This study observed that the lower part of vibrissa hair roots in adult Wistar rats receives a richer blood supply and structural protection, compared to the upper part.

This review discusses the strong correlation between reflectance confocal microscopy images and horizontal histopathology in diagnosing skin tumors, highlighting the reliability of this non-invasive technique; no new clinical results are reported.

This study on rats found that topical application of bacterial melanin significantly stimulates hair growth by prolonging the anagen phase and enhancing vasodilation in the treated skin areas compared to controls, suggesting its potential as a cost-effective hair growth treatment.

This study found that higher homocysteine levels were associated with androgenetic alopecia and inhibited hair growth in mice, suggesting a potential link that warrants further investigation.

This study introduced a high-viscosity epoxy photoresist to enhance the fabrication of complex microstructures with monolithic integration and mechanical stability, enabling advancements in two-photon 3D printing for creating functional micro-mechanical devices.

This study found that keratin-associated proteins form part of the developing exocuticle and a-layer in hair fiber cuticle cells, while cornified envelope proteins were absent.

This study found that exosome-based therapy using rose stem cell-derived exosomes may safely induce hair repigmentation in individuals with gray hair, particularly for those with shorter durations of graying and androgenetic alopecia.

Touch domes in human skin are complex sensory structures not directly linked to hair.

Clinical signs don't match inflammation levels in lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia.

In this article review, it was reported that systemic oral antifungal treatments are essential for effectively managing tinea capitis, as topical antifungals alone cannot reach the hair follicle roots but may reduce spore transmission when used alongside oral medications.

This case study describes an acquired localized form of trichorrhexis nodosa resulting from physical-chemical trauma.

This study found that specific dermoscopic signs, such as diameter diversity of leukotrichia and Pohl-Pinkus constrictions, were associated with progressive vitiligo, and early-stage melanin synthesis was impaired in vitiligo-associated leukotrichia.

This review outlines the diagnostic criteria for congenital and hereditary hair shaft abnormalities and emphasizes the need to understand the weathering process in assessing these disorders.

This study highlights that a novel radially aligned nanofiber scaffold with dual growth factor gradients significantly enhances wound healing, promoting cell migration, epidermal regeneration, and angiogenesis, ultimately leading to improved wound closure, immune regulation, and tissue remodeling compared to other groups.

This study found that enzymatic phosphorylation of hair keratin increased its capacity to adsorb cationic components like methylene blue and may have practical implications for hair care products.

This review discusses pili torti, a rare hair shaft disorder, and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the need to investigate underlying conditions in affected individuals.

This study described a new wig coating technique using keratin and graphene oxide that significantly enhanced UV resistance, antistatic properties, and durability compared to traditional methods.

In this review, researchers examined advanced sensing technologies and bioelectronic interfaces that could improve understanding of the skin–brain axis, highlighting challenges and strategies for integrating these platforms into models for studying skin and neural interactions.

This observational study conducted in an Indian hospital found that autoimmune conditions, particularly alopecia areata, were the most prevalent scalp dermatoses among 152 patients, emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnosis and treatment to address both physical and psychological impacts.

In this study, 70% of female androgenetic alopecia patients who did not respond to standard minoxidil experienced clinical improvement after switching to a propylene glycol-free, witch hazel-based 5% minoxidil sulfate solution, with the treatment also being well-tolerated.

This article explores the use of monoclonal antibodies to study the presence and distribution patterns of melanocytes in developing human skin, but reports no new clinical results.

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 demonstrates a method using intravital imaging to observe sensory hair-cell development and regeneration in zebrafish, which may facilitate assays for drug discovery related to aural function preservation.

This research describes methods to analyze the mechanical properties and fracture characteristics of hair across different types and ages, using specialized tensile testing and imaging techniques, without reporting new results.

This study demonstrates that MPM-FLIM multimodal imaging can effectively assess the delivery and dissolution of zinc pyrithione particles in human skin follicles using different application techniques.

This study reviews various skin models and methodologies used to assess the follicular penetration of nanoparticle-based drugs, highlighting inconsistencies that complicate comparisons and aims to establish more uniform protocols for clearer study outcomes.

This study found that washing hair with surfactants reduces the internal density of hair due to cuticle lifting, and suggests that a cuticle-sealing strategy can inhibit this effect and maintain hair homeostasis.

This study introduced a novel method that uses upright structured illumination microscopy and atomic force microscopy to map the mechanical properties of thick living tissue slices, revealing the intricate mechanical heterogeneity of mouse skin and effects of preservation techniques on tissue stiffness.

This narrative review discusses the evolution and diverse medical applications of laser technologies, particularly in dermatology and skin biology, without reporting new research findings.

In this observational study, researchers found that socioeconomic factors and stress significantly influence alopecia areata in patients in the Indian subcontinent.
