This study found that α-MSH administration before skin wounding in adult mice reduced inflammation and scar area, suggesting a potential pathway to more regenerative healing.

This study found that improved outcomes in scalp surgery were achieved by utilizing knowledge of the surgical anatomy of the scalp to avoid complications like unsightly scars and distorted hair patterns.

This study found that unsaturated fatty acids are more abundant in the cortex of human hair than on its surface, and steryl glycoside-like lipids may help bind the cuticle to the cortex.

This paper examines how societal constructs of gender influence the treatment of idiopathic hirsutism in women, emphasizing the impact of perceived femininity on psychological stress and commercial depilatory actions.

This study found that only one upper portion of a bisected human hair follicle successfully regenerated a complete new follicle with a pigmented hair in nude mice, although the overall success rate was very low.

This study found that a self-assessed modified Ferriman-Gallwey score of 10 or higher indicates excess body hair, and suggests androstenedione measurement should accompany testosterone when evaluating hyperandrogenism.

This study found that experiencing childhood abuse is associated with higher BMI, but hair cortisol and cortisone do not mediate this relationship.

Some oils can penetrate hair and reduce the stickiness between fibers, but mineral oil cannot.

This review discusses the impact of various external factors like cosmetics, traction, and radiation on hair health and color, but reports no new findings.

This study suggests the possibility of regenerating hair follicle structures in vitro using hiPSC-derived cell composites, which might reduce reliance on human tissue-derived cells for hair bioengineering.

This study found that cultured mouse dermal papilla (mDP) cells can induce hair follicle neogenesis in de novo regenerated skin tissues grafted onto mice.

This study reports a good correlation between the curvature of human eyelashes and the displacement of the neutral axis, influenced by the non-uniform thickness of the outer cuticle layer.

In this study, echocardiographic measures of cardiac function in women with polycystic ovary syndrome were found to be similar to those of healthy women.

This study reports two cases where pili anulati, typically a non-fragile hair condition, showed increased fragility due to androgenetic alopecia, causing hair shaft fracturing in the affected area.

This article reviews the role of keratins in epithelial function and structure, discussing their involvement in growth control, organelle functions, and pathomechanisms of disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that gamma-ray irradiation affects hair follicle density, structure, and pigmentation in mice, with some changes observed in later hair cycles.

This report describes a rare case of angiokeratomas on both the upper eyelids and scrotum, adding to the limited literature on eyelid occurrences and discussing potential causes.

The book discussed in this abstract is a comprehensive guide to hair analysis, detailing the latest methods and applications across various fields such as toxicology and drug monitoring, designed for both newcomers and experts in the field.

In this study, researchers used an evolutionary-rate-based method to identify genetic elements associated with reduced hair in mammals, finding a dichotomy between accelerated coding sequences and noncoding regulatory elements influencing hair growth.

This study observed structural and molecular changes in Ganxi goat skin that adapt to hot and humid climates and suggested that GSDMA might play a role in hair follicle regulation and skin homeostasis, though further research is needed to confirm its function in environmental adaptation.

This study identified significant differences in medullary structure, hair length, and root diameter among dorsal guard hairs of red foxes, golden jackals, and gray wolves in Turkey.

The document explains how hair follicles develop, their structure, and how they grow.

This chapter discusses genetic polymorphisms related to phenotypes that differentiate between populations and reports no new results; it highlights the role of DNA technology in understanding human adaptation history.

This chapter reviews the anatomy and structure of hair, discusses hair damage and analyses, and explores methods for processing hair changes, but presents no new research findings.

This study suggests that fish oil, specifically its components EPA and DHA, play a beneficial role in promoting skin health by supporting epidermal growth and reducing proinflammatory cytokines.

This research reports that the polyG fragment within the Hoxc13 protein alters its gene regulatory functions, which could have influenced mammalian hair evolution by affecting pathways related to hair follicle development.

This study analyzed gray hair, revealing that it differs from pigmented hair in follicular activity, oxidative balance, and structure, impacting coloring processes and necessitating adapted techniques to maintain hair quality.

This study observed distinct variations in hair medulla patterns among people with different Ayurvedic Prakruti types, linking stronger hair integrity to Kapha-dominant types and weaker, fragmented medullae to Vata and Pitta-dominant types, potentially aiding in Dosha-specific hair care and assessment.

This review discusses the role of nutrients in hair graying management and finds a possible link between low copper, iron, and vitamin B12 levels and premature hair graying.

This study found that certain tandem repeats predict darker hair color across diverse ancestry groups and can contribute to a polygenic score for hair color, independent of SNP variation.
