This study suggests that mouse lineage specification during pre-implantation development involves distinct timing and mechanisms for trophectoderm and inner cell mass differentiation, challenging existing models.

This case report describes a patient with a severe pruritic rash and hair loss in both axillary regions, with no fluorescence under a Wood's lamp and hair follicle-centred papules observed through dermoscopy.

This study found a previously unreported ST14 gene mutation in a patient with ichthyosis-hypotrichosis syndrome, highlighting novel skin and hair characteristics and emphasizing the critical role of the Asp482 amino acid in matriptase activation.

This article discusses the establishment and global adoption of standardized terminology for follicular unit excision (FUE) by the ISHRS, which aids effective communication among hair restoration practitioners.

This case study describes a patient with rapidly progressing follicular mycosis fungoides, highlighting its unusual histology and challenges in diagnosing it against cutaneous B-cell lymphoma.

This study developed a mathematical model indicating that the amino acid sequences of intermediate filament proteins, rather than flexibility differences, significantly impact assembly rates.

This case study reports that a heterozygous missense GJA1 mutation, p.Gly138Ser, in a 2-year-old boy with oculodentodigital syndrome primarily resulted in syndactyly, fifth finger hypoplasia, and hypotrichosis, without neurological or craniofacial abnormalities.

This study found that introducing the recombinant rat OTC gene into SPF-ASH mice restored normal hair growth and metabolic function, improving symptoms associated with OTC deficiency.

This study found a direct correlation between the testicular feminization gene and decreased androgen receptor activity, potentially explaining the androgen insensitivity in affected individuals.

Scientists made glow-in-the-dark dots from human hair that can detect iron, prevent counterfeiting, and reveal fingerprints.

This study found that chronic exposure to fadrozole or finasteride during frog development induced intersex individuals, which displayed different gene expression profiles depending on the chemical used.

This study generated a transcriptomic map of human hair follicles, identifying compartment-specific gene expression profiles that can aid in developing targeted therapies for hair follicle disorders.

This study demonstrated that in live rodents, actin filaments adjust their structure to facilitate membrane transfer between cellular compartments with different biophysical properties.

In this study, researchers reported that specific gene polymorphisms in Jiangnan cashmere goats, particularly SNPs in the HOXC13 and WNT4 genes, were significantly associated with key economic traits like birth weight and yearling weight, providing molecular markers for breeding and enhancing economic trait stability.

This study found that the hHa1-t protein variant, caused by a genetic polymorphism in the hHa1 gene, forms functional keratin filaments despite lacking a complete nonhelical tail domain, explaining the absence of a pathological hair phenotype.

This publication presents a library of geometric medicines designed to selectively target pathogenic bacteria and fungi with high precision while minimizing ecological harm, available for free on a non-commercial basis.

This study found that higher levels of AR expression are linked to a decreased risk of severe COVID-19 in females, and identified ACE2, MX1, and TMPRSS2 as important molecular markers for COVID-19 management.

This study found that laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry can effectively reconstruct time-resolved mercury exposure in micrometer segments of a single hair strand from fish-eaters.

In this study, researchers discovered that the MafB gene, which is important for macrophage differentiation, shows high expression in the pancreas and is influenced by sex steroids, with varied expression patterns in hamster tissues and during reproductive phases.

In this study, researchers reported that hardshell capsules using the DiluCap® line of excipients demonstrated varying dissolution profiles under gastrointestinal-simulating conditions, with minoxidil and finasteride showing rapid release and melatonin and naltrexone displaying controlled release, indicating their suitability for different applications in compounding pharmacies.

In this study, researchers found that massively parallel sequencing of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can improve information recovery from forensic samples, with successful full region amplification possible from as few as 2,000 mtDNA copies, albeit with variability in heteroplasmy among hair samples from the same donor.

This case report describes a 12-year-old boy with severe skin scaling due to novel compound heterozygous null truncation mutations in the TGM1 gene, resulting in loss of transglutaminase 1 activity.

This study reported that gels containing methyl cellulose exhibited the highest consistency factor and optimal homogeneity compared to those made with hydroxypropyl cellulose or its combination with pullulan, indicating the significant impact of gelling agents on gel properties.

This study found that 53% of Japanese women have straight hair while 47% have varying degrees of curved hair, with distinct structural differences observed in the internal makeup of curved hair fibers.

This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing human H-ferritin showed mild growth retardation and a temporary hairless phenotype, highlighting H-ferritin's physiological roles.

This study found that among Filipino women, a modified Ferriman-Gallwey score of 7 or above indicates hirsutism and is significantly associated with elevated calculated free testosterone.

This study found that the Chinese herb Ligustrum lucidum may enhance expression of hair growth-related genes, HGF and VEGF, in cultured mouse hair follicles.

This study demonstrated that combining cell conditioning with mild protease digestion enhanced the visualization of versican mRNA in formalin-fixed mouse skin tissue sections compared to using either technique alone.
