December 2020 in “Tissue Barriers” The study explored the role of loricrin, an epidermal protein, in maintaining skin homeostasis and its impact on the immune system. Despite the unexpected discovery of the asymptomatic loricrin knockout (LKO) phenotype, LKO mice revealed altered homeostasis due to redox-driven backup responses. The research aimed to understand how changes in epidermal differentiation affect immune signaling within the skin. By reviewing existing evidence, the study proposed an integrated view of how the peripheral immune system is regulated in squamous epithelial tissue with truncated differentiation, potentially identifying epidermal factors that influence immune effector functions.

July 2025 in “The Journal of Physiology” C-tactile nerves are sensitive to hair movement.
May 2026 in “International Journal of Veterinary Science” This study investigated the relationship between dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels and crowing complexity in 60 Kokok Balenggek roosters. The research found that higher DHT levels were negatively associated with the number of "lenggek" phrases and syllable count in the roosters' crowing, as shown by Poisson and multiple linear regression analyses. Spearman correlations supported these findings, and a principal component analysis-derived complexity index also indicated reduced crowing complexity at higher DHT levels. These results suggest that DHT is a significant endocrine factor influencing crowing complexity in this indigenous chicken breed, highlighting the importance of standardized vocal phenotyping in poultry research.
