This article reviews a case of alopecia triangularis temporalis, emphasizing the need for histopathological confirmation to avoid misdiagnosis and highlighting surgical correction as the preferred treatment for confirmed cases.

This study found that modifying biphasic calcium phosphate/poly(methyl methacrylate) bone cement with human hair keratin improves its hydrophilicity, mechanical properties, and supports bone repair in rats, indicating potential for orthopedic applications.

This study evaluated a microemulsion-based flushing fluid made with castor oil that effectively removed 84.85% of mud cake formed by drilling fluid, highlighting its Newtonian fluid behavior and high wettability inversion capability.

This study found that incorporating pig-hair fibers and green mussel shells in concrete increased compressive strength but decreased workability, suggesting potential use in structures not requiring strength above 28 MPa.

This study suggests that spiny keratoderma may be an ectopic hair formation on palms and soles, based on keratinization patterns observed using antikeratin antibodies and electron microscopy.

This compilation on contact and occupational dermatology in the Asia-Pacific region discusses various allergens and irritants without reporting new clinical findings.

Adding human hair to cement can make it tougher and better insulated but also more porous.

This study found that upregulation of NFIC may enhance proliferation and osteogenic/cementogenic differentiation in rat dental follicle cells.

This paper reviews recent advances in the design and use of injectable biomaterials for spinal degeneration treatment, highlighting the types of biomaterials like hydrogels and bone cements, and discussing key challenges and opportunities for clinical translation.

This study found that medullary cell content in mammal hair evolves from an amorphous form to a biphasic phase, with human and anthropoid hair containing both macrofibrils and microfibrils.

This study observed that human skin exhibits acute and chronic histological changes due to tick bites, including inflammation and changes in hair follicles, influenced by tick saliva and possible infections.

This study suggests that using stable isotope analysis on various tissues can effectively reconstruct individual life histories, providing insights into both the individual and broader population from the Romano-Christian period in Egypt.

This study demonstrated that cortisol, estradiol, and testosterone are preserved in archaeological human hair, allowing for the analysis of ancient stress and reproductive hormone patterns.

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 reported that adding human and horse hair fibers to concrete improved its mechanical properties and strength.

This article describes two cases of plica neuropathica, a rare hair condition involving severe matting, and discusses possible contributing factors and diagnosis methods while reporting no new scientific results.

This article discusses advancements in understanding how skin stem cells and fibroblasts contribute to scar formation, highlighting current and potential therapies aimed at preventing or reducing scarring, yet notes that effective treatments without significant side effects are still lacking.

Hormonal interactions, especially involving DHT and estrogen, play a key role in BPH development and treatment.

This review discusses recent advancements in scar reduction techniques, highlighting promising therapeutic targets and the role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in promoting scarless wound healing, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the experimental targets of fetal wound healing and evaluates existing therapies for scarless healing in adult skin, but reports no new research findings.

This review examines the major biomaterials used in skin wound healing and evaluates experimental therapies but reports no new research findings.

This study developed and validated a mass spectrometric method to measure hydroxy-androgens in serum, which aids in understanding androgen synthesis in castration resistant prostate cancer.

This study found that certain T cell-associated genes were upregulated in dogs with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome and vitiligo, suggesting a shared immunopathogenesis with humans.

This study found that finasteride decreased DHT-stimulated AR activity and cell growth in prostate cancer cells with mutant AR, but not in those with wild type AR.

This review discusses the potential of bioprinting technology in cosmetology, particularly for improving skin functions like pigmentation restoration and hair follicle development, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that dutasteride more effectively inhibited androgen receptor signaling and reduced cell growth compared to finasteride in prostate cancer cell models, with varying sensitivities across different cell lines.

This study found that intense pulsed light treatment primarily targets pigmented structures in hair follicles and may damage dermal papilla cells at high energy levels, but stem cells are mostly spared.

In this study, inducible whole-body Acly-knockout mice revealed that ACLY is essential for skin homeostasis, as its deficiency led to increased sebum production and skin abnormalities, indicating a vital role for cytosolic acetyl-CoA synthesis in preserving skin barrier integrity and systemic lipid regulation.

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 found a significant association between baldness patterns, particularly vertex and early-onset baldness, and an increased risk of prostate cancer.
