This study suggests that D2O increases hair length in nude mice by extending the hair cycle duration, particularly the hair-existing phase, which is associated with increased mast cell density.

This study reported that a novel vasodilator drug called TOP-M119, when delivered using a specially designed dissolving microneedle system, showed enhanced targeting of hair follicles and effectiveness in treating alopecia, demonstrated through in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo studies involving mouse skin.

This study identified a new Demodex species causing demodicosis in a zoo koala, successfully treated with daily oral ivermectin.

In this study, researchers explored the use of a 2-deoxy-D-ribose sodium alginate hydrogel on mice with androgenic alopecia and found it resulted in similar hair regrowth to minoxidil, highlighting increased hair follicle density and angiogenesis.

This case report describes two instances of naevoid bundle hair on the scalp, where multiple hairs group from separate follicles into a single sheath and show abnormal reactivity to keratin antibodies.

This study found that Datura metel leaf and flower extracts could improve hair growth, with leaf extracts prompting quicker growth and mixed extracts enhancing overall regrowth effectiveness in animal models.

This article discusses dermatoscopy's role in identifying alopecia areata, highlighting that exclamation mark hairs are a strong indicator of the condition, but reports no new clinical data.

In this animal study, a herbal preparation demonstrated moderate anti-inflammatory and immunomodulating properties, suggesting its potential usefulness for preventing and treating alopecia.

This research identified a genetic mutation in Brachypodium distachyon that initially allows root hair initiation but fails to elongate them, while also affecting root growth and nitrate sensitivity; the mutation is linked to a previously uncharacterized cyclin-dependent kinase-like gene.

This study found that a 2-deoxy-D-ribose gel stimulated hair follicle growth in mice with androgenic alopecia, showing effects similar to minoxidil without additional benefits from combining the two treatments.

Tufted folliculitis is common in patients with folliculitis decalvans.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy can identify four specific hair morphology patterns in alopecia areata patients, offering a less invasive diagnostic option compared to punch biopsy.

This case study reports on an 11-year-old boy with woolly hair nevus, featuring twisted hair shafts and an abnormal hair cuticle, alongside epidermal nevi on his face and back.

In this study, researchers found that flavonoid glycosides extracted from Dicerocaryum senecioides leaves significantly promoted hair growth in BalB/c mice, with the shortest hair growth completion time of 19 days compared to the control's 29 days, and dose-dependent results.

This study suggests that analyzing microscopic hair morphology, particularly loss of typical clubbing and proximal tapering, may help predict the clinical course of alopecia areata.

This study provides detailed macro and microscopical observations of Tridax procumbens Linn. leaf, which could aid in its identification.

This study found that the Padina arborescens extract and its component MOGG may prevent hair loss by inhibiting 5α-reductase activity, promoting cell proliferation, opening the KATP channel, and increasing PGE2 production in laboratory settings.

This study found that the absence of Sostdc1 in mice alters mammary gland and hair follicle development, particularly by increasing vibrissae numbers and causing unusual nipple-like structures.

This article discusses diffuse alopecia areata, highlighting its autoimmune characteristics, more intense inflammation, and challenges in diagnosis, but presents no new clinical findings.

This case report presents a patient with woolly hair and associated symptoms, including keratosis pilaris, nail dystrophy, increased interdental spaces, and recurrent bullous impetigo, observing a combination not previously reported.

This study found that a significant portion of alopecia areata patients achieved at least partial hair regrowth with diphenylcyclopropenon therapy, which was more effective in certain subtypes and disease durations.

This study found that deleting the miRNA processing enzymes Drosha and Dicer from mouse skin epithelial cells disrupted normal hair follicle development and maintenance, leading to follicular degradation and stem cell loss during the growth phase.

This study found that adding sheep wool to soil can increase water retention and delay drought stress in red clover, although further research is needed to confirm these effects under field conditions.

This study reported that 39.7% of Amargosa voles had mite-associated lesions, which may severely impact their health and fitness.

This study reported that dithranol treatment up to 3% concentration led to hair regrowth in alopecia areata patients who had previously failed ultra-potent steroids, with regrowth observed across all severity levels.

In this study, researchers developed a novel TA-encapsulated microneedle applicator that successfully promoted hair growth and reduced inflammation in a C3H/HeJ mouse model of alopecia areata, potentially offering an improved alternative to existing treatments.

This study found that overexpression of a mutated ornithine decarboxylase transgene in mice led to complete hair loss, which could be prevented or reversed with an ODC inhibitor.
