Using mouse hair follicle organoids, this study demonstrated that BMP4 plays a key role in controlling hair follicle coloration and growth, as well as directing Nestin-positive stem cells towards becoming melanocytes, the pigment-producing cells responsible for hair color.

The study reported that mice receiving dynamized Melatonin 6 cH and Lissotriton 6 cH for 14 days exhibited improved coat health and increased endurance in forced swimming tests, with Melatonin-treated mice swimming 2.5 times longer and Lissotriton-treated mice 4 times longer than controls.

This study demonstrates that encapsulating cell-free fat extract in a gelatin methacrylate hydrogel enhances flap repair by sustaining angiogenesis, reducing oxidative stress, and offering favorable biocompatibility in a murine skin flap model, thereby advancing potential clinical flap necrosis treatments.

This study found that the Msx2 gene may regulate goose feather follicle development by influencing cell viability and gene expression, with potential implications for improving down production.

This study found that the absence of Hes1 in hair follicles delays secondary hair germ activation and shortens the anagen phase, impacting HFSC self-renewal and long-term hair regeneration.

This study found that the development and differentiation of Merkel cells in C57BL mouse embryos' dorsolateral skin are linked to tylotrich follicle formation rather than to neural influences.

The digital system for measuring melasma shows promise but needs more development for better accuracy and automation.

This study found that loss of the Ptch2 receptor in mice leads to increased incisor growth and enhanced mesenchymal stem cell differentiation, highlighting Ptch2's role in organ regenerative potential.

This study utilized a pigmented human epidermal equivalent model to incorporate melanocytes into the epidermis and found enhanced differentiation potential compared to conventional in vitro systems, reflecting in vivo cellular trajectories and highlighting melanocyte-to-keratinocyte communication pathways.

This study found that α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone increased melanin production in hair follicles of moulting Siberian hamsters, whereas [8-arginine]-vasotocin inhibited melanin production without affecting tyrosinase activity.

This study developed lipid-core nanocapsules for encapsulating menthol, improving its solubility and thermal stability, and demonstrated their safety and rapid skin absorption in ex vivo tests, highlighting potential applications for cosmeceuticals.

This study found that melatonin may enhance hair growth properties in dermal papilla cells by activating the AKT/GSK3β/β-catenin signaling pathway through melatonin receptors.

This study reports a highly sensitive MEMS silicon-hair device that mimics hair follicle functions by detecting minimal forces and moments, including electrostatic attraction and surface tension of liquids.

This animal study observed that while topical MBEH and intraperitoneal phenol induced hair graying in eumelanic mice, they had little effect on pheomelanic mice, and amcinonide reduced certain epidermal melanocytes in both.

This study demonstrated that human iPSC-derived melanocytes, when transplanted into mice, can reconstitute pigmented hair follicles and integrate into normal tissue, suggesting their potential as a cellular therapy for depigmentation.

Touch domes in human skin are complex sensory structures not directly linked to hair.

This review discusses the causes and diagnostic process for facial hypermelanosis, emphasizing the need to rule out systemic disorders like Addison's disease; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that murine skin is a target for melatonin bioregulation, as melatonin affected DNA synthesis and tyrosinase activity in skin organ culture.

This study found that Sonic hedgehog signaling is crucial for Merkel cell development around hair follicles in mice, with Polycomb repressive complex 2 loss causing ectopic Merkel cells across all hair types.

In this study, researchers formulated and evaluated a herbal hair serum using natural ingredients, with formulation H3 showing superior viscosity, homogeneity, and stability. The authors suggest it may be a safe and effective natural option for enhancing hair nourishment and health.

In this study, researchers observed distinct morphological differences in hair follicles of mutant mouse genotypes, influenced by the expression levels of keratin2-6g, which is essential for proper hair follicle development.

This study identified and characterized a murine type II hair keratin, demonstrating its presence in specific cells of hair and tongue tissues.

This study explored the potential of silk fibroin methacrylate hydrogel microneedles to deliver α-MSH directly to the epidermis in vitiligo patients, enhancing melanocyte protection and melanosome transfer, potentially offering a new treatment avenue for this challenging condition.

This study provides evidence that human skin contains genes and enzymes necessary for producing serotonin and melatonin.

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 study identified the c.1204G to A (p.E402K) mutation in the hHB6 gene as a cause of monilethrix in a Chinese family, highlighting the gene's role in the condition.

This study concluded that a 5% concentration of celery extract in hair gel provided the best preparation characteristics, including standard parameters for organoleptic properties and spreadability.

This study identified a new mutation in SELH/Bc mice causing distinctive whisker and body hair abnormalities, mapped near the type I keratin cluster on chromosome 11.

This study explored the dermal stem cell niche of equine hair follicles, revealing typical fibroblast morphology and confirming the expression of standard stem cell markers comparable to other species.

This study reports that a carbopol gel formulation with melatonin shows potential for extended drug release and biocompatibility in dermal applications due to its favorable bio-pharmaceutical properties.
