This study found that medullary cell content in mammal hair evolves from an amorphous form to a biphasic phase, with human and anthropoid hair containing both macrofibrils and microfibrils.

The researchers in this study described the use of trichoscopy to assist in diagnosing aplasia cutis congenita of the scalp in a dark-skinned newborn, noting that trichoscopic findings can differ from those seen in light-skinned patients, yet remain a valuable diagnostic tool.

In this case report, a 24-year-old male with a translucent nodule in the left nasolabial fold was diagnosed with a solitary fibrofolliculoma with cystic changes upon histopathology, emphasizing the rarity and potential for misdiagnosis of these benign cutaneous tumors.

This study observed that calcifying epithelioma of Malherbe is composed of tumor cells that differentiate into both hair cortex and outer root sheath, supporting its hair follicle origin.

In this case study, researchers observed reversible scalp hair loss associated with centrifugal lipodystrophy, potentially linked to altered leptin expression in inflamed adipose tissue.

Scalp hair follicle cells help protect and heal skin in certain skin conditions.

This review provides an overview of the ethnomedicinal uses, chemical composition, and pharmacological profile of Eclipta alba Hassk and presents no new clinical findings.

This report describes an unusual case of proliferating trichilemmal cyst with trichoepitheliomatous change in a young woman, differing from its typical presentation in elderly women.

This report highlights the diagnosis of a giant congenital blue nevus with secondary cutis verticis gyrata in a 20-year-old Asian male, underscoring the need for clinicopathologic correlation due to overlapping features with cerebriform intradermal nevi.

This report describes a rare case of recurrent hair growth in the floor of the mouth, suggesting heterotopia as the possible cause in an adult male.

This report identifies a novel splice-site variant in the LAMB3 gene linked to junctional epidermolysis bullosa, emphasizing the need for gene sequencing in diagnosing the disease.

This case report describes an atypical presentation of lichen planopilaris affecting only facial vellus hair, without scalp involvement, in a 46-year-old man.

This article discusses the structure and protective function of pangolin scales, emphasizing their composition of α-keratins and β-keratins, and highlights evolutionary keratin diversification in tetrapods; it reports no new empirical findings.

This case report describes an ossifying pilomatrixoma found in a 15-year-old girl, confirmed via histopathological examination after imaging indicated a subcutaneous mass on her cheek.

This article describes the extraction and characterization method for wedelolactone from Eclipta alba but presents no new clinical results.

Skin-associated cartilage cells can influence hair growth by altering specific signaling pathways.

This study found that the HoxC gene cluster plays a critical role in the development of ectodermal organs, including hair and nails, with mammalian-specific enhancers increasing transcription levels during development.

This case report describes three Iranian men with gradual reddish-brown pigmentation on their cheeks and preauricular areas since childhood, unresponsive to sunblocks and topical steroids.

This study found that lead treatment enhances the imaging of organized hair lipid structures, revealing their orientation and possible composition as lead and calcium soaps, with potential applications in various fields.

This case report describes a rare presentation of nevus comedonicus following the lines of Blaschko, treated with oral isotretinoin and other therapeutic measures, resulting in a reduction of episodic painful cystic lesions.

This study observed that cultured dermal papilla cells showed distinct functional properties from dermal fibroblasts, including lower proliferation rates, higher adhesion to collagen type IV, and different cell-matrix interactions.

This article reports that while surgical excision is often the best treatment for SCC, intralesional cidofovir also showed success without systemic toxicity in the case discussed.

This case series highlights that nail clipping can aid in early detection and surgical planning of onychomatrical tumors by distinguishing between benign and potentially malignant growths based on the cavities' average dimensions.

This report describes a 23-year-old male with Clouston’s syndrome, characterized by nail abnormalities, palmoplantar skin thickening, anodontia, and androgenic alopecia, highlighting the need for supportive management due to the lack of a definitive treatment.

This case report describes a rare concurrence of Morbihan disease with eyelid edema and extrafacial lupus miliaris disseminatus faciei in a patient, noting improvement of truncal lesions with roxithromycin and resolution of eyelid edema following surgical treatment.

This study introduced Scd3-Cre mice, which enabled sebocyte-specific manipulation, revealing that sebaceous lipid depletion impaired water repulsion, thermoregulation, and the ocular surface, resembling Meibomian gland dysfunction.

This study suggests that the MAEG protein may facilitate epithelial–mesenchymal interactions during hair follicle development by binding to RGD-binding integrins like α8β1.

This article reviews treatments focused on stimulating collagen synthesis and improving skin appearance through methods like mechanical dermabrasion and laser surgery, but it reports no new clinical results.
