In this study involving genetically modified rats, researchers observed that specific mutations in the vitamin D receptor affect calcium levels and bone formation, emphasizing the receptor's role in maintaining healthy bone density and its importance in regulating hair cycle and skin health.

This study identified a novel mechanism by which dsRNA-induced TLR3 activation and retinoic acid pathways contribute to new hair follicle formation after deep wounds in mice and suggested a similar potential in humans.

This study found that KRTAP2 proteins predominantly express in the hair shaft cortex of humans, interact with hair keratins, and play crucial roles in hair shaft keratinization.

This study found that improved protein extraction methods enhanced the resolution of hair proteins on gels, but differences in protein abundance between curly and straight Japanese women’s hair were minimal and unlikely to affect hair structure.

This study found that a gain-of-function mutation in the TRPV3 channel leads to altered hair development in DS-Nh mice by affecting the anagen and telogen phases, highlighting TRPV3's role in hair growth regulation.

This study presents the first report on cloning and characterizing the full-length cDNA of SRD5A1 in Indian catfish (Clarias magur), revealing expression differences across reproductive phases and increased expression post-Ovatide administration in ovaries and testis.

This review discusses the role of the TMPRSS2 gene in SARS-CoV-2 infection susceptibility and outcomes, highlighting its differential expression in ethnic groups and potential as a target for COVID-19 treatments, but reports no new results.

This study identified a mutation in the keratin 71 gene that causes curly hair in certain rats, advancing our understanding of hair formation.

This study used whole-genome resequencing to analyze genetic diversity and selection in 17 rabbit breeds, identifying genes linked to traits like coat color and body size, which could inform breeding and conservation efforts.

This study found that C57BL/6 mice and Sprague–Dawley rats show distinct distributions of eccrine sweat glands and hair follicles in their volar skin, suggesting these models should be selected according to research focus on skin appendages.

This review suggests that most mutations in the SRD5A2 gene show no clear genotype-phenotype correlation in 5-α-Reductase deficiency, although mutation location affects severity.

This study found that an SNP in the FGFR2 gene, rs4752566, was significantly associated with hair thickness in Asian populations, suggesting an effect on hair morphology through altered FGFR2 expression levels.

This study found that SPARC-overexpressing adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells significantly improved various aspects of skin wound healing in dogs, including re-epithelialization, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis, showing promise for enhancing treatment effectiveness under different physiological and pathological conditions.

This study identified multiple mutations in the 5 alpha-reductase-2 gene among male pseudohermaphrodites in the Dominican Republic, suggesting they do not share a common ancestry.

Both methods improve hair density and thickness; double-spin may be more effective.

This study reported that NRP2 expression in melanocytes and melanocyte stem cells is linked to migration inhibition and potentially melanoma progression, suggesting its role as a target for understanding melanoma and hair follicle biology.

This study found that the combination of TTNPB and CHIR99021 enhanced the derivation of highly advanced neural stem cells from human pluripotent stem cells, with improved chromatin accessibility and neuroectodermal gene expression, and these cells successfully engrafted in rat hippocampi to ameliorate depression-like symptoms.

This study identified a missense mutation in the rat Desmoglein 4 gene, causing abnormal hair shaft development in lanceolate hair mutant rats by disrupting a critical calcium binding site.

This review examines physical methods like electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry, highlighting their complementary capabilities in analyzing biomolecular structures and mycobacterial interactions with reactive oxygen species and antioxidants.

In this study, researchers discovered that ROR2, a Wnt receptor, plays a crucial role in regulating hair follicle stem cell self-renewal and maintenance, compensating for the absence of β-catenin.

This article explores the historical development and evolution of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), emphasizing advancements in safety and technology, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that finasteride effectively inhibits the enzymatic activity of human steroid 5 alpha reductase type II in newly established CHO cell lines.

In this study, researchers validated a computational workflow for repurposing non-antibacterial drugs as antibacterial agents and highlighted daprodustat, combined with an efflux pump inhibitor, as a promising strategy against bacterial pathogens.

This study found that the spermidine analog N1-methylspermidine prolonged hair follicle growth and decreased inflammation and oxidative stress in cultured hair follicles, suggesting potential relevance for treating inflammatory scalp diseases.

In this study, researchers found that DNMT1-mediated methylation of SRD5A2 in urethral epithelial cells from hypospadias-afflicted rats upregulates proteins associated with cell cycle and mitochondrial function, suggesting SRD5A2 as a potential therapeutic target for hypospadias due to its role in modulating cellular functions.

This study identified a nonfunctional Itpr3 gene in BTBR mice, attributed to a 12-bp deletion, which likely causes their simultaneous hair loss and taste perception deficits.
