This study found that both genetic and environmental factors influence appearance-related aging in women, with skin wrinkling, hair graying, and sun damage significantly affecting perceived age more than chronological age.

This study found that mutations in the K17 gene underlie both pachyonychia congenita type 2 and steatocystoma multiplex phenotypes, regardless of the specific mutation involved.

This review examines the histochemistry and keratinization processes of human hair, exploring the structural roles of keratin proteins, protein chains, and lipids, but offers no new results.

This study found that squamous cell carcinomas from hair follicle stem cells are more prone to epithelial to mesenchymal transition and metastasis than those from interfollicular epidermis, due to distinct chromatin landscapes.

This study characterizes gene expression patterns in embryonic hair follicle progenitors and their niche, identifying signaling pathways like axon guidance that may drive cellular rearrangements for hair follicle formation.

This study found that Wnt signalling activates hair follicle fate in hair follicle stem cells by relieving TCF3/4–TLE-mediated repression, with β-catenin being crucial for this process.

This study found that the administration of the mutant BRAF inhibitor dabrafenib in patients with metastatic melanoma was associated with various skin lesions, including keratinocytic proliferation that sometimes showed low-grade malignancy features.

This study found that in Arabidopsis thaliana, the interaction between extracellular leucine-rich repeat extensins and the receptor-like kinase FERONIA helps control vacuolar expansion, crucial for cellular elongation.

Stat3 helps skin heal but can also cause skin diseases if overactive.

In this study, demodicoses were found to be relatively common among immunocompetent patients, with a notable overlap with papulopustular rosacea.

This study introduces a hair transplantation method combining elliptical excision and micrografting, suggesting it provides significant cosmetic improvements for androgenetic alopecia.

The document concludes that the exact way alcohol causes harm to fetal development is unknown, but it significantly affects nutrient transport to the fetus and a safe level of alcohol during pregnancy is not determined.

In this study, researchers showed that Wnt ligands secreted by hair follicle epithelium are crucial for hair follicle regeneration and may be significant for treating hair disorders like alopecia.

This study found that in the absence of hair follicles, cutaneous wounds in mice showed delayed reepithelialization but eventually achieved normal wound closure after expanding the activated epidermis region.

This study found that sodium valproate effectively stopped or reduced seizures in patients with various types of epilepsy, with best results in absence and myoclonic seizures, though it caused temporary hair loss in some cases.

In this study, researchers found that quiescent stem cells resist immune attack due to downregulated antigen presentation, which may help explain the immune evasion of early cancer-initiating cells.

In this study, researchers successfully derived skin organoids from mouse pluripotent stem cells that spontaneously produce hair follicles, potentially aiding in hair growth research and in vitro drug testing.

This article reviews the structure and function of the skin and its importance for understanding skin diseases, without providing new clinical results.

This article discusses treatments for hirsutism and acne in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting that lower doses of current medications maintain efficacy while reducing cost and side effects, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that prepubertal girls have significantly higher levels of estrogens and androgen metabolites compared to age-matched boys, which may contribute to their earlier onset of puberty.

This study found that while sodium valproate improved seizure control in children with epilepsy, it often led to increased weight gain, with no severe side effects like liver disease or pancreatitis reported.

This review discusses epidermal stem cell diversity, revealing previously unrecognized differences in stem cell populations, but reports no new experimental results; it highlights the need for further exploration of stem cell interactions and quiescence.

Male and female mice have different skin thickness, and hormones affect their skin and hair growth differently.

This study suggests that fibromodulin may regulate transforming growth factor-β activity during scar formation, influencing the transition from fetal scarless repair to adult scar-forming repair in rats.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome reported a poorer health-related quality of life compared to women in the general population and patients with other medical conditions.

This study reports that a novel programmable device delivering VEGF through miniaturized needles significantly improved healing outcomes in diabetic mice's chronic wounds compared to traditional topical treatments.

The researchers reported that they predicted associations between certain components of MSC-conditioned medium and its ability to stimulate cell migration in vitro, identifying factors affecting its biological activity.

This study found that the p63 transcription factor plays a role in epidermal morphogenesis by regulating Satb1 expression, impacting chromatin architecture and gene expression in epidermal progenitor cells.

In this study, hyperandrogenemia in young women with polycystic ovary syndrome was linked to higher blood pressure, independent of factors like age, insulin resistance, obesity, or dyslipidemia.

This study demonstrates that bioengineered salivary gland transplants can fully regenerate gland function, producing saliva and restoring normal swallowing in salivary gland-defective mice, offering potential for xerostomia treatment.
