This review describes bioengineering strategies to mimic the natural cell microenvironment in vitro, emphasizing the novel approach of using cell-synthesized extracellular matrix as a scaffold for engineering functional 3D tissues, while highlighting the limitations of exogenous scaffolds in tissue engineering.

This study suggests that the curly hair phenotype in Mangalitza pigs may involve complex gene interactions related to calcium signaling and lipid metabolism, rather than changes in TRPM2 or CYP4F3 expression.

BPH treatment improved with personalized medicine, new drugs, and less invasive surgeries.

This study identified a novel locus for hereditary hypotrichosis simplex on chromosome 13q12.12~12.3 in a four-generation Chinese family.

This report describes a case of trichodysplasia spinulosa in a renal transplant patient, characterized by unique dermatoscopic features and highlighting the need for timely diagnosis.

In this study of a TRPS type I patient, many genes related to keratin and hair development were down-regulated in balding scalp areas, providing new insights into TRPS and hair morphogenesis.

This study suggests that heparan sulfate is crucial for regulating hair follicle formation, cycling, and gland morphogenesis, with its ablation leading to continuous hair growth and increased gland activity in mice.

In this study, researchers found that correcting the HGPS mutation with Adenine base editing partially rescued accelerated skin cell differentiation and reduced cell death in patient-derived stem cells.

This study found that testosterone enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in male and female human islets through its conversion to DHT and E2, a process disrupted by 5α-reductase and aromatase inhibitors.

This study found that combining a thulium laser with intra-perifollicular PDRN injections significantly improved hair thickness but not hair counts compared to mesotherapy and PDRN in patients with pattern hair loss.

This project by the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery reviews best practices in hair restoration surgery and reports no new research findings.

In this study, researchers identified specific gene polymorphisms in Subo Merino sheep that significantly affect wool traits, suggesting these genetic markers could aid in breeding high-quality fine-wool sheep.

This article reviews hair growth patterns in humans and laboratory animals, noting the random distribution of active and inactive hair follicles and differences in regional coordination among animal species, and reports no new results.

This study found that chronic ultraviolet-B exposure increased skin vascularization and wrinkle formation in mice, while overexpressing the angiogenesis inhibitor thrombospondin-1 reduced these effects, suggesting angiogenesis inhibition as a potential approach to prevent photo-damage.

This study demonstrates that the trichohyalin gene is located at chromosomal region 1q21, where several other genes related to epidermal differentiation also map.

This report on a 37-year-old patient found that trichorhinophalangeal syndrome type I is associated with hair abnormalities, including fine and brittle hair with altered biomechanical properties, but no treatment exists for the hair defects.

This study found that injecting thymus gland extracts into albino rats significantly accelerated growth and morphological differentiation across generations, including earlier sexual maturation and development of features like hair and teeth.

This study's new single-cell atlas of hidradenitis suppurativa tunnels identifies distinct fibro-inflammatory microenvironments, suggesting that TNF blockade may not address the primary pathway in many lesions.

In this clinical case report, a man with Birt Hogg Dube syndrome presented with parathyroid cancer, the first such case according to the authors, highlighting a potential link between Folliculin gene mutations and parathyroid cancer development.

This study created a comprehensive single-cell atlas of hidradenitis suppurativa tunnels, identifying distinct microenvironmental endotypes linked to specific signaling pathways, suggesting that TNF blockade may not effectively address predominant pathways in many lesions and highlighting the potential for individualized treatment strategies.

This study introduced a reproducible human model using 3D-SeboSkin technology to study hidradenitis suppurativa, allowing better maintenance of skin integrity and replication of biomarker expression patterns compared to traditional skin cultures, suggesting its value for further research.

This study found that in male mouse pancreatic islet β cells, testosterone enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion by being locally converted into dihydrotestosterone and estradiol.

This study demonstrated immunological cross-reactivity between mycobacterial heat-shock protein 65 and human epidermal cytokeratin 1/2, suggesting that this cross-reactive epitope might play a role in skin diseases.

This study identified a human sequence likely coding for a new ultra-high sulphur protein, which may aid in understanding hair differentiation and the molecular basis of human trichothiodystrophy.

This study reported that despite treatment, patients with severe thallium poisoning experienced lasting visual impairment and partial recovery of polyneuropathy over two years, with hair loss fully reversing.

This study found that patients with hidradenitis suppurativa had lower trabecular bone score and total hip bone mineral density compared to controls, with a high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency.

This article discusses categorization changes for Hair Transplant Surgeon members at the British Association of Hair Restoration Surgery and reports no clinical outcomes.

This study reported that prompt hair removal effectively treated hair tourniquet syndrome in infants, with all patients healing without complications.

This study concluded that overexpressing TERT and BMI1 in cultured human dermal papilla cells extended their lifespan and enhanced their ability to induce hair growth in mice.
