This study explored the decline in cashmere production in Inner Mongolian cashmere goats through RNA-seq analysis, finding that AKT1 expression and related signaling pathways are age-dependent, with peak AKT1 upregulation at 12 months aligning with peak cashmere production.

This study mapped the genome-wide epigenetic landscape in secondary hair follicle stem cells of goats, revealing distinct histone modification signatures associated with cashmere fiber cycling during different stages of hair growth.

In this study, the researchers reported the detailed anatomical structure of horse skin, including the composition and organization of the epidermis, dermis, and associated glands and follicles.

This study observed that processing techniques such as degreasing, bating, and tanning influence mink skin by altering the distribution of fat glands and collagen fibers, potentially impacting hair follicle structure and mink product quality.

This study found that the EDAR 1540T/C genetic variant is significantly associated with hair thickness variation in Japanese populations, enhancing previously observed associations in Southeast Asian groups.

This study conducted in situ tensile loading experiments with atomic force microscopy to observe how conditioning treatments affect the tensile response of virgin, chemically damaged, and mechanically damaged Caucasian hair.

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.

This study found that melatonin exposure promoted hair follicle fiber growth in Cashmere goat cultures, potentially influencing pathways related to the microvascular system and extracellular matrix.

This review discusses the historical development and current challenges in in vitro hair follicle culture, highlighting a need for advanced models using cell lines and tissue engineering, and reports no new results.

This study found that lncRNA-000133 may play a role in secondary hair follicle reconstruction and cashmere fiber growth in goats, potentially through its interaction with the methylation of its regulatory region and dermal papilla cells.

This study found that defective cross-linking in hair cuticles is observable in a minority of mouse hair mutants, suggesting different proteins are involved in cross-linking across cell types.

This article discusses the potential use of hair fibers to noninvasively measure polyamine concentrations as a marker of tumor growth, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that higher levels of DHA from omega-3 fatty acids delayed inflammation resolution and impaired wound healing quality in both transgenic mice and wild-type mice supplemented with DHA.

This study found that melatonin treatment increased epidermal thickness, subcutaneous fat, and dermal-related factors in postmenopausal rats, suggesting benefits for skin structure after menopause.

This study found histopathological evidence of hypertrophy in nerve endings that may explain the cutaneous neurosensory symptoms in some long COVID-19 patients.

In this study, researchers found that negative pressure fractional microneedle radiofrequency significantly improved periorbital wrinkles, hydration, and dermal thickness in patients with periorbital aging, while also increasing orderly collagen and elastic fibers, with minimal adverse effects reported.

This study found that micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) was highly effective for analyzing the cross-sectional geometry of hair fibres, including the medulla in highly curled hair, but less effective than scanning electron microscopy for surface details.

This study identified new geometric and mechanical parameters for curly and kinky/coily hair, which may inform more effective personal care products tailored to these hair types.

In this study, platelet-rich plasma treatments over three months were reported to improve hair growth in individuals with androgenetic alopecia, although objectively measuring its efficacy remains challenging.

This study demonstrated that herbal therapy with oil extract increased triglyceride content in dog hair, suggesting potential benefits on coat quality that require further investigation.

This study assessed patient satisfaction and hair retention in 15 individuals with alopecia treated with Biofibre ® 4.0 artificial hair implants, finding high levels of satisfaction and excellent biocompatibility, with no significant adverse reactions reported after one year.

There's a growing resistance to the antibiotic mupirocin in children's skin infections caused by MRSA in New York.

This study reports that hair from women with breast cancer showed a unique X-ray diffraction feature, potentially offering a non-invasive method for detecting the disease.

This study used phase contrast hard x-ray microscopy to capture detailed images of healthy human hair, revealing distinct structures such as the medulla, cortex, and cuticular layer.

This study highlights the distinct distribution patterns of extracellular matrix components in the scalp skin of male and female androgenetic alopecia patients, with increased elastin staining intensity observed in male cases.

In this pilot study, participants with lymphocytic primary cicatricial alopecia who applied 6% topical gabapentin solution twice daily for 12 weeks experienced significant symptom reduction, though there was no noticeable change in nerve fibre density or neuropeptide expression.

This study utilized the DNP–SANS technique on human hair for the first time and found significant changes in the SANS profile dependent on polarization conditions, providing insights into the structural composition and dynamic properties of keratin and its associated proteins.

This study found that chondroitin sulfate levels were higher than hyaluronic acid in skin and hair follicle samples, with the highest concentration observed in prekeratin of hair follicles and wool fibers.

In this study, hair samples from Mexican women were found to be intermediate in diameter and shape between Asian and Caucasian hair, exhibiting high intra- and inter-individual variability and unexpected levels of tensile damage.

This study found that stage-specific epigenetic changes, particularly involving the gene PDGFC, may affect wool fiber development in Zhongwei goats, potentially serving as a biomarker for fur goat selection.
