This study developed a composite hydrogel that delivered multiple proteins, enhancing skin wound healing by accelerating closure and promoting hair follicle regeneration.

This study reported that ELL is crucial for maintaining the proliferative capacity of the basal layer in human epidermal keratinocytes by stabilizing RNA polymerase II at the transcription start site.

This review examines host factors like ACE2 and TMPRSS2 in SARS-CoV-2 infection, exploring how genetic variants and advanced cellular analyses might clarify COVID-19's severity and heterogeneity; it reports no new results.

This article discusses various hair diseases and emphasizes their significant impact despite affecting a small area, but does not report new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers found that two dominant haplotypes in the EDA2R/AR intergenic region have likely been shaped by demographic changes and selection during human evolution, particularly notable in African and non-African populations.

This study observed that both excessive and deficient selenium levels in a C57BL/6 mouse model were associated with hair loss and changes in hair follicles, likely due to alterations in the hair follicle cycle and increased apoptosis.

This systematic review and meta-analysis found 30 genetic loci associated with skin ageing phenotypes, noting shared biological pathways in aspects like pigmentation and wrinkling; researchers suggest further studies targeting the same SNP across populations could clarify these associations.

This study reports the first cases of recessive KRT17-related pachyonychia congenita involving all ectodermal derivatives in seven members of two consanguineous Pakistani families.

This study found that stem cells can temporarily act as non-professional phagocytes during hair cycle regeneration by clearing apoptotic cells through a process requiring local lipids and retinoids for activation, providing insights into their dual role in maintaining tissue integrity.

This study found that sebaceous glands in the skin are primarily renewed by their own stem cells during normal conditions, but after injury, they regenerate through stem cells from hair follicles, highlighting stem cell plasticity and regeneration capabilities.

This review discusses cultural hair care practices for African American scalp health and recommends combining clinical evaluation with cultural knowledge, but reports no new research findings.

This study identified a novel missense mutation in the FGF5 gene associated with the longhair phenotype in about 3% of Maine Coon cats, suggesting it may be a breed-specific variant.

In this study, researchers used an evolutionary-rate-based method to identify genetic elements associated with reduced hair in mammals, finding a dichotomy between accelerated coding sequences and noncoding regulatory elements influencing hair growth.

This article discusses the MendelVar webserver, which integrates Mendelian disease data with GWAS findings to prioritize candidate genes for complex traits and reports no new experimental results.

This study identified three main ethical concerns regarding stem cell use from an Islamic perspective in Malaysia, focusing on embryonic stem cells, aesthetic applications, and therapeutic medicine.

This genome-wide association study identified several genetic markers, including specific SNPs and HLA genotypes, associated with alopecia areata susceptibility in the Taiwanese population, highlighting key pathways involved in immune response and offering insights into the genetic origins of this autoimmune condition.

This study found that deleting the Mof gene in mouse skin leads to severe defects in skin cell self-renewal, differentiation, and hair follicle growth, indicating that MOF is crucial for mitochondrial and ciliary gene expression and essential for skin development.

This review highlights how forensic drug analysis in hair using modern instrumental techniques offers advantages such as easy sample collection and chronological tracking of drug use, emphasizing its value for law enforcement and other applications.

In this study, dexpanthenol exhibited antiepileptic and antidepressant-like effects in mice without impacting their motor coordination.
