This study investigated the extracellular polysaccharides from the edible green alga Parachlorella sp. BX1.5, finding that they have potential applications in cosmetics and health products due to their stability, antioxidant properties, and effects on hair growth in mice.

This study reported the presence of dermatophyte macroconidia directly in clinical samples from a 3-year-old boy with tinea capitis, marking the first time this has been documented. The infection, caused by Microsporum ferrugineum, was successfully treated with systemic itraconazole and topical ketoconazole shampoo.

This study reports that in ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma, overexpressed S100A4 likely promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition and cancer stem cell properties, affecting tumor behavior through its interaction with NMIIA and mutant p53.

This study observed that mice with a whole-body deficiency of Cystathionine-β-synthase developed severe hyperhomocysteinemia and related mild symptoms without increased mortality, indicating HHCy may not directly cause end organ damage.

This study found that the AtSfh1 protein in Arabidopsis is essential for phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate signaling crucial to polarized root hair growth, utilizing both phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylcholine-binding activities.

In this study, researchers found that basal cell carcinomas with common Hedgehog signaling mutations may require additional mutations to hyperactivate downstream signaling and progress beyond dormancy.

In this study, the varied phenotype of trichothiodystrophy was highlighted, with findings of distinctive hair shaft abnormalities and a wide range of multisystem issues, including neurologic and urologic disorders.

This study found that bimatoprost eye drops increased eyelash length, thickness, pigmentation, and the number of eyelashes per follicle in rabbits, without causing inflammation.

This study found that bimatoprost eye drops significantly increased eyelash length, thickness, pigmentation, and the number of eyelashes per follicle in rabbits within one month.

This review summarizes recent research on the molecular properties and functions of L-PGDS and PGD2, but reports no new findings, highlighting their pathophysiological roles and guiding future studies.

This study aimed to document and compare the prevalence and characteristics of hair loss in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, noting the differences in trichoscopic and histopathologic evaluations between those with and without alopecia. Results are not reported.

This study found that environmental conditions significantly influenced rabbit coat quality, while dietary linseed oil supplementation changed the fatty acid profile but did not improve coat thickness or heat protection.

This research found that translucent keratin films absorbed more dye than opaque films, suggesting they may serve as better screening substrates for evaluating hair dye effectiveness.

This case report identifies an association between trichothiodystrophy and a urologic malformation with primary hypercalciuria, adding to the spectrum of TTD-related abnormalities.

This study reports a case of trichobacteriosis pubis, a rare bacterial infection causing malodour in the pubic region, which improved with hair trimming and topical clindamycin, subsequently enhancing the patient's sexual relationship.

A 4-year-old girl had a rare hair disorder affecting only part of her scalp.

This report on two Indian male siblings with monilethrix highlights trichoscopy's role in diagnosing this condition, which can be complicated by early-onset androgenetic alopecia.

This study used 3D imaging to reveal age-related reductions in the volumes and connectivity of dermal papillae and rete ridges at the dermal-epidermal junction, which are not fully apparent in 2D examinations.

This case report describes a unique instance of IgG/IgA pemphigus in a Chinese woman, highlighting its distinct clinical and immunopathologic characteristics, including successful management with dapsone and prednisolone.

This study found that somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in adult mouse skin exhibit significant plasticity, influenced by epithelial and neural factors, indicating a complex interaction in maintaining homeostasis.

This study in adult mice found that somatosensory axons innervating Merkel cells in the skin are highly plastic, with significant remodeling in response to epithelial turnover, and that Merkel cells play a role in limiting axonal branching and promoting their maturation.

This study found that coconut oil may protect the cuticle of chemically treated hair, which tends to be damaged compared to untreated hair.

This study standardized a reproducible three-dimensional human skin model for testing skin tumor promoters, using methods that do not require human skin sourcing.

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.

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.

In this study, silver nanoparticles derived from Ziziphus nummularia leaf extract showed enhanced antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant, and hair growth properties compared to the leaf extract itself.

This article reviews the clinicopathologic features of short anagen syndrome in a child and suggests diagnostic methods like clinical examination and scalp hair growth rate measurement, without reporting new clinical results.

In this study, researchers observed a dose-dependent occurrence of persistent radiation-induced alopecia in patients with primary CNS tumors or head and neck sarcomas, noting distinctive patterns and features, and suggesting potential benefits of topical minoxidil and procedural interventions for treatment.

This study examined vicuña skin and hair follicle structures, finding a high density of secondary hairs in fleece areas compared to belly and legs, and identified various types of cutaneous glands potentially important for chemical communication.

This article reviews the distinctive features of cutaneous lymphadenoma, a variant of trichoblastoma, and its differential diagnosis, but it presents no new empirical results.
