This study analyzes the fine structure and protein distribution in monotreme hairs, finding similarities with other mammals and detailing unique immunocytochemical features in their inner root sheaths.

This review discusses studies on hair growth and protein synthesis in hair follicles, highlighting the differing responses of mohair and cashmere goat follicles to signaling molecules, biotin, and amino acids, but contains no new results.

This article outlines the rationale, design, major findings, and updated objectives of the ongoing Rotterdam Study, without presenting new research data.

This review discusses how acute exposures to environmental and internal stressors can quickly alter skin functions, leading to various dermatological symptoms, and calls for more research on these short-term effects.

This review discusses the health risks of mercury from dental amalgam, including higher levels of mercury in dentists and pregnant women, and suggests using composite resins instead.

This study found that melatonin implants advanced the timing of the spring moult and increased hair follicle activity in adult cashmere goats, but had no significant effects on juvenile goats.

This study identified two single-nucleotide polymorphisms and three haplotypes in the KRTAP7-1 gene across yak, taurine, and zebu cattle, with the BOVIN-KRTAP7-1*A haplotype most prevalent.

This study identified miRNAs within the Dlk1-Gtl2 region on chromosome 18 as potential epigenetic regulators of lamb fur traits, with possible implications for the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway.

This study concluded that IGF-I receptors are present on hair follicles and sebaceous glands of cashmere and Angora goats, but melatonin receptors are absent.

This review examines melatonin's potential effects on human skin and hair follicle pigmentation, highlighting the need to confirm findings from cell cultures in physiological tissue contexts.

This review covers various treatments for managing PCOS symptoms and infertility, noting that aromatase inhibitors may be as or more effective than clomiphene citrate for ovulation induction but reports no new clinical results.

Wool follicles can grow in a lab with the right nutrients and conditions.

This study found that epidermal growth factor significantly reduced fibre growth in cultured Tukidale and Romney hair follicles, while cortisol had no effect on follicle growth.

This study found that among women with PCOS, a bedtime after midnight was independently linked to higher androgen levels and decreased lean muscle mass.

In a study on mice, researchers found that exposure to artificial light environments causing circadian misalignment impaired hair growth by reducing the hair growth rate during the anagen phase, suggesting these light conditions as a potential risk factor for hair loss.

This review discusses the various determinants of hair quality in healthy individuals and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the need for independent trials with standardized outcomes.

This study found that treating moderate-to-severe prurigo nodularis with dupilumab significantly improved itch severity, skin condition, and quality of life over 104 weeks, with a favorable safety profile, even in elderly and comorbid patients.

This study found cell-specific variations in POMC mRNA and peptide expression in murine skin, suggesting that PC1 and PC2 convertases contribute to differential POMC processing.

This study found that ornithine decarboxylase expression is linked to cell proliferation and differentiation in hair follicle development and growth.

This study observed that both prenatal androgen exposure and postnatal early-life environment influence the development of PCOS-like phenotypes and changes in the gut microbiota in prenatally androgenized offspring.

In this study, researchers found that miR-143-3p may play a novel role in cashmere growth by directly repressing the expression of Itga6 in secondary hair follicles of goats.

This study suggests that the transcription factors SP1 and KROX20 regulate CUX1 gene's effect on the proliferation of ovine dermal papilla cells in vitro.

This review discusses the plasticity of stem cell populations and their ability to switch between functions for tissue homeostasis and regeneration, emphasizing environmental and hormonal influences, and reports no new results.

This review summarizes recent research on the molecular properties and functions of L-PGDS and PGD2, but reports no new findings, highlighting their pathophysiological roles and guiding future studies.

This review summarizes the influences of lifestyle factors such as smoking, alcohol, and diet on the pathogenesis of alopecia areata but reports no new clinical results.

This review highlights that vitexin, a natural flavonoid derived from plants like mung bean, modulates critical cellular processes involved in cancer progression, suggesting its potential as a multi-target anticancer treatment in preclinical studies.

This study reviews current research to better understand how various environmental and lifestyle factors, collectively known as the exposome, impact hair health and aging, acknowledging that the detailed mechanisms remain partially understood.

This narrative review highlights that declining testosterone levels are a complex public health issue potentially influenced by modifiable lifestyle factors and environmental stressors, suggesting integrated strategies may be needed to address the trend's impacts on health.

This chapter examines how hormonal changes during the postpartum period, alongside various external factors, impact mother and infant well-being, addressing challenges like postpartum depression, fatigue, and healthcare access, while stressing the need for improved medical training focused on maternal and fetal health.

This review highlights Shirodhara's potential cosmetic benefits, noting improvements in scalp health, hair growth, and skin appearance, attributed to stress reduction, hormonal balance, enhanced circulation, and nutrient-rich herbal oils.
