This study observed that Merkel cells and their associated somatosensory axons in mouse skin exhibit significant plasticity, remodeling dynamically to maintain homeostasis. Axonal branching patterns were notably influenced by Merkel cells, suggesting epithelial-neural interactions play a key role in axonal plasticity and patterning.

In this study, highly dynamic remodeling was observed in mouse somatosensory axons and Merkel cells, indicating that epithelial-neural interactions help maintain homeostatic remodeling, with additional intrinsic neural mechanisms contributing to axonal plasticity.

This review explores the structure and development of the hair cuticle, highlighting difficulties in studying some aspects and proposing new experimental approaches, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers in Basrah, Iraq, observed that iodine deficiency in cross-breed goat kids led to goiter, slow growth, and various biochemical changes, including increased TSH and hypercholesterolemia, suggesting the need for improved maternal diet to reduce these issues and associated mortality risks.

This study proposes that the ability of humans to grow long scalp hair is linked to the evolutionary adjustment of molecular checkpoints that regulate the hair growth cycle, potentially influenced by its roles in communicating age, maturity, and social signals.

This study identified key proteins, FKBP10 and FBN2, that promote the growth cycle of secondary hair follicles in cashmere goats, with higher expression in the anagen phase, offering insights into mechanisms potentially enhancing cashmere yield and quality.

This study concluded that terminal Schwann cells are essential for the maintenance and regeneration of mechanosensory lanceolate complexes at hair follicles in adult mice.

This article discusses how DNA-based phenotyping is used by police to create visual profiles of suspects from crime scene samples, but reports no new research findings.

In this study, researchers found that tubular VCAM1 expression in transgenic mice and human kidney transplant biopsies precedes nephron loss and fibrosis, indicating its potential as an early biomarker for tubular fate and adverse kidney outcomes.

This study identified a significant trend among Black women towards less frequent use of complex hairstyles and salon visits over 30 years, while managing grey hair became a key element of personal and social identity.

The authors concluded that "burning scalp" syndrome lacks general treatment recommendations, but therapeutic cosmetics showing antipruritic and anti-inflammatory effects may offer promise for long-term management and prevention.

This review discusses the therapeutic effects of stem cell therapy in various diseases and emphasizes the need for controlled differentiation and further large-scale trials, but reports no new findings.
