Effectiveness and Safety of Setmelanotide in a Patient With a Heterozygous PCSK1 Deficiency
ABSTRACT Setmelanotide, a melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) agonist, is a promising pharmacological treatment option for people with rare monogenic obesity conditions affecting the leptin‐melanocortin signaling pathway, including proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 1 (PCSK1) gene mutations.

Shelterin TPP1 Promotes Hair Regeneration Through Activating Bulge Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Elongation of telomeres by increasing TPP1, through genetic and pharmacological approaches, promotes hair follicle bulge stem cell mobilization and migration, leading to accelerated telogen‐to‐anagen transition and hair regeneration. This work identifies TPP1 as a master regulator and therapeutic target for alopecia. ABSTRACT Telomere shortening drives
