This review highlights that in children, hair loss can be attributed to diverse conditions like alopecia areata and tinea capitis, and stresses the importance of a holistic approach to diagnosis and management, including psychosocial support due to limited effective treatments.

This study demonstrated that urea significantly accelerates the diffusion of poly(ethylene imine) into bleached human hair by increasing the diffusion coefficient twofold.

This study identified a new type II cytokeratin, named K6hf, exclusively expressed in the companion layer of the human hair follicle, distinguishing it from other keratins and suggesting a unique biochemical role.

This study describes a new method for extracting red mordant dyes from wool fibers using ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid and N,N-dimethyl formamide, preserving the fibers for further examination.

This study introduced a new method for extracting red mordant dyes from wool fibers that preserved the fibers for further analysis and allowed for spectrophotometric examination of the dyes' absorption curves.

This article reviews the potential of inhalation therapy to restore pulmonary elastin fibers in COPD patients and highlights the need for studies to test its feasibility; it reports no new research findings.

This review discusses the role of stem cell progeny as integral components of stem cell niches, offering feedback that may influence different stem cell systems' microenvironments, but it presents no new research findings.

This study suggests that ethylene and lignoceric acid (C24:0) may promote cotton fiber and Arabidopsis root hair growth by activating the pectin biosynthesis network.

Human hair's ability to get wet is complex and can change with treatments, damage, and environment.

This study found that a dopamine-methacrylated hyaluronic acid hydrogel enhances the efficacy of adipose-derived stem cells in promoting skin regeneration, potentially involving the Notch signaling pathway.

In this study, experimentally induced weight loss in merino sheep led to a decrease in wool fiber diameter and increased expression of certain high sulfur and glycine-tyrosine proteins, potentially impacting wool quality and industry preferences.

This study reports that biomass activated carbon fibers derived from metaplexis japonica seed hair effectively adsorb methylene blue dye, demonstrating high capacity and rapid adsorption performance.

This study demonstrated that a bio-3D printed artificial skin scaffold, seeded with adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells, showed promising wound healing properties by enhancing cell recruitment, migration, and gene expression related to tissue regeneration.

Light scatters differently from elliptical hair fibers than from circular ones, and a new model better predicts this behavior, especially for shiny highlights.

This study found that pigmented hair-thickening fibers improved the appearance of scalp alopecia in patients with epidermolysis bullosa, although they may cause pruritus and should be used cautiously.

This study reported that albino Wistar rats exposed to chemical hair straighteners showed significant hair fiber damage and scalp skin deterioration, which worsened with repeated and prolonged application, highlighting the cytotoxic potential of these products and potential systemic risks.

This study found that in mice, competition for hair follicles guides the organization of follicle-innervating LTMR neurons during early development, with different neuronal subtypes showing varying adaptive responses to increased neuron populations.

This article discusses the role of neurohormones and neuropeptides in hair follicle pigmentation and outlines promising neuroendocrinological strategies to address greying and damage, but reports no new clinical results.

The review concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires proper biopsy techniques and understanding the hair growth cycle and underlying causes.

This practical guide introduces methods to study human dermal white adipose tissue but does not report new clinical results, emphasizing available techniques and staining protocols.

This study found that an improved flap model in nude mice significantly reduces the time needed for hair induction compared to the traditional method, likely due to enhanced blood supply at the transplantation sites.

This study reported that a Megsin-Cre transgene enables genetic manipulation primarily in skin, forestomach, and esophagus tissues, offering a new tool for studying development and diseases in these areas.

This study investigated the effect of peracetic acid treatment on hair fiber structure and found that disulfide bond oxidation altered thermal properties while preserving the α-crystal structure, suggesting different stabilizing interactions in hair fibers.

This article presents a comprehensive guide for classifying human hair follicle cycle stages in vivo using scalp xenografts on immunocompromised mice, offering valuable resources for researchers in the field.

This study presents a novel in vitro assay using human folliculoid microspheres to research hair growth, which may facilitate preclinical testing of hair growth-modulatory agents.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma was more effective for treating alopecia areata than topical 5% minoxidil, leading to earlier hair regrowth and reduction in hair abnormalities.

This study found that SK2 channels in sensory terminals of rat muscle spindles and hair follicles may play a crucial role in modulating mechanosensory transduction by influencing receptor potentials through Ca2+-activated K+ currents.

This review found that Sansevieria trifasciata contains numerous chemical compounds and has been traditionally used to treat various ailments, with prior studies confirming its pharmacological activities such as anti-ulcer, antibacterial, antioxidant, antidiabetic, and anticancer effects, among others.

This case report describes the first documented occurrence of hemi-Isaac's syndrome or acquired neuromyotonia affecting only one side of the body, with symptoms improving after immunomodulatory treatment.

This study constructed a comprehensive atlas of prenatal human skin, revealing that innate immune cells, such as macrophages, play a crucial role in skin morphogenesis by interacting with non-immune cells, influencing hair follicle formation and angiogenesis beyond their traditional immune functions.
