This study found that higher levels of the protein Flii were associated with enhanced hair follicle regeneration and longer hair fibers in a mouse model.

Trichotillomania, a disorder where people compulsively pull out their own hair, often starts around age 12, is more common in adult females, and can be treated with behavior therapy and medication.

This review discusses the concept of drug repositioning and highlights fragmin and protamine as emerging biomaterials for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, but it reports no new clinical results.

The document explains various skin conditions in cats and how to diagnose and treat them.

This study found that male 5α-reductase 2 knockout mice showed deficits in social dominance behaviors and reduced dopamine receptor binding in a brain region related to social ranking.

In this study, clozapine reduced suicide-related behaviors in a schizophrenia-like mouse model, but its effects on exploratory behavior were counteracted by the neurosteroid inhibitor finasteride.

In this study, researchers found that replacing natural aggregates with animal bones and human hair with increased microroughness may improve the mechanical strength and durability of concrete.

This review discusses causes of hair loss in cats, highlighting self-inflicted trauma due to flea allergy dermatitis, and presents no new clinical findings.

This article reviews how biomaterials and stem cells could advance regenerative medicine but does not report new results, emphasizing the potential of combining novel biomaterials with stem cells for effective therapies.

In this study, researchers developed a new variant of the Mercedes flap with releasing incisions for reconstructing medium-sized scalp defects, demonstrating complete defect closure without complications in three patients following a single operation with excellent aesthetic outcomes.

This study found that cefazolin-loaded silica nanoparticles embedded in polycaprolactone nanofibers successfully inhibited Staphylococcus aureus growth while maintaining stem cell viability, suggesting their potential use in wound healing.

This study found that scalp hair follicles had higher expression of cytokeratin 15 and distinct hair layers compared to other body regions, highlighting differences in hair follicle characteristics.

In this study, researchers formulated a hair tonic using various herbal extracts and reported effective antifungal and antibacterial properties, along with good consistency, spreadability, homogeneity, appearance, and pH balance.

This article explores how narratives around racial and ethnic minorities versus fat individuals during the Covid-19 pandemic influenced the framing of these groups as "at-risk," with disparities in blame and responsibility linked to structural racism and anti-obesity rhetoric.

In this study, cosyntropin-induced cortisol spikes did not affect hair cortisol concentration in captive grizzly bears, contrasting with stress responses observed in free-ranging bears during capture.

In this study, researchers found all donor sites except the neck region suitable for midfrontal hairline restoration in Southeast Asian women, with donor site hair density and diameter tending to decline with age.

Tissue expansion is a useful method for reconstructive surgery with good results and room for further enhancement.

This study found that treatment with cyproterone acetate and ethinylestradiol in hirsute women reduced testosterone and androstenedione levels, decreased hair growth, and increased cortisol levels without changing catecholamine excretion.

This study found that cocaine disrupted the relationship between certain brain androgen levels and sexual behavior in male rats, with dose-dependent effects on testosterone metabolism.

In this research, animal tests confirmed that chromium supplementation effectively maintains glycaemic and insulinaemic balance and affects certain hormone levels, but the authors note that clinical evidence for chromium's benefits in PCOS treatment remains sparse and inconsistent, warranting further exploration.

This study found that polyquaternium-68 at pH 9 achieved the greatest hair deposition, while polyquaternium-44 demonstrated the best wash resistance at pH 6.

This case report documents only the second known instance of congenital lymphadenoma, expanding the diagnostic possibilities for cutaneous lymphoepithelial tumors in children.
