This study presents a new approach to automatically remove hair artifacts from dermoscopic images, which reportedly performed well compared to existing methods like DullRazor using the PH2 datasets.

In this study, researchers observed that the combination of hair progenitors and their micro-niche changes every three days in mouse zigzag hair, and disruptions in specific genes affected this rhythm, highlighting the importance of this periodic change for normal hair morphology.

This study found that treating androgenetic alopecia with platelet rich plasma increased hair density and diameter while decreasing the proportion of telogen and vellus hairs.

This study identified a distinct "exogen" phase in the hair cycle during which hair shedding occurs, primarily coupled with the anagen phase, rather than as part of the telogen phase.

In this study, lipid peroxides were found to induce apoptosis in hair follicle cells and advance the catagen phase in mice, suggesting a potential mechanism for alopecia development.

This article reviews various topics discussed at a workshop on hair disorders, focusing on hair biology, diagnosis, and challenges in therapy evaluation, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study found that Polygonum multiflorum extract may promote hair growth by increasing anagen duration and activating dermal papilla cells in human hair follicles, as observed in cultured cell models.

In this study, oral spermidine supplementation was found to significantly prolong the hair follicle anagen phase and reduce hair loss, with effects persisting three months after treatment in healthy participants, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits for hair loss conditions.

This study observed morphological changes in scalp hair follicles of humans deprived of protein for 15 days, which suggests potential use in diagnosing protein-calorie malnutrition.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy can identify four specific hair morphology patterns in alopecia areata patients, offering a less invasive diagnostic option compared to punch biopsy.

This review outlines the histological structures of the skin, highlighting species and regional differences in dermal absorption and obstacles encountered in toxicological assessments due to epidermal thickness variability, contact dermatitis reactions, and stem cell vulnerabilities.

Androgenic alopecia causes hair follicle degradation and skin restructuring, but some hair elements remain.

This study found that centrosome ablation in developing epidermis triggers cell surveillance pathways, resulting in thinner skin and halted hair follicle growth, while later stages of epidermal growth may operate independently of basal progenitor division orientation.

This study found that the BMP antagonist noggin induces hair growth in postnatal skin by neutralizing BMP4's inhibitory activity, potentially mediated by changes in Shh expression.

This study investigated the identity of Victor Vinnetou as Mbuyisa Makhubu using forensic facial comparison and DNA testing, but the findings were inconclusive, requiring further investigation.

This study found that donor age and culture medium significantly impact the quality of human full-thickness skin models, with implications for their use as animal model alternatives in research.

This study found that grafting split-thickness human skin onto nude mice produces scars that mimic hypertrophic scar characteristics in humans, offering a useful model for studying scar formation and treatments.

This review discusses the nutritional and therapeutic benefits of honey based on its botanical origin, and it reports no new clinical results, instead calling attention to its varied uses and potential health impacts.

This study highlights a comprehensive approach for authenticating and assessing the quality of herbal medicines using a combination of physiological, morphological, and molecular techniques, including HPTLC, ICP-MS, UV spectroscopy, and DNA barcoding, to ensure the standardization of herbal medicinal products, particularly Eclipta alba.

This study found that human hair follicles demonstrated a dose-dependent response to light in an ex vivo photoepilation model, which could predict the clinical efficacy and permanency of light-based hair removal devices.

Topical treatment SM04554 safely promotes hair growth in male baldness.

This study found that Gsdma3 mutation in mice allows hair follicles to bypass a typical telogen phase and directly enter the anagen phase, suggesting Gsdma3's role in hair cycle transitions by regulating Wnt signaling.

This study suggests that 2% minoxidil and Kerium may promote hair regrowth in rats, while Aminexil showed the least effect among tested treatments; human-use products varied in efficacy in this animal model.

In this study, researchers found that bulge cells in mouse hair follicles undergo transient proliferation during early anagen, indicating their role as follicular stem cells. However, another factor beyond dermal papilla proximity may be required to initiate a new anagen phase.

This study found that the methanol extract of Eclipta alba showed dose-dependent hair growth promoting activity in pigmented C57/BL6 mice by influencing the transition from the telogen to anagen phase.

This study found that a gain-of-function mutation in the TRPV3 channel leads to altered hair development in DS-Nh mice by affecting the anagen and telogen phases, highlighting TRPV3's role in hair growth regulation.

This study found that cyclosporin A treatment enhances hair growth in mice by inhibiting calcineurin-NFAT1 activity, which alters keratinocyte differentiation and apoptosis-related gene expression in hair follicles.

This study found that, in Japanese patients with androgenic alopecia, sebaceous glands exhibit increased multilobulation which may be significant in the condition's pathology.

In this study, human hair follicles were maintained in a serum-free medium for up to 12 days, revealing detailed histological and ultrastructural changes that suggest possible catagen-like involution mechanisms.

This study developed a reliable RP-HPLC-DAD method, finding that amino acid concentrations in bleached hair decrease with higher hydrogen peroxide levels, notably affecting cystine.
