This review discusses the therapeutic options for transgender individuals, including hormonal and surgical treatments, and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the need for more research on long-term effects.

This study found that expression of certain mutant keratin genes in mice led to severe alopecia, suggesting a similar mechanism could cause hair loss in humans.

In this narrative review, the authors discuss the potential impact of hormone therapy on androgenetic alopecia among transgender individuals, especially transgender men using testosterone, and its adverse effects on emotional well-being and body image within a socially stigmatized population.

This source describes two cases of hair transplantation in transgender patients with Androgenetic Alopecia, showing good results using Follicular Unit Extraction and Follicular Unit Transplantation techniques, highlighting the need for more research specific to this population.

This study found that retinoic acid pre-treatment enhanced the efficiency of gene transfer into mouse skin for potential therapeutic applications.

This study found that using a novel dissolving microneedle with valproic acid effectively enhances hair follicle regrowth through improved delivery and activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway compared to topical application.

This review explores the advantages and limitations of using zebrafish models to study various skin diseases, but reports no new experimental results.

This study reported that reprogramming keratinocytes from plucked hair provides an easy, non-invasive, and efficient method for generating pluripotent iPSCs without the need for medical professionals or operating rooms.

This study found that the effects of the vitamin D receptor on hair follicle cycling in mice are independent of its ability to bind a hormone, with specific domain mutations influencing hair regrowth outcomes.

Mice with extra sheep genes had hair that fell out and regrew in cycles.

This study demonstrated that an AR-EGFP transgene can restore AR function and fertility in Sertoli cell-specific AR knockout mice, highlighting its potential use in understanding androgen receptor functions.

This study found that overexpression of ornithine decarboxylase and activated Ha-ras together led to a high rate of tumor development in a mouse model without additional carcinogens.

This study found that FLCN deficiency in mice muscles led to increased mitochondrial biogenesis and a metabolic shift towards oxidative phosphorylation, with a similar advantage observed in FLCN-null kidney cancer cells.

This review summarizes the proteins found in various hair follicle cells and discusses their roles in keratinocyte differentiation pathways, with no new experimental results reported.

This publication reviews the World Professional Association for Transgender Health's Standards of Care for supporting transgender and gender nonconforming people, with adjustments needed for diverse global contexts and no new clinical results.

This study reported that a Megsin-Cre transgene enables genetic manipulation primarily in skin, forestomach, and esophagus tissues, offering a new tool for studying development and diseases in these areas.

This study reports that transgenic mice carrying Clone B DNA developed spontaneous melanomas likely due to an interruption in genes regulating cell growth in melanin-producing cells, offering a model for melanoma research.

This perspective suggests that browning agents may not directly enhance UCP1 expression in white adipose tissue but instead induce browning through increased heat loss, prompting thermogenesis to compensate.

This article addresses the complexity of treating acne in female-to-male transgender adolescents undergoing testosterone therapy, highlighting concerns about co-administered treatments and their potential risks.

In this study, the researchers reported that altering β-catenin signaling in a transgenic mouse model led to changes in skin cell fate, notably converting hair follicle cells into epidermal cells and forming cysts instead of follicles.

This review discusses environmental epigenomics and its potential impact on gene regulation and phenotypic outcomes, using the Avy mouse model to illustrate nutritional and environmental effects on the fetal epigenome without presenting new findings.

This review explores the biology of wool follicles and suggests their potential use as research models in modern biology, but it reports no new findings.

This article reviews the genetic and protein interactions involved in hair growth, highlighting regulatory sequences, expression patterns, and potential genetic modifications, but presents no new experimental findings.

This study found that in transgenic mice overexpressing a mutant hairless gene, changes in its expression affected hair loss and regrowth, implicating the gene's role in hair follicle biology.

Hair disease research is a growing and evolving field in dermatology, with recent significant advances.

Injecting lentiviral vectors into early gestation mice effectively targets skin stem cells for potential gene therapy.

This research explored methods to obtain transgenic sheep embryos expressing synthetic spider silk genes in hair follicles using somatic cell nuclear transfer, with successful in-vitro development observed.

This study concluded that transgenic somatic cell nuclear transfer technology can produce cashmere goat blastocysts carrying the K2.9 gene using specific fibroblast cells and activation methods.
