A specific hair diffraction pattern may indicate breast cancer if tested with the correct method.

Artificially inducing hair regrowth in mice can change the normal pattern and timing of hair growth, with minimal color differences between old and new fur.

This study found that temperature affects the influence of daylength on prolactin secretion and hair growth in dairy goats, without significant involvement of melatonin.

This review examines the adaptive value and mechanisms of seasonal coat colour moulting in birds and mammals, highlighting the challenge of camouflage mismatch and the necessity for evolutionary adaptation under climate change.

This study found that an adult female farm-raised blue fox exhibited an abnormal hair growth cycle and seasonal estradiol variation, with a delayed winter coat cycle resulting in spring shedding.

This study describes a 4-year-old boy who exhibits a rare, synchronized pattern of hair growth and shedding, unlike the typical asynchronous pattern seen in humans.

This perspective highlights the potential of reptile integument as an experimental model to understand the evolution of amniote skin structures, but reports no new research findings.

This study found that melatonin implants caused male weasels to molt, develop a new white winter coat, and become reproductively inactive, suggesting melatonin affects their neuroendocrine system.

In this study, researchers found that disrupting the PRL gene in mice led to earlier hair molting, especially in females, suggesting that PRL inhibits murine hair cycle events.

This study found that disrupting the PRL gene in mice alters the timing of hair cycling events, causing earlier molts and changes in hair characteristics, particularly affecting female mice more significantly.

This book compiles papers from a 1988 symposium on human hair follicle research, highlighting collaboration between dermatology and industry, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that male and female chicken feather morphology and color patterns can be extrinsically modified through molting and resetting the stem cell niche during regeneration.

This study observed that in wild snowshoe hares, gene expression patterns during seasonal coat color change show a consistent lag between gene expression and visible coat color changes.

This article reviews advances in feather development and regeneration, including pattern formation, stem cell biology, and evolution, but presents no new experimental results.

This study observed that pelage development in male blue foxes born in early June was more synchronized than those born in early May, with differences likely influenced by melatonin levels.

Finasteride may cause side effects; more research needed.

This review discusses spatial and temporal patterns in animals, focusing on skin appendage organs, but provides no new research findings.

This article discusses treatments for female pattern hair loss, highlighting that oral antiandrogens and topical minoxidil can effectively arrest progression and reverse miniaturization in many patients with mild-to-moderate cases, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the generation of complex integument patterns through genetic, chemical, and environmental influences, with applications in tissue engineering, but reports no new experimental results.

This study reports that dynamic interactions between stem cells and their niche, influenced by macro-environmental factors, regulate regenerative behavior in integument pattern formation.

This study found that the proteins GDNF, NTN, GFRα-1, GFRα-2, and c-Ret are differentially expressed during various stages of the human hair follicle cycle, with potential implications for hair biology.

This study observed that both Factor XIIIa+ dermal dendrocytes and microvasculature size decreased with scalp aging and that alopecia changes resembled stress-induced premature senescence.

In this study, a child's diagnosis of Silver-Russell syndrome was confirmed through phenotype data, genetic testing, and the exclusion of other developmental conditions, revealing a need for a multidisciplinary care approach.

This review discusses recent advances in the diagnosis and management of female pattern hair loss but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that adult male raccoon dogs undergo seasonal moults, with winter fur maturing by the end of November after significant hair growth in spring and autumn.

This research found that feather pattern formation in birds is regulated by a mechanochemical system involving fibroblast growth factor and bone morphogenetic protein signaling, which is altered in the flightless emu and ostrich.

This review examines regenerative hair waves and complex hair cycle domains in transgenic mice, highlighting how these dynamic processes contribute to skin regeneration and the physiological regulation of organs, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that transthyretin and megalin expression in human scalp hair follicles varies significantly with the hair growth cycle, peaking during anagen and diminishing in catagen and telogen phases.

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 reports that melatonin influences gene expression related to cashmere growth cycles in Inner Mongolian cashmere goats, potentially aiding in understanding and enhancing cashmere yield through molecular regulation.
