This study found that brindled mottled mice, a model of Kinky hair syndrome, exhibited abnormal development of catecholamine neurons, with increased TH-immunoreactive neurons and altered neurochemical profiles compared to controls.

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the applications of electrospun nanofibers in non-invasive medical fields, highlighting their potential for health monitoring, personal protection, thermal regulation, and wound care, and discusses the challenges and future development paths for this technology.

This research observed that a silver nanoparticle-loaded polydopamine/polyethyleneimine-coated bacterial cellulose dressing effectively inhibited S. aureus infections, reduced inflammation, and promoted wound healing compared with untreated cellulose, demonstrating its potential for treating infected wounds.

This study suggests that some keratin-associated proteins with antecedents found in non-haired animals may have roles beyond hair characteristics, possibly contributing to the evolution of hair follicles.

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

This study identified potential ceRNA regulatory networks in cashmere goat hair follicle cycling, expanding understanding of lncRNA and miRNA biology and annotation of the goat genome.

This review discusses the effects of IGF-1 on hair follicle cell proliferation and differentiation, highlighting its roles in paracrine signaling, apoptosis prevention, and hair growth, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that certain FZD3 gene variants were significantly associated with wool traits in Chinese Merino sheep, suggesting potential as genetic markers for breeding.

This case report highlights a rare occurrence of squamous cell carcinoma developing at the site of synthetic hair implantation many years later, emphasizing the need for vigilance when examining chronic scalp lesions in patients with such procedures.

This study found that melatonin exposure promoted growth in Cashmere goat hair follicles in vitro and suggested that lncRNAs play a key role in regulating this process, particularly through pathways involving the microvascular system and extracellular matrix.

This article reviews the role of vasoactive intestinal peptide in maintaining immune privilege in hair follicles and does not report new findings; the authors propose it as essential for immune homeostasis in alopecia areata.

The letter argues that blaming synthetic hair implants for scalp cancer based on one report is biased and possibly coincidental.

In this study, researchers identified novel long non-coding RNAs related to cashmere fineness in goats, highlighting a potential regulatory network involving lncRNA XLOC_008679 and its target gene KRT35.

This review explores the biology of wool follicles and suggests their potential use as research models in modern biology, but it reports no new findings.

This review discusses the potential of protein-based cosmetics, including keratin-based particles and fusion proteins, to improve hair properties such as strength and shape, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study explored the use of multiphoton microscopy to monitor changes in tumors and surrounding tissues in breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy, finding it may effectively detect treatment response at cellular levels without using exogenous contrast agents.

This study found that multiphoton microscopy imaging allows for detailed observation and quantitative analysis of collagen alterations in the progression of endometrial cancer, potentially offering a faster, more accurate method for early diagnosis compared to current protocols.

This review summarizes various nutritional approaches and supplements, such as the Mediterranean and ketogenic diets and probiotics, as potential strategies to improve polycystic ovary syndrome symptoms, reporting no new clinical results.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.

This study observed phenotypic diversity in hair loss among Japanese individuals homozygous for the LIPH c.736T>A mutation and suggests that differences in hair thickness may contribute to varying severities.

This study observed that POMP is strongly expressed in the root sheath hair follicles of Liaoning Cashmere goats and its expression can be regulated by certain factors, which may influence cashmere growth.

This study found that injecting melatonin in female goats did not significantly affect follicle characteristics but did improve cashmere yield, potentially by enhancing secondary follicle growth and extending the cashmere growth period.

This case report describes a young patient with a unique combination of dysmorphism, bullous eruption, skin and muscle atrophy, and hyperpigmentation that doesn't fit existing nosological categories.

The researchers reported that using exosomes from hair follicle stem cells with acellular nerve allografts helped bridge facial nerve defects in rats and may match the effectiveness of autograft therapy.

This study found that combining adult germinative epidermal cells with non-inductive dermal cells can stimulate hair follicle neogenesis, effectively altering the cells' status to enhance induction.

This study reviewed literature on using vegetable oils to prevent skin aging, highlighting their antioxidant properties and their role in combating free radicals, which leads to extrinsic aging, while also noting Brazil's important contribution to this field with its rich natural resources.

This study found that implanting isolated adult rat dermal papillae into ear cuts led to the emergence of unusually large vibrissa-type hair follicles, demonstrating their capacity to induce specific hair fiber characteristics.

This study found that temperature significantly affects the mechanical properties of rabbit hair fibers, with increased tensile strain and decreased breaking strength in humid conditions.

This study introduces a modular fiber model to investigate how changes in microstructural properties of wool affect its critical buckling load, highlighting potential uses and areas needing further research in wool fiber biophysics.

Merino wool fibers change shape with moisture, while human hair shape stays the same.
