In this study, microporous electrospun scaffolds pre-seeded with dermal fibroblasts accelerated wound healing and improved dermal matrix structure and hair follicle regeneration compared to acellular scaffolds in a rat model.

This review discusses the evolution and development of smart and multifunctional microneedles, highlighting their potential future importance in medical applications, but it reports no new experimental results.

This article covers the classification and roles of various microbes, such as those involved in fermentations and environmental processes, but it does not provide new research results.

In this study, researchers developed a novel periodate oxidation method for extracting keratin micro-units from waste hair and feathers, achieving yields of 31.28% and 20.64% respectively, enhancing the stability of oil-in-water emulsions and suggesting potential for sustainable biomaterial production.

Only Deomyinae rodents can regenerate complex tissues.

This study found that microencapsulated dermal papilla cells implanted into mice ears led to the successful regeneration of hair follicles, with APA microencapsulations of 400µm diameter allowing effective nutrient exchange.

This study compiles data on the microstructural and cytotoxic properties of nano physical sunscreens, emphasizing the need for a technology platform to assess nanomaterial characteristics due to their growing use in cosmetics.

This study reported that the Pamona indigenous community near Lake Poso, Indonesia, relies on 21 macrofungi species for diverse uses, including food and medicine, helping to address malnutrition and disease prevention.

This study demonstrated that a single multimode fiber can be used for single-shot wide-field reflectance imaging, achieving high correlation with the ground truth and enabling real-time microendoscopy at up to 180 frames per second.

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 developed an improved reference genome for the African spiny mouse using long Nanopore sequencing reads, potentially aiding future research into the species' remarkable tissue regeneration capabilities.

Sampling methods greatly affect skin microbiome data in acne studies.

This study introduces a new type of tissue micromodule, the micro tissue precursor (μTP), which can form complex 3D tissues, including lung stroma and skin models supporting hair viability.

This study observed that amelanotic melanocytes from human hair follicles appeared morphologically immature, suggesting they might not transfer melanosomes into keratinocytes.

In this study, researchers found that exosomes derived from Pinctada martensii mucus can effectively inhibit melanin production in melanoma cells and zebrafish without adverse effects, potentially offering a promising therapeutic strategy for treating pigmentary disorders by modulating the NF-κB signaling pathway.

This study found that examining the microscopic and ultramicroscopic structures of donkey and horse hair can help differentiate between the species based on distinct differences in hair cuticle and brain substance patterns.

This study reported that a single treatment using macrofocused ultrasound energy with a 2 mm transducer significantly reduced pore count, pore volume, and pore index in 34 Thai subjects with enlarged facial pores over a 6-month period, with no adverse events observed.

This review discusses advancements in skin microphysiological systems, such as 3D bioprinting, skin organoids, and skin-on-a-chip, and their effectiveness in emulating human skin functions for research and preclinical applications, highlighting the potential for replacing animal testing with these innovative technologies.

This study explored the use of "microfollicles," a human hair follicle organoid model, as an in vitro tool for testing hair-growth substances, finding up to 75% overlap in gene expression changes with human clinical biopsy responses to minoxidil, indicating its potential for pre-clinical substance testing.

In this study, the 40-MBR system was shown to enhance drug-screening efficiency by providing reliable, real-time monitoring of cell conditions in 3-D cultures compared to traditional methods.

This study introduced a rapid rehydration approach for creating customizable, multifunctional hydrogel sensors, enabling precise detection of surface deformations and easy integration of layers, highlighting its potential for standardized and adaptable manufacturing of wearable devices.

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.

In this study, researchers developed injectable micropore-forming hydrogels that enhance tissue adhesion strength and promote wound healing by allowing better cell infiltration and inducing hair follicle regeneration in skin incision wound models.

This study discovered a conserved "fiber-like-motif" of melanosomes aligned in hair across various mammalian species, shedding light on the internal structure that influences hair's thermal and mechanical properties.

In this study, researchers evaluated the antifungal effectiveness of topical products on infected kitten hair, finding most were effective after one application, with enilconazole and lime sulfur showing residual activity; however, 0.15% ketoconazole with chlorhexidine had no such lasting effect.

In this study, a collagen sponge with isogenic fibroblasts did not enhance skin graft survival or wound healing in rats, but it did promote re-epithelization, potentially inducing epithelial inclusion cysts.

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.
