This study challenges the idea that tarantulas produce silk from their feet to steady themselves during falls, suggesting instead that the hairs on their feet are chemosensors secreting lymph, not silk.

This study demonstrated that a keratin gel promotes nerve regeneration across critical defects in rabbit models, showing improved nerve conduction and muscle action potential compared to control treatments.

This review discusses the development and types of hair and nails as skin appendages and reports no new research findings.

This study reported detailed three-dimensional ultrastructural observations of human hair and hair follicles using a modified preparation method, including morphological differences in hair bulb cell layers and surface projections on root sheath cells.

Hair grows from living roots, is made of dead keratin, and goes through growth, rest, and shedding stages.

This review discusses the role of stem cell progeny as integral components of stem cell niches, offering feedback that may influence different stem cell systems' microenvironments, but it presents no new research findings.

This article discusses the composition and function of the dermal papilla in hair follicles, focusing on its role in hair shaft generation and suggesting that cell loss in this area may contribute to hair loss.

This article discusses the various roles of steroids in vertebrate organ systems and notes several glucocorticoids that were among the Top 200 Drugs by sales in the 2010s, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study reports that hair damage from bleaching is associated with the oxidative cleavage of fatty acid thioester bonds, detectable by measuring the decrease in mass spectrometry peak at m / z 76.

This letter reports on the impact wigs may have on the perceived quality of life in patients with androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that L-cystine-modified rabbit hair fibers had improved dye adsorption and spinnability, due to changes in secondary structure and surface characteristics.

This study suggests that beard dermal papilla cells may produce androgen-dependent growth factors that stimulate keratinocyte proliferation, while frontal scalp cells can have an inhibitory effect mediated by TGF-β1.

The document reviews various hair and nail disorders, their causes, and treatments, emphasizing the need for proper diagnosis and the link between nail changes and systemic diseases.

This case presentation describes an adult with tinea capitis and related symptoms who was found to have a Trichophyton gypseum infection.

This review explores traditional Ayurvedic methods in Bhela Samhita for assessing health through physical parameters, and calls for further research to validate these practices.
