This study discusses the proteomic profile associated with hair damage but does not report new experimental findings.

This study found that β-catenin is essential for hair follicle stem cell proliferation and may regulate this process through the PI3K/Akt pathway, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target.

This study developed a reliable RP-HPLC-DAD method, finding that amino acid concentrations in bleached hair decrease with higher hydrogen peroxide levels, notably affecting cystine.

This study suggests that Artemis, particularly phosphorylated at serine 516, may have roles in hair follicle growth by influencing differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycling.

This discussion concluded that many herbal home remedies are effective for treating alopecia and other hair conditions without causing adverse reactions, as opposed to allopathic medicines that often have undesirable side effects.

This study found that transcriptome profiling of cashmere goat skin revealed key genes and pathways involved in hair follicle initiation, differentiation, and maturation, which are critical for improving fleece production.

This article reviews the molecular mechanisms involved in androgenetic alopecia and the androgen's paradoxical role in hair growth, but reports no new experimental findings.

This article discusses the role of human hair follicles in neuroendocrinology and suggests potential new therapeutic targets by examining how neuromediators influence hair growth, pigmentation, and stem cell biology in organ cultures.

This study found that permanent waving treatment partially disrupts the α-helical structure in human hair microfibrils, primarily during the initial reduction phase, rather than just affecting disulphide bonds.

The study found that bioengineered hair follicles work when using cells from the same species but have issues when combining human and mouse cells.

This study found that α3β1-integrin is crucial for maintaining normal hair follicle morphology in mice, as its deficiency leads to severe abnormalities despite not affecting interfollicular epidermal differentiation.

This study found that reducing BMP signaling in mouse nipple epithelia, achieved through Noggin overexpression, can convert them into hairy skin with pilosebaceous units.

This study suggests that the action of minoxidil in stimulating hair growth likely occurs at the follicular dermal papilla, though it does not induce new follicle formation.

This study found that human scalp hair follicles can internally operate a Cori cycle, synthesize glycogen in the presence of lactate, and modulate growth through glycogen phosphorylase activity.

In this study, inactivating the TAF4 subunit of transcription factor TFIID in mouse epidermis disrupted gene expression linked to skin and hair function, and increased tumor risk.

This study reported that recombinant human hair keratins, K37 and K81, showed higher purity and enhanced fibrin clot formation compared to traditional extracts, reducing bleeding time and blood loss in rat injury models.

This review discusses various aspects of hair follicle biology and highlights unresolved questions and potential new research avenues, but presents no new experimental findings.

This review explores potential new roles for Merkel cells, including involvement in magnetoreception, fingerprint formation, and transmitting environmental information, but reports no experimental results.

This article explores how various nutrients and metabolic processes impact wool and hair follicle function in animals but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that a newly identified mutation in the hairless gene in mice led to decreased Hr mRNA levels and changes in gene expression related to hair follicle development.

This study found that terbinafine prevented the invasion of keratin by Trichophyton mentagrophytes in experimental models replicating human dermatomycoses.

This study developed a new proteomic method to identify and assess ancient hair proteins using only small amounts of sample, providing insights into hair protein alteration processes over time.

This study found that overexpression of R-spondin 3 in a mice model impaired hair morphogenesis and regeneration by reducing hair matrix progenitor cell proliferation, thus disrupting the Wnt pathway's regulation of stem cells.

This study reported that a Megsin-Cre transgene enables genetic manipulation primarily in skin, forestomach, and esophagus tissues, offering a new tool for studying development and diseases in these areas.

This study observed that treating human hair with NaOH led to partially removed cuticles, resulting in better fiber cohesion and mechanical properties similar to wool, unlike bleach or formic acid treatments, which weakened the fibers.

This study outlines how combined ultrasonic and infrared hair treatments may enhance hair restoration and performance by breaking down keratin disulfide bonds for better treatment access and sealing cuticle scales to preserve improvements, with potential applications in salon and home settings.

This study reported that albino Wistar rats exposed to chemical hair straighteners showed significant hair fiber damage and scalp skin deterioration, which worsened with repeated and prolonged application, highlighting the cytotoxic potential of these products and potential systemic risks.

In this study, researchers developed a simplified and reliable method to prepare human hair shaft samples, achieving over 75% protein extraction efficiency and improved keratin sequence coverage, with the approach showing high reproducibility across different labs and operators.

This study analyzed the swelling behavior of human hair during permanent waving treatment, finding that both the microstructure and macrostructure of intermediate filaments swell simultaneously at the initial stage, and while partially destructed by reduction, they are considerably restored through oxidation.

This study developed a new human in vitro hair model that replicates in vivo hair characteristics and may be suitable for high throughput screening of hair growth treatments.
