This study found that a single X-radiation treatment in rat skin reduced collagen concentration over multiple hair-cycles by diminishing the fibroblasts' capacity for proline hydroxylation, potentially contributing to delayed skin lesions.

This study observed that rhizobacterial strain RT3 significantly improved drought tolerance in lettuce by increasing survival rates and fresh biomass after rewatering, with metabolites such as proline and glycine enhancing stress resilience.

This study concluded that Glycolon is the preferred suture material for tooth extraction surgery due to its superior mechanical properties and capillarity compared to other materials.

This study found that the unique functions of keratin 16 are likely determined by its tail domain, challenging the previous hypothesis about the role of the helix 1B subdomain.

A new mutation in the HR gene causes hair loss in a specific family.

Defective protein folding due to a mutation is key in ANE syndrome.

This study suggests that the ANE syndrome mutation in yeast Nop4, analogous to human RBM28, disrupts protein folding and protein-protein interactions, contributing to ribosomal dysfunction.

This study presents evidence that keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome is caused by a mutation in the connexin 26 gene, expanding the gene's known involvement in various disorders.

In this study, a novel mutation in the glucocorticoid receptor gene was identified in a young woman, impairing glucocorticoid signaling and leading to generalized glucocorticoid resistance.

This study identified two key pentapeptide quasi-repeats in human keratin-associated proteins, which are similar to motifs found in sheep wool.

This study identifies a new mutation in the Scd1 gene in a strain of Kunming mice, causing skin and hair defects with the mildest impact among similar mutations.

This report describes a case of epidermolytic hyperkeratosis in a newborn and her mother, both possessing a specific KRT1 gene mutation known to cause this skin disorder.

This study analyzed changes in the microbiota during antler velvet regeneration in sika deer and found significant differences in microbial community composition between 15 and 30 days post-pedicle casting, highlighting the potential roles of specific bacteria in wound healing and tissue regeneration.

This study found that dominant mutations in the mouse agouti gene lead to maturity-onset obesity, with weight increases starting around 4 weeks and peaking between 8 and 17 months.

This study outlines a hair regrowth treatment targeting hair follicle stem cells, 5-alpha reductase pathway, and microinflammation using PDGF and VEGF, but reports no clinical results.

This review evaluates current research on how hormonal changes due to aging impact voice quality, concluding the vocal cords are sensitive to hormonal fluctuations throughout life but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Hex gene expression patterns in chick embryo dorsal skin during feather bud development suggest a significant role in initiating feather morphogenesis.

This review discusses the cornification process of epidermal keratinocytes in forming the skin barrier and reports no new results; it emphasizes the importance for diagnosis and treatment of skin disorders.

This narrative review describes the components of human hair and their nutritional importance but reports no clinical results; the authors suggest dietary sulfur amino acids are essential for hair health.

New treatments may restore cancer-blocking proteins, slow prostate cancer, identify drug targets, and potentially regrow hair.

New treatments for cancer and skin disorders show promise in disrupting harmful cell interactions and promoting hair growth.

New cancer treatments show promise in reducing tumor growth and improving skin regeneration in mice.

A protein called FGF9 helps regenerate hair follicles in mice after skin damage, and increasing FGF9 could potentially help human hair growth.

In this report, a 17-year-old boy received successful scalp reduction surgery for alopecia due to a thermal burn, achieving excellent cosmetic results without hypertrophic or keloidal scarring.

The researchers reported that using extenders during scalp reductions increased effectiveness by 30 to 86% and prevented "stretch-back" in subsequent procedures.

Hair grafts improved the look of a man's leg after an accident and the patient was happy with the results.

This article discusses the art and technique of hair transplantation, noting the importance of donor hair density and improved hairline designs, and reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews surgical hair replacement techniques for bald patients dissatisfied with hairpieces and reports that various options provide good results with minimal side effects, emphasizing the importance of frontal area design for a natural appearance.

This review discusses gender-linked skin differences, such as hormone metabolism and sebum production, and reports no new findings; it suggests these insights might inform male-specific dermatological treatments or cosmetic products.

In this study, researchers found that TCDD exposure accelerated differentiation and altered gene expression in human epidermal cells, indicating the epidermal barrier as a target of TCDD-activated AHR.
