research Convergent Genesis of an Adult Neural Crest-Like Dermal Stem Cell from Distinct Developmental Origins
Skin-derived precursors in hair follicles come from different origins but function similarly.
research Neural Mechanisms of Hair Growth Control
Nerves and chemicals in the body can affect hair growth and loss.
research Endocrine control of benign prostatic hyperplasia
Hormones and metabolism play a complex role in prostate enlargement, and more research is needed to improve diagnosis and treatment.
research A role for p75 neurotrophin receptor in the control of apoptosis‐driven hair follicle regression
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important for hair follicle regression by controlling cell death.
research Clinical Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Finasteride
Finasteride helps regrow hair and shrink prostate by reducing DHT, with some sexual side effects.

research Depression, anxiety and perceived stress in women with and without PCOS: a community-based study
Women with PCOS are more likely to suffer from depression, anxiety, and stress.
research Multidisciplinary treatment of obesity with a protein-sparing modified fast: results in 668 outpatients.
A weight loss program with a special fast helped patients lose an average of 41-47 pounds and improved their health, but maintaining the weight loss was challenging.
research Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence
Stress hormone corticosterone blocks a growth factor to slow down hair stem cell activity and hair growth.
research Clinical and biological impact of the exposome on the skin
Environmental factors, hormones, nutrition, and stress all significantly affect skin health and aging.
research Adverse effects of common medications on male fertility
Some common medications can harm male fertility, but many effects can be reversed.
research Mast cell deficient and neurokinin-1 receptor knockout mice are protected from stress-induced hair growth inhibition
Certain mice without specific receptors or mast cells don't lose hair from stress.
research Stem cells and the circadian clock
The circadian clock influences the behavior and regeneration of stem cells in the body.
research Repurposing of approved cardiovascular drugs
Some heart drugs show promise for other conditions, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Exosomes and Their Bioengineering Strategies in the Cutaneous Wound Healing and Related Complications: Current Knowledge and Future Perspectives
Engineered exosomes show promise for improving wound healing but face challenges in clinical use.
research Regeneration of skin appendages and nerves: current status and further challenges
Progress has been made in skin and nerve regeneration, but more research is needed to improve methods and ensure safety.
research Neuronal plasticity of the “brain–skin connection”: stress-triggered up-regulation of neuropeptides in dorsal root ganglia and skin via nerve growth factor-dependent pathways
Stress increases certain chemicals in the skin and nerves, which might worsen skin conditions.
research Assessment of the obese patient
Doctors need to be better prepared to assess and treat obesity in patients.
research Noggin overexpression inhibits eyelid opening by altering epidermal apoptosis and differentiation
