This study reports that a 190,000 molecular weight protein, identified as trichohyalin, may play a matrix role in the development of inner root sheaths in hair follicles.

This study suggests that the structure and function of the inner root sheath in mammalian hair may have evolved from simpler forms seen in monotremes, aiding in hair exit without damaging the epidermis.

This study explored the structure and keratin composition of marsupial hairs, finding similarities in keratin localization to hairs in placental mammals, and highlighting potential roles of trichohyalin and transglutaminase during hair development and shedding.

Loose anagen hair syndrome causes easily shed hair but usually improves with time.

In this study, the researchers reported the detailed anatomical structure of horse skin, including the composition and organization of the epidermis, dermis, and associated glands and follicles.

This paper reviews the surface degradation of hair and describes how combining 18-MEA with specific surfactants can maintain hydrophobicity on bleached and weathered hair surfaces.

This study found that the mechanical stiffening of the human hair follicle along the first millimeter is linked to changes in the keratin network architecture and composition during keratinization.

This review discusses the dynamic changes in chromatin organization and nuclear morphology during cellular processes like differentiation and disease, highlighting recent advances in understanding these epigenetic mechanisms without presenting new experimental findings.

This letter to the editor describes a case of acquired progressive kinking of the hair in a Korean female adolescent, but no new research findings are reported.

This paper details the early stages of human scar regeneration using topical iodine and examines hair's role in the regeneration process, noting hair's ability to move freely and transport regenerative material.

The book provides practical guidance on cosmetic facial surgery for clinicians.

This study found that cysteic acid generation during hair bleaching is diffusion-controlled, increasing with the square root of bleaching time, in both cuticles and cortex of human hair fibers.

This study found that in female patients with telogen effluvium, club hair in the isthmus region was longer than in those with alopecia areata, offering insights into hair morphology differences.

This case study reports that a 9-year-old Nepalese boy with tinea capitis successfully recovered with systemic antifungal therapy, though experienced focal alopecia without recurrence at a two-year follow-up.

This chapter highlights various commercial and open-source light sheet microscopy systems, detailing their rapid evolution and integration of multimodal technologies, with a focus on the ZEISS Lightsheet Z.1 system's advanced design for direct imaging and specialized sample mounting.

This study found that low power red laser therapy, combined with antiretroviral drug efavirenz, significantly reduces HIV-1 infection in TZM-bl cells to undetectable levels.

This study provides detailed macro and microscopical observations of Tridax procumbens Linn. leaf, which could aid in its identification.

This study describes a new method using near infrared femtosecond laser pulses to precisely ablate individual cells in the Drosophila epidermis and peripheral nervous system without damaging surrounding tissues, allowing for detailed observation of cellular responses post-ablation.

This case report describes a 32-year-old man with therapy-resistant acneiform eruptions later diagnosed as vellus hair cysts, emphasizing the condition as a potential diagnostic consideration in similar cases.

This study found that integrating Lactobacillus-rich probiotic nutrition and fractional CO₂ laser therapy with clotrimazole in mucoadhesive hydrogels significantly improved clinical and structural outcomes for women with recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis, suggesting a promising advanced therapy, though further validation in larger trials is needed.

This study conducted a comprehensive analysis of methods for assessing surface roughness, highlighting that contact methods using profilometers provide accurate results for machine parts, while non-contact optical and laser methods offer high precision and efficiency without damaging surfaces.

This study discusses eyebrow reconstruction techniques, highlighting the correction of unsatisfactory transplants using donor hair without laser or tattoos, focusing on factors like hair follicle density and eyebrow shape.

This study demonstrated that murine monoclonal antibodies can reveal specific patterns of desmosomal cadherin expression, Dsc1 and Dsc3, in human tissues and cultured cells using immunofluorescence microscopy.

This study found that the 16th-century mummified hair from a female mummy in Paju was remarkably well-preserved, with the hair's ultrastructural features maintained likely due to a calcium-rich surface coat.

This study revealed the complex three-dimensional innervation of touch domes in cat forepaw skin, highlighting the extensive branching and unmyelinated endings associated with Merkel cell–axon complexes.

This study characterized the mouse profilaggrin gene, finding it structurally identical to its human counterpart, and noted differences in protein-coding regions that could impact epidermal differentiation.

This study examined prenatal and postnatal development of rat skin, observing marked changes in epidermal thickness and collagen fiber distribution as the rats aged.

In this study, researchers found that an antibacterial toner can penetrate keratin and sebum plugs and exhibits bactericidal effects against Cutibacterium acnes, as evidenced by a decrease in viable cell counts within artificial plugs inoculated with the bacteria.

This study found that Blimp1+ cells from mice can generate sebaceous gland organoids in vitro, which mimic natural gland traits and may aid in studying acne vulgaris.

This study showed that in C3H/HeJ mice, focal follicular inflammation starts before overt hair loss, with inflammation severity possibly reaching a threshold causing hair follicle dystrophy prior to visible hair loss.
