This study observed defects in hair cuticle cross-linking in some, but not all, mouse mutants with sparse or structurally unsound hair.

This case report highlights the association of three CX26 gene mutations, particularly the D50N mutation, with keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome and its potential role in scalp squamous cell carcinoma and breast cancer development in a patient.

SPRY1 deficiency in skin cells causes stem cells to move to the skin surface, leading to increased pigmentation.

This study observed distinct differences in hair characteristics between individuals with cardio-facio-cutaneous syndrome and Costello syndrome, highlighting the role of the RAS pathway in these RASopathies and aiding clinical diagnosis.

This case study reports a 36-year-old man with KID syndrome caused by an N14Y GJB2 mutation, expanding the mutation spectrum of this condition in the Chinese population.

This study found that phenyl-imidazole sulfonamide derivatives, particularly ISCK03, inhibited c-kit signaling and promoted depigmentation in various experimental settings, suggesting potential use as skin-whitening agents.

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 article describes the development and validation of a standardized instrument for measuring skin involvement in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, aiming to aid future clinical research and trials.

This review discusses the chemical processes involved in hair styling and straightening and reports no new results; the authors highlight pregnancy safety with hair treatments during pregnancy.

This case report describes a patient with a severe pruritic rash and hair loss in both axillary regions, with no fluorescence under a Wood's lamp and hair follicle-centred papules observed through dermoscopy.

This review explores the advantages and limitations of using zebrafish models to study various skin diseases, but reports no new experimental results.

This study reports the development of a natural hair-coloring system using size-controlled ink particles from cuttlefish ink combined with chitosan, achieving darker and more uniform black coloration on hair than existing plant-based natural colorants, without the need for metallic mordants.

Curly and straight hair differ in how their internal fibers are arranged.

This study developed a mouse model to monitor hair follicle cycling macroscopically through live bioluminescence imaging, enabling detailed analysis of hair cycle and propagation dynamics influenced by environmental factors.

This study analyzed hair styling mousses on the Slovenian market, finding that their formulations primarily rely on polymers, with no banned ingredients according to European cosmetics regulations.

This study found that CLK1 is necessary for epidermal differentiation but does not affect sebocyte differentiation in a telogen skin stem cell line.

This study found that mechanical disruption of the desmosomal cadherin Dsg3 in hair follicle stem cells activates them from quiescence, highlighting its role as a key regulator of stem cell quiescence and epithelial niche integrity.

Certain ingredients can help protect hair color.

This study developed the mTurquoise2-Col4a1 mouse model and used fluorescent tagging of collagen IV to offer new insights into basement membrane dynamics during hair follicle budding, revealing that basement membranes are flexible and stable structures in developing skin tissue.

This study used a novel fluorescent tagging method in mice to observe collagen IV dynamics during hair follicle development, revealing that alterations in basement membrane turnover can influence epithelial progenitor cell behavior and organ morphology by affecting cell proliferation and movement.
