This review examines integrins as pharmacological targets, discussing current integrin-based therapies and emphasizing the need to understand integrin mechanisms for successful drug development, without reporting new clinical results.

This review discusses genetic factors contributing to susceptibility and outcomes in COVID-19, including ACE, ACE2, TMPRSS2 variants, HLA genotype, and ABO blood group, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that fibromodulin significantly reduces scar formation and boosts scar strength in rodent and porcine models, suggesting potential for FMOD-based therapies in cutaneous wound repair.

In this study, structural and functional brain abnormalities specific to visuospatial and somatosensory processing networks were observed in patients with anorexia nervosa, highlighting a critical role for the precuneus.

This study presents a detailed overview of lymphatic vessel development and highlights the role of abnormal lymphangiogenesis in various diseases, suggesting that targeting lymphangiogenic factors may improve treatment strategies.

In this review, researchers explored the multifaceted role of NF-κB signaling in various biological processes and diseases, including its interactions with other pathways, and discussed possible therapeutic approaches targeting this pathway for treating conditions like cancer, autoimmune disorders, and COVID-19.

This study found that rete ridge morphogenesis in mammalian skin is directed by a BMP-dependent developmental program, which is evolutionarily distinct from other known pathways controlling the development of hair follicles, sweat glands, and fingerprint ridges.

In a hamster model of COVID-19, this study observed that both low and high doses of testosterone worsened illness in males, while finasteride prevented severe outcomes.

In this study published in Nature, researchers explored how hair follicle stem cells manage apoptotic cell clearance while maintaining their regenerative roles, identifying significant molecules involved in sensing and engulfing dying cells to sustain tissue health.

This study found that serum levels of NF-L and GFAP decreased but tau protein levels did not change in anorexia nervosa patients after short-term partial weight restoration.

This research paper reviews the anti-androgenic properties of the drug flutamide and its metabolite Sch 16423 but presents no new experimental results.

This review explores the role of fatty acids and bioactive lipid mediators in skin health and suggests targeting this metabolic network to control inflammation and improve skin conditions, but it reports no new findings.

This mini-review highlights emerging themes on how tissue stiffness, a fundamental material property, influences morphogenetic processes in living organisms, an area gaining increased attention alongside the role of mechanical forces in shaping cell behavior.

This review discusses the effects of steroids on the skin and does not report any new research findings.

This narrative review discusses the discovery of plasticity in epidermal stem cells using single-cell transcriptomics, but reports no new results; it highlights the potential implications for regenerative medicine.

This article reviews the role of glycogen synthase kinase-3 in various diseases and recent developments in GSK-3 inhibitors, without reporting any new clinical findings.

This study found that minoxidil increases cytosolic-free Ca2+ levels and induces cytotoxicity in PC3 human prostate cancer cells, with the cytotoxicity occurring in a Ca2+-independent manner.

This review discusses the higher prevalence of retinal changes in alopecia areata patients and suggests a potential connection to Minoxidil, but emphasizes the lack of a proposed mechanism or extensive literature on this association.

In this study, computational analysis identified EGCG as the most effective GSK3β inhibitor among tested compounds, suggesting its potential for promoting hair regrowth by interacting with signaling pathways related to hair follicle cycling, although further experimental testing is needed.

This study observed that repeated perm treatments decrease disulfide bonds in hair due to their conversion largely into cysteic acid, affecting the waving efficiency depending on the reduction agent used.

This study proposed a network model for the cross-linked structure of keratin-associated proteins in hair and wool fibers, suggesting notable differences between the two, potentially affecting hair fiber elasticity.

This study found that permanent wave treatment accelerates hair degradation after protease exposure, showing significant morphological differences compared to untreated hair and linked to damage from Alpha-helical region denaturation.

This study found that using a bicomponent reduction system with TGA and DTDG for hair straightening limited hair damage by forming only thiol groups, while a TGA-only system formed more damaging mixed disulfide groups.

In this study, liposome-encapsulated thioglycolic acid improved hair perming by enhancing the penetration of perm solutions, resulting in a stronger S-shaped wave and higher cysteine content compared to the control.

This study found that microfibrils play a crucial role in shaping permanent waves by thioglycolic acid, and treating damaged hair with hydrolyzed keratin improved both waving efficiency and hair damage.

This study found that Mf-rich-fiber in human hair underwent significantly greater degradation by proteases than Ma-rich-fiber, especially when treated with Proteinase K.

This case presentation describes an adult with tinea capitis and related symptoms who was found to have a Trichophyton gypseum infection.

This case report describes a 26-year-old woman with chronic lupus erythematosus who did not improve after receiving eighty doses of gold and sodium thiosulphate.

This study found that moisture sorption properties of wool and hair fibers from various animals were similar, despite different structural features, with sorbed water being more ordered than liquid water.

This study found that trilostane was effective in resolving symptoms such as polyuria and polydipsia in many dogs with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, with significant hormone level reductions observed.
