This study found that in adult mouse skin, reduced levels of histone H3 K4/K9/K27me3 during hair follicle stem cell quiescence are linked to proper tissue homeostasis.

This study reviewed Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome and found it consistently associated with hypogonadism, decreased IGF1, and frontotemporal alopecia, with additional symptoms like intellectual disabilities and diabetes in some patients.

This study found that gonadal steroid hormones influence alopecia areata in C3H/HeJ mice, with estradiol promoting progression and dihydrotestosterone conferring resistance to disease onset.

This review discusses the use of antiandrogens for various conditions like prostate cancer and highlights their potential benefits in remission rates and symptom improvement, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study concluded that coat damage in captive rhesus macaques is unlikely caused by parasitic, bacterial, or mycotic infections but may be linked to environmental or behavioral factors affecting hair growth.

This study found statistically significant patterns in hair morphology and ultrastructure linked to biogeographic ancestry among European, African, and East Asian populations.

This study suggests that gender-affirming testosterone therapy in transgender men is generally safe and effective with adequate screening and monitoring, although high-quality long-term studies are lacking.

This study identified a large deletion in the desmoglein 4 gene as the genetic basis of the Iffa Credo "hairless" rat's skin phenotype, linking it to lanceolate hair mutations.

This study found that both finasteride and dutasteride significantly reduced L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia in a rat model of Parkinson's disease, with dutasteride showing greater effectiveness at lower doses.

This study demonstrated that AIRE-deficient rats exhibit key symptoms of APECED, making them a relevant model for exploring potential treatments.

This review describes current medical and surgical treatments for transgender men, highlighting the effectiveness and general tolerability of hormone treatment, and suggesting that surgical benefits often surpass associated risks, although it reports no new clinical findings.

PEVs effectively deliver minoxidil through skin.

In this study, a 54-year-old woman with short bowel syndrome developed biotin deficiency and associated symptoms while on home parenteral nutrition lacking biotin, which improved significantly after supplementation.

This study developed an in vitro system to analyze human skin progenitor cells' ability to form hair peg-like structures, providing insights for engineering hair follicle organoids.

In this study, researchers found that deleting Caspase-9 in hair follicle stem cells delayed apoptosis, leading to accelerated wound repair and new hair follicle regeneration by maintaining apoptotic cells as signaling centers.

This study found that morroniside enhanced hair follicle growth and transition through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in a mouse model, suggesting its potential as a treatment for hair loss.

This study created a humanized mouse model of hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets that lacks alopecia, indicating the mutant receptor's potential to explore the syndrome's characteristics beyond vitamin D binding.

Minoxidil promotes hair regrowth, but more research needed for effectiveness and response factors.

This study suggests that skin sections from 4-week-old C3H mice could serve as an in vitro model for human androgenic alopecia, as minoxidil partially reverses suppressed hair follicle elongation.

In this case report, researchers identified Arthroderma vanbreuseghemii as the cause of a familial fungal infection, which was successfully treated with itraconazole and topical terbinafine cream.

This study found that ILK deficiency disrupts hair follicle development by impairing cell polarity and laminin-511 assembly, but these defects can be partially reversed with exogenous laminin-511.

This review examines the diverse roles of SRD5α enzymes across species, focusing on their involvement in steroid synthesis, sexual development, and various physiological processes, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that a lacticin 3147 solid lipid nanoparticle gel demonstrated potent and sustained antimicrobial activity against S. aureus, including MRSA, in ex vivo S. aureus-infected pig skin.

In this study, overexpression of Wnt5a in mice was associated with the elongation of the telogen stage and inhibition of hair growth initiation, suggesting Wnt5a's role in maintaining hair follicle quiescence.

This study found that sex differences in somatostatin biosynthesis in rat hypothalamic neurons develop between postnatal day 1 and 5, influenced by the conversion of testosterone to estrogen.

This review discusses emerging targets for developing drugs to treat hair loss and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the potential for therapies that regenerate hair follicles.

This study observed that electro-acupuncture reduced global DNA methylation and DNMT3b expression in a PCOS-like rat model, suggesting a role of hypothalamic DNA methylation in PCOS development and treatment.

This review outlines best practices for providing culturally competent care to transgender patients and discusses considerations for assessing disease risk, but reports no new research findings.

This study found that elevated carbon dioxide levels may help mitigate water deficit stress in soybean roots by altering gene expression related to stress and nutrient transport.

In this animal study, atorvastatin co-administered with trastuzumab reversed trastuzumab-induced cognitive impairment (chemo-brain) and improved its anti-cancer efficacy without causing hair loss.
