This study found that high levels of μ-crystallin in skeletal muscle are associated with greater fat metabolism and a shift in gene expression towards slower muscle function.

This case report describes the first dermoscopic evaluation of alopecia areata-like disease in a dog, where the condition mirrored human cases in terms of clinical presentation and treatment response.

This study identified three subgroups of women with PCOS with distinct androgen profiles, finding that the subgroup with adrenal-derived androgen excess had the highest insulin resistance and rates of hirsutism and hair loss.

This study identified polymorphisms in HGT-KRTAP7-1 and KRTAP8-1 genes in Argentine llamas that may impact fiber characteristics by altering amino acid residues critical for keratin-associated protein properties.

This review discusses the association between certain dermatological diseases and increased cardiovascular risk, highlighting the need for clinicians to address cardiovascular risk factors in these patients.

This study found that in Pomeranian dogs with alopecia X, dermoscopic evaluations can supplement diagnoses, and transverse skin biopsy sections better assess hair follicle density and identify growth arrest phases compared to longitudinal sections.

This study found that fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution in Hispanic male patients often resembles androgenetic alopecia, with a tendency for earlier onset compared to European and North American populations.

This study found that incorporating Canavalia ensiformis lectin into alginate and carboxymethylcellulose films enhanced angiogenic factor expression, suggesting these biopolymer films could be an effective alternative for wound treatment.

This study found that ethosomes containing 30% ethanol slightly improved the targeting of dutasteride to hair follicles in vitro, with a higher targeting factor compared to dried ethosomes and controls after 24 hours on porcine skin.

This study observed that dermoscopy is a useful technique for distinguishing between infundibular keratinising acanthoma and follicular cysts in dogs, with specific dermoscopic features noted for each.

Higher pre-pregnancy BMI is linked to more stress in mothers and more behavioral problems in two-year-old children.

This study found that dutasteride-loaded transfersomes, compared to traditional liposomes, better target hair follicles by releasing the drug in a more controlled manner, as shown in vitro with enhanced follicular targeting (Tf = 0.32 versus 0.15, p < 0.005) using porcine ear skin.

In this case report, proliferative, lymphocytic, infundibular mural folliculitis and dermatitis have been documented in a female Labrador retriever in a location outside North America for the first time, detailing the dog's clinical symptoms, histopathological findings, and treatment.

This study found that human epidermal stem cells can adapt to small temperature variations via mTOR signaling, and that prolonged mTORC1 inhibition supports stem cell maintenance.

This study found that fibrosis-associated trochanters in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia are enriched with hair follicle stem cells and may indicate a disrupted stem cell niche contributing to scarring.

This study suggests that dermoscopy provides additional insights for diagnosing pattern alopecia in short coated dogs, beyond what is visible through standard dermatological examination.

This study found considerable variation in hair shaft proteomic profiles among Caucasian, African-American, Kenyan, and Korean subjects, with individual and site-specific differences observed.

This study used proteomic profiling to reveal significant individual and site-specific differences in human hair shaft proteins, which may improve the differentiation of hair based on ethnic origin and individual identity.

This case report describes the first known instances of male androgenetic alopecia with trichoteiromania, suggesting self-induced hair loss can occur alongside patterned miniaturization of hair.

This study reports that androgenetic alopecia patients exhibit reduced CK15 and tropoelastin expression and increased cellular senescence markers, indicating tissue damage in affected hair follicles and surrounding structures.

This study found that minicircle-based gene therapy significantly lowered total homocysteine levels and improved liver CBS activity in a mouse model of CBS deficiency.

This review discusses sex-based differences in immune responses, focusing on genetic, hormonal, and microbiome factors influencing infections like COVID-19, and reports no clinical results.

This study found that the ablation of Esrp1 and Esrp2 disrupts epithelial tight junctions by affecting Arhgef11 isoform expressions, highlighting a potential mechanistic link between splicing alterations and epithelial barrier defects.

This article reviews the biology of epithelial stem cells and their role in tissue self-renewal, maintenance, and regeneration, and it highlights the clinical implications of understanding their signaling pathways, but it presents no new clinical findings.

This study developed molecular signatures for dermal papilla cells and their niche, uncovering novel signaling regulators and genes linked to hair disorders, which may inform future hair development research.

This research discusses how epithelial stem cells in the skin maintain normal homeostasis, contribute to wound repair, and highlights the importance of these processes, as defects can lead to skin diseases including cancers, but provides no new experimental results.

This review explores the role of TGF-β superfamily pathways in stem cell environments and their implications for tissue regeneration and cancer development, reporting no new experimental results.

This review explores the mechanisms of adult stem cell self-renewal, using skin as a model, and reports no new results but raises important unanswered questions in the field.

This essay discusses the establishment, maintenance, and role of skin stem cells in tissue homeostasis, wound repair, and their relation to skin cancer, without reporting new experimental findings.

This review discusses the rationale for targeting 5α-reductase isoenzymes in prostate cancer prevention and treatment, highlighting the potential benefits of using inhibitors like dutasteride and finasteride but reports no new experimental results.
