This study found that heating damages Asian black male and female hair cuticles without altering their structure, with damage severity increasing at higher temperatures and longer exposure times.

This study found that root hair length and density in rice are controlled by distinct genomic regions, with 18 regions identified but no overlap between the traits.

In this study, researchers observed that fasting-induced molting in laying hens led to increased thyroid hormones, which may regulate feather molting by affecting hair follicle growth through specific signaling pathways, highlighting molecular changes during induced molting.

This study found that finasteride-loaded microemulsions using poloxamer 124 significantly enhanced skin penetration of the drug compared to a standard solution, primarily through targeting hair follicles via the transfollicular pathway, with intercluster, intercellular, and transcellular pathways contributing less.

In this study, researchers found that using 0.75% aspartic acid as an intermediate agent for a permanent wave improved wave formation and retention compared to a control in virgin hair, also reducing cuticle damage and maintaining tensile strength.

This study found that despite chemical differences, five different brands of reconstructive hair fibers all provided successful cosmetic results in disguising hair loss in patients.

This study identified increased expression of ACAA1 and its regulation by hsa-miR-1343-3p, linking androgenetic alopecia to lipid metabolism pathways, particularly through PPAR signaling, in scalp tissues.

This systematic review and meta-analysis found that low-dose minoxidil treatment effectively enhances facial hair development with relatively minimal side effects, which can be beneficial in primary care settings.

This study's network meta-analysis reported that botulinum injection combined with red laser and topical minoxidil is most effective for increasing hair density in androgenetic alopecia when using low-level laser therapy.

This study used atomic force microscopy to identify significant morphological differences in hair from patients with lichen planopilaris compared to healthy controls, noting more scratches, uneven edges, and pitted scales in affected hair, which may aid future research on the condition.

In a systematic review and meta-analysis, this study reported that oral spironolactone showed a 56.60% overall improvement in female pattern hair loss, with better results in combination therapy, but emphasized the need for more research due to varied treatment responses and adverse event rates.

This report describes common skin CT features of rosacea identified using a reflective confocal microscope, facilitating more objective diagnosis but highlights the need for further clinical exploration.

This study explored using 3D models derived from reflectance confocal microscopy to better understand and differentiate melanoma on sun-damaged skin, suggesting enhanced diagnostic possibilities.

In this study, the researchers developed minoxidil cubosomes using nanotechnology, which improved drug penetration in the skin, showed greater hair growth efficacy, and reduced adverse skin reactions compared to traditional minoxidil solutions.

This study found that peroxide-rich plasma-activated water caused minimal morphological damage to hair, while nitrate-rich plasma-activated water induced significant damage, especially in porous hair types.

In this study, hair samples from breast cancer patients showed increased β-sheet structures and lipid content, with spectral markers successfully identifying cancer in a blind test but also producing false positives.

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.

In this study, researchers developed a method to automatically detect androgen receptor nuclear translocation in dermal papilla cells using fluorescence markers and image analysis, finding that the receptor's nuclear signal peaks about 20 minutes after DHT exposure.

This study found that higher expression of the Hoxc13 gene in specific areas of hair follicles is associated with longer wool length in Gansu alpine fine-wool sheep.

This study introduced a non-invasive, three-step diagnostic algorithm for alopecia that combines clinical and trichoscopic features to accurately identify alopecia subtypes, potentially reducing reliance on invasive histopathology.

This scoping review reports that while empirical evidence suggests an overlap between Long/Post Covid-19 syndrome, chronic fatigue syndrome, and fibromyalgia, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear, highlighting the need for standardized definitions and rigorous methodologies in Long Covid research.

This review discusses techniques for analyzing the cell cycle, highlighting emerging tools for measuring cell cycle speed at single-cell resolution in live animals, and reports no new results.

This study found that dandruff-afflicted individuals had a less integrated microbial network on the scalp and hair surface compared to healthy individuals, with more positive interactions and unstable connections.

This study revealed that BMP5 in onychofibroblasts may play a key role in the differentiation of nail matrix keratinocytes, highlighting transcriptional similarities between nail and hair structures.

This study reports that a robotic and AI-based system successfully analyzes FUE hair transplant procedures, aiding surgeons in planning and assessing operation success through detailed pre-op and post-op evaluations.

This study observed that high levels of immunoreactive cortisol in the tail hair of captive Asian elephants were often associated with stressful or distinct behavioral events, suggesting its potential for reconstructing their physiological history.

This case report describes the first known instance of hair and eyebrow hyperpigmentation in a patient after seven months of gefitinib treatment for non-small cell lung cancer.

In this study, PRP-derived exosomes significantly outperformed minoxidil in promoting hair regeneration in a murine model of androgenetic alopecia, with the combination of both treatments showing enhanced follicular regeneration and increased markers of tissue proliferation and Wnt signaling pathway activity.

This case report discusses a 15-year-old boy with pachyonychia congenita, identifying a keratin 17 gene mutation, and highlights the need for a national registry and more accessible genetic testing in India.

In this study, L-cysteine treated with the Trivedi Effect® showed significantly increased isotopic abundance ratios, which may enhance its stability and shelf-life.
