This study found that using a dissecting microscope for follicular unit graft preparation in hair transplant surgeries increased hair yield by 17% compared to using magnifying loupes with transillumination.

This review highlights that two-photon excitation microscopy is a valuable tool for visualizing live skin structures and immune responses at high resolution, though its clinical use is hindered by safety and cost issues.

This article reports electron microscope studies on the structure of hair and wool, but it does not present new clinical findings.

Fibroblasts can be turned into melanocytes for potential skin treatments.

Minoxidil promotes hair growth by increasing cell division and DNA synthesis.

This review discusses the development and application of multiphoton microscopy in dermatology, highlighting its advantages and potential future research directions without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that in vivo confocal scanning laser microscopy accurately quantifies neogenic hair follicles in mice, producing results similar to histology while avoiding fixation artifacts.

This review provides guidance on using two-photon microscopy for real-time and long-term visualization of stem cell activity in live mice skin, focusing on its application in researching skin and stem cell biology.

This study proposes an innovative treatment for stretch marks by combining skinbooster and microneedling techniques, which induce tissue remodeling and collagen synthesis, and suggests using confocal microscopy as a valuable tool for monitoring skin changes in aesthetic dermatology.

In this study, hair-follicle-associated pluripotent stem cell implantation improved functional recovery and reduced inflammation in a mouse model of intracerebral hemorrhage.

This study reports that Elvitegravir, a drug currently approved for other uses, shows potential as a neuro- and mitoprotective agent by attenuating mitochondrial damage caused by NMDA receptors in primary mouse cortical neurons.

This review highlights that microscopic analysis of human scalp hair remains crucial in forensic science for crime scene investigations, despite limitations such as subjectivity and potential misidentification, and notes that integrating DNA analysis and digital imaging could enhance accuracy.

In this study, researchers suggest that digital microscopy using visible light could offer a more objective approach to diagnosing hirsutism by quantifying terminal hair, with future research needed to assess its usefulness in women with the condition.

This study utilized polarized light microscopy to examine hair shafts in ten children with rare genetic disorders, such as Netherton syndrome and ectodermal dysplasia, providing valuable diagnostic insights into hair thickness, composition, and structural irregularities associated with these conditions.

This study found that microfibrils play a crucial role in shaping permanent waves by thioglycolic acid, and treating damaged hair with hydrolyzed keratin improved both waving efficiency and hair damage.

This review discusses the potential link between direct oral anticoagulants and hair loss, suggesting DOACs may not be a suitable alternative for patients with alopecia from traditional anticoagulants; however, no clinical results are reported.

This study observed that direct hair transplantation, as a modification of follicular unit extraction, was effective in improving baldness in the majority of treated male patients.

This study found that direct immunofluorescence of hair is a simple and non-invasive alternative for monitoring pemphigus vulgaris, matching skin biopsy results in the cases observed.

This case report describes how a 23-year-old woman experienced eyebrow thinning and hair loss linked to cosmetic use, with diagnostic tests confirming follicular damage. Discontinuing the product led to eyebrow regrowth, highlighting potential risks from cosmetics and the value of non-invasive diagnostics for evaluation.

This study investigated the tensile response and morphological changes of different ethnic hair types using AFM, showing variations between virgin, chemically damaged, and conditioner-treated Caucasian hair under different conditions.

This review summarizes the characteristics of the peri-malignant melanoma stroma, indicating its potential role in early dermal metastatic migration and increased metastasis risk.

This study found that AtCEPs in Arabidopsis thaliana play a role in controlling root hair growth by processing EXT proteins, with NAC1 acting to regulate their expression and influence elongation.

This study used air wedge interferometry to measure the thickness of human scalp hair from three individuals, finding average thicknesses of 66.482 µm, 59.355 µm, and 59.927 µm respectively, within the typical range for adults.

In this study, a 3-year-old Japanese child with autosomal recessive woolly hair was found to have a distinctive irregular and rough cuticle on the hair shaft, along with a homozygous pathogenic LIPH variant, suggesting a critical role for genetic analysis in understanding rare hair conditions.

This study found that Prss53-mutated rabbits exhibited curved hair and skeletal dyskinesia, suggesting a link between Prss53 loss and these traits, potentially involving disrupted calcium metabolism.

This study found that combining CelluTome system and RCM is a safe and effective protocol for evaluating wound healing responses in patients with epidermolysis bullosa.

This study documented that dermatophytosis was highly prevalent in Basra's cats, particularly affecting males and cats under nine months, with lesions most frequent on ears, face, and abdomen.

This study found that aging in Korean individuals is associated with changes in hair diameter and surface structure, as observed through atomic force microscopy.

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.

In this study, dogs with atopic dermatitis showed significant improvements in macroscopic skin lesions, such as reduced pruritus and hair regrowth, after receiving coconut oil massages every three days for 33 days.
