This case study describes an uncommon variant of coudability hair in alopecia areata, where intermittent inflammatory processes result in alternating bands of lighter color and reduced hair shaft calibre.

This study observed that the Raman spectra of human hair cuticle vary with polarization and direction of signal collection, identifying certain spectral bands as markers sensitive to the structural changes in keratin secondary and tertiary structures.

This study examined the effectiveness of FT-Raman spectroscopy for detecting polymorphism in Lamivudine and Finasteride, highlighting its advantages over other methods due to its capability to provide sharp, well-resolved spectral bands and reduced sampling issues.

A gluten-free diet does not help hair regrowth in celiac disease patients with alopecia areata.

This study found that CMAD wool keratin may protect human hair from damage during repeated bleaching and permanent waving treatments.

In this study, carboxymethylalanyl disulfide keratin was shown to effectively prevent hair damage during repeated bleaching and permanent waving treatments.

This discussion provides a historical overview of modern hair restoration surgery and proposes a standardized graft classification system, but reports no new clinical results.

This study developed granular hydrogels with reversible interparticle cross-linking, finding they offer high mechanical stability and enhance cell recruitment, making them promising for injectable and 3D printable scaffolds in tissue engineering and therapeutic delivery.

Equol may help with antiaging and skin health by boosting collagen and blocking certain hormones.

This study proposed that the tiger tail phenomenon in trichothiodystrophy hair is caused by regular undulations of hair fibers, altering the optical properties seen under polarized light.

Iron therapy cured the boy's hair color issue.

In this study, researchers observed that the combination of hair progenitors and their micro-niche changes every three days in mouse zigzag hair, and disruptions in specific genes affected this rhythm, highlighting the importance of this periodic change for normal hair morphology.

This study suggests that pili annulati is likely more common than traditionally thought, highlighting the importance of recognizing its characteristic clinical and trichoscopic features for accurate diagnosis.

This study suggests that the transcription factor PDF2 in Arabidopsis may link lipid sensing with growth responses to phosphate starvation by acting as a sensor for lyso-PCs through its START domain.

This study found that an octapeptide binding to Lgr5 can enhance the proliferation and differentiation of human primary hair cells by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, suggesting its potential as a treatment for hair loss in androgenetic alopecia.

In this case report, a 17-year-old male on sodium valproate therapy developed rare longitudinal melanonychia, suggesting sodium valproate can induce nail pigmentation as a side effect.

This study introduces a novel pro-drug formulation of all-trans retinoic acid that reduces skin inflammation and achieves sustained drug release over several days compared to traditional methods.

A woman experienced hair loss, nail changes, bone marrow suppression, and low blood protein after taking azathioprine.

This study found that finasteride competitively inhibits the enzyme AKR1D1 with low micromolar affinity but does not act as a mechanism-based inactivator.

This study reported that a newly developed bioadhesive and injectable hydrogel dressing, incorporating hyaluronate-gelatin and the antibiotic doxycycline, accelerated burn wound healing and skin regeneration in rats, highlighting its potential for clinical applications in burn injury therapy.

This study found that astrotactin-2 undergoes unique intramembrane proteolysis during maturation, revealing specific transmembrane topologies and substrate sequence requirements for cleavage.

This study reported that compound 16 (olean-12-en-3beta-ol, cinnamate) from Merremia peltata showed potential as an androgen receptor antagonist, suggesting it may benefit alopecia treatment based on molecular docking and ADME-Tox predictions.

This review examines mechanical and chemical causes of hair fiber adhesion failure and fracture patterns in the cell membrane complex, but presents no new experimental results.

This study used an in silico/in vitro approach to identify potential inhibitors of the enzyme SRD5A2, finding that the androgen receptor modulator MK-0773 is a moderate inhibitor, although it does not act as a covalent inhibitor like finasteride.

In this study, researchers used an integrated in silico approach to demonstrate that Polygonum multiflorum combats androgenetic alopecia via anthraquinone emodin, which targets PI3K catalytic subunits differently from traditional antiandrogenic treatments, showing potential as a novel therapeutic strategy.

This study observed that tannic acid significantly reduced hair shedding by 56.2% over seven days in human participants when used as a coating for controlled release of active compounds to hair follicles.

This paper explores the diverse patterns and social significance of Black hair, approaching it as an art form, mathematical pattern, and ethnomathematic entity, and seeks to dispel myths while highlighting its vast possibilities.

This study found that incorporating keratin extracted from hair into NBR modestly enhanced the mechanical properties and biodegradability of the rubber.

The researchers reported that increasing protein content in human hair keratin/calcium alginate blend films led to larger molecular aggregates, which influenced the films' physical properties such as light transmittance and tensile strength.

This article reviews the history and dermatologic side effects of alkylating agents used in chemotherapy, noting that some agents like chlorambucil can cause recurrent symptoms upon rechallenge, whereas others are tolerated.
