This review discusses the growing use of scalp hair for elemental analysis in various fields and highlights advancements in analysis techniques, including the future potential of laser ablation ICP-MS, but reports no new clinical results.

This study applied semantic text-mining to identify phenotypes linked to over 6,000 diseases, demonstrating that these phenotypes can accurately identify known disease-associated genes, creating a human disease network based on phenotypic similarity.

This study reported that the PM-DBiGRU model enhances aspect-level sentiment classification in drug reviews, outperforming existing methods on the newly proposed SentiDrugs dataset.

The conclusion is that androgenetic alopecia and senescent alopecia have unique gene changes, suggesting different causes and potential treatments for these hair loss types.

This study explored hair follicle gene expression in Inner Mongolia Cashmere goats and identified potential regulators of the transition between growth phases, including IL17RB and ZNF genes.

This study found that colchicine treatment significantly reduced hair fiber elongation in cultured hair follicles and altered protein expression and activity in dermal papilla cells, suggesting a role for the ubiquitin-proteasome system in its effects.

This study identified differentially expressed mRNAs and lncRNAs in Hu sheep hair follicles, suggesting certain genes and pathways are involved in the development of wool curvature patterns.

This study identified four proteins that differ between Type III and non-Type III hair in Yangtze River Delta white goats, contributing to understanding the development of high-quality brush hair.

In this study, researchers analyzed spaceflight data from various sources and found that skin issues during spaceflight are linked to DNA damage, mitochondrial dysregulation, and gene alterations, while also highlighting the skin's adaptability post-flight.

This study reveals that β-catenin and retinoic acid are key regulators in the gene networks controlling the fate of skin appendages, such as scales and feathers.

This study found that a novel R343H mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene impairs its transcription activity, contributing to hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets and alopecia in the affected family.

The study characterized the transcriptional changes in porcine SKP cells transitioning to fibroblast-like cells, indicating potential roles for specific signaling pathways in this cell fate transition.

This study identified 71 SNPs linked to black wool traits in Qira sheep and found that specific mutations in the TYRP1 gene significantly correlate with coat color variations, providing insights for their genetic selection and conservation.

In this case-control study, researchers did not find genome-wide significant genetic variants for trichotillomania, but cases had higher polygenic risk for psychiatric disorders and certain neuropsychiatric-associated copy number variants.

This study developed a quantitative method using SDS-PAGE and MALDI-TOF mass spectroscopy to accurately determine animal species from hair fibers, validated against standard samples and optical microscopy.

This study found that in Liaoning cashmere goats, overexpression of the PIP5K1A gene enhances skin fibroblast proliferation, while interference with this gene reverses melatonin-induced proliferation, and PIP5K1A regulates certain miRNA expressions, suggesting a role in improving cashmere yield and quality.

In this case report, researchers diagnosed a 12-year-old girl with a nevus sebaceus of Jadassohn, characterized by a yellowish-pink plaque on the scalp and a genetic variant, following previous misdiagnosis as alopecia areata.

This study found that transcriptome profiling of cashmere goat skin revealed key genes and pathways involved in hair follicle initiation, differentiation, and maturation, which are critical for improving fleece production.

The LRRK2-G2019S mutation in Parkinson's disease has a lifetime penetrance of 25-35%, and finasteride may help reduce symptoms in adult male Tourette syndrome patients.

This study revealed that differential gene and protein expression in the "Yufen I" H line chicken breed is crucial for Columbian plumage coloration, particularly in the melanogenesis pathway.

This chapter reviews surface plasmon resonance (SPR) methodology and its applications in basic science and human disease without reporting new clinical results.

This meta-analysis found that dutasteride was more effective than finasteride in increasing hair count and improving photographic assessments for men with androgenetic alopecia, while both drugs had similar rates of sexual dysfunction-related adverse effects.

The researchers reported that in hairless mice, epidermal cell division orientations and epidermal thickness varied by body site, with dorsal and ear epidermis primarily dividing parallel to the basement membrane, unlike hind paw and tail epidermis.

This study found that the PSEN1-P242LfsX11 mutation in hidradenitis suppurativa influences cytokine and chemokine expression in macrophages, potentially affecting inflammatory responses.

This study found that DHT treatment led to reduced cell growth, increased cell death, cell cycle arrest, ROS production, and senescence in normal human dermal papilla cells, potentially mediated by altered miRNA expression.

This meta-analysis found that chromium supplementation was associated with decreased insulin resistance but increased testosterone levels in women with PCOS, with no significant benefits for other metabolic or hormonal indexes.

This study found that finasteride alone is highly effective in preventing Candida albicans urinary biofilms and shows synergistic activity with fluconazole in vitro, suggesting potential for further clinical investigation.

This study found that 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor monotherapy for symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia showed some clinical benefit over placebo but was linked to a higher incidence of sexual side effects.

This study identified a set of tumour-suppressive microRNAs (miRNAs), termed 'normomiRs', that are highly expressed in normal tissues but low in tumors, with miR-206 and miR-381 showing significant in vitro cancer inhibition, highlighting their potential for miRNA-replacement therapies across multiple cancer types.

This meta-analysis found that treating male androgenetic alopecia with 5α-reductase inhibitors increases the risk of sexual dysfunction, with a statistically significant risk for finasteride but not for dutasteride.
