In this study, researchers developed hollow mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles and confirmed their synthesis using IR spectroscopy, then evaluated the nanoparticles for endocytosis and biocompatibility, although specific results of these tests are not reported in the abstract.

This study found that encapsulating dermal papilla spheroids in alginate hydrogel with extracellular matrix proteins increased alkaline phosphatase activity, suggesting an enhanced manipulation of dermal papilla activity.

This study found that a silk fibroin/sodium alginate scaffold effectively delivers human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells to promote scarless wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in vivo by inducing specific cellular processes and mitigating endoplasmic reticulum stress.

This review discusses how functionalized hydrogels can modulate the microbiome to aid tissue regeneration and infection control, highlighting their potential to deliver therapeutic agents effectively and support beneficial immune responses.

This study identified a target relationship between miR-148a, miR-10a, and BMP7, suggesting these microRNAs influence dermal papilla cell proliferation and may regulate hair follicle growth.

This study identified new oxidative derivatives of finasteride, including a newly discovered metabolite, by using the fungus Macrophomina phaseolina.

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 study found that Merkel cells in dogs are most numerous in sensory receptive areas like oral mucosa and facial skin, indicating a potential role in tactile sensation.

The hydrogel helps heal seawater-immersed wounds by reducing infection and inflammation.

This study describes a newly identified mite species, Demodex zalophi, found on captive sea lions and highlights its unique traits, including being the first of its kind described in marine mammals.

This study found that the desmosomal protein desmoplakin is crucial for proper epidermal morphogenesis and radial intercalation in developing Xenopus embryos, affecting keratin organization and ectodermal structures.

Three new techniques simplify and improve the preparation of tissue samples for skin cancer surgery.

This case report from the study describes a dog suffering from dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum canis, presenting with alopecia on the neck and ear, illustrating the zoonotic risk of these fungal infections in both animals and humans, particularly in hot and humid climates.

This study introduced a bioengineered model that simulates acne's microenvironment in mice, enabling the exploration of host and P. acnes interactions and presenting a novel platform for anti-acne drug and vaccine screening.

This article discusses scalp micropigmentation as a noninvasive method to conceal various forms of hair loss and scalp abnormalities and reports no clinical results; the authors highlight its safe and effective application.

This review highlights the application of microneedle technology as a promising advancement in psoriasis management, focusing on its roles in enhanced transdermal drug delivery and minimally invasive biomarker monitoring, while also discussing current challenges and future research directions.

This study found that using cultured mesenchymal stem cells from mouse whisker hair follicle outer root sheath in wound healing reduced inflammation, accelerated closure, and resulted in less hypertrophic scarring in mice.

This study found that the hair of a 16th-century female mummy discovered in Paju was remarkably well-preserved due primarily to a calcium-based surface coating that likely inhibited moisture and microorganism infiltration.

This study found that microporous electrospun scaffolds with a 70:30 collagen I to poly(ɛ-caprolactone) ratio significantly accelerated wound closure and dermal regeneration in full-thickness critical-sized skin defects.

This study found that biomimetic dermal papilla spheres cultured in a specific microenvironment can partially restore hair-inducing ability in high-passage dermal papilla cells in nude mice, resembling the characteristics of primary cells.

This study suggests that human dermal fibroblasts can be converted into dermal papilla cell-like cells using microencapsulation, which may facilitate hair follicle regeneration in mice without chemical or genetic reprogramming.

This study found that electron and proton microprobe analysis can reveal differences in element distribution within human hair and epidermis, although no significant water content differences were noted between atopic eczema and normal skin.

This study suggests that Demodex mites might universally inhabit adult humans, with a phylogenetic analysis indicating potential undiscovered lineages of the D. brevis species based on geographic differences.

This article discusses the discovery of the first known menstruating rodent, the spiny mouse, and proposes that a significant increase in progesterone during the luteal phase is a unique feature of menstruating species, but reports no new experimental results.

This study suggests that finasteride-loaded polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan microspheres could be a promising embolic agent for benign prostatic hyperplasia, showing effective occlusion and sustained drug release in preclinical models.

This review found that microinfusion of medications using tattoo devices (MMP®) shows potential as a minimally invasive method for treating ailments like alopecia and basal cell carcinoma, offering notable improvements with minimal side effects due to localized drug delivery.

In this study, Sox13 was identified as a novel marker for early hair follicle development and differentiation in mice, though it appears to be dispensable for overall epidermal and adnexal development.

This study developed electrospun nanofibers containing mupirocin for wound treatment, reporting enhanced antibacterial activity, high water absorption, and accelerated wound healing in a rat model, suggesting potential use for severe skin injuries at risk of infection.

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.
