traditional oral solutions.

This article discusses the minimal research on hair growth physiology and highlights Dr. Masumi Inaba's contributions to understanding androgenetic alopecia, but reports no new experimental results.

In this study, the researchers observed that Biofield Energy Treated herbal extracts enhanced hair growth and melanogenesis in C57BL/6 mice, suggesting its potential as a hair growth enhancer.

This study found that Ldh activity in hair follicle stem cell-mediated squamous cell carcinoma is not necessary for tumorigenesis, as its modulation did not affect the cancer's development or characteristics.

This study reviews current pharmacological treatments for alopecia, highlighting minoxidil, 5α-reductase inhibitors, JAK inhibitors, and other agents, and notes ongoing research aimed at improving their effectiveness and safety profiles.
