This study suggests that a microemulsion formulation of Minoxidil effectively enhances drug delivery through hair follicles, showing significant follicular response alterations in an alopecia model.

This study found that miR-124 may facilitate the differentiation of hair follicle stem cells into neuronal cells by targeting Sox9 and Ptbp1.

This study found that treatment with EGFR inhibitors or mitogen-activated kinase inhibitors may compromise the immune privilege of human scalp hair follicles, suggesting new directions for managing drug-induced folliculitis.

This study found that postmortem root banding in hair is likely due to the degradation of the intermacrofibrillar matrix in the cortex, with no damage to the cuticle observed.

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 pilot study suggests that using growth factors followed by microneedle therapy may benefit women with female pattern hair loss.

In this study, FITC-labeled BSA nanocarriers delivered a model drug deeper into porcine ear skin hair follicles than the carriers themselves, as shown by confocal microscopy.

This study introduces a new type of tissue micromodule, the micro tissue precursor (μTP), which can form complex 3D tissues, including lung stroma and skin models supporting hair viability.

This study found that using a combination of video microscope for slivering and loupe magnification for graft-cutting in hair transplants achieved nearly double the graft productivity with similar transection rates compared to using only a digital video microscope.

This report describes a case of tinea capitis caused by Epidermophyton floccosum, highlighting its unusual ability to perforate hair and act as an etiological agent for the condition.

FUE successfully restored hair growth in a patient with alopecia from Hansen's disease.

This case study reports that treating a female patient with facial partial unilateral lentiginosis using a 532-nm Nd:YAG fractional picosecond laser resulted in significant improvement in pigmentation without notable side effects, indicating it may be an effective and well-tolerated treatment option.

This study reviewed the evolution of hair transplantation techniques, particularly FUE and FUT, and found that both methods offer satisfactory outcomes for alopecia, though FUE is preferred for its less invasive nature, while FUT is better suited for larger areas despite a linear scar.

This article discusses the establishment and global adoption of standardized terminology for follicular unit excision (FUE) by the ISHRS, which aids effective communication among hair restoration practitioners.

This case report highlights that asymptomatic domestic cats can transmit Microsporum canis, leading to tinea capitis in humans, as seen in a four-year-old girl in the study.

This paper reflects on the challenges and progress in hair restoration, highlighting ongoing efforts for improvement but providing no new empirical findings.

This study identified candidate compounds from a natural-product library that may interact with the PIEZO1 and MLCK pathways, potentially countering a non-androgen cause of hair follicle miniaturization, all based on computer simulations; experimental validation is necessary.

This study found that LEDs at specific wavelengths may improve antifungal performance and promote hair growth by activating scalp cells without inducing inflammation compared to a non-irradiated group.

This case study described the diagnosis of a trichofolliculoma in a 56-year-old woman, emphasizing its dermoscopic features and histological aspects that confirmed the tumor type, with no recurrence observed after excision.

This study found that caffeine and flufenamic acid penetrated porcine skin more effectively through hair follicles, while the importance of the follicular pathway varied for other substances tested.

This review discusses the widespread appeal and misconceptions associated with follicular unit excision in hair restoration surgery and reports no new clinical results; it highlights the technique's challenges and necessity for skilled execution.

This study suggests that the presence of Malassezia yeast in biopsy specimens from cats with multifocal or generalized skin lesions indicates the need for a thorough assessment for internal neoplasia.

This review highlights Malassezia's dual role as both protective and pathogenic within the hair follicle ecosystem, noting its involvement in skin disorders and potential cancer progression, and calls for further studies to develop targeted treatments for related conditions.

This article reviews factors affecting follicular unit extraction, emphasizing the need to tailor procedures to individual patient characteristics, but reports no new experimental findings.

In this case report, a 28-year-old woman's tinea capitis, diagnosed using a Wood's lamp, was successfully treated with oral itraconazole and ketoconazole shampoo over eight weeks.

This study found that partial follicular units extracted from the donor area can survive and regenerate new hairs at their original site and when transplanted, effectively creating two hair follicles from one.
