In this study, researchers found that the cornification process in the nuptial pads of Xenopus frogs involves the expression of the type II hair keratin homolog, krt59, and is regulated by the transcription factor hoxc13, showing similarities to mammalian hair evolution.

This chapter outlines the sequential steps for using motorized follicular unit extraction machines with blunt punches in hair restoration, noting their advantages in minimizing follicle transection and providing tactile feedback.

This article discusses a historical case of a rare skin disorder involving alopecia and follicular plugs reported in 1907; it presents no new findings.

This study found that Cornu cervi pantotrichum pharmacopuncture solution significantly promoted hair growth in mice by enhancing hair follicular cell proliferation and up-regulating FGF-7 expression.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.

This study suggests that cutaneous lymphadenoma is a distinct benign lymphoepithelial tumor characterized by androgen receptor expression, hair follicle stem cell markers, and common EGFR gene mutations.

This study described the structure of the hair brush on male Endoclita vietnamensis moths' legs, identifying characteristics such as specialized scales and a pheromone gland, which could facilitate the future development of pheromone-based pest control methods for eucalyptus pests in China.

This case series highlights that nail clipping can aid in early detection and surgical planning of onychomatrical tumors by distinguishing between benign and potentially malignant growths based on the cavities' average dimensions.

This study found that methylene blue staining may reveal anatomical details of intraepidermal nerve fibre endings in the rat mystacial pad with greater clarity than the zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide technique.

This study observed that methylene blue staining and zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide techniques effectively revealed anatomical details of intraepidermal nerve fibre endings in the rat's mystacial pad, suggesting their potential role in mechanoreception.

This case study describes a 12-year-old boy with an unruptured epidermal inclusion cyst on his cheek, highlighting the role of dermatoscopy in diagnosing and differentiating cyst types for treatment.

In this study, the researchers observed that inducing and then withdrawing β-catenin expression in a bigenic mouse model caused reversible changes in skin morphology, indicating dependence on β-catenin signaling.

This study mapped the curly mutation in mice to a specific region on chromosome 11, identifying it as a candidate model for studying human genetic hair disorders.

In this study, mouse sebaceous glands were found to require nerves for growth during active hair cycles, suggesting a nerve-dependent sebaceous gland cycle coordinated with hair growth.

This review discusses the various designs of follicular unit excision punches used in hair transplantation without reporting new clinical results; it emphasizes the importance of understanding each punch's benefits and limitations.

This case study reported that a 13-year-old cat with paraneoplastic alopecia due to an intraabdominal apocrine adenocarcinoma exhibited ventrally distributed alopecia and shiny skin, with necropsy showing telogenisation and miniaturisation of the hair follicles.

This case report identifies a new type of hair matrix tumor called "rippled pattern trichomatricoma," distinguished by its unique cell arrangement and differentiation features.

This case report describes two guinea pigs infested with Acarus farris mites, which were successfully treated with Phoxim and removal of contaminated hay, leading to rapid resolution of skin lesions and alopecia.

This case report describes an unusual nail tumor termed "onycholemmal horn" in a 77-year-old woman, highlighting its distinct histopathological features and the importance of excisional biopsy for accurate diagnosis.

This article discusses the concept of "Follicular Units" in hair anatomy and suggests that maintaining intact follicular units may enhance the survival and growth of hair grafts, but reports no new clinical results.

Thorough clinical examination is crucial for diagnosing unusual alopecia.

This study demonstrated that the highly divergent WDSV rv-cyclin significantly stimulates eukaryotic cell proliferation, leading to hyperplastic skin lesions in transgenic mice.

This study found that microencapsulated dermal papilla cells implanted into mice ears led to the successful regeneration of hair follicles, with APA microencapsulations of 400µm diameter allowing effective nutrient exchange.

This review explores the infundibulum's role and importance in skin diseases and emphasizes the need for further research into its biology and potential therapeutic targeting, but it presents no new findings.

This case report describes a rare occurrence of pincer nail deformity in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus, potentially linked to Raynaud's phenomena as a contributing factor.

This study suggests that high proliferative activity and peripheral invasion are key indicators of malignancy in canine sebaceous gland tumours. It also reports a higher incidence of circumanal gland and testicular tumours, indicating a possible androgen-related pathway in tumour development.

In this case study, a shih tzu dog developed comedones and epidermal cysts on the abdominal skin following laparotomy, potentially due to the implantation of epidermal fragments into the dermis during surgery.

This study is the first to document significant age-related pathologies in endangered captive Julia Creek dunnarts, highlighting hormonal dysregulation and reproductive issues in females, while males exhibited higher occurrences of cutaneous diseases and testicular degeneration, providing valuable insight for conservation efforts.

This case report describes a 65-year-old man diagnosed with a trichofolliculoma, a benign tumor originating from hair follicles, which appeared as a persistent pore on his cheek.
