In this study, researchers identified a new dominant mutation in Hairless mice, called Pied, resulting from a deletion in the Adam10 gene, which causes freckle-like skin pigmentation by inhibiting melanocyte expansion.

This study found that manipulating SIMK expression in alfalfa affects root hair growth, infection thread and nodule formation, and overall plant biomass, highlighting its potential biotechnological applications.

This study found that a newly identified mutation in the hairless gene in mice led to decreased Hr mRNA levels and changes in gene expression related to hair follicle development.

This study suggests that the vitamin D receptor and hairless gene may directly regulate each other via a transcriptional mechanism, potentially explaining phenotypic similarities between atrichia and VDRRIIa rickets.

This study reports the first case of atrichia with papular lesions in a Taiwanese family without a detectable mutation in the HR gene.

This research concluded that the novel hydrogel PlacMA, derived from human placenta and curable by visible light, shows promise for cell culture and tissue engineering applications due to its tunable properties.

This study found that hair follicle patterning in development may arise from a combination of epidermal prepattern signals and mesenchymal self-organisation, with fibroblast growth factor and bone morphogenetic protein activities playing key roles.

In this study, researchers found that transgenic expression of the Hairless gene in keratinocytes can restore hair follicle regeneration in Hr-deficient mice by repressing Wise, a modulator of Wnt signaling.

Children's hair loss has many causes and requires careful diagnosis and personalized treatment, including emotional support.

This article discusses the structure of hair follicles and their significance in evaluating hair disorders, but it does not report any new research findings.

This study found that flutamide-induced liver toxicity in prostate cancer patients was very rare, occurring in only 0.18% of cases with clinical manifestations, and symptoms resolved after discontinuing the drug.

This review summarizes the anatomical and physiological aspects of human hair and its clinical significance, but does not report new research findings.

This chapter reviews the complexity of hair and wool follicle formation, emphasizing the importance of cytological studies to understand the relationship between cellular components.

This review outlines a diagnostic framework for clinicians to distinguish different types of inherited ichthyoses and suggests further testing and treatment strategies, but reports no new clinical results.

This study identified two types of calcium in human scalp hair, with one type highly variable between individuals, potentially impacting the analysis of environmental and medical factors related to hair calcium.

Pollution exposure speeds up hair damage.

This study shows that environmental contamination affects mummy hair, suggesting that using it to assess ancient people's health or nutrition should be approached cautiously.

This study found that coconut oil impedes hair hydration more effectively than soybean oil by penetrating deeper, and suggested a new model for intermediate filament assembly in hair.

In this study, the bending stiffness of human hair was linked to the varying proportions of para-like versus ortho-like cortical cells within the hair fiber.

The document explains how hair follicles develop, their structure, and how they grow.

This article discusses the characteristics of human hair, its damaging processes, and the potential repair effects of immuno-cosmeceuticals, but it reports no new clinical results.

This Ph.D. project aims to evaluate the self-assembling potential of hair keratin extracts and study the cellular response to both crude and purified keratins, highlighting their potential applications from biomedical to water remediation.

This study utilized advanced imaging techniques to quantify hair damage and dye uptake dynamics, revealing that compound penetration in hair is influenced by molecule size and lipophilicity.

This review discusses the cornification process of epidermal keratinocytes in forming the skin barrier and reports no new results; it emphasizes the importance for diagnosis and treatment of skin disorders.

This study found that postmortem root banding in hair is likely due to the degradation of the intermacrofibrillar matrix in the cortex, with no damage to the cuticle observed.

This study found that using a standardized protocol with microspheres of approximately 1.5 micrometers enhances penetration into hair follicles, particularly when skin is treated with cyanoacrylate skin surface stripping.

Lichen Planus is a less common condition affecting skin and mucous membranes, with various types and associated risk factors, challenging to diagnose, significantly impacts life quality, and may have a risk of cancerous changes in oral lesions.

This study found that Hoxc13 mutations in mice cause defects in hair, nail, and tongue structures, with the most noticeable issue being brittle hair leading to alopecia.

This study found that 'smart' peptide hydrogels improved wound healing in a rat model of partial thickness burns, achieving greater wound closure and faster debridement compared to a standard treatment.

This study found that low fluence photoepilation with intense pulsed light targets the pigmented area of hair follicles, causing temporary hair loss by inducing a catagen-like state without severe follicle damage.
