This study found that foot shock stress prolonged the telogen stage and delayed anagen induction in the hair cycle of non-depilated mice, potentially through stress-induced actions of substance P.

This study found that T-regulatory cells, specifically the FOXP3 CD39 subset, were significantly reduced in both circulation and hair follicles of alopecia areata patients compared to healthy subjects, suggesting potential therapeutic targets.

This study developed and validated a 50-item questionnaire, the PCOSQ-50, to effectively assess the quality of life in Iranian women with polycystic ovary syndrome, addressing aspects often missed by previous questionnaires.

This review addresses the effects of testosterone on brain development and examines both the established sex differences in brain functions and the debate surrounding structural dimorphism in neuropsychiatric conditions.

In this study, researchers found that Hashimoto's thyroiditis patients, despite being in euthyroid status, experienced more severe extrathyroidal symptoms compared to healthy controls, and elevated thyroid antibodies were linked to lower health-related quality of life and increased inflammation.

This study found that testosterone and dihydrotestosterone are crucial for synaptic transmission and spine density in male hippocampal neurons, suggesting sex-specific effects of neurosteroids on brain development.

This study found that topical cilostazol promotes hair growth, enhances hair follicle activities, and may serve as a potential treatment for alopecia.

This study suggests that synthetic steroid analogues or 5α-reductase modulation could be potential therapeutic strategies for nervous system disorders, but further research on their effects is necessary.

In this scoping review, researchers found that while some dietary approaches may help improve psoriasis symptoms—particularly in those with obesity or coeliac disease—the overall evidence is limited, and larger studies are necessary to identify effective diets for the broader psoriasis population.

The researchers found that HOXC13 regulates different keratin proteins in a mixed manner, with certain SNPs impeding this regulation, while also demonstrating negative-feedback by HOXC13 and positive regulation by LEF1 and melatonin on the HOXC13 promoter.

This study reports that epidermal neural crest stem cells from dogs (cEPI-NCSC) can generate neural crest derivatives and may offer a new cell-based therapy for canine spinal cord injury, with potential as a model for human treatments.

This study identified 77 genes with significant expression changes in expanded human skin, suggesting possible mechanisms for skin regeneration during tissue expansion, including previously unreported genes like HOXA5, HOXB2, and AP1.

This study found that human adult dermal fibroblasts can express markers typically associated with neural cells, suggesting potential pitfalls in relying on immunophenotyping alone for cell identity verification.

This paper explores the social challenges individuals with medical hair loss face when using wigs, highlighting the complex identity management involved and the social obligations to disclose wig use to close ones.

This study reviews recent advancements in understanding caspases, highlighting their roles beyond apoptosis in cancer, inflammation, and neurological disorders, and discusses the potential and challenges of targeting caspases for therapeutic purposes.

This study found dependencies between genetic variants and various phenotypes related to fetal and early childhood growth and neurological development in healthy infants, suggesting significant gene candidates for further investigation.

This study reported that pathways related to apoptosis, cell proliferation, and WNT signaling might be key drivers of hair loss in androgenetic alopecia, guiding potential targets for therapy development.

This study found that metabolism-related genes significantly impact the prognosis and metastasis in breast cancer, and the development of prediction models may guide personalized therapeutic strategies.

This study suggests that StemMACS MSC Expansion Media is more suitable than PowerStem MSC1 media for expanding therapeutic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells, with less expression of negative markers and better chromosomal stability.

This article discusses the role of external beam radiotherapy as a primary treatment method for cancer and reports no new clinical findings.

This review covers various skin-related adverse drug reactions and lists common drugs associated with these reactions but presents no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the relationship between ectodermal alterations and immunodeficiencies, particularly the roles of hyper-IgE syndrome, ectodermal dysplasia, and FOXN1 gene mutations, but it presents no new research findings.

This review discusses historical and recent advances in understanding the embryonic organizer's role in patterning during development, including molecular pathways and future research challenges, but reports no new experimental data.

In this review, researchers discussed recent insights into caspases, enzymes initially associated with cell death and inflammation, revealing their broader roles in cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation, and highlighting the importance of caspase knock-out mice for understanding their implications in diseases.

This review explores the phytochemistry and phytopharmacology of Urtica dioica but reports no new experimental findings, focusing on its traditional uses and range of bioactive constituents.

This study attempts to classify histomorphologic reactions to drugs to aid in diagnosing drug eruptions, which are common in hospitalized patients but lack specific diagnostic features.

This study found that thymus transplantation in athymic mice resulted in T-cell-driven hair follicle depigmentation and loss, without multiorgan autoimmune disease, highlighting mechanisms of tissue-specific tolerance.

In this study, researchers used a murine model of irritant contact dermatitis to reveal that hair follicle regions serve as key sites for neutrophil transepidermal migration, which requires MMP-9 expression stimulated by dermal monocytes.

This review examines recent findings on COVID-19 pneumonia treatment using mesenchymal stem cells and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight MSCs' potential due to their immunomodulatory and tissue-regenerative properties.

In this study, gene expression changes in rat whisker follicles after methamphetamine administration may serve as indicators of the drug's rewarding effects and potential addiction pathways.
