This study found that glycylglycine treatment improved hair softness by enhancing hair alignment and altering internal fiber properties among Japanese women with typically coarse hair.

This study investigated the mechanical response of the human hair cuticle to strain and found that cuticular deformation directly corresponded with fiber elongation, revealing significant molecular-level changes in disulfide crosslinks but maintained structural stability, highlighting the role of the cuticle in stress resistance.

This study assessed three materials—L-arginine, hydrolysed keratin, and cystine-silanol copolymer—ex vivo for their potential to reduce undesirable effects of hair bleaching, such as damage to hair proteins.

This study observed that hair follicle cuticular cells undergoing keratinization were significantly thicker than those in a normal hair shaft, due to incomplete loss of cytosol.

In this study, researchers found that neonate hairs have a distinct microstructure with no medulla and smaller hair follicles compared to adult hairs.

This microscopy study examined the non-keratinous regions of human hair fibers, revealing detailed morphology that could help understand how external influences affect hair structure.

This study suggests that holes found in mature hair fibers may be linked to daily hair care actions and the removal of extractable substances.

This study suggests that glycoproteins tenascin-C and tenascin-W may influence the migration and proliferation of CD34-positive stem cells in mouse whisker follicles.

A woman with X-linked chronic granulomatous disease developed lupus-like skin lesions, improved with treatment, suggesting a unique skin condition in carriers.

This study supports the idea that inflammation may play a role in the development of androgenetic alopecia, as indicated by certain immune deposits and porphyrins found more frequently in bald scalp biopsies compared to controls.

A man was diagnosed with a rare form of lupus after showing unique skin symptoms that responded well to treatment.

This study reported that human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived skin organoids, used to model epidermolysis bullosa, have an epidermal-dermal junction largely lacking type VII collagen, which is important for skin structure.

This study found that women with androgenetic alopecia showing a positive immunoreactant profile responded well to combined therapy with minocycline, topical steroids, and red light, indicating an immunologically driven trigger.

This study found that various plant oils can penetrate the lipid-rich cell membrane complex of hair, improving its fatigue strength by preventing flaw propagation, with greater penetration observed for oils containing shorter chain lengths and unsaturated fatty acids.

This study found that in anagen hair follicles, the basement membrane zone components showed decreased expression in the lower hair bulb, with a complete absence of BP230 at the dermal papilla junction, suggesting an incomplete hemidesmosome structure in these regions.

In this study, the researchers observed that a recombinant human collagen complex with nicotinamide promoted hair growth in rat models, increased hair follicle stem cell survival, and enhanced key protein expression, suggesting potential benefits for hair health and loss prevention.

This chapter reviews the complexity of hair and wool follicle formation, emphasizing the importance of cytological studies to understand the relationship between cellular components.

This study found that a dietary change in common marmosets significantly reduced in vitro erythrocyte haemolysis, improved skin lesions, and promoted complete fur regrowth, possibly due to increased vitamin E levels.

This article reviews the role of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions in hair follicle development and discusses the challenges of understanding the signals that regulate this complex process; it reports no new results.

This study found that absence of α3 integrin in mice led to faster wound healing but also caused inflammation, hair loss, and skin defects, suggesting complex roles in skin integrity and repair.

This study reports that Echinacea-loaded silk fibroin/chitosan dressings may effectively promote scarless skin regeneration and accelerate wound healing compared to conventional treatments.

In this study, researchers modified an acellular scaffold with different concentrations of eggshell membrane protein, finding that a 5% concentration effectively enhanced tissue regeneration in mice with excisional wounds, achieving complete healing within 14 days without causing immunogenicity or inflammation.

This study found that in lichen planopilaris, the basement membrane zone of the hair follicles exhibited disrupted and discontinuous staining patterns, potentially contributing to scarring and irreversible hair loss.

This case report describes the successful use of bovine amniotic membrane preserved in propolis for promoting rapid wound healing and hair regrowth in a cat with extensive skin necrosis.

This study observed that hair loss, which resolved on its own within six months, was reported by some patients after extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, suggesting it as a potential side effect.

This study reports that transplantation of an ESCs-collagen-chitin biomimetic membrane leads to successful in situ skin regeneration, including hair follicle cell proliferation and formation of dermatoglyphs, in nude mice with full-thickness skin defects.

In this study, Tmem30b was identified as a key regulator of outer hair cell structure in mice, and its modulation may offer a therapeutic approach for certain types of hearing loss.

This study demonstrated that in live rodents, actin filaments adjust their structure to facilitate membrane transfer between cellular compartments with different biophysical properties.

This study developed a sensor that effectively measures Tl+ cation in solutions with a wide dynamic range and low detection limit, responding linearly within the concentration range 1.0 × 10−8 to 1.0 × 10−1M.

This case report describes a 2-year-old boy in critical condition who developed anagen effluvium, possibly due to hypotension and hypoxia triggering hair follicle apoptosis.
