This study found that higher levels of the protein Flii were associated with enhanced hair follicle regeneration and longer hair fibers in a mouse model.

In this laboratory study, the methanolic extract of Eclipta alba demonstrated significant anthelmintic activity against earthworms (Pheretima posthuma), causing paralysis and death at doses of 50-100 mg/ml, with stronger effects observed at higher concentrations compared to the standard treatment, albendazole.

This study found that Piedraia hortae invades and damages human hair by slowly degrading keratin in the cortex, which may contribute to the fungus's persistence and the chronic nature of the infection.

This study identified corilagin as a major antitumor component in Phyllanthus niruri, with broad-spectrum activity against cancer cells and high content in Dimocarpus longan.

This study found that Phyllanthus urinaria extract displayed significant anti-alopecia properties in a mouse model, showing potential as an anti-5α-reductase agent for androgenic hair loss.

This study found that lotion containing ethanolic extract of Phyllanthus niruri and 1% menthol enhanced hair growth in white Wistar rats more than a formula without menthol, although not significantly.

This study documented clinical cases of dermatophytosis in two free-ranging southern chamois in the Eastern Pyrenees, with Trichophyton mentagrophytes identified in both animals.

This case report identified cutaneous epitheliotropic T-cell lymphoma in a 3-year-old male sugar glider after skin biopsies, highlighting the need for thorough diagnostic evaluations in exotic pets.

This study discovered two new species of mites in the hair follicles of squirrel monkeys from South America, potentially causing follicle damage due to secondary infection.

This study observed that the thinning and structural abnormalities in monilethrix-affected hair occur at the internodes due to possible periodic dysfunction of the hair matrix, particularly in the cortex.

This study found that the aerial roots of Ficus benghalensis Linn contain flavonoids, phenolics, and saponins, with an ethyl acetate extract being particularly rich in flavonoids.

This study reports the first identification of 'Candidatus Phytoplasma aurantifolia' in the invasive weed Eclipta prostrata in Taiwan, linked to symptoms such as branch proliferation and phyllody.

This case report describes white piedra infection of the scalp hair with a synergistic bacterial infection in two US native sisters, highlighting its relevance in diagnosing scalp hair concretions despite its rarity in North America.

This study describes a new mite species from marmots in a city park in Washington, noting that infested marmots displayed significant hair loss and tissue abnormalities.

This study identified a novel mutation and confirmed a previous mutation in the LIPH gene in a woman with autosomal recessive woolly hair, expanding the mutation spectrum for this condition.

This study found that combining prodigiosin and essential oil from Thuja orientalis leaves showed a synergistic effect against the 3rd larva stage of Cx. pipiens, significantly reducing acetylcholine esterase activity and altering midgut pH, compared to untreated larvae.

This study found that a bacterial endophyte from Zea nicaraguensis effectively targets and colonizes plant root hair cells, promoting growth and solubilizing insoluble phosphorus for nutrient uptake.

This report details a rare case of favus in Japan, identifying Trichophyton schoenleinii in a 63-year-old woman through DNA sequencing, who was successfully treated with oral terbinafine and topical luliconazole.

This study found that Pleuropterus cilinervis extracts and animal milk fermented with Lactobacillus rhamnosus promoted hair growth in mice, suggesting potential applications in hair loss treatments.

In this study, the researchers found that female Pieris brassicae butterflies have more "B-type" chemoreceptory hairs on their forelegs, which may be involved in selecting oviposition sites through detecting mustard oil glucosides.

This study found that lotion containing ethanolic extract of Phyllanthus niruri promoted hair growth in rats, with the addition of 1% menthol enhancing this effect compared to the extract alone.

This study found that the combination of L. sericata secretions and A. sintenisii extract significantly enhanced wound healing compared to each agent alone or Furacin®, suggesting a synergistic effect.

In this study involving a murine skin infection model, researchers found that the Trichophyton mentagrophytes strain TIMM 2789, specific to rodents, induced typical symptoms of superficial dermatophytosis, while revealing that the fungal gene SUB6 is not essential for virulence.

In this case study, dermoscopy successfully visualized head lice and their eggs on a 19-year-old girl's scalp, aiding in the diagnosis of pediculosis capitis, which was then treated with sulfur ointment and hair shaving.

Linalool in fragrances may harm hair follicles and contribute to hair loss.

This study found that 90% of African pygmy hedgehogs at Golden Dhonje Farm in Bogor District were affected by potential zoonotic fungi, including Scopulariopsis sp. and Penicillium sp.

This study reports the first known case of linear lichen planopilaris following Blaschko's lines in a nonfacial region.

This report presents a rare case of lichen spinulosus in a 52-year-old woman, featuring hyperkeratotic follicular papules and a dense lymphohistiocytic infiltrate in affected skin areas.

This study found that hypaphorine alters cytoskeletal organization in Eucalyptus globulus root hairs, contributing to reduced root hair elongation by possibly disrupting vesicle delivery needed for growth.

This study characterizes the secondary hair follicles in the Lanyu pig, an indigenous breed sharing similarities with human vellus hair follicles, suggesting its relevance as a model for researching hair follicle-mediated skin regeneration and enhancing translation to human wound healing.
