This study found that inherited color dilution in Rex rabbit hair follicles is associated with DNA methylation changes, contributing to understanding the epigenetic regulation of rabbit pigmentation.

This study found that the vitamin D receptor in lampreys, which lack bones and hair, binds 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and may function to induce enzymes for detoxifying substances.

This study observed high prevalence of community-acquired infections, such as taenia and scabies, causing skin lesions in antenatal women, likely associated with factors like poor hygiene and socioeconomic challenges.

This article reviews small animal experiments reported from 1932 to 1952 in two dermatology journals and notes the contributions of Farris's book on laboratory animal care.

In this case report, a 7-month-old local dog named Oreo was diagnosed with demodicosis and helminthiasis and showed improvement in skin condition after 14 days of treatment with ivermectin, antihistamines, vitamin B complex, fish oil, and sulfur soap.

Former finasteride users showed higher rates of depression and suicidal thoughts compared to those who never used it.

This article discusses autoimmune diseases, detailing their types, symptoms, and potential management strategies, without providing new clinical findings.

This article discusses various autoimmune diseases, including their symptoms and management, and reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, the researchers observed that Biofield Energy Treated herbal extracts enhanced hair growth and melanogenesis in C57BL/6 mice, suggesting its potential as a hair growth enhancer.

This review examines the role of Hairless, a nuclear receptor corepressor, in regulating Wnt signaling during hair cycling and reports no new clinical results.

This study identified the Hairless (Hr) gene-encoded protein as a corepressor that plays a crucial role in maintaining skin and hair by regulating epithelial stem cell differentiation and gene expression via chromatin remodeling, which may impact both development and disease.

This article discusses the clinical presentation, histopathologic findings, and pathogenesis hypotheses of vitiligo without reporting new clinical results.

This study reports that C3H/HeJ mice and DEBR rats serve as effective models for screening potential treatments for human alopecia areata, despite certain challenges in predictability and cost.

This article discusses the etiology, clinical features, diagnosis, histopathology, and treatment of alopecia areata but reports no new clinical findings; it emphasizes the palliative nature of current treatments.

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 recent advances in understanding the pathogenesis of autoimmune alopecia areata and reports no new clinical results; it highlights potential for developing more effective treatments.

This study found that recombinant hepatitis B vaccine may increase the risk of alopecia areata onset in older predisposed mice but larger trials suggest this effect might lie within normal variation.

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 case report, a 9-year-old horse was diagnosed with alopecia areata contributing to Malassezia dermatitis, involving lymphocyte infiltration and symptoms consistent with yeast presence.

This review discusses melanocytes' role in pigmentation, their clinical significance in conditions like vitiligo and hair graying, and highlights current research on hair follicle regeneration without reporting new clinical results.

In this review, researchers examined the link between microorganisms and vitiligo, highlighting how microbes might impact the disease's development and suggesting avenues for better treatment strategies based on these interactions.

This article reviews the biology of epithelial stem cells and their role in tissue self-renewal, maintenance, and regeneration, and it highlights the clinical implications of understanding their signaling pathways, but it presents no new clinical findings.

This study reveals that overexpression of Wnt3 in transgenic mouse skin leads to a short-hair phenotype and cyclical balding due to structural defects in hair shafts, highlighting a role for WNT signaling in hair growth regulation.

This review discusses the significant role of Wnt signaling in skin development, homeostasis, and disease, highlighting recent advances in understanding its diverse functions, but reports no new experimental results.

This article discusses the hair follicle's regenerative cycles and the molecular mechanisms influencing them, emphasizing the need for therapeutic targeting of the "hair cycle clock" to manage hair growth disorders, without reporting new research findings.

This study found that squamous cell carcinomas from hair follicle stem cells are more prone to epithelial to mesenchymal transition and metastasis than those from interfollicular epidermis, due to distinct chromatin landscapes.

Scientists turned rat thymus cells into stem cells that can help repair skin and hair.

This study found that skin-derived precursor cells in mice can originate from both neural crest and somite lineages but show functional similarities regardless of their developmental origins.

This study demonstrated that a c-Kit-CreER-driven mouse model confirms melanocyte stem cells as a genuine source of melanoma, paralleling human melanoma in heterogeneity and gene signatures.

This review discusses how macro-environmental factors such as intradermal adipose tissue and sex hormones influence hair and feather stem cell niches, suggesting environmental targets for regenerative medicine, but reports no new clinical results.
