research Transcriptome profiling of whisker follicles in methamphetamine self-administered rats
Methamphetamine affects gene expression in rat whisker follicles, with key genes linked to addiction.
research The promoter of an androgen dependent gene in the hamster flank organ
Researchers found a gene in hamsters that responds to male hormones and may be indirectly controlled by them.
research Fail-tests of DNA methylation clocks, and development of a noise barometer for measuring epigenetic pressure of aging and disease
Elastic Net DNA methylation clocks are inaccurate for predicting age and health status; a "noise barometer" may better indicate aging and disease.
research Application of multi-omics techniques to androgenetic alopecia: Current status and perspectives
Multi-omics techniques help understand the molecular causes of androgenetic alopecia.
research Distinct mechanisms for sebaceous gland self-renewal and regeneration provide durability in response to injury
Sebaceous glands can regenerate after injury using stem cells from hair follicles.
research 3D cell culture stimulates the secretion of in vivo like extracellular vesicles
3D cell cultures produce extracellular vesicles similar to those in the body.
research Epithelial-Mesenchymal Micro-niches Govern Stem Cell Lineage Choices
Different small areas within hair follicles send specific signals that control what type of cells stem cells become.
research Catalytic Antibodies in Norm and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Catalytic antibodies are early indicators and active participants in the development of systemic lupus erythematosus.
research A Chemically Defined Culture for Tooth Reconstitution
A new culture system can grow tooth-like structures from dental cells but can't yet develop roots.

Targeting the p300/AR axis may help treat polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Targeting lymphoid-derived IL-17 signaling to delay skin aging
Blocking IL-17 signaling may reduce skin inflammation and delay aging.
research Skin Keratins
Keratins are important for skin cell health and their problems can cause diseases.
research Spatiotemporal control of CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing
The document concludes that while there are promising methods to control CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, more research is needed to overcome challenges related to safety and effectiveness for clinical use.
