This study discovered previously unknown structures in human hair shafts that may stabilize hair structurally and physicochemically.

This report describes two children with congenital hypotrichosis and found their short hair is due to a shortened anagen phase, with the condition resolving spontaneously during puberty.

This study provided detailed anatomical, physico-chemical, and chromatographic analyses to differentiate Dracaena trifasciata from potential adulterants in traditional medicine.

This review discusses recent advances in understanding the cellular, molecular, and genetic factors contributing to lupus erythematosus and reports no new experimental findings.

This study reported that albino Wistar rats exposed to chemical hair straighteners showed significant hair fiber damage and scalp skin deterioration, which worsened with repeated and prolonged application, highlighting the cytotoxic potential of these products and potential systemic risks.

This study investigated the mechanical response of the human hair cuticle to strain and found that cuticular deformation directly corresponded with fiber elongation, revealing significant molecular-level changes in disulfide crosslinks but maintained structural stability, highlighting the role of the cuticle in stress resistance.

This study investigated the hair of German shepherd dogs, revealing variations in color, shape, and band patterns across different body regions, while all hair types shared similar anatomical structures such as continuous, vacuolated medullas and cuticular scales with smooth or rippled margins.

This article discusses various aspects of hair and scalp health, ancient philosophical perspectives on hair, and causes of hair disorders in children, without reporting new clinical results.

This report describes a 6-year-old girl with Turner syndrome and coexisting psoriasis, alopecia areata, and trachyonychia, suggesting a potential link between these conditions.

This study found that hair with lower levels of keratin associated proteins reduced the foreign body response in mouse subcutaneous implant tests compared to hair with higher keratin levels.

Mammalian hair scales change from smooth to wavy due to friction.

This study examined the age-related changes in the dermal structure of goat skin, providing baseline data on its histomorphology, histochemistry, and histoenzymology.

This article reviews pediatric hair growth issues, common causes of hair loss in children, and approaches to diagnosis, but presents no new clinical findings.

This article discusses the complex biological functions and social significance of hair follicles and reports no new research findings, emphasizing their role in health, disease, and a substantial beauty industry.

Hair analysis can offer clues about a person, but individual differences limit making precise identifications.

This study found that Merkel cell clusters require Frizzled6 signaling for their polarity information, while other hair follicle-associated structures align their orientation based on the hair follicle itself.

This study found that in semi-coarse wool sheep of the Ukrainian Carpathian Mountain breed, changes in microflora and grease composition are linked to increased felting in wool, due to wetter, more alkaline fleece conditions that promote bacterial and mold growth and alter fatty acid balances.

This Ph.D. project aims to evaluate the self-assembling potential of hair keratin extracts and study the cellular response to both crude and purified keratins, highlighting their potential applications from biomedical to water remediation.

This review discusses the genetic factors involved in hair follicle morphogenesis and cycling and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the role of genes in hereditary hair diseases.

This study reports that structural abnormalities in the inner root sheath of hair follicles may cause the hair shaft to be loosely attached in patients with loose anagen hair syndrome.

This article reviews hair growth and loss in children and offers diagnostic approaches, reporting no new results.

Genetic mutations cause various hair diseases, and whole genome sequencing may reveal more about these conditions.

This review discusses the various common, rare, and unusual skin manifestations of lupus erythematosus and highlights the importance of accurate diagnosis, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that keratose, derived from human hair, integrated well in mouse tissue and remodeled with collagen, suggesting potential as a non-toxic biomaterial for regenerative applications.

This study reported that 4D-printed, aliphatic polycarbonate-based scaffolds supported adipose tissue engineering by allowing adipocyte infiltration and neovascularization in vivo, indicating potential for effective adipose tissue repair.

This study found that mice with a mutant CDP/Cux protein lacking the homeodomain showed severely impaired growth, high postnatal mortality, and reduced fertility, highlighting CDP/Cux's role in developmental regulation.

This review discusses the categorization of hair loss and increased hair density disorders related to systemic diseases and reports no clinical results, emphasizing the potential diagnostic value of history, physical examination, and histopathologic data.

This review presents updated tables of mouse mutants with hair growth abnormalities to aid in understanding the molecular mechanisms of human hair disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

Finasteride increases hair density in female androgenetic alopecia, but individual results may vary.
