January 2012 in “Indian Journal of Small Ruminants (The)” This study detailed the skin structure of Chegu goats, highlighting the presence of two types of hair follicles, with primary follicles associated with sweat glands and other structures.
February 2026 in “Frontiers in Medicine” This study found that fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution in Hispanic male patients often resembles androgenetic alopecia, with a tendency for earlier onset compared to European and North American populations.
January 2026 in “Minia Journal of Medical Research” In this study, testosterone-induced alopecia in male rats led to significant thinning and follicular degeneration, but treatment with adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction cells markedly improved these histological changes, suggesting a potential role in hair follicle regeneration.
February 2025 in “Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology” In this study, researchers found that mogamulizumab-associated rashes and alopecia are common in patients treated for mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome and may be linked with a good treatment response.
January 2017 in “DR-NTU (Nanyang Technological University)” This study observed that keratin sponges showed comparable biocompatibility to a commercial positive control in mice, but keratin gels had slightly inferior biocompatibility.
In this study, isotretinoin treatment in young male Wistar rats was associated with delayed ossification, supporting earlier reports of potential bone malformations from the drug.
This study examined prenatal and postnatal development of rat skin, observing marked changes in epidermal thickness and collagen fiber distribution as the rats aged.
January 2011 in “Leather Science and Engineering” This study found that rabbit skin histology revealed changes in collagen and elastic fibers after soaking, dehairing, and tanning processes, impacting fiber tightness and fur removal.
December 2023 in “Journal of Volgograd State Medical University” This study reviewed current research on white, brown, and beige adipose tissue, highlighting their roles in metabolism, thermogenesis, tissue repair, and stem cell activity, and identified the study of adiponectins as important for advancing knowledge of metabolic syndrome and tissue regeneration mechanisms.

August 2000 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that when human hair follicles were grafted onto mice, they progressed through dystrophic stages and returned to normal growth, with stem cells aiding in recovery.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that no patients with moderately dysplastic nevi with positive margins developed melanoma at the biopsy site, but those with a history of multiple nevi may have a higher risk of melanoma elsewhere.
