This study introduces a modular fiber model to investigate how changes in microstructural properties of wool affect its critical buckling load, highlighting potential uses and areas needing further research in wool fiber biophysics.

This study observed that hair fibers in older women become more curved with age, decreasing hair luster due to their disordered alignment and structural differences between the convex and concave sides.

This study identified a unique concentric double-layered structure in both Japanese and Caucasian SHINAYAKA hair, associated with improved flexibility and elasticity, and developed a succinic acid treatment to enhance these properties.

This article reviews the role of androgens in male pattern hair loss and its emotional impact, but reports no new clinical findings.

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 found that KAP7.1 and KAP8.2 genes were significantly more expressed in secondary hair follicles than primary follicles, suggesting their role in regulating cashmere fiber diameter.

This study found that maternal exposure to artificial food coloring additives altered the expression of CYP1A1, various glutathione S-transferases, and VEGF in rat skin, which could influence skin disease development.

This study observed that fetal hair follicle melanocytes varied in morphology and development stages, with melanosomes undergoing degradation into irregular pigment particles within keratinocytes.

This review discusses the formation of gintonin LPAs in ginseng during processing and reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest potential benefits against degenerative diseases through LPA receptors.

This study identified two high sulfur protein genes, B2E and B2F, in rats, which are expressed in hair cortical cells during anagen and contribute to hair fiber production.

This case report describes a 3-year-old male with X-linked ichthyosis and associated neurologic abnormalities, identifying an unusual cortical development malformation and suggesting that abnormal hair banding may assist diagnosis.

This study found that papain/bisulfite disintegrates human hair cuticles by dissolving the endocuticle, potentially accelerated by ethanol's removal of cell membrane material.

This study observed that increasing the γ-kerateine content in meta-kerateine materials led to reduced elasticity, solidity, and hydrolytic stability, and decreased hepatocyte attachment support.

This study explored the potential of human hair keratin as a filtration material, finding that it may effectively absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutanesulfonate. The researchers reported significant binding affinities through molecular simulations, supporting further investigation into keratin's use for water purification.

This research suggests that both proposed pathways into hair fibers for molecule penetration are valid and complementary, with all fiber structures acting as potential routes for delivering materials.

This study found that SYP123 and VAMP727 are involved in the secretion and transport of inner cell wall components, which is crucial for hardening the root hair shank in Arabidopsis.

This study suggests that adult hair follicle stem cells can survive and potentially differentiate into neuronal cells after being transplanted in a mouse model of traumatic brain injury, indicating promise for TBI therapy.

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 the uptake of molecules by hair is influenced by both hydrophobic and ionic charge interactions, with binding affinity decreasing as pH approaches the solute's dissociation constant.

This review highlights the potential of nanotechnology-based formulations in hair care and treatment, emphasizing how these innovative materials can enhance the stability, efficacy, and safety of active compounds while addressing the limitations of conventional formulations.

This review explores theories on the evolution of hair from synapsid scales and glands, proposing mechanisms supported by comparative studies, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that rice bran ash extract enhanced melanin biosynthesis-related protein expression in a 3D hair follicle-like tissue model and hair follicle organ culture, suggesting potential for future research in melanogenesis.

This review explains the mechanical composition and molecular interactions that determine hair's mechanical properties, without providing any new experimental findings.

Finasteride slows down motherly behavior in first-time pregnant rats.

The book "Diseases of the Hair and Scalp" has outdated information and confusing content, but may still offer some insights.

This study found that a long-term astrocyte culture model can effectively study astrocyte senescence and suggests minoxidil as a potential candidate to regulate brain aging by normalizing dysregulated gene expression in aged astrocytes.

The book "Dermatology" has useful content but some sections lack detail and accuracy; it's recommended for dermatologists to review before buying.

This study provides evidence supporting a regulatory relationship between the transcriptional regulator Hoxc13 and Krtap16 genes, which are crucial for proper hair growth in mice.

This study identified novel compound heterozygous mutations in the DSG4 gene in a Japanese patient with congenital hypotrichosis, suggesting overlap between localized autosomal recessive hypotrichosis and monilethrix.

This study concluded that the curliness of human hair, regardless of ethnicity, originates from the inhomogeneous internal nanostructure due to differences in the distribution of two types of cortices.
