This study, using a reporter mouse line, characterized diverse subtypes of dopaminergic neurons in the enteric nervous system, identifying unique subtypes with potential roles in gut function and disease.

This study developed finite element models to examine skin's biomechanical properties, finding that structural heterogeneities like Rete ridges and hair follicles create distinct stress and strain patterns that may influence mechanosensation and skin integrity.

In this study, researchers found that the shape of polygonal domains, such as squares and triangles, significantly impacts Turing pattern formation, with domain geometry affecting the stability and type of bifurcations observed in simulations.

This study reports that the β-catenin inhibitor tegatrabetan reduced hair growth and hair follicle numbers in mice, suggesting its potential as a model for developing new hair growth materials.

The trichometer accurately measures hair growth and is easy to use.

This study suggests that Merkel cell polyomavirus T antigen-positive cells resembling Merkel cell carcinoma may originate from epithelial cells in human hair follicles, potentially informing future transgenic mouse models for this cancer.

This study investigated the solubility of minoxidil in various solvent mixtures and applied multiple models to understand solute-solvent interactions and energy dynamics.

In this study, Fgf20 was found to trigger movement and morphogenesis in dermal fibroblasts, facilitating dermal condensate formation essential for hair follicle development.

In this mouse study, NF-κB was shown to play a role in hair follicle cycling and morphogenesis, with specific activity patterns differing by hair type and involving noncanonical signaling for zigzag hair bending.

This study concluded that a new model of reconstructed human epidermis using keratinocytes from plucked hair follicles offers a less-invasive alternative to conventional skin-derived models for skin research.

This study formulated and evaluated a Hibiscus rosa-sinensis herbal gel, identifying a 20% concentration as superior in physical properties, suggesting its potential as an alternative drug delivery system.

Hair loss that spreads out can often fix itself or be treated by finding and handling the cause.

Hair growth and pigmentation in mice involve specific stages crucial for research.

In this study, researchers developed gellan gum hydrogels functionalized with biomimetic peptides that create a supportive microenvironment for human dermal papilla cells, enhancing their hair-inductive capacity and ability to mimic hair morphogenesis-like events in vitro.

This study discovered a novel mechanism by which germ stem cells exit their niche in C. elegans, involving thin membranous protrusions from adjacent somatic gonad cells.

In this study, researchers successfully constructed a high-precision three-dimensional model of human skin dermis, revealing a detailed analysis of dermal porosity and pore diameter distribution, which can aid the development of biomimetic tissue-engineered skin.

This study observed that in live rodents, actin filaments adjust their structure to facilitate membrane transfer between cellular compartments; linear filaments stabilize fused membranes, while branched filaments, connected by the protein Ezrin, drive integration, demonstrating actin's role in adapting to membrane biophysical changes.

People with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia have no sweat ducts and less, thinner hair.

This study found that a topical hedgehog agonist can stimulate hair growth by promoting the transition from the resting to growth phase of the hair cycle in adult mouse skin.

Hedgehog signaling helps keep hair follicle stem cells the same in both young and old human skin.

This study found that zebrafish with a mutation in the GDP-fucose biosynthesis gene exhibited enhanced and faster regeneration of mechanosensory hair cells, implicating the importance of this gene and Notch signalling regulation in hair cell regeneration mechanisms.

This study found that polyamidoamine dendrimers can permeate skin's current conducting pores and alter the magnitude and direction of electroosmotic flow, affecting drug flux during iontophoresis.

This study proposes a model describing the transformation process from living to dead cells during early hair formation, highlighting the stepwise degradation of cellular functions.

This research found that translucent keratin films absorbed more dye than opaque films, suggesting they may serve as better screening substrates for evaluating hair dye effectiveness.

This article reviews the role of the hairless protein in hair cycling and gene regulation, noting the need for further understanding of its JmjC domain and subcellular localization roles.

This review assesses existing knowledge about the 17q21.31 inversion polymorphism, highlighting its genetic structure differences across ancestries, associations with various diseases, and implications for precision medicine and drug discovery.

This study found that variations in chromium levels along individual hair shafts reflect changes in the individual's chromium nutritional status over time, rather than environmental exposure.

This study shows that the Wnt-β-catenin pathway promotes TERT expression in both stem and cancer cells, linking tumorigenesis with pluripotency.

This article offers a viewpoint on hidradenitis suppurativa pathogenesis, suggesting that impaired Notch signalling from γ-secretase mutations may drive inflammation and link the condition to other Th17-driven diseases.
