This study identified new geometric and mechanical parameters for curly and kinky/coily hair, which may inform more effective personal care products tailored to these hair types.

This study used quantitative methods to identify new geometric and mechanical parameters of curly and kinky/coily hair, aiming to improve classification and develop better personal care products for these hair types.

This study found that two unrelated domestic shorthair cats had novel DSG4 gene mutations causing defective hair shafts, representing the first report of pathogenic DSG4 variants in domestic animals.

This study found that a shampoo containing a 6-active ingredient complex increased β-Catenin production in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells to levels comparable to Finasteride, suggesting potential for promoting hair growth. It also showed good cleaning efficacy, volume, and shine in a sensorial study.

This study found that the absence of Hif-p4h-2 in specific mouse skin cells disrupted hair follicle development, leading to hair loss due to irregular keratin formation and pathway signaling.

This research suggests that mouse mutants and genomics can help study hair biology and epithelial differentiation by focusing on the role of the Foxn1 gene.

This chapter reviews the presence and roles of stem cells in various body systems, focusing on their lifelong function in animals and humans, and reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses the interrelationship between the anterior pituitary's adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and the adrenal cortex, but reports no new experimental findings.

This case report presents a rare instance of recurrent ACTH-independent Cushing’s syndrome due to PBMAH, coinciding with the development of a pheochromocytoma, highlighting the need for thorough reevaluation in similar recurring cases.

This review discusses new developments in understanding the structure and properties of keratin fiber cell membrane complexes, without reporting new experimental results.

In this case report, the authors describe a rare cystic panfolliculoma in an 84-year-old man's right conchal bowl, noting its potential to mimic other tumors like basal cell carcinoma, which complicates diagnosis.

This study developed a multiscale spatial atlas of healthy skin and basal cell carcinoma, revealing a hair follicle origin for BCC and the expansion of specific cell populations such as POSTN+ fibroblasts and RGS5+ pericytes, suggesting roles in skin cancer stroma expansion and vascular remodeling.

This case study describes a rare cutaneous follicular hybrid cyst intimately associated with syringocystadenoma papilliferum, proposing a potential relationship with the infrainfundibulum based on keratin expression.

Capitate trichomes have more endoplasmic reticulum and vacuoles, while peltate trichomes have more plastids and larger subcuticular spaces.

This study reports a case of cystic panfolliculoma, highlighting the role of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions in its pathogenesis and explaining its histological resemblance to trichofolliculoma.

This study introduces the term "hair matrix cyst" for a cyst with both pilomatricoma and epidermal cyst characteristics, highlighting its potential for misdiagnosis among similar skin conditions.

This article discusses the need for a new integrative model in medicine that encompasses the complex interactions between body systems and the mind but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the types and characteristics of adrenal cortex tumors, including their hormone secretion and detection as incidental findings, but presents no new research results.

In this study, pilomatricoma, a benign skin tumor from hair follicle matrix cells, is highlighted as an important consideration when diagnosing painless, firm subcutaneous nodules, with accurate diagnosis relying on histopathological examination.

This study reviewed the literature on pilomatrix carcinoma and reported that while wide local excision was the most definitive treatment, local recurrences and metastases were common.

This report describes a rare case of ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome caused by a pheochromocytoma that unusually co-expresses both ACTH and corticotropin-releasing hormone.

This study found that a highly resistant structure, located at the interface between the cuticle and cortex of human hair, acts as a penetration barrier, which the authors propose to name the "cuticle anchored resistant base" or CARB.

This overview discusses the mind-body problem and suggests that the brain may be intrinsically part of the mind, processing abstract data without direct interaction, but reports no new research results.

This study observed that human hair macrofibrils predominantly exhibit a double-twist architecture with varying inter-macrofibril angles, advancing insights into their structural organization and mechanical implications.

In this study, a dual recombinase-mediated genetic system showed that cavity macrophages accumulate on the surface of visceral organs during lung and liver injury but do not penetrate or contribute to tissue repair.

This paper reviews adrenocortical carcinoma, discussing its prevalence, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options, but reports no new clinical results.

This study created a detailed spatial atlas of healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma, revealing a potential hair follicle origin for basal cell carcinoma and expansion of certain mesenchymal cell populations.

In this case report, a 27-year-old woman with a swelling on her neck was initially misdiagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma, but was later identified as having pilomatrix carcinoma with lymph node metastasis, highlighting the importance of accurate diagnosis for effective treatment and prognosis improvement.
