This study found that for straight hair, friction mainly influences fragment formation during combing, suggesting no direct connection to tensile fatigue failure, while with textured hair, combing performance may be more complex.

This study reports disastrous outcomes from artificial hair fiber implants, with some patients still needing repair to remove retained fiber fragments; hair-bearing punch grafts may help some patients.

This study found that anti-keratin antibody from immunized cow milk increases the resistance of damaged hair to stretching and inhibits fracture from excessive brushing.

This study suggests that in hidradenitis suppurativa, MMP-induced matrix alterations may contribute to inflammation by releasing active peptides and inflammatory factors in the extracellular matrix.

In this case report, an 11-year-old girl was diagnosed with lipedematous scalp, a condition typically observed in adult women, based on clinical features and histopathological findings.

In this study, the authors found that a botanical extract with anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties stabilized hair loss and preserved natural hair pigmentation and strength over six months.

This study found that fiber implantation for pattern baldness frequently led to complications, including infection and scarring, and poses carcinogenesis risks, leading authorities to discourage its use.

This case report highlights the importance of considering artefacts like artificial hair fibers during trichoscopy, as they can interfere with the accurate diagnosis of hair conditions.

This study found that straight crimp mutant wool differs from crimpy wool in the layout of cortical cells and the relative proportions of keratin and keratin-associated proteins.

This study found that UV radiation exposure increased protein elution and altered protein characteristics in hair fibers, suggesting environmental factors impact hair shaft proteins.

This study observed that treating hair follicles with BM15766 and 7DHC led to structural damage, disrupted cellular organization, reduced expression of key genes and proteins, and increased apoptosis, in contrast to controls, indicating detrimental effects on hair follicle integrity.

This study describes a new method for extracting red mordant dyes from wool fibers using ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid and N,N-dimethyl formamide, preserving the fibers for further examination.

This study introduced a new method for extracting red mordant dyes from wool fibers that preserved the fibers for further analysis and allowed for spectrophotometric examination of the dyes' absorption curves.

This study found that cultured dental papilla cells from various mammals can induce hair follicle regeneration and influence tissue formation, with outcomes dependent on donor age, tooth type, and host environment.

This study found that polymorphisms in the KAP8.2 gene in Chinese Inner Mongolia cashmere goats are associated with variations in cashmere fibre diameter, suggesting its potential as a molecular marker for this trait.

In this study, experimentally induced weight loss in merino sheep led to a decrease in wool fiber diameter and increased expression of certain high sulfur and glycine-tyrosine proteins, potentially impacting wool quality and industry preferences.

In these studies, researchers found that Peruvian camelids reach mature skin follicle development early, with specific cuticular characteristics useful for distinguishing fleece types, while Bolivian llamas have a mature follicle apparatus present at birth.

This study presents a DNA-analytical method that can reliably identify and differentiate cashmere, fine wool, yak, and camel hair fibers in both untreated and processed samples.

In this study, microarray and proteomic analyses indicated that genes involved in immune response, receptor binding, and growth factor activity might influence wool fibre diameter in sheep.

This study found that examining hair morphology provides deeper insights than classification, suggesting a potential population stratification artefact between hair curvature and cross-sectional shapes in the examined admixed African-European sample.

This study introduced a new high-throughput method for analyzing scalp hair morphology and found that quantifying hair form provides more accurate information than traditional classification based on racial categories, challenging the belief that cross-sectional morphology predicts hair curvature.

This study observed that adults with thinning hair who ingested a patented botanical-based supplement experienced significant increases in hair shaft diameter and reductions in hair breakage over 180 days, suggesting improved hair strength and length across various demographic groups.

A new method helps understand hair shine and various products improve hair care.

This study suggests that ethylene and lignoceric acid (C24:0) may promote cotton fiber and Arabidopsis root hair growth by activating the pectin biosynthesis network.

This study reports that hair fibers degrade most in acidic sandy clay, while silicone oil treatment is effective for conserving various hair types and artifacts.

In this study, variation in the KRTAP15-1 gene in goats was linked to changes in cashmere fibre diameter, with specific variants showing dominant or recessive effects.

Minoxidil treatment in mice preserved the integrity of elastic lamellae and improved arterial biomechanical properties, especially in females, suggesting it could be an anti-arterial aging agent potentially suitable for female-targeted therapies.

This study found that prevascularizing dermal matrices with adipose tissue-derived microvascular fragments improved vascularization and allowed earlier successful skin grafting in a bradythrophic wound model.

This review discusses the use and sustainability challenges of luxury animal hair fibers in the fashion industry and reports no new research findings.

This study found that electrospun short fibrous sponges effectively mimic the 3D extracellular matrix, promoting tissue regeneration, angiogenesis, and wound healing in diabetic rats better than 2D fiber membranes.
