In this study, researchers found that CD4 T cells from the skin draining lymph nodes of mice with alopecia areata can transfer the disease to recipient mice, highlighting the key role of these cells and their interaction with CD8 T cells in the disease's development.

This review details the expression and diverse functions of melatonin receptors in non-neural tissues and reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing their potential as therapeutic targets across various physiological and pathological processes.

This study found that castration-resistant prostate cancers resistant to CYP17A1 inhibitors may still depend on steroids and could respond to therapies targeting de novo intratumoral steroid synthesis.

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

This review discusses the cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system's potential role in skin function and resilience against environmental and internal stresses, but does not report new experimental findings.

This review discusses the roles of androgens and estrogens in skin functions and disorders, and highlights the use of estrogen-progestin treatments and anti-androgens in managing hirsutism and acne, without reporting new results.

Ets2 gene is crucial for placental development in mice.

In this study, homozygous VDR null mutant mice exhibited nonfunctional vitamin D receptors, leading to growth abnormalities and revealing the limited physiological importance of vitamin D pathways outside the classical receptor.

This study identifies mutations in the SRD5A3 gene as a cause of a new type of congenital disorder of glycosylation, impacting mental, ophthalmologic, and cerebellar functions.

This study provides evidence that human skin contains genes and enzymes necessary for producing serotonin and melatonin.

This article discusses the role of estrogens in skin aging and reports no new findings; it highlights the potential of selective ER modulators to improve skin health without systemic side effects.

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.

This study found that Cutl1 mutant mice experienced retarded lung differentiation and abnormal hair follicle morphogenesis, indicating the vital role of CDP in lung development and hair follicle cell-lineage specification.

This review discusses recent advancements in understanding and managing congenital adrenal hyperplasia, including improvements in screening, diagnostics, and potential genetic and cell-based treatments, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the conserved molecular mechanisms controlling hair follicle development and cycling and suggests they may also apply to other ectodermal derivatives, like teeth and feathers, but it reports no new results.

This study found that hair follicle patterning in development may arise from a combination of epidermal prepattern signals and mesenchymal self-organisation, with fibroblast growth factor and bone morphogenetic protein activities playing key roles.

This review discusses the molecular mechanisms by which oncogenic viruses contribute to cancer development through manipulation of host cellular functions and highlights the need for further research into virus-associated cancers, reporting no new results.

This study found that K17 is crucial for the structural integrity and survival of hair-producing cells, with K17 null mice developing alopecia due to hair fragility and follicular alterations.

The AUTS2 gene is linked to neurological disorders and may affect human brain development and cognition.

This review discusses the possible impacts of prolactin on skin conditions like psoriasis, alopecia, and stress-related dermatoses, emphasizing the need for further research to explore its therapeutic potential.

This review describes the roles of 5α-reductase isozymes in prostate development and pathology and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the genetic factors involved in hair follicle morphogenesis and cycling and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the role of genes in hereditary hair diseases.

This study found that early-onset androgenetic alopecia in individuals of European ancestry is significantly associated with increased odds of Parkinson's disease and is influenced by specific genetic loci, including some linked to reduced fertility.

This study found that mouse skin can produce and metabolize serotonin and N-acetylserotonin, with activity influenced by location, physiological skin status, cell type, and mouse strain.

This study found that stimulating the olfactory receptor OR2AT4 in human hair follicles with a synthetic sandalwood odorant promotes hair growth ex vivo by decreasing apoptosis and increasing IGF-1 production.

This study found that downregulation of EGF and KGF signaling is necessary for hair follicle initiation in placodes, revealing a new role for KGF in hair follicle formation in mice.

New treatments for male hypogonadism are effective and should be personalized.

In this study, specific genetic polymorphisms in the KRT71 gene were associated with hairless and curly phenotypes in Sphynx and Devon Rex cats.

This review discusses the potential role of steroid 5α-reductase inhibitors in treating neuropsychiatric disorders related to dopaminergic hyperreactivity but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that overexpressing the BMP inhibitor Noggin in transgenic mice led to a significant loss of nontylotrich hair follicles, suggesting a critical role for BMP signaling in hair follicle morphogenesis and cycling.
