In this study, cosyntropin-induced cortisol spikes did not affect hair cortisol concentration in captive grizzly bears, contrasting with stress responses observed in free-ranging bears during capture.

In this study, adding disinfected feathers to the diet of captive Arctic foxes increased gut bacterial species diversity without changing overall abundance, potentially influencing immune response and physiological performance.

This review highlights the potential of 3D bioprinting in developing functional, patient-specific artificial skin, addressing limitations of traditional skin grafts and advancing regenerative medicine applications.

In this study, researchers used the Displacement Framework to explore how hair, especially in Black communities, serves as both a biological archive and a site of social pressure, with natural hair return symbolizing a move back to genetic origins.

This study applies the Displacement Framework to explore how hair serves as both a biological and social signal, highlighting the costs of institutional demands for hair straightening in Black communities, which the natural hair movement counters by returning to natural hair.

In this study, researchers investigated how rhizosphere microorganisms, including specific bacteria and fungi, can regulate plant root architecture in acidic red soils by mechanisms such as hormone production and phosphorus solubilization, potentially enhancing soil productivity.

In this study, researchers analyzed alpaca skin morphology and found that type I and IV collagen are present in both the epidermis and dermis, while type III collagen is found only in the dermis.

This study demonstrated that a CNN-based model using VGG-16 architecture achieved a 94.5% accuracy in classifying ten types of hair diseases, implying a promising tool for aiding health professionals in diagnosing hair conditions accurately.

This study found that steroid reproductive hormones such as estradiol and testosterone can be preserved and analyzed in archaeological human hair, providing new insights into ancient health and fertility.

This study introduced a new adaptive microrhizotron for non-destructive observation of pepper root traits, finding that specific installation patterns significantly enhanced root interception probability while effectively measuring root architecture for plant research.

This study found elevated levels of dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls in the fur of juvenile Australian fur seals with alopecia, suggesting a possible link to the syndrome and underscoring fur's utility for monitoring exposure.

In this research, the authors identify coordinated mechanical forces as crucial for hair follicle development in mammals, with contractile, proliferative, and proteolytic activities facilitating the formation and sectioning of epithelial structures crucial for forming a functional tissue.

This study investigated neonatal mortality and health threats to Guadalupe fur seals in Mexico's San Benito Archipelago, finding a 29.52% mortality rate largely due to trauma and emaciation/infectious disease, with high rates of alopecia syndrome and entanglement linked to marine debris, primarily from local sources.

In this study, researchers developed a deep learning model that efficiently classifies five degrees of harm with high accuracy, achieving up to 98% precision, recall, and F1-score across various harm levels, indicating strong potential for practical application in automated harm evaluation.

This research identified a genetic mutation in Brachypodium distachyon that initially allows root hair initiation but fails to elongate them, while also affecting root growth and nitrate sensitivity; the mutation is linked to a previously uncharacterized cyclin-dependent kinase-like gene.

This study explored 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels in hair samples from participants in Aberdeen and suggested potential links between hair vitamin D levels, seasonal UVB exposure, and marine diet in both modern and archaeological contexts.

This study is the first to detail major geriatric diseases in aged Julia Creek dunnarts, particularly highlighting hormonal issues like cystic glandular hyperplasia in females and testicular degeneration in males, suggesting these conditions are linked to aging and potentially hormonal dysregulation.

In this study, researchers found that fashion designs inspired by Saudi architectural structures enhanced creativity and technical skills among fashion students, with high scores on creativity (92.3 to 95.5) and techniques (91.8 to 97.5), supporting the study's hypotheses.

This study is the first to report major spontaneous diseases in aging Julia Creek dunnarts, highlighting hormonal dysregulation and lymphoid neoplasia as common conditions in this endangered species.

This study is the first to document significant age-related pathologies in endangered captive Julia Creek dunnarts, highlighting hormonal dysregulation and reproductive issues in females, while males exhibited higher occurrences of cutaneous diseases and testicular degeneration, providing valuable insight for conservation efforts.

This study identified three new genetic loci associated with PCOS and found a similar genetic structure across different diagnostic criteria, suggesting a genetic basis for shared metabolic traits and potential causal links to other conditions.

This study reports that hair fibers degrade most in acidic sandy clay, while silicone oil treatment is effective for conserving various hair types and artifacts.

Finasteride increases hair growth, prolongs hair cycle, and lowers dihydrotestosterone levels.

This review discusses the relationship between skin microbiome changes and conditions such as ageing and skin disease, emphasizing the need for further research, but reports no new findings.

This paper reviews the evolution of skin appendages and keratin-associated proteins among amniotes, proposing a model for their genetic divergence without new experimental results.

In this study, men appeared older than their actual age when factors like greying hair, total cholesterol, and hemoglobin levels were present, whereas women appeared younger with different associated factors.

This study demonstrates that c-MYC overexpression in sebaceous glands affects differentiation via a regulatory axis involving the androgen receptor and p53, influencing carcinoma formation outcomes.

This study found that minoxidil suppressed androgen receptor functions and stability, suggesting its potential use in treating diseases related to the androgen-AR pathway.

This study identified a new PNPLA1 mutation in a Spanish family with autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis.
