This study identified distinct gene expression patterns in wool follicle bulbs that may play important roles in wool follicle cycling and regeneration in sheep.

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.

This study investigated the interdigital glands in sheep, highlighting their apocrine sweat glands' ultrastructural characteristics and positive lectin reaction, but reported no new clinical results.

This study found that finasteride significantly reduced dihydrotestosterone levels but did not provide clear evidence of impaired libido or erectile function compared to placebo in men.

In this study of Thai women with ovarian cancer receiving chemotherapy, researchers found that symptom experiences such as numbness, tingling, and fatigue were frequent and significantly affected quality of life, while the effectiveness of symptom management did not significantly predict quality of life.

This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to map the cellular composition of sheep hair follicles, revealing differentiation pathways and potential molecular mechanisms for wool curvature, which may inform sheep breeding.

This study found that in semi-coarse wool sheep of the Ukrainian Carpathian Mountain breed, changes in microflora and grease composition are linked to increased felting in wool, due to wetter, more alkaline fleece conditions that promote bacterial and mold growth and alter fatty acid balances.

This study observed that feeding ewes a water-soluble complex of fatty acids increased primary hair follicle bulb diameter and mitotic activity, suggesting a positive correlation with wool growth.

This study identified candidate genes related to hair follicle development in Merino sheep, providing insights for improving sheep wool quality and potentially understanding human hair growth mechanisms.

This study found that male 5α-reductase 2 knockout mice showed deficits in social dominance behaviors and reduced dopamine receptor binding in a brain region related to social ranking.

In this study, finasteride was found not to be associated with changes in sleep spindle activity or morphology in men undergoing sleep studies.

In this study, dermatologists' TikTok content more frequently recommended standard treatments for hair and scalp disorders compared to influencers, who were more likely to suggest alternative options.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma improved the healing of skin wounds in sheep compared to honey by reducing early inflammation and enhancing collagen synthesis and organization.

In this study, researchers used single-cell RNA sequencing to map the hair follicle microenvironment in fine-wool sheep, identifying specific cell types and gene expressions that influence wool fiber diameter, with dermal papilla cells playing a significant role in hair follicle development.

In this study, researchers analyzed skin samples from Dorper sheep to identify 395 differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) linked to hair follicle growth phases, suggesting these lncRNAs may play a role in the regulation of hair shedding through pathways like estrogen and PI3K-Akt signaling.

This study observed that vimentin and transthyretin proteins were more highly expressed in black sheep skins compared to white, suggesting their involvement in coat color formation.

This study found that two microRNAs, oar-miR-23b and oar-miR-133, inhibit the development of hair follicles in superfine wool sheep by targeting genes involved in key signaling pathways, suggesting their potential use as molecular markers for breeding fine wool sheep.

This study found that stress and its related symptoms were highly prevalent among university students in Egypt during the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, with most reporting negative coping strategies.

This study found that adapalene-loaded solid lipid microparticles may enhance targeted drug delivery into sebum due to their similarity to sebum components, although both this formulation and a standard cream showed equivalent follicular penetration.

Pumpkin seeds may help expel parasites, but findings are retracted.

The authors concluded that utilizing clock gene expression from hair follicle cells may improve circadian-phase estimation in clinical settings, aiding the detection of circadian-related sleep problems despite social time constraints.

This study highlights factors contributing to increasing seborrheic alopecia among teenagers, including hormonal, lifestyle, and psychological influences, and suggests integrated treatment strategies including medication, lifestyle adjustments, and psychological interventions.

This study found that adults with trichotillomania or skin picking disorder experienced significantly poorer sleep quality, which was linked to various factors including age, stress, distress tolerance, impulsivity, and comorbid mental disorders.

This review discusses the diagnostic criteria and treatment options for adolescent polycystic ovary syndrome, highlighting ongoing debates and the need for further research, without presenting new clinical results.

This study found that spironolactone improved cognitive performance in patients with bipolar disorder experiencing manic episodes, but did not significantly affect manic symptoms, recommending further research with larger sample sizes and longer follow-ups.

This study found that neurosteroids influence oxytocin secretion in sheep, particularly during stress and pregnancy, suggesting their role in protecting and maintaining pregnancy under harmful conditions.

This review reports that nutritional and lifestyle factors, such as micronutrient deficiencies and stress, play a significant role in hair health and loss, but emphasizes that evidence for interventions remains limited and more research is needed to establish clear clinical guidelines.

This study found that finasteride use was significantly associated with the reporting of obstructive sleep apnea and insomnia compared to all other drugs in the FAERS database.
