This review discusses the crosstalk between auxin and ethylene in seedling growth and development, emphasizing how ethylene modulates auxin's effects across different tissues.

Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.

This study found that the BMP antagonist noggin induces hair growth in postnatal skin by neutralizing BMP4's inhibitory activity, potentially mediated by changes in Shh expression.

This review discusses advances in understanding hair and hair follicle structure, gene expression, and molecular signals in hair formation, without reporting new clinical findings.

This review discusses the effects of visible light on human skin, highlighting its role in pigmentation, thermal damage, and the treatment of several skin conditions, while noting limited sunscreen protection against it; no new clinical results are reported.

This review summarizes the roles of bone morphogenetic proteins in the development and regulation of normal and diseased skin, but it does not provide new clinical results.

In this study, cross-sex hormone therapy affected hair growth patterns differently, with estrogen reducing hair growth in male-to-female transsexuals and testosterone increasing it in female-to-male transsexuals; however, male typical hair diameters were not fully reached in the latter group after 12 months.

This forum article in BMC Biology discusses evolving views on the concept of the stem cell niche, highlighting varied mechanisms and the need for better understanding of the niche's roles and functions.

Humans lost body hair relatively recently in evolution.

This review explores the mechanisms of adult stem cell self-renewal, using skin as a model, and reports no new results but raises important unanswered questions in the field.

This study found that Smad7 perturbs hair follicle development while promoting sebaceous gland formation by antagonizing Wnt/β-catenin signaling in transgenic mice.

This study found that mice lacking the 1αOHase enzyme, which is responsible for producing a key vitamin D metabolite, showed impaired epidermal differentiation and delayed recovery of skin barrier function after disruption.

This article reviews androgenetic alopecia in women, highlighting diagnosis criteria and noting that topical minoxidil is currently the only proven treatment for hair growth; it reports no clinical trial findings.

This study found that disrupting Adam10 in the epidermis led to severe skin and multi-organ abnormalities, implicating Adam10 as crucial for proper Notch signaling and skin maintenance.

This study found that subcutaneous administration of conditioned medium from adipose-derived stem cells promoted hair growth in mice, and hypoxia enhanced this effect by altering growth factor secretion.

Different types of stem cells and their environments are key to skin repair and maintenance.

This review discusses recent findings on the plasticity and regulation of epithelial stem cells and reports no new experimental results.

This study found that topical niacinamide significantly improved the appearance of wrinkles, skin yellowing, and elasticity in aging facial skin over 12 weeks.

This article discusses the high toxicity and potential use of thallium as a poison, highlighted by two cases of intentional thallium poisoning.

This review discusses the role of signaling networks in sebaceous gland development and disorders, highlighting recent insights from mouse models and cell line studies, but reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the use of recombinant cytokines as therapeutic agents in clinical settings and describes the range of cutaneous complications associated with their use, including both minor and severe skin reactions.

This review outlines the oral toxic effects of chemotherapy and stresses the need for evaluating dental health prior to treatment to mitigate these complications, but it reports no new clinical results.

This paper discusses polycystic ovary syndrome with a focus on androgen excess as the primary symptom and notes that insulin resistance may contribute to it in many patients, but provides no new research findings.

In this study, thymosin beta4 was found to stimulate hair growth in normal rats and mice by affecting key processes in the hair follicle cycle, such as stem cell migration and extracellular matrix remodeling.

This study found that traction alopecia risk was higher in adults than children and increased further when traction was combined with chemically relaxed hair.

This study found that prolactin and its receptor are expressed in the murine hair follicle epithelium, influencing hair cycle phases by down-regulating keratinocyte proliferation during anagen and inducing premature catagen.

This review discusses the differences in wound healing between fetal and adult skin, highlighting the potential to uncover genes for scarless repair that could improve adult wound healing.

In this study, researchers found that TCDD exposure accelerated differentiation and altered gene expression in human epidermal cells, indicating the epidermal barrier as a target of TCDD-activated AHR.

This review discusses the role of circadian rhythms in stem cell differentiation and tissue regeneration, emphasizing their impact on organ physiology and aging, but reports no new experimental results.

This review explores embryonic epidermal development and discusses key molecular regulators and roles of the sub-epidermal mesenchyme, but reports no new experimental results.
