This study found that knocking out vinculin in mouse skin disrupts bulge stem cell quiescence by impairing force generation and mechanical stability of adherens junctions.

This study observed that beef cattle with certain prolactin receptor gene mutations, known as slick mutations, demonstrated improved post-weaning growth and temperature regulation in a hot, humid climate compared to other genotypes, suggesting genotype influences growth efficiency and heat tolerance.

This study found that milk protein grafting and cross-linking treatment significantly improved the pilling resistance of rabbit hair knitted fabric.

This review critically evaluates the evidence for SARMs' tissue selectivity and suggests their clinical benefits over traditional androgens are not yet well-supported by robust evidence, underscoring the need for further head-to-head trials.

This study found that a genetic variation in SRD5A2 influences the severity of PTSD symptoms in a sex-specific manner among traumatized African-American males.

This study introduced mechanical setups to analyze the mechanical properties of root hairs in Arabidopsis thaliana, finding that axial stiffness primarily relates to tip compression and turgor pressure, confirmed by independent methods adapted from work on animal cells.

This article reviews the causes and treatments of fine rhytids, highlighting the potential effectiveness of laser rejuvenation therapies but presents no new clinical results.

This study characterized the SARM PF-05314882, finding it demonstrates anabolic activity in rats with minimal effects on the prostate, seminal vesicles, and luteinizing hormone levels.

This study reported that mannan oligosaccharides improved the fur quality, immune response, antioxidant status, and gut microbiota of fur-growing raccoon dogs, suggesting they could potentially replace antibiotics in their diet.

This study presented a case series of erosive pustular dermatosis on the scalps of elderly patients, noting unusual presentation with hypergranulation tissue and unique dermoscopic vascular patterns, diverging from typical manifestations.

In this case report, a 37-year-old patient with APECED showed significant clinical improvement, including hair regrowth and resolution of skin issues, after 11 months of treatment with ruxolitinib, highlighting the potential of JAK inhibitors in managing this complex autoimmune disease.

This study found that increased mRNA expression of the Ectodysplasin-A2-Receptor, observed across multiple species and tissues, may exacerbate inflammation during aging, suggesting potential benefits of blocking EDA2R/EDA-A2 signaling.

This study found that RXR and RAR proteins were detectable in normal human skin, suggesting they may play a role in epidermal cell differentiation and hair and gland physiology.

This study found that topical ruxolitinib protected Lgr5+ skin stem cells and maintained skin homeostasis in skin GVHD, unlike corticosteroids.

This study found that rabbit skin histology revealed changes in collagen and elastic fibers after soaking, dehairing, and tanning processes, impacting fiber tightness and fur removal.

This study found that RCS-01 cell therapy for aged skin was well tolerated and associated with increased gene expression related to extracellular matrix homeostasis, suggesting potential skin improvement.

This study in Pudukottai district found that among 5870 individuals attending rural health camps, 1468 had skin complaints, with non-infectious conditions like eczema being most common, followed by fungal, bacterial, and arthropod infections.

Hair can't be as strong as Rapunzel's because it's impractical to scale up due to defects.

This case study in an 8-month-old mixed-breed dog with symptoms and histopathological findings supports a diagnosis of hereditary junctional epidermolysis bullosa, although specific genetic mutations weren't identified.

This study found that the weak tensile strength of pili torti hair may result from loose keratin intermediate filaments due to abnormalities in disulfide bonds.

Radiofrequency devices effectively tighten skin without surgery.

This study found no qualitative skin differences during development between mutant hairless USP mice and BALB/c mice, except for enlarged cysts in the hairless strain.

This study observed defects in hair cuticle cross-linking in some, but not all, mouse mutants with sparse or structurally unsound hair.

In this study, researchers developed an open-source browser-based tool to enhance the reproducibility and accuracy of SALT score calculations from scalp photos, aimed particularly at assessing partial regrowth in alopecia areata patients on JAK inhibitor therapy.

In this study, eight patients with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets who share a specific VDR mutation showed improved clinical symptoms except alopecia after up to 11 years of treatment.

This study introduces a modular fiber model to investigate how changes in microstructural properties of wool affect its critical buckling load, highlighting potential uses and areas needing further research in wool fiber biophysics.

This study found that due to variability in measurements, hair pluckability is not a reliable indicator of adult nutritional status, although it may hold potential in certain emergency situations if improved for consistency.

This study found no significant difference in SARS-CoV2 IgG seroconversion rates between patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases treated with targeted immune-modulating therapies and those on conventional systemic treatments.
