This study found that 3D microtissue models of dermal papilla cells can enhance the ability to induce hair-follicle neogenesis in vivo, offering potential for controlled cell production in follicle regeneration.

This study found that down and guard hairs of Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goats have distinct protein compositions and physical properties, with keratin-related proteins potentially influencing these differences.

This study found that deleting the miRNA processing enzymes Drosha and Dicer from mouse skin epithelial cells disrupted normal hair follicle development and maintenance, leading to follicular degradation and stem cell loss during the growth phase.

This study found that the protein MIM is crucial for maintaining cilia and Sonic hedgehog signaling in mesenchymal cells by counteracting Src-mediated phosphorylation of Cortactin, impacting hair follicle formation.

Hard α-keratin in hair has a unique, nonordered structure, different from other fibers.

This study in male rats identified a unique type of mechanoreceptor, the club-like ending, which responds only to touch and not to self-motion during whisking, contrasting with other receptors that show mixed selectivity.

The researchers reported that identifying specific hair shaft abnormalities is crucial for distinguishing patchy/plaque mycosis fungoides from psoriasis and eczematous dermatitis on non-scalp skin using dermoscopy.

This study successfully isolated inner ear-specific exosomes from perilymph samples of sensorineural hearing loss patients using a novel immunomagnetic approach, enabling groundbreaking liquid biopsy diagnostics.

In this study, microarray and proteomic analyses indicated that genes involved in immune response, receptor binding, and growth factor activity might influence wool fibre diameter in sheep.

This study describes the presence of holes in hair fibers, absent in hair follicles, likely forming from daily care actions and removal of extractable substances.

This study investigated the integration of crystal engineering and microneedle technology for androgenetic alopecia treatment, finding that microneedles loaded with newly developed Kopexil multicomponent crystals reduced drug diffusion rates in vitro compared to standard formulations.

In this study, silver nanoparticles were found to penetrate porcine skin to depths ranging from 11.1 μm to 15.6 μm, potentially surpassing the stratum corneum thickness.

This paper compiles previously observed similarities in biomagnetic fields emitted by human hair and mouse vibrissa follicles, with findings supporting distinctive patterns of biomagnetic activity skewed to one side.

This study revealed the complex three-dimensional innervation of touch domes in cat forepaw skin, highlighting the extensive branching and unmyelinated endings associated with Merkel cell–axon complexes.

This study demonstrates that spatially resolved IR and Raman imaging can effectively reveal the molecular structure and composition of untreated human hair, providing insights into its chemistry and structural integrity.

This study used proteomics to identify various proteins in human hair, which may help develop novel biomarkers for hair health, disease, and aging.

This study found that using a protease-triggered release system enabled effective delivery of a model drug deep within porcine hair follicles, suggesting a new approach for treating skin conditions.

This study observed that the mechanical connection between hair follicles and connective tissue in human fetal scalp skin is weaker than in the corresponding skin components, reflecting dynamic processes in hair growth.

This study found that dermal papilla and dermal sheath cells from human scalp tissue differ from interstitial dermal fibroblasts in morphology and produce varying levels of TGF-beta 2.

In this study using Xenopus laevis embryos, reduced levels of the desmosomal protein desmoplakin led to defects in epidermal and cardiac structures, suggesting its crucial role in tissue integrity.

This study identified specific miRNAs and mRNAs involved in the development of secondary hair follicles in cashmere goats, particularly noting a targeted relationship between chi-miR-30e-5p and DLL4.

This study found that trichohyalin is expressed in various normal and pathological epithelia beyond hair follicle cells, where it is uniquely associated with filaggrin, suggesting a specific role in aggregating K6/K16-containing intermediate filaments.

This study found that early pigment cell markers Sox10 and c-KIT, as well as DCT/TRP-2, were detectable in melanogenically-active melanocytes of the anagen bulb in human hair follicles.

This study reported that pelage hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells isolated from mice using Ficoll Density Gradient Sedimentation can be obtained in large numbers and may promote hair growth via exosome secretion.

This study describes unique anatomical characteristics of the skin and hair structures in the silver marmoset, including features such as thin epidermis, specialized nerve end-organs, and distinctive gland compositions.

This study identified a new S100 fused-type protein, scaffoldin, in reptiles and birds and suggests that SFTP-positive epithelia serve as scaffolds for the growth of various skin appendages, indicating a common evolutionary origin.

This study demonstrated immunological cross-reactivity between mycobacterial heat-shock protein 65 and human epidermal cytokeratin 1/2, suggesting that this cross-reactive epitope might play a role in skin diseases.

In this study, researchers found that microRNAs in the oar-let-7 and oar-miR-200 families were significantly up-regulated during critical fetal periods of cashmere goat hair follicle development, suggesting their role in this process.
