This study identified a new gene, mrp4, in mice, which suggests it may have a unique role in the growth and development of hair follicles in the ears and tails.

This study found that minoxidil induced cardiovascular toxicity in marmosets at higher doses than those affecting dogs, potentially due to the drug's exaggerated pharmacological effects.

This study suggests that human embryonic stem cells may improve skin graft quality and functionality by enabling the identification and amplification of early ectodermal progenitors, pending confirmation from preclinical studies.

This study found that finasteride significantly reduced dihydrotestosterone levels but did not provide clear evidence of impaired libido or erectile function compared to placebo in men.

This study demonstrated that bioluminescence imaging of NG2+ cells in transgenic rats allows in vivo monitoring of hair follicle cycles to study hair growth and follicle regeneration.

This study found that disrupting the PRL gene in mice alters the timing of hair cycling events, causing earlier molts and changes in hair characteristics, particularly affecting female mice more significantly.

This study suggests that minoxidil may serve as a suitable reference drug for high permeability classification in the Biopharmaceutics Classification System due to its consistent permeability across different intestinal segments and pH levels.

This study reports that transplanted mouse hair follicles restored piloerection ability and connected properly with host tissues, suggesting potential for advanced hair restoration therapies.

This article discusses the potential of using human hair follicles as a model to study prolactin's regulation and activities but reports no new experimental findings; the authors suggest further research in this area.

This study observed that female mice with disrupted 5α-reductase 1 showed increased insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis, suggesting altered glucocorticoid metabolism contributes to metabolic disorders.

This study found that aged C57BL/6 mice sub-strains exhibit distinct aging patterns, including differences in survival rates, body weight changes, and disease incidences, providing valuable insights for geriatric research using these mice models.

This review discusses the wound healing process and the factors contributing to abnormal scarring after thermal injuries, but it reports no new clinical results.

This essay discusses the role of the nail in mammalian digit tip regeneration and explores whether nail stem cells are solely responsible for this regenerative ability, with no new results presented.

In this animal study, the ketogenic diet was associated with more severe biotin deficiency in biotin-deficient mice, suggesting that biotin supplementation is important when following this diet.

In this study, researchers found that the absence of P-selectin delays inflammatory cell recruitment and reepithelialization in fetal wounds, although scar formation still occurs in later gestation wounds.

This review discusses the importance of heme oxygenase in skin physiology and disease, but it reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight its potential as a treatment target for conditions like atopic dermatitis and psoriasis.

This study describes a novel hairless mutant rat strain, F344-Hr(krh), developed via ENU mutagenesis, which provides a model for skin disease and potentially focal glomerulosclerosis due to specific genetic mutations.

This study found that the antidepressant-like effect of fluoxetine in mice was only observed when a 5-minute pretest session was conducted, and this effect was blocked by the TSPO antagonist PK11195.

This study demonstrated that allopregnanolone administration caused significant scratching in atopic dermatitis mice, and ethanol-induced scratching may be linked to increased brain allopregnanolone levels.

This study observed that gerbils exhibit a different wound healing mechanism compared to mice, with lower TGF-B1 expression and distinct tissue responses, yet achieve similar healing outcomes.

This study found that an imbalance of selenium in a C57BL/6 mouse model led to hair loss with color change and was linked with changes in hair follicle apoptosis markers.

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.

This paper introduces a new microscopy technique to measure biomagnetic fields of human hair follicles using Prussian Blue Stain mixed with iron particles, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that age-related regenerative decline in hair follicles may be due to an imbalance of signals affecting stem cell activation, with follistatin potentially promoting renewal.

This study found that castration increased 5 alpha-reductase activity in the sebaceous glands of male hamsters, but administering testosterone propionate or 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone inhibited this effect.

This summary reviews the conflicting reports regarding 17β‐estradiol's effects on hair follicle growth, highlighting potential estrogen receptor-mediated impacts and calling for further research.

This study suggests that paeoniflorin's protective effects on brain astrocytes may be mediated by TSPO and neurosteroids biosynthesis.

This study concluded that cyproterone acetate alone produced antiandrogenic effects on the female gerbil prostate, while ethinyloestradiol alone stimulated estrogenic activity, and their combination led to prostatic lesions.

This study found that administering Neem ethanol extract to pregnant and lactating rats did not cause developmental abnormalities or toxicity in the offspring at tested doses.

This article reviews the possible therapeutic activities of Angelica gigas Nakai root extracts and their components, noting their potential effects on neuro-cognitive, metabolic, and other health conditions, and reports no new clinical results.
