This study found that hair proteome profiling and genetically variant peptide identification in hairs remained effective after an explosive blast, indicating potential for forensic human identification despite damage.

This study observed that transverse sectioning of scalp biopsies may aid in diagnosing different types of alopecia by revealing distinct histopathological features like follicle miniaturization and specific inflammatory patterns.

This study observed that temporal triangular alopecia in infants presents with distinct clinical and dermatoscopic features, indicating the usefulness of dermatoscopy for diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

Hair shaft changes may be linked to CCCA, but their role is unclear.

In this study, an infection model using rabbits was developed for dermatophytosis by inoculating macroconidia of Microsporum species, showing that direct intradermal application effectively progressed to the skin invasion phase and highlighted the correlation between severity of symptoms and duration post-inoculation.

This letter to the editor describes a case of acquired progressive kinking of the hair in a Korean female adolescent, but no new research findings are reported.

This study developed a model using homogenization-based framework to quantify solvent and solute flow across Janus membranes, aiming to better understand interface phenomena like osmosis and phoresis by examining micro- and macro-scale behaviors.

This article introduces a special issue of "Lasers in Surgery and Medicine" focused on dermatology and plastic surgery, but it presents no new research findings.

This protocol describes using two-photon laser-scanning microscopy to study hair regeneration in live mice, offering detailed imaging capabilities for observing hair follicle stem cell behavior and manipulating cellular populations.

Hair fibers interact through classical forces, which are influenced by treatments and products, important for hair care and other applications.

This study found that keratin derivatives with functionalized thiol groups improved binding to both natural and bleached hair fibers, suggesting a promising strategy for enhancing keratin's durability in hair repair.

This study showed that chemical and mechanical treatments significantly alter the nanoscale surface properties of hair, affecting its roughness, mechanical stiffness, adhesion, and surface potential.

This study found that increased atypical club hair observed in microscopic hair examinations may be characteristic of telogen effluvium compared to healthy individuals and diffuse alopecia areata patients.

In this study, researchers examined juglone's potential as a restoring agent for hair keratin damaged by permanent or bleaching treatments, finding that juglone formed Michael adducts with cysteine residues, leading to a more regular hair surface as observed via IR spectroscopy and SEM analysis.

In this study, R-CSLM showed promise in evaluating hair shaft diseases by providing high-quality images of hair structures, although further development is necessary for follicle and perifollicular area analysis.

This study demonstrates that the newly developed portable reflectance confocal microscope (PRCM) offers real-time, noninvasive monitoring of wound healing processes by visualizing skin morphology in both mice and humans.

This study found that increasing a drug's lipophilicity and adding ethanol to the donor phase can enhance its delivery to the hair follicle, although the precise transport mechanism remains unclear.

This review discusses in vitro methods for evaluating the effects of hair care products on hair fibers, reporting no new results; the authors emphasize the importance of selecting appropriate and accurate equipment for testing.

This study suggests that specific combinations of human type I and II hair keratins, particularly K35-K85 and K36-K81, have distinct in vitro assembly properties that are significant for macrofibril formation.

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.

This article is from the ASPS Education Network and does not report any new research findings.

This study analyzed the nanotribological properties of various hair types and human skin, revealing differences in friction and adhesion based on ethnicity and hair condition.

In this study, the researchers developed and optimized a curcumin nanocrystal gel to enhance skin permeability, reporting improved dissolution properties and antiproliferative effects on cell lines, suggesting it as a promising topical delivery system.

This comprehensive literature review highlighted that lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia, both primary scarring alopecias, are diagnosed via scalp biopsy, with no standardized treatments available, necessitating individualized therapeutic approaches based on patient characteristics.

This study reported three related cases of woolly hair syndrome transmitted as a dominant autosomal trait, characterized by fine, frizzy hair and general hair thinning.

In this study, researchers developed a three-dimensional ultrastructural analysis tool using serial block-face scanning electron microscopy to reveal detailed nerve networks and muscle structures in human skin tissues, demonstrating the technique's potential to study structural changes in aging or disease.

In this study, researchers analyzed data from 132 hospitalized kerion patients over 11 years, mostly children under 11 from rural areas, and noted a significant male predominance and frequent animal contact as potential transmission factors.

Eosinophils are not a reliable marker for diagnosing alopecia areata.

This study found that male and female hair specimens show structural differences, with female hair having a brown color at the distal end and smooth surface texture, while male hair is completely black and shows surface irregularities; these differences may aid forensic analysis.

This case report describes the first confirmed instance of trichodysplasia spinulosa in a child with Down syndrome and leukemia, linking it to the TS-associated polyomavirus.
