This study found that the molecular structure of hair is more sensitive to synchrotron X-ray radiation than its supramolecular architecture, indicating potential concerns for biological analyses using such radiation.

This study reports that using laser microdissection to isolate telogen hair follicles significantly improves DNA extraction efficiency for STR typing, reducing contamination from keratin.

This study found that in a mouse model of Focal Dermal Hypoplasia, treatment with lithium carbonate improved skin disease symptoms compared to controls, though disease severity varied and posed interpretation challenges.

This article discusses the use of laser technology in hair transplantation and highlights its potential benefits and drawbacks, emphasizing its role in achieving natural results in cosmetic hair restoration.

This study found that using a commercially available IPL home-use device led to significant hair reduction and demonstrated long-term efficacy in maintaining hair reduction one year after treatment.

This study reported that X-ray microscopy provides more intact images of hair's internal structure compared to transmission electron microscopy, particularly for observing fine details like cuticle coarsening and cortex cracks.

In human hair follicle keratinocytes, this study found that treatment with the pharmacological inhibitor QLT0267 led to a strong inhibition of proliferation and migration and induced nearly 100% apoptosis.

This study demonstrated a method for delivering a photosensitizer, Ammi majus fructuum furocumarines, into hair follicles using calcium carbonate particles, followed by UVA irradiation, which led to significant pigment accumulation, indicating potential improvements for photochemical therapy.

This study found that short-term treatment with ROCKi significantly increased keratinocyte stem cell proliferation without affecting their stemness, suggesting a potential safe approach for improving in vitro keratinocyte cultures for clinical applications.

This study found that the RapidHIT™ ID system can successfully obtain DNA profiles from single hair roots, particularly those with high nuclei counts.

In this study, Gaussian process regression models combined with Grey Wolf optimization were used to predict and optimize phenolic and flavonoid content extraction from Carthamus caeruleus L. rhizomes, showing high accuracy and helping improve understanding and extraction processes through a new interactive tool.

This study observed that in mice, small-scale x-ray irradiation resulted in uniquely rapid healing of hair follicles, differing from the hypertrophic and hyperplastic responses seen in larger irradiated areas.

Krt6a-Cre transgenic mice help study gene effects on hair follicle development and tumor suppression.

This study found that micro-niches within hair follicles create heterogeneity among stem cells and transit-amplifying cells, leading to specialized progenitors that control tissue morphogenesis and regeneration.

In this study, the researchers found that mammalian hair likely evolved through the adaptation of existing structural proteins, as similar cysteine-rich α-keratins were identified in chicken and lizard genomes, suggesting pre-mammalian origins.

This study found that proteomic analysis can distinguish hair samples across different ethnicities and body regions based on keratin protein levels, which may aid forensic hair identification.

This study found that keratin K80, structurally similar to hair keratins, is broadly expressed in various epithelial tissues and is involved in intermediate filament formation with multiple type I partners.

This review discusses the biological roles and diagnostic significance of keratins in mammalian colon epithelial cells and reports no new clinical results.

Proteomic analysis can identify genetic differences in mouse hair, helping understand hair defects and variations.

This study found that applying a topical inhibitor of TGF-β1 may enhance scar maturation and improve the appearance of hypertrophic scars in a nude mouse model after two weeks.

This study concluded that finasteride-induced DHT deficiency intensified constitutive iNOS expression in rat testicular and epididymal cells, suggesting a complex regulatory relationship needing further investigation.

In this study, the researchers reported extensive gene loss and high pseudogenization rates of α-keratin genes in cetaceans compared to terrestrial mammals, likely linked to hair loss and aquatic adaptations.

The authors conclude that optimizing hair shaft production and appearance may best be achieved by integrating biological, chemical, and physical intervention strategies.

This review discusses the diversity of keratins and keratin-associated proteins in wool and hair, noting significant variation in their families, with no new results reported; the authors detail known protein structures without experimental findings.

This study found that acid regulation of the TRPV3 channel can inhibit its function from outside the cell while facilitating it from inside, providing insights into skin barrier and disorder mechanisms related to tissue acidosis.

This chapter reviews the anatomy and physiology of hair follicles but reports no new research findings or clinical results.

This review discusses the evolution and revision of keratin protein nomenclature in light of genomic discoveries, reporting no new experimental results; the authors propose a new naming system for future keratin publications.

This study suggests the possibility of regenerating hair follicle structures in vitro using hiPSC-derived cell composites, which might reduce reliance on human tissue-derived cells for hair bioengineering.

In this study, researchers found that Dicer, but not Tarbp2, plays a crucial role in regulating the growth phase of hair follicles in post-natal mice.
