In this study, participants with psoriasis vulgaris and chronic urticaria chose Chinese herbal medicine due to beliefs about its safety and effectiveness in preventing relapse, although convenience and clinical evidence remain important considerations.

This review suggests that Chinese herbal medicine may help reduce side effects of chemotherapy in breast cancer patients, but a lack of high-quality trials limits confidence in this finding.

Protease Nexin-1 is found in human hair growth cells and is affected by male hormones.

In this study, mice exposed to prolonged space conditions demonstrated skin atrophy, altered hair follicle cycles, and significant changes in the gene expression associated with skin muscle health.

This article discusses the anatomical and biological aspects of hair follicle stem cells in the bulge region but reports no new research findings.

This review examines the origins and mechanisms of tumor initiation in common skin cancers, but does not present new experimental findings; it emphasizes the need for further research on cancer stem cells.

This review discusses traditional and complementary medicine practices for skin health, examining existing literature and emphasizing the challenge of conducting research in these areas, without providing new clinical results.

This study observed in mouse skin that trichohyalin granules in hair follicles transform into filamentous structures as inner root sheath cells differentiate and cornify.

This review discusses the roles of filaggrin and trichohyalin in keratinocyte differentiation and reports no new results; the authors introduce possible hybrid granules in tongue epithelia.

This study found that keratin filament networks in SG1 cells of mice undergo dynamic changes during cornification, impacting the barrier function of the stratum corneum.

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.

In this case study, electron microscopy revealed that harlequin ichthyosis involves giant mitochondria in keratinocytes and abnormal lamellar granule development, which may contribute to pathogenesis through altered lipid metabolism.

This study found that trichohyalin is expressed in various normal and pathological epithelia beyond hair follicle cells, where it is uniquely associated with filaggrin, suggesting a specific role in aggregating K6/K16-containing intermediate filaments.

This study found that trichohyalin, a protein previously thought to be restricted to hair and tongue, is also present in isolated cells within the granular layer and stratum corneum of normal human epidermis.

This study demonstrated that in live rodents, actin filaments adjust their structure to facilitate membrane transfer between cellular compartments with different biophysical properties.

This review discusses Charnoly bodies as biomarkers of cell injury and potential therapeutic targets in neurodegenerative, cardiovascular, and cancer treatments but reports no new clinical results.

This case study reports a peculiar variant of an epidermal cyst in a patient, featuring unique characteristics like brownish, lumpy contents resembling bone marrow.

This study used atomic force microscopy to image surface structures of human epidermal melanocytes, hair follicle amelanotic melanocytes, and mouse melanoma cells, revealing differences in branch structure and granule distribution.

This study characterized the mouse profilaggrin gene, finding it structurally identical to its human counterpart, and noted differences in protein-coding regions that could impact epidermal differentiation.

This study found that human trichohyalin has a unique protein sequence potentially contributing to at least three important functions in hair follicle and epidermal cells.

This study found that small proline-rich proteins modify the biomechanical properties of cornified cell envelopes in rodent forestomachs, potentially affecting the tissue's ability to withstand mechanical stress.

This study suggests that the cell membrane complex in hair cuticles contains hydrophilic regions with disulfide bonds allowing polymer uptake and hydrophobic lamella-like lipid layers.

This study demonstrates that the trichohyalin gene is located at chromosomal region 1q21, where several other genes related to epidermal differentiation also map.

This study introduces the term "hair matrix cyst" for a cyst with both pilomatricoma and epidermal cyst characteristics, highlighting its potential for misdiagnosis among similar skin conditions.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy with argon sputter etching visualizes hair lipids at the cell membrane complex as distinctive convex structures, shedding light on their role and localization in human hair.

This study found that a hydrogel formulation containing insulin, chitosan, and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose improved wound healing in diabetic mice, promoting faster wound closure and organized tissue formation, with in vitro tests showing no cytotoxicity and enhanced cell migration.

This study found that the developed hydrogel nanoparticles showed potential for enhancing hair growth by effectively delivering and releasing hair growth-promoting herbal extracts into hair follicles.

This study found that in Arabidopsis root hairs, mild chitosan treatment triggered callose deposition and slowed growth, while a higher concentration inhibited growth without callose deposition, indicating different responses based on chitosan concentration.
