Hair follicle stem cells can become heart muscle cells.

In this study, researchers observed temporary skin reactions at BCG vaccination sites following the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA vaccine in five patients, suggesting underreported occurrences.

This study found that human hair follicles demonstrated a dose-dependent response to light in an ex vivo photoepilation model, which could predict the clinical efficacy and permanency of light-based hair removal devices.

This study generated a transcriptomic map of human hair follicles, identifying compartment-specific gene expression profiles that can aid in developing targeted therapies for hair follicle disorders.

This preliminary study found that poplar seed hair fibers have promising properties for use as environmentally friendly, lightweight insulation, with similar thermal resistance to wool and polyester despite being slightly less effective than down.

Electric current quickly reduces hand sweating but the effect doesn't last long.

This review highlights the potential of transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) as a non-invasive and affordable treatment for brain diseases, summarizing recent advances and successful protocols based on over two decades of research.

This study found that Prdm1 is crucial for whisker development in mice, affecting multiple signaling pathways and possibly playing a role in primates' evolutionary loss of vibrissae.

Using Indian marking nut sap for hair loss caused a skin rash on a woman's face.

In a mouse model of deep skin burns, this study found that a neuro-inspired biomimetic microreactor, when delivered through a hydrogel and activated by near-infrared light, significantly promoted functional skin regeneration, sensory recovery, and hair follicle formation.

This study found that the Nod factor from Rhizobium meliloti, particularly at concentrations of 10-8 and 10-7 M, induced specific membrane depolarization and root-hair deformation in Medicago sativa, depending on the stage of cell differentiation.

This study found that the treatment group experienced a higher average increase in hair counts than the placebo group, but the difference was not statistically significant.

This study found that combining microneedle treatments with 5% minoxidil topical solution led to the greatest increase in hair density among Chinese men with androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that repeated cycles of wetting and blow-drying hair fibers can cause cracks in the hair cuticles, particularly among individuals who frequently blow-dry their hair.

This study surveyed UK patients who experienced adverse events from Botulinum Toxin for cosmetic purposes, finding 79% reported issues like long-lasting anxiety, and highlighting low awareness of regulatory bodies and reporting structures.

In this study, researchers found that synchronization between expanding epithelial cells and background mesenchymal cells in the mouse hair cycle may be maintained by inhibitory regulation, with potential mediators of this regulation identified.

This study found that 1064 nm QS Nd:YAG laser treatment effectively lightens hair and improves skin appearance in Indian subjects with minimal adverse effects, offering a safer alternative to chemical lightening products.

This study reported that using a Cutera Xeo laser with specific probes may help treat rosacea symptoms like diffuse facial erythema and telangiectasias, with some risks like bruises and hypopigmentation.

In this study conducted among adult dermatology clinic attendees in Saudi Arabia, laser hair removal-related anxiety was generally low, but misconceptions were common; increased knowledge was linked to reduced anxiety, suggesting educational interventions could improve informed decision-making.

In this study, activating TRPV1 nociceptors in mice skin stimulated dormant hair follicles and promoted hair growth through a mechanism involving dermal macrophages, fibroblasts, and neuropeptides, highlighting a new role for nociceptors in tissue recovery after injury.

In this study, a novel electrospun dressing patch made with radially oriented PHBV nanofibers and loaded with berberine was shown to significantly accelerate diabetic wound healing in mice, achieving 100% wound closure in 18 days while also demonstrating improved mechanical and anti-inflammatory properties.

This study reveals that human hair follicles transition between active and dormant states stochastically, challenging the idea of a cyclical automaton controlling hair growth.

This study found that XP-endo Finisher R was approximately twice as effective as passive ultrasonic irrigation in removing root filling material from curved mesiobuccal canals of maxillary molars.

This review identified significant effects of photobiomodulation therapy on pain reduction in burning mouth syndrome, disability in knee osteoarthritis, and fatigue in fibromyalgia, but noted that most outcomes had low-to-moderate certainty of evidence, indicating a need for further high-quality trials.

A new microneedle patch effectively and safely treats alopecia areata.

This study identified a new mutation in SELH/Bc mice causing distinctive whisker and body hair abnormalities, mapped near the type I keratin cluster on chromosome 11.

This report highlights a case where dermoscopic observation of corkscrew hairs in a young woman led to the diagnosis of trichotillomania, emphasizing its role in distinguishing this psychiatric disorder from other forms of non-scarring alopecia and highlighting the importance of timely intervention.

This case study describes an acquired localized form of trichorrhexis nodosa resulting from physical-chemical trauma.
