This study reports previously unrecognized cellular complexity in growing mouse incisors, suggesting species-specific differences in cell dynamics between mouse and human teeth related to growth and differentiation.

This study found that stress increases the number of peptidergic nerve fibers and mast cell activity in mouse skin, suggesting a significant neuro-immune interaction under stress.

This study found that caffeine can stimulate hair growth in vitro and counteract testosterone-induced growth suppression in hair follicles from male AGA patients.

This study found that feather patterning is primarily self-organizing and dynamic, relying on both genetic and epigenetic controls, with implications for similar processes like fingerprints and pigmentation.

In their study, Tim Spector and colleagues identified a new genetic association at chromosome 20p11.22 with male-pattern baldness, confirmed by the increased risk when combined with a known androgen receptor gene variant.

This study reports that 2-(1-Adamantyl)-4H-thiochromen-4-on-6-O-sulfamate is the most potent steroid sulfatase inhibitor identified so far, exhibiting 170-fold higher activity than the lead compound estrone sulfamate.

This study found that overexpression of Smad7 in transgenic mice led to severe alterations in multiple epithelial tissues, resulting in early death after birth.

This study describes the PandaOmics platform, which uses AI and bioinformatics to identify new therapeutic targets and biomarkers for various diseases, demonstrating validation in laboratory and animal studies.

In this study, high-dose dutasteride significantly reduced several core symptoms of PMDD compared to placebo, supporting the role of neurosteroids in this condition.

Vitamin D receptor mutations can cause alopecia by affecting hair growth genes.

This study suggests that nerve growth factor plays a crucial role in the stress-induced termination of hair growth in mice, and its antagonism might offer a therapeutic approach to mitigate stress-related hair loss.

This review discusses the medicinal chemistry of steroid sulfatase inhibitors for estrogen- and androgen-dependent disorders but reports no new clinical results.

This study documents that trichohyalin acts as a multi-functional cross-bridging protein in the inner root sheath of mouse hair follicles, enhancing mechanical strength by linking keratin filaments to the cell envelope.

This abstract reviews hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, a rare genetic condition causing severe early childhood rickets, and reports no new results; effective treatment typically requires high doses of calcium to address hypocalcemia and secondary hyperparathyroidism.

This study found several microRNA-related genetic variants linked to epithelial ovarian cancer risk, with a notable association at the 17q21.31 region, suggesting potential new susceptibility genes.

This study found that activation of the TRPV3 ion channel inhibits human hair growth by affecting hair follicles and outer root sheath keratinocytes.

In this study, sequences upstream of the TGM3 gene were found to regulate epithelial-specific gene expression in keratinocytes, suggesting potential applications in gene therapy.

This study concluded that daily treatment with 1 mg finasteride did not affect spermatogenesis or semen production in young men and had small, reversible effects on prostate volume and serum PSA.

Lack of vitamin D receptor increases skin tumor risk by boosting hedgehog signaling.

This study found that epidermal VEGF is crucial for maintaining skin barrier function in mice and may help explain psoriasis development following skin trauma due to its effects on angiogenesis and hyperplasia.

In this study, fetal rat wounds at gestational age 16 days healed without scar formation and resembled normal skin architecture, unlike those at 18 days which resulted in scarring and lack of hair follicles.

This study found that overexpression of PKCepsilon in transgenic mice reduced papilloma development but accelerated carcinoma formation in a skin tumor promotion model.

This study found that small proline-rich proteins modify the biomechanical properties of cornified cell envelopes in rodent forestomachs, potentially affecting the tissue's ability to withstand mechanical stress.

In this study, researchers found that the absence of type I or type II keratins in mice leads to severe skin barrier defects, highlighting keratins' crucial role in epidermal structure and function.

This article discusses the FDA's decision not to approve 5α-reductase inhibitors for prostate cancer prevention, citing an increase in high-grade tumors but no mortality evidence, and reports no new results.

The researchers reported that fluconazole was only modestly effective for treating sporotrichosis, particularly for osteoarticular or visceral cases, and is best considered a second-line treatment.

This guideline review discusses current symptoms, diagnostic approaches, and treatments for Long- and Post-COVID, based on today's knowledge, and emphasizes its practical application with ongoing updates as new insights emerge.

This review highlights recent advances in chitosan-based nanoparticles (CS NPs) for drug delivery, discussing their modifications, preparation methods, production with organic and inorganic materials, and their latest implementations in the field, emphasizing the role of CS NPs in improving drug transport and release properties.

In this study, significant elevations of DHA and testosterone were associated with pubic hair development and voice changes in boys during puberty.

In this study, the researchers reported that Notch/CSL signaling is crucial for hair follicle differentiation, with Wnt5a signaling and FoxN1 acting as mediators in mice.
