This study found that in mice, transplanting hair follicle stem cells promoted recovery from spinal cord injury, as these cells largely differentiated into Schwann cells aiding nerve repair.

This study found that glycinergic synapses in the rat spinal cord are predominantly associated with gephyrin, though gephyrin may also be present at non-glycinergic synapses.

This study found that presynaptic inhibition of Aαβ cutaneous primary afferents in cats is mostly mediated by GABAergic interneurons that also contain glycine.

In this study, a pH-responsive microneedle patch was developed, showing potential in rat models for treating spinal cord injuries by reducing inflammation, promoting nerve regeneration, and supporting neurogenesis, which contributed to improved motor and neurological recovery.

In this study, transplanted whisker follicles from ND-GFP mice aided spinal cord repair in injured mice, and surprisingly, also grew long hair shafts at the site of transplantation.

This study found no evidence supporting the hypothesis that Aβ afferents sprout into the superficial laminas of the spinal cord after nerve injury in rats.

In this pilot randomized clinical trial, TRT combined with finasteride increased lean mass, muscle size, and bone mineral density without prostate enlargement in men with spinal cord injury, suggesting potential benefits for body composition and musculoskeletal health.

This study found that inhibiting neurosteroidogenesis affected GABA A receptor-mediated synaptic inhibition in immature rats but not in adults, suggesting age-dependent modulation of synaptic strength in the spinal dorsal horn.

This study suggests that hair-follicle afferent axons can be presynaptically inhibited by boutons containing the enzyme glutamic acid decarboxylase, which is linked to the synthesis of γ-aminobutyric acid.

In this study, the authors review how epigenetic regulation influences the role of iPSC-derived neural stem/progenitor cells in spinal cord injury therapy, highlighting challenges in the cells' generation, differentiation, and transplantation, and the effect of therapeutic tools on these processes.

Combination therapy improves urinary flow and reduces residual urine, but needs better stent design.

This study reviews the significant prevalence of organic etiologies, especially vascular causes, in erectile dysfunction among men under 40 and emphasizes thorough evaluation and consideration of treatment options like exercise and PDE-5 inhibitors.

This study found that distinct low-threshold mechanoreceptors innervate different hair follicle types in mice, suggesting that these follicles serve as unique mechanosensory structures in touch perception.

Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause androgen insensitivity, leading to female traits in genetically male individuals.

This review examines the role of nerves in regeneration across various species and discusses their importance as components in the progenitor cell niche, reporting no new clinical results.

This study using Mendelian randomization in UK Biobank data suggests that lifelong increased free testosterone may have mixed effects, including increased bone density and prostate cancer risk, warranting well-powered trials to address uncertainties.

This report describes a case of adrenomyeloneuropathy where neurogenic bladder dysfunction developed, attributed to demyelinating lesions in the patient's peripheral nerves, spinal cord, and cerebral white matter.

This review discusses hypopituitarism's bidirectional relationship with COVID-19 due to metabolic comorbidities and pituitary risks, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the PP2A-B55α regulatory subunit is crucial for ectodermal development in mice, with knockout embryos displaying severe neural and epidermal defects and failing to survive to birth.

This study found that macrophages treated with keratin in vitro were more similar to anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages and reduced astrocyte reactivity, potentially limiting secondary inflammatory damage after spinal cord injury.

Caffeine can damage hearing cells and affect hearing recovery after ear trauma.

This study found that hair-follicle-associated pluripotent stem cells can promote nerve repair and growth in a 3D culture model and potentially differentiate into cardiac muscle cells, offering advantages over other stem cell types for regenerative medicine.

This study reports that a lower 2D:4D finger length ratio is significantly associated with higher disease activity and reduced spinal mobility in females with ankylosing spondylitis, but not in males.

This review discusses the biological characteristics and potential of epidermal stem cells in orthopedic regenerative medicine but reports no new experimental findings.

This Mendelian randomization study reports that lifelong increased free testosterone in males was associated with improved bone mineral density and body composition but increased risks of prostate cancer, hypertension, and several other conditions.
