This study found that Wnt signalling activates hair follicle fate in hair follicle stem cells by relieving TCF3/4–TLE-mediated repression, with β-catenin being crucial for this process.

New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.

This review summarizes proposed pathophysiological mechanisms of postpartum depression, highlighting neuroendocrine and neurobiological changes, but reports no new findings and calls for integrated understanding of the disorder.

This study found that matriptase, a membrane serine protease, is crucial for maintaining multiple types of epithelial tissues in mice, with its absence leading to severe organ dysfunction and increased permeability.

This study found that macrophages play a crucial role in nerve regeneration by regulating Schwann cell dynamics and remyelination, with Gas6 identified as a key factor in this process.

This study found that NF-κB signaling may connect injury response to regenerative processes in zebrafish hearts, potentially aiding the development of cardiac regenerative therapies in humans.

This article reviews common hair-care practices among African American patients and discusses how these practices relate to hair and scalp disorders, without presenting new clinical research.

This study identifies six novel keratin genes from the chromosome 17q21.2 region, suggesting their association with hair follicles, while all 27 keratin genes in the domain have been characterized transcriptionally.

This review offers transgender hormone treatment guidelines to assist healthcare providers in improving transgender patients' access to and outcomes of medical care, but it reports no new clinical results.

This protocol describes using two-photon laser-scanning microscopy to study hair regeneration in live mice, offering detailed imaging capabilities for observing hair follicle stem cell behavior and manipulating cellular populations.

Research on epidermal stem cells has advanced significantly, showing promise for improved clinical therapies.

This study found that dutasteride effectively improved urinary symptoms, reduced acute urinary retention risk, and decreased prostate volume in men with moderate to severe BPH over two years.

This study found that local refinement of hair follicles into higher order patterns can occur without the core planar cell polarity system, but global alignment with body axes requires its function throughout development and regeneration.

This article reviews the use of the Nd:YAG laser for hair removal and reports no new research findings.

In this study, researchers identified a novel congenital skin disorder in Chesapeake Bay retrievers, linked to a plakophilin-1 deficiency due to a genetic mutation, marking the first known occurrence in an animal species.

This study reports that compound heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in the HEPHL1 gene in a child were associated with abnormal hair and cognitive issues, linking altered ferroxidase activity to hair disorders.

This review discusses the use of laser and flashlamp technology for unwanted hair removal and reports no new clinical results, highlighting challenges with light-colored hair and treatment safety for darker skin tones.

This article reviews the effects of 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors for treating conditions like male pattern baldness and benign prostatic hyperplasia, noting significant DHT reduction but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that deleting the Hes1 gene disrupts hair regeneration by delaying anagen initiation and shortening the anagen phase, suggesting it's crucial for maintaining hair cycle homeostasis.

This study suggests that damaged anagen hair follicles have the capability to repair themselves and resume growth by mobilizing extra-bulge epithelial cells, particularly after injuries like chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

This study found that in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, PCOS phenotype and oxidative stress markers were significantly related to free androgen index levels, but insulin resistance was not.

This study found that Pannexin 3 plays a crucial role in skin development by regulating the transcription factor Epiprofin, affecting keratinocyte differentiation and hair follicle regeneration in mice.

This study found that quiescent bulge stem cells, when prevented from contributing to hair follicle and epidermal regeneration, did not affect hair follicle growth or wound healing in the short term.

The Androgen Receptor could be a target for treating diseases like cancer, but more research is needed to confirm the effectiveness of potential treatments.
