This study found that coconut oil impedes hair hydration more effectively than soybean oil by penetrating deeper, and suggested a new model for intermediate filament assembly in hair.

This study mapped 65 intermediate filament genes in the human genome, highlighting that the majority of keratin-related sequences are inactive pseudogenes, notably for keratins 8 and 18.

This study observed that ultrastructural changes like lamellar bodies and electron-dense granules in the stratum corneum may aid in the early diagnosis of Netherton syndrome.

This study successfully established a transgenic sheep fibroblast cell line expressing the spider dragline silk protein gene, laying groundwork for developing transgenic sheep with this capability in hair follicles.

This study found that distinct spiny hair morphologies in rodents arose independently multiple times but did not link the Ecdysoplasin A receptor gene mutation that affects human hair to these variations.

This study found that the cytokeratin patterns in skin epithelia can distinguish between different types, with basal-cell epitheliomas showing a striking similarity to the pilosebaceous tract.

In this study, researchers found that papain-treated or mechanically altered Asian scalp hair fibers allowed for spontaneous ion movement and anthocyanin dye flow through the medulla tube, with dye flow enhanced by applied DC voltage.

This article presents a protocol for using mouse tail skin to study hair follicle stem cells, enabling visualization of calcium signaling and other cellular features in various conditions but reports no new research data.

This study found that a curcumin-labeled particle-associated antiseptic penetrated deeper into hair follicles in porcine skin than particles without antiseptic.

In this study, researchers developed a microfluidic-assisted technology to create dual-layer microspheres containing mesenchymal and epidermal cells, which efficiently induced hair follicle regeneration in mice, suggesting potential improvements for hair regeneration treatments in conditions like androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that specific human hair keratins are differentially expressed in the hair follicle, suggesting a shared pathway of epithelial differentiation between hair cortex and nail plate cells.

This study found that Substance P increased mitochondrial activity and biogenesis markers in cultured human scalp hair follicles, suggesting a novel link between stress-related neuropeptide signaling and hair follicle mitochondrial responses.

This study introduced a novel in vitro assay for tracking melanosome transfer between melanocytes and keratinocytes, facilitating the quantification of melanin transfer and supporting the role of filopodia as a conduit.

This study outlines a method to isolate hair follicle stem cells from mouse skin using fluorescence activated cell-sorting for use in research models, but reports no experimental findings.

In this study, researchers found that specific miRNAs may regulate cashmere fiber traits in goats by targeting genes related to hair follicle activities, with significant expression differences between breeds.

This study found that Piezo2 channels are primarily located on sensory axon membranes in mechanosensory end organs, supporting a model where mechanical stimuli activate Aβ RA-LTMR neurons via axon protrusions.

This study found that Florida manatees have unique types of specialized nerve endings in their vibrissae, which assist in their sensory and manipulative functions in aquatic environments.

This research details a robust method for isolating hair follicle stem cells and epidermal keratinocytes from mouse hair follicles using fluorescence activated cell-sorting technology.

This study identified two novel genes, pmg-1 and pmg-2, expressed in various skin and gland tissues and potentially involved in the differentiation of epithelial cells in epidermal appendages.

This study generated a transcriptomic map of human hair follicle compartments, providing a database for identifying compartment-specific gene expression which may aid in developing targeted treatments for hair follicle disorders.

This study reported that mSKPs and DMSCs share similarities in biological characteristics but exhibit distinct transcriptome profiles, with mSKPs being more immune-related and DMSCs more associated with differentiation and disease pathways.

This study demonstrated that RNA-seq can effectively expand hair follicle transcriptomic profiling in a multi-center study, offering deeper insights than blood transcriptomics alone.

This study utilized advanced imaging techniques to quantify hair damage and dye uptake dynamics, revealing that compound penetration in hair is influenced by molecule size and lipophilicity.

This study reports that using nanogel and layer-by-layer self-assembly to encapsulate single dermal papilla cells can form cell spheroids that regenerate hair follicles successfully in a hair follicle regeneration model.

This study found that micro-needling with cosmeceuticals or platelet-rich plasma significantly improved wrinkles, skin laxity, scar softening, and hair growth over 12 months, with minimal side effects, and that the best results occur with pigment and platelet massaging between 5 to 30 minutes post-treatment.

This case report describes a rare instance of dermatophytosis in a young cat caused by Microsporum gypseum, confirmed by molecular analyses to be Arthroderma gypseum.

This study used single-cell ATAC sequencing to map chromatin accessibility in developing mouse hair follicles, offering insights into the transcriptional regulation and epigenetic mechanisms underlying hair follicle development.
