This study used whole-genome resequencing to analyze genetic diversity and selection in 17 rabbit breeds, identifying genes linked to traits like coat color and body size, which could inform breeding and conservation efforts.

Hair analysis may help monitor health in children with Down syndrome and obesity.

This study reported the development of reliable discriminative models using anthropometric and somatotypological indicators to classify Ukrainian women as typical for healthy individuals or those with urticaria, as well as distinguishing between mild or severe acute urticaria, with high accuracy in most cases.

This study found that the structure and mineral content of dromedary camel hair, specifically the medulla patterns, medulla index, and elemental composition, change with age, revealing differences among camels aged 1 year, 3-5 years, and 8-10 years.

This study found considerable variation in hair shaft proteomic profiles among Caucasian, African-American, Kenyan, and Korean subjects, with individual and site-specific differences observed.

This study used proteomic profiling to reveal significant individual and site-specific differences in human hair shaft proteins, which may improve the differentiation of hair based on ethnic origin and individual identity.

In this study, researchers found that the naked (N) gene in mice indirectly affects the synthesis of structural proteins in mouse hair, resulting in reduced high tyrosine protein content and unusual amino acid compositions.

In this study, oral administration of Lactococcus lactis strain H61 to senescence-accelerated mice was linked to reduced bone density loss, less skin ulcer incidence, and reduced hair loss, along with altered immune responses.

This study found significant differences in scalp microbiome composition and volatile organic metabolites between individuals with alopecia areata and healthy controls, suggesting potential microbiome-related therapeutic interventions for hair growth disorders.

This study examined the phytochemicals and antioxidant activities of methanolic extracts from Cameroonian Prunus africana bark and Leea indica and Paullinia pinnata leaves, identifying various phenolic compounds and significant antioxidant properties through multiple assays.

This study found that extracts from Geranium pyrenaicum show promising antioxidant, enzyme inhibitory, and antiviral activities, particularly the methanolic extract's antiviral activity against HSV-1.

This study found that hair proteome profiling and genetically variant peptide identification in hairs remained effective after an explosive blast, indicating potential for forensic human identification despite damage.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had a lower heart rate compared to healthy controls and showed disease-severity-related changes in body composition, though the clinical importance of these findings is still unclear.

This study introduced a novel in vitro assay for tracking melanosome transfer between melanocytes and keratinocytes, facilitating the quantification of melanin transfer and supporting the role of filopodia as a conduit.

This study found that women with PCOS had higher body fat and worse insulin resistance than non-PCOS women, with body composition influencing metabolic profiles independently of PCOS status.

This review discusses various forensic applications of hair analysis, such as species identification and drug addiction testing, and reports no new study results.

This study reported that in embryo transfer cycles for women with nonclassic 21-hydroxylase deficiency, dexamethasone use was associated with improved pregnancy rates, and maintaining a BMI below 23.36 kg/m² increased pregnancy probabilities.

This review examines the phytochemistry, biological activities, and potential applications of Akebia species in medicine and cosmetology, highlighting the differences in chemical composition between A. quinata and A. trifoliata.

This study identified a single autosomal recessive gene responsible for hypotrichosis in a mutant rabbit strain, affecting hair growth and causing epidermal and hair follicle abnormalities.

This study found that skin-derived precursor cells in mice can originate from both neural crest and somite lineages but show functional similarities regardless of their developmental origins.

This study found that stress plays a significant role in altering phenotypic features and body composition among PCOS patients, potentially worsening due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

This study found that both natural and environmental selection have significantly influenced the goat genome, revealing genetic loci tied to adaptation, fitness, and productive traits, more so than artificial selection, across various goat populations.

This study is designed to explore how circadian rhythms are affected by obesity and mental health conditions, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, using biological and lifestyle data from independently living adults.

This study used proteomics to identify various proteins in human hair, which may help develop novel biomarkers for hair health, disease, and aging.

This study found hair regrowth in the majority of AA-affected mice and rats treated with diphencyprone, suggesting its potential utility for understanding human alopecia areata and the drug's therapeutic action.

This study observed that the cutaneous microbiome in psoriasis patients differs both qualitatively and quantitatively from healthy individuals, suggesting a potential link to psoriasis pathogenesis.

This review presents the practice of using hair bioelement analysis to assess nutritional status or environmental exposure, proposing complex interactions and hypotheses regarding depression and autism but reports no new clinical results.

This study investigated how 2D and 3D cell culturing methods influence hair follicle morphogenesis, finding that 3D cultures responded more expectedly to minoxidil while 2D cultures reacted better to DHT treatment, challenging the assumption that 3D cultures are always superior.

This study investigated the extracellular polysaccharides from the edible green alga Parachlorella sp. BX1.5, finding that they have potential applications in cosmetics and health products due to their stability, antioxidant properties, and effects on hair growth in mice.

In this study, the researchers used dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome exhibit a central fat distribution pattern despite not having increased overall fat compared to controls, suggesting this method's potential utility in diagnosing and monitoring PCOS.
