L-PGDS has specific binding sites for its functions and could help in drug delivery system design.
research Tcf3 and Lef1 regulate lineage differentiation of multipotent stem cells in skin
Tcf3 and Lef1 are key in deciding skin stem cell roles.
research Vitamin D Receptor: New Assignments for an Already Busy Receptor
The vitamin D receptor is involved in multiple body functions beyond calcium regulation, including immune response and rapid reactions not related to gene activity.
research Root hair growth in Arabidopsis thaliana is directed by calcium and an endogenous polarity
Calcium affects where root hairs grow, but other unknown factors determine their growth direction.
research Androgen Signaling Regulates SARS-CoV-2 Receptor Levels and Is Associated with Severe COVID-19 Symptoms in Men
Male hormones affect COVID-19 severity and certain drugs targeting these hormones could help reduce the risk.
research Do men’s faces really signal heritable immunocompetence?
Masculine facial features may not reliably indicate heritable health, and more research is needed.
research The blastema and epimorphic regeneration in mammals
Mammals might fail to regenerate not because they lack the right cells, but because of how cells respond to their surroundings, and changing this environment could enhance regeneration.
research The Aesthetics of Follicular Transplantation
The document concludes that good cosmetic outcomes in hair transplantation depend on the surgeon's artistic skill and careful planning.
research Glutamine Metabolism Controls Stem Cell Fate Reversibility and Long-Term Maintenance in the Hair Follicle
Glutamine metabolism affects hair stem cell maintenance and their ability to change back to stem cells.
research Module-based complexity formation: periodic patterning in feathers and hairs
The conclusion is that understanding how feathers and hairs pattern can help in developing hair regeneration treatments.
research Cellular senescence in tissue repair: every cloud has a silver lining
Cell aging can be both good and bad for tissue repair.
research 5α-Reductase inhibitors in androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride and dutasteride effectively treat hair loss in men and women, but may cause side effects like low libido and depression.
research Towards a consensus on how to diagnose and quantify female pattern hair loss – The ‘Female Pattern Hair Loss Severity Index (FPHL-SI)’

The new gel effectively treats MRSA-infected wounds for longer.
research Uncovering the complex relationship between balding, testosterone and skin cancers in men
Men with baldness are more prone to skin cancers on the scalp due to sun exposure, not testosterone.
research "You Need a Makeover!": The Social Construction of Female Body Image in "A Makeover Story", W"hat Not to Wear", and "Extreme Makeover"
