This study suggests that extracting hair proteins at relatively high temperatures may enhance their hemostatic properties by altering their secondary structure and increasing the precipitation of soluble fibrinogen.

This study found that wire brush hair snares collected the most hair from Eurasian Lynx in controlled enclosures, suggesting potential for sampling genetic material from similar felid species.

This study found that hair proteomics may serve as a promising, non-invasive biomarker source for stress-associated psychopathology, showing high accuracy in distinguishing patients with non-suicidal self-injury disorder from healthy controls.

This study found that chemical treatments such as hair bleach and UV radiation significantly reduced the amount of 18-methyleicosanoic acid on the outer surface of human hair.

This study found that PIXE microanalysis effectively detected and quantified trace element changes in hair shafts, revealing a marked decrease in copper after treatment for green hair syndrome.

This study identified two types of calcium in human scalp hair, with one type highly variable between individuals, potentially impacting the analysis of environmental and medical factors related to hair calcium.

This study found that clippers are the safest and most efficient tool for collecting hair samples from companion dogs, with no impact on cortisol concentration compared to scissors.

This study utilized a fluorescence probe to evaluate cysteine formation on hair fibers, finding that optimal fluorescence emission occurred at pH 4.5.

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 found that while measuring zinc in hair did not allow calculation of individual hair growth rates, it effectively characterized zinc, lead, and mercury concentrations and improved methods for analyzing these exposures using LA-ICP-MS.

This study found that repeatedly collecting hair follicles from individuals with fragile X syndrome is feasible for measuring FMR1 and FMRP levels in both home and office settings.

This study found that DNA-damaged hair follicle stem cells in mouse models do not show typical senescent markers but are dynamically expelled to maintain tissue health and prevent hair loss.

This study found that dermoscopy combined with calcium fluorescent white staining effectively aided in the early diagnosis and treatment evaluation of tinea capitis by highlighting specific hair changes and fluorescent patterns associated with different dermatophyte infections in a sample of 20 patients.

Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) is a useful tool for studying how drugs interact with skin and diagnosing skin disorders, despite some limitations.

This study describes a staining technique that differentiates medullary from cortical keratin in sheep and goat hair using Ziehl-Neelsen's carbol-fuchsin in skin biopsy sections.

This study describes a new method using high-resolution mass spectrometry for analyzing multiple steroids in human scalp hair, with newborn hair showing the highest steroid concentrations among examined age groups.

This microscopy study examined the non-keratinous regions of human hair fibers, revealing detailed morphology that could help understand how external influences affect hair structure.

This study found that clinical examination is effective for diagnosing certain non-scarring hair loss types in women, although histopathologic studies are necessary for exact diagnoses, and laboratory tests did not correlate well with clinical findings.

Irwin Freedberg greatly advanced dermatology research and mentored many future scientists.

This study found that cosmetic hair treatments like bleaching and dyeing significantly reduced drug concentrations in hair samples, with decreases ranging from 30% to over 60% depending on the treatment and hair damage level.

This article reviews various methods and introduces new imaging technologies to assess the effects of hair shaping treatments on hair chemistry and structural integrity, without reporting clinical results.

This study reported that dermoscopy can aid in distinguishing secondary syphilis from other skin conditions by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, though there are no standardized criteria; further research is needed to confirm these findings.

This study found that, compared to oxidative treatments, reductive perm-waving more severely impacts the intermediate filaments in European human hair, while both treatments alter denaturation kinetics in a first-order manner.

This review discusses the use of hair analysis for examining stress and reproduction hormone levels in wildlife and highlights the need for more comprehensive physiological validations across species.

This review examines the process of cornification as a mode of programmed cell death and outlines how keratinocytes activate anti-cell death mechanisms to maintain epidermal homeostasis, but reports no new results.

This review discusses case reports of autoimmune diseases following vaccination and the challenges of establishing a clear epidemiological connection, urging further investigation into vaccine-induced autoimmunity.

This commentary discusses the feasibility and challenges of uterine transplantation for transgender women, emphasizing anatomical, hormonal, and ethical considerations without reporting new clinical results.

In this study, researchers developed an LC-MS/MS method to accurately quantify cortisone and cortisol levels in human scalp hair, finding that concentrations decrease predictably along the hair shaft, which could assist in identifying abnormal glucocorticoid exposure.
