Pigs are a good model for studying human hair growth and disorders.

This article examines microscopic structural differences and pigment distribution in various rabbit hair colors and reports no clinical results.

This study suggests that the interaction between the hairless and wise proteins can help bald mice regrow fur, highlighting its essential role in hair-follicle regeneration.

This study found that arrector pili muscles formed by Sonic Hedgehog signaling play a critical role in maintaining sympathetic nerve connections to hair follicle stem cells, influencing hair regeneration, with implications for hair loss treatments.

This article examines the terminal to vellus transition in androgenetic alopecia through cellular and developmental mechanisms, discussing challenges and knowledge gaps without presenting new clinical findings.

This study investigated novel genetic tools to manipulate hair follicle compartments in mice and found that altering dermal papilla genes can significantly impact hair pigmentation.

This study identified a novel mutation and confirmed a previous mutation in the LIPH gene in a woman with autosomal recessive woolly hair, expanding the mutation spectrum for this condition.

This article discusses a case of patchy alopecia areata that spares greying hairs but reports no new findings; it refers to existing literature for context.

This report presents a case of alopecia areata manifesting in a linear pattern, deviating from the typical presentation of sharply demarcated round patches.

Hair color production is closely linked to the active growth phase of hair in mice and may also influence hair growth itself.

In this study, researchers observed that in mice, as they age beyond 200 days, unusual curved hair follicles and increased white hairs emerge, indicating stem cell-related changes in keratinocyte and melanocyte characteristics, providing insights into hair aging processes.

This review discusses the diagnostic criteria and guidelines for managing loose anagen syndrome and differentiating it from non-scarring alopecias, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, Min pigs were found to have unique characteristics for secondary hair growth compared to Berkshire and Yorkshire pigs, with the Wnt and BMP signaling pathways stimulating follicle stem cell activity and promoting secondary hair growth and gene expression.

This case report describes a rare occurrence of lichen planopilaris on the face in a 45-year-old man, contributing to the limited existing cases in the literature.

Hair loss on the lower legs is common in middle-aged men, usually harmless, and doesn't need treatment.

This study found that innate lymphoid cells-type 1 (ILC1lc) can induce alopecia areata (AA) by disrupting hair follicle immune privilege and causing hair follicle dystrophy and regression in both ex vivo and in vivo settings.

In this case study, a previously healthy 7-year-old boy was treated with a combination of topical minoxidil, retinoic acid, and clobetasol for a rare presentation of linear alopecia areata, resulting in full hair regrowth one year later.

This study found that concentrated clusters of noradrenergic nerve fibers form a longitudinal linear system in rat skin, particularly innervating arrector pili muscles.

This study found that dermoscopy showed distinctive patterns for different types of alopecia, supporting its clinical usefulness for diagnosing diseases with small round or oval hairless patches on the scalp.

This study reported distinct expression patterns and potential functions of lncRNAs during the hair follicle cycle in yaks, suggesting insights into lncRNA roles and conservation between yak and cashmere goat.

In this study, researchers used mRNA sequencing to identify and categorize over 49,000 contigs in goat skin, revealing significant gene activity related to metabolism, cell cycle, and cell division during hair growth.

This study found that melatonin upregulates LncRNA16913.1, which sequesters chi-miR-195-5p to release FZD6 and enhance fibroblast proliferation in cashmere goat skin, suggesting a regulatory mechanism within the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA cascade in vitro.

This case report presents a patient with woolly hair and associated symptoms, including keratosis pilaris, nail dystrophy, increased interdental spaces, and recurrent bullous impetigo, observing a combination not previously reported.

This study discovered a conserved "fiber-like-motif" of melanosomes aligned in hair across various mammalian species, shedding light on the internal structure that influences hair's thermal and mechanical properties.

This study found significant changes in gene and protein expression related to hair follicle development in Rex rabbits' skin during the first 8 weeks of life.

This case report indicates that hair transplantation using follicular unit extraction can successfully treat hair loss at the nape of the neck caused by acne keloidalis nuchae.

This study identified specific lncRNAs and mRNAs differentially expressed in miniaturized follicles compared to normal follicles in patients with androgenetic alopecia, with AL136131.3 potentially inhibiting hair growth and accelerating follicle transition to catagen through effects on glycolysis-related genes.

Whn is crucial for hair growth in certain areas by controlling a specific gene.
