This study found that carefully engineered hydrogels and asymmetric morphogen gradients facilitated the formation of anatomically relevant skin organoids from iPSC-derived EBs, improving pigmentation and hair follicle generation.

In this study, researchers found that finasteride exhibits a solid-solid phase relationship that is enantiotropic at normal pressure and becomes monotropic at higher pressure.

This study describes a double embedding technique for preparing tangential sections of hair and wool fibers, recommending specific staining methods for quantitative analysis and demonstrating wool fiber cortical fractions.

This case study describes three young females with hirsutism who were diagnosed with different underlying conditions—late-onset congenital adrenal hyperplasia, idiopathic hirsutism, and polycystic ovary syndrome with ovarian thecosis—highlighting the need for reevaluation if initial treatments are ineffective.

This study found that physoxia improved hair follicle functions in co-cultures of dermal papilla cells and melanocytes by enhancing their biological activities and promoting hair growth and pigmentation.

This review summarizes the enhanced absorption and bioavailability of phytosome delivery systems, which combine herbal extracts with phospholipids to improve therapeutic potential, and provides an updated overview of their development, commercial availability, and patented technologies.

Junctional proteins stabilize the inner root sheath and connect the companion layer in human hair.

This case report describes a 57-year-old Japanese male with a folliculosebaceous cystic hamartoma containing unusual hair shaft fragments, providing insight into its characteristic histological features.

In this study, researchers presented a protocol for generating planar skin organoids from human induced pluripotent stem cells, which include hair follicles and other skin structures, offering a relevant in vitro model for investigating skin physiology, pathogen interactions, and drug responses.

This review discusses the potential of Pluronic F127-derived hydrogels for wound healing, examining their applications in various wound types and exploring underlying mechanisms and their interaction within the wound microenvironment.

This letter discusses tissue expansion for correcting alopecia in a child with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, but provides no new experimental results.

This study developed a stable, cosmetically appealing formulation for the topical delivery of the peptide FOL-005, enhancing skin permeation and maintaining stability by keeping the peptide solid and in a water-free environment with particle sizes under 10 µm.

This study developed an in vitro model using human follicular keratinocytes to observe selective cell growth and differentiation, potentially aiding future research on hair biology and growth processes.

This case report describes a unique lesion in a 10-month-old girl, characterized by increased eccrine glands and hair follicles, leading to the proposed term "hybrid eccrine gland and hair follicle hamartoma".

This study found that a single instance of acute skin stretching can enhance immune surveillance and improve vaccine delivery by increasing skin permeability and promoting immune cell recruitment without causing tissue damage.

This study suggests that dermal stem/progenitor cells can be enriched by intracellular granularity and display high proliferation and differentiation potential in vitro, distinguishing them from other fibroblasts and progenitors.

This study demonstrated that FT-Raman spectroscopy is effective for identifying finasteride polymorphs in tablets and detecting the presence of alternative polymorphs down to about 15% concentration.

This review discusses alternative androgen pathways, including the "backdoor" pathway and pathways to 11-oxygenated steroids, and reports no new clinical results; the authors aim to clarify these concepts for better patient treatment.

This paper presents diagnostic characteristics obtained from various analytical methods to support the pharmacognostic standardization of Lawsonia inermis L. leaf, commonly known as henna.

In this study, ethosomes were found to improve the skin penetration of a model lipophilic drug more effectively than liposomes or hydroethanolic solutions, suggesting a unique mechanism involving the breakdown of vesicles in the skin.

This study used fibre optic confocal imaging to visualize subsurface structures in live mouse skin, revealing cellular details and blood vessel networks that dynamic events could be studied in vivo.

This study found that microencapsulated dermal papilla cells in hyaluronic acid/collagen hydrogel retained their ability to initiate hair follicle regeneration, suggesting potential for alopecia treatment.

This study suggests that specific combinations of human type I and II hair keratins, particularly K35-K85 and K36-K81, have distinct in vitro assembly properties that are significant for macrofibril formation.

This article reviews the autonomous functioning and complex interactions within hair follicles, emphasizing their unique composition and differentiation pathways, but does not report new research findings.

This study found that dermal condensates are specified before hair follicle niche formation and require FGF20 and Wnt signaling for precursor specification, advancing understanding of niche formation and function during development.

This case report describes a 22-year-old woman with a nevoid plaque termed localized follicular hamartoma, characterized by skin-colored papules and specific cellular and structural features.

This article reports a rare combination of rapid-onset halo nevi, nonsegmental vitiligo, and premature scalp hair graying.
