This study found that Shi-Bi-Man significantly promotes hair regeneration in cynomolgus monkeys by increasing hair follicle stem cells and up-regulating metabolic pathways.

This study suggests that human skin locally synthesizes active sex steroid hormones, impacting inflammation, cell behavior, and wound healing, with potential implications for therapies in aging and impaired wound recovery.

This study proposes that seasonal alopecia and reproductive changes in six female fossas at the San Diego Zoo may be linked to hormonal changes associated with reproductive activity.

This study developed an improved reference genome for the African spiny mouse using long Nanopore sequencing reads, potentially aiding future research into the species' remarkable tissue regeneration capabilities.

Biotin deficiency in monkeys causes fur and skin issues, but 20 μg of biotin daily can prevent or cure it.

This study observed that during the postnatal development of gray short-tailed opossums, skin transitions from facilitating gas exchange through a dense capillary network at birth to supporting thermoregulation, with significant changes in skin thickness and structure occurring by 35 days old.

This review discusses the prevalence, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of zoophilic dermatophyte infections in small exotic mammals and reports no new clinical findings; it emphasizes the need for veterinary guidance and public awareness.

In this descriptive hospital-based study, researchers found that telogen effluvium was the most common cause of hair loss among women aged 20 to 40, with most cases occurring over 6 weeks to 6 months without an associated illness.

This review discusses the potential of stem cell-based therapies combined with artificial nerve grafts for improving recovery in animal models of severe peripheral nerve injury, highlighting the need for further research on their application to humans.

In this study, the researchers cloned and analyzed the CRABP I gene in Inner Mongolian cashmere goats, finding its highest mRNA expression at 90 days in embryo skin compared to later stages.

Pigs are a good model for studying human hair growth and disorders.

In this study, a ferret with multiple health issues was diagnosed with a malignant apocrine gland adenocarcinoma on the prepuce, highlighting the aggressive nature of such tumors in this species and suggesting further investigation into cytologic features could provide insights into tumor behavior.

This study found that finasteride reduced impulsivity in a rat model of pramipexole-induced probability discounting, possibly by normalizing D3 receptor expression in the nucleus accumbens.

This study reports that K7 expression patterns observed in mice are similar to those in humans, revealing previously unreported expression in the gastrointestinal tract, tongue, and various "hard" epithelial tissues.

This study found that the main structural proteins of tree frog toe pads, which aid in their adhesive properties, are alpha keratins that have evolutionary origins in early tetrapods.

In this study, the researchers reported extensive gene loss and high pseudogenization rates of α-keratin genes in cetaceans compared to terrestrial mammals, likely linked to hair loss and aquatic adaptations.

This study observed that mouse preputial glands share general characteristics with rat glands but differ in their intimate association with a hair follicle and absence of proteinaceous granules.

In this study, researchers observed that telogen hair was more prevalent than anagen hair in both male and female agoutis over a one-year period in Teresina-PI, regardless of dry or rainy seasons, with no significant differences in dermal follicular volume between the sexes.

This review discusses the development, regulation, and aging of the human hair follicle pigmentary system and suggests potential for reversing hair graying by manipulating follicle melanocytes in vitro, but reports no clinical results.

This study found that decreased allopregnanolone levels through inhibition or intrauterine growth restriction in guinea pigs were linked to altered brain development markers, suggesting a role for neurosteroids in fetal brain protection and development.

This review summarizes research on androgens' roles in female reproductive function, noting their impact on IVF outcomes and the development of PCOS, and highlights the need for mechanism-based therapies.

In this study, researchers found that human fingerprint ridges are formed through a modified hair follicle developmental process and spatial patterns influenced by specific signaling pathways.

In this study, bezafibrate treatment improved certain aging-like features in a mouse model with mitochondrial dysfunction, but did not enhance muscle function or lifespan.

This review discusses how studying regenerative biology in certain mammalian models could enhance our understanding of complex tissue regeneration, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that simvastatin interfered with insulin-induced VEGF expression and keratinocyte proliferation during skin repair in mice, effects that could be reversed by mevalonate.

The study observed that testosterone reduced knee range of motion in ovariectomized female rats, potentially by downregulating specific relaxin receptor isoforms, with its effects mediated via dihydro-testosterone.
