This study found that transplanting GFP transgenic tail skin onto wild-type mice leads to partial replacement of dermis, nerves, and blood vessels by recipient tissue after six months, while epidermis, hair follicles, and sebaceous glands persist from the graft.

This study found that a modest increase in dietary zinc over six months resulted in a detectable increase in sulfur and zinc counts in individual hairs, suggesting a non-invasive method to monitor zinc intake effects.

This study suggests that hair analysis detecting trace elements like copper and iron may help in screening for diseases such as hepatocellular carcinoma and osteoporosis, due to altered element concentrations in patients.

This study found that women with diffuse alopecia exhibited deficiencies in several trace elements, including sulfur, iron, and potassium, while men showed deficiencies in calcium, sulfur, and zinc.

This study suggests that hair analysis could serve as a diagnostic tool for detecting calcium channel activity, which influences hair calcium levels and may indicate calcium deficiency or related disease states.
