This case report discusses hair-tourniquet syndrome in infants, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and treatment to prevent serious complications.

This case report highlights the association of three CX26 gene mutations, particularly the D50N mutation, with keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome and its potential role in scalp squamous cell carcinoma and breast cancer development in a patient.

This report highlights a preterm newborn with hair-thread tourniquet syndrome affecting multiple toes, emphasizing the importance of early identification and removal to prevent severe complications.

A 4-year-old girl had a rare hair disorder affecting only part of her scalp.

This report describes a case of widespread Porokeratotic eccrine and hair follicle nevus in a 15-year-old woman with keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness syndrome, involving both eccrine ostia and hair follicle infundibula.

Elkonyxis, a rare nail condition, improved when patients stopped their nail-picking habits.

This study observed that in frizzled 6 null mice, initially uncorrelated hair follicle orientations develop into highly ordered patterns over time, suggesting possible mechanisms for biological structure patterning.

This study identified differentially expressed proteins and pathways potentially involved in wool bending in Zhongwei goats, with specific genes like COL6A1 and CRNN emerging as important candidates in this process.

This study of African-American women found that those perceiving greater hair breakage showed lower break stress and higher premature failure rates, linked to grooming practices and hair curvature.

This article provides guidelines and indices for a three-point cantilever bending test to measure mechanical properties of hair treated with both conventional and naturally-derived styling polymers, reporting no new experimental results.

This study explores the neurobiology and genetics of barbering (hair and whisker biting) in laboratory rodents, and its potential links to stress, aggression, grooming, and stereotypic behaviors, highlighting its significance in experimental work with these animals.

In this study, the researchers developed an advanced robotic system called STITCH for performing suture tasks, which completed an average of 2.93 sutures autonomously and 4.47 sutures with human intervention in physical trials.

This study found that intradermal injection of specific oligonucleotides altered hair growth and morphology in mice by inducing a dominant mutation in the K17 gene.

This study found that in wound-induced hair neogenesis, African spiny mice and laboratory mice exhibit different morphogenetic field formation patterns related to tissue stiffness, suggesting evolutionary developmental biology advantages.

This study identified a new mouse mutation associated with noninflammatory proliferative skin disease and hair abnormalities, drawing parallels to human conditions like Netherton's syndrome and monilethrix.

This study found that washing hair after reduction in a permanent waving process allows for significant reformation of disulfide cross-links, enhancing the strength and elasticity of hair fibers.

This study observed that disrupting the Pnkp gene in adult mice resulted in a premature aging-like phenotype, suggesting PNKP's vital role in maintaining normal growth and survival of certain progenitor cell populations.

This study found that milk protein grafting and cross-linking treatment significantly improved the pilling resistance of rabbit hair knitted fabric.

This study found that altering mechanical signals in mouse wounds, particularly through FAK inhibition, increased hair regeneration by modulating wound stiffness and gene expression linked to tissue regeneration.

This study observed that the catagen phase in hairless mice displayed a slower shortening of the mutant epithelial column, resulting in longer total follicle length and abnormalities in the connective tissue sheath and glassy membrane.

This study found that CNGC 6, CNGC 9, and CNGC 14 are crucial for maintaining calcium oscillations necessary for normal root hair growth in plants, with mutations leading to defects like swelling and bursting.

This study found that novel compound heterozygous mutations in the desmoplakin gene lead to hair shaft abnormalities and can result in lethal cardiomyopathy.

This article discusses Hair-thread Tourniquet Syndrome in children, emphasizing the need for prompt examination and intervention to prevent severe complications, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report highlights the importance of considering hair-thread tourniquet syndrome as a potential diagnosis for girls with genital swelling and pain, emphasizing the need for prompt intervention.

This study identified a mutation hotspot in the caracul (Ca) locus of mice, implicating the mK6irs1/Krt2-6g gene in hair formation and potentially human hair and skin diseases.

The study found that the Marangoni effect causes the uneven wetting of surfactant-coated hair due to the surfactant moving into the water.

This case report describes a 50-year-old Kashmiri woman with plica polonica, detailing trichoscopic findings of entangled hair with crisscrossing shafts and concretions.

This study reported that Dkk4-knockout mice showed disrupted hair follicle patterning, suggesting a WNT-DKK axis may influence regional specificities in hair follicle induction related to androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, a novel heterozygous transition mutation in the KRT86 gene was identified, which may be pathogenic for monilethrix in a Chinese family.
