The document concludes that regenerating functional ectodermal organs like teeth and hair is promising for future therapies.
research Cortisol levels in blood and hair of unanesthetized grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) following intravenous cosyntropin injection
Injecting cosyntropin into grizzly bears increases blood cortisol but doesn't change hair cortisol levels.
research A model system for long-term serum-free suspension organ culture of human fetal tissues: experiments on digits and skin from multiple body regions
Scientists developed a method to grow human fetal skin and digits in a lab for 3-4 weeks, which could help study skin features and understand genetic interactions in tissue formation.

MSC-Exos can aid organ development and offer therapeutic benefits for various conditions.
research The Hair Follicle: A Paradoxical Androgen Target Organ
Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.
research LP-159 Studying the disease activity and the degree of internal organ damage in systemic lupus erythematosus patients in the Kazakh population
Higher disease activity in systemic lupus erythematosus is strongly linked to more internal organ damage.
research Frontotemporal dementia with parkinsonism presenting as posterior cortical atrophy
A woman's unique dementia was misdiagnosed, a genetic mutation increases Parkinson's risk with age, and finasteride may help with Tourette syndrome.
research Autophagy is essential for maintaining the growth of a human (mini-)organ: Evidence from scalp hair follicle organ culture
Autophagy is important for human hair growth and health.
research Adrenal 21-hydroxylase gene mutations in Slovenian hyperandrogenic women: evaluation of corticotrophin stimulation and HLA polymorphisms in screening for carrier status
The study concluded that testing hormone levels after stimulation is not reliable for identifying carriers of 21-hydroxylase deficiency; genetic testing is necessary.
