research Facial Appearance and Markers of Cardiometabolic Risk in Healthy Adult Men
Men's facial appearance shows age, body fat, and testosterone levels, not metabolic health.
research Extraskeletal actions of vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research Breakdown of Immune Tolerance in AIRE-Deficient Rats Induces a Severe Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathy–Candidiasis–Ectodermal Dystrophy–like Autoimmune Disease
AIRE-deficient rats developed severe autoimmune disease similar to APECED, useful for testing treatments.
research Chronic administration of minoxidil protects elastic fibers and stimulates their neosynthesis with improvement of the aorta mechanics in mice
Minoxidil helps protect and rebuild elastic fibers in arteries, improving artery function, especially in older females.
research An isotope dilution-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-based candidate reference measurement procedure for the quantification of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in human serum and plasma
A new method accurately measures DHEAS in blood, improving on current tests.
research Two Hydroxyproline Galactosyltransferases, GALT5 and GALT2, Function in Arabinogalactan-Protein Glycosylation, Growth and Development in Arabidopsis
GALT5 and GALT2 are important for plant growth and development because they help with protein glycosylation.
research Establishment of an in vitro organoid model of dermal papilla of human hair follicle
Researchers developed a 3D model of human hair follicle cells that can help understand hair growth and test new hair loss treatments.
research Electrospun Nanofibers for Biomedical, Sensing, and Energy Harvesting Functions
Electrospun nanofibers are promising for medical, sensing, and energy uses, especially with 3D printing.

We need better treatments for hair loss, and while test-tube methods are helpful, they can't fully replace animal tests for evaluating new hair growth treatments.
research The Role of T‐Helper 17 Cells and Regulatory T Cells in Acute Diffuse and Total Alopecia: The Increased Function of Regulatory T Cells May Explain the Favorable Prognosis
Increased regulatory T cell activity may lead to better outcomes in acute diffuse and total alopecia.
research Engineering immune-competent hair follicle microphysiological systems: from organoid assembly to dynamic immune modelling
Hair follicle systems are being engineered to better mimic natural hair follicles for studying hair disorders and testing treatments.
research Suicidality Risks Associated with Finasteride, a 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitor: An Evaluation of Real-World Data from the FDA Adverse Event Reports
Finasteride use may increase suicidality risk, especially in young men.
research Case Report: Compound heterozygous variants in LSS and TSPEAR genes causing hypotrichosis type 14 complicated with ectodermal dysplasia type 14
A child has a rare hair and skin disorder due to specific gene variants, suggesting broader genetic testing is needed.
