Rabbit hair fibers are similar to wool and have a hollow center like feathers.

This article is a letter discussing variations in male sex hormone levels among different pattern subtypes of androgenetic alopecia and does not present new research results.

This study introduced the BASP classification, a new system for categorizing pattern hair loss in both men and women, and applied it to analyze 2213 Korean subjects.

This study presented 3D images of human dermis, revealing fewer elastic fibers near hair follicles compared to other regions, which may aid future skin engineering efforts.

This study found that Ecklonia cava polyphenols increased human dermal papilla cell proliferation and extended hair shaft length in vitro and ex vivo, suggesting potential as a therapeutic candidate for hair loss.

This case report details a 10-year-old boy diagnosed with kerion celsi caused by Microsporum gypseum, successfully treated with itraconazole over 4.5 months.

This case report describes a rare instance of dermatophytosis in a young cat caused by Microsporum gypseum, confirmed by molecular analyses to be Arthroderma gypseum.

This review of "The Columbia Manual of Dermatologic Cosmetic Surgery" finds it offers a basic overview of cosmetic surgery topics with little new information for experienced plastic surgeons.

In this study, microporous electrospun scaffolds pre-seeded with dermal fibroblasts accelerated wound healing and improved dermal matrix structure and hair follicle regeneration compared to acellular scaffolds in a rat model.

In this study, researchers identified three molecules in hair that varied with age, suggesting potential markers for aging and targets for cosmetic products.

This study found that the binding and release of BMP-2 from kerateine biomaterials are significantly influenced by pH and salt concentration, highlighting the potential for developing improved bone repair systems.

This study found that keratins have evolutionarily conserved and domain-selectively enriched amino acids, which likely reflect their unique structural roles, with distinct patterns observed among epidermal, hair, and simple-type epithelial keratins.

This case report describes a patient with autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 3 who experienced total hair regrowth following the successful control of diabetes with insulin therapy.

This study reports that mutations in human L-PGDS affect the entrance and exit of ligands in its binding cavity, suggesting these residues play a role in ligand interaction processes.

This study observed two cases of pigmented epithelioid melanocytoma suggesting potential differing origins: one from a hair follicle's outer root sheath and another from an intradermal nevus.

This study observed that among children with neurofibromatosis type 1 in Russia, selumetinib treatment led to a partial reduction in plexiform neurofibroma volume in 65% of cases, with 56% showing a long-term response without surgery; common side effects included skin rash and hair issues.

This study found variation in erythema induction across skin types, suggesting different SSR dose responses and highlighting a potential model for tailoring anti-inflammatory treatments.

Cats' hairy skin has different touch receptors connected by myelinated fibers.

Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.

This study found that COL17 deficiency in neonatal mice causes abnormal skin cell proliferation due to disrupted Wnt signaling, while replenishing or overexpressing COL17 can reverse this effect in both neonatal and aged skin.

This study found that type II keratins in proliferating epithelial tissues are phosphorylated at a conserved motif during mitosis and stress, impacting keratin solubilization and reorganization.

This study demonstrated that high oral doses of finasteride caused external genital abnormalities in male rhesus monkey fetuses, but intravenous doses did not lead to abnormalities.

This study identified a distinct gene near the hairless locus on chromosome 8p that is responsible for hereditary Marie Unna type hypotrichosis in a German family.

Revertant cell therapy shows promise for treating type XVII collagen deficiency, but better cell selection methods are needed.

This study found that control of Demodex mite colonization in mice required skin ILC2s and IL-13, highlighting their role in maintaining HF integrity and limiting mite overgrowth.

This study found widespread losses of g-type lysozyme genes across various mammalian lineages, with both gene copies extensively lost in cetaceans and sirenians, and linked this to hairlessness in these fully aquatic mammals.

MK-386 and finasteride together effectively reduce DHT levels, potentially treating acne and male pattern baldness.

This study found that, among women with type 1 diabetes, those with polycystic ovary syndrome did not show worse lipoprotein and inflammatory glycoprotein profiles compared to those without the syndrome, although they had more harmful HDL particle subclasses than women with typical PCOS.

This study reviews current evidence on the role of ILC3s in the skin, highlighting their potential involvement in responding to microbiome changes such as those associated with acne and suggesting gaps in understanding their mechanisms.

This study found that the type 2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-13 may amplify Staphylococcus aureus-induced inflammation and barrier disruption in atopic dermatitis, potentially worsening skin defense against this bacterium.
