This study examines the structure of the "sinuskissen" in cat hair follicles, revealing it as a loose connective tissue susceptible to changes in aqueous flow, and describes its variable three-dimensional shapes.

In this study, researchers reported two cases of the rare and benign follicular tumor called panfolliculoma, highlighting its differentiation across all hair follicle components, which is distinct from similar conditions like trichofolliculoma.

This study observed that hepatocyte-like cells in canine circumanal glands are distinct entities that develop from hair follicle sheaths and later appear within sebaceous glands, without forming typical exocrine ducts.

In this study, researchers observed that a hidden scalp condition could contribute to acne keloidalis nuchae and potentially other primary cicatricial alopecias, impacting their diagnosis and treatment.

This case study diagnosed a cat with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, confirmed by specific hormonal tests and post-mortem findings of adrenal hyperplasia and a pituitary adenoma.

In this study, researchers found that neonate hairs have a distinct microstructure with no medulla and smaller hair follicles compared to adult hairs.

This case report highlights that CCCA can present with multifocal patchy hair loss in younger men of African descent, suggesting the need for careful evaluation when diagnosing atypical alopecia patterns.

This case study reports that a 9-year-old Nepalese boy with tinea capitis successfully recovered with systemic antifungal therapy, though experienced focal alopecia without recurrence at a two-year follow-up.

This case report describes a patient with pseudopelade affecting both the scalp and beard area, highlighting the unusual presentation of a rare hair disorder.

A rare benign scalp tumor in an infant requires surgical removal.

This case report describes a 5-day-old male infant with a constellation of symptoms, including leptomeningeal angiomatosis, hair follicle nevus, and congenital alopecia, potentially representing a novel neurocutaneous syndrome.

This report describes an unusual case of proliferating trichilemmal cyst with trichoepitheliomatous change in a young woman, differing from its typical presentation in elderly women.

This article discusses the crucial role of root hairs in water and nutrient uptake from soil and reports no new findings.

This case report describes an instance of autosomal recessive uncombable hair syndrome caused by maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 1.

This report describes a case of colonic adenomatous polyposis in a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, highlighting a deviation from the typically hamartomatous polyps and suggesting a need for further study.

This study reported a rare case where a pheochromocytoma produced ACTH, leading to cyclic Cushing syndrome, and underscores the importance of considering this possibility in cases of ACTH-dependent hypercortisolism with an adrenal mass.

In this study, researchers reported a 0.11% occurrence of congenital triangular alopecia, recommending surgical treatment for women but not for men due to later potential development of androgenic alopecia.

The researchers reported a case of a neotropical porcupine co-infected with Brazilian porcupine poxvirus and Toxoplasma gondii, suggesting the need for further investigation into the impact of this interaction.

This case report describes a 10-year-old patient with a rare trichilemmal cyst in the cervical region, highlighting the importance of close monitoring due to potential risks of malignancy.

This study reports that a 190,000 molecular weight protein, identified as trichohyalin, may play a matrix role in the development of inner root sheaths in hair follicles.

This study found that involucrin likely plays a key role in forming the cornified material of the medulla and inner root sheath of human hair, contributing to its mechanical strength.

This case report describes a six-year-old girl with hypertrichosis cubiti, characterized by excess terminal hair growth around the elbows, and notes treatment with over-the-counter depilatory creams and shaving to address aesthetic concerns.

A new method can better diagnose eruptive vellus hair cysts.

Crickets have genetically controlled hair plates that help them sense and move their antennae.

This case report highlights the clinical and trichoscopic diagnosis of congenital triangular alopecia in a 9-month-old boy and notes the condition's typical unresponsiveness to traditional treatments.

In this study, researchers used synchrotron X-ray imaging to examine rat vibrissa follicles, finding that despite variations in vibrissa length and follicle size, certain sensory structures remain consistent, suggesting specialized roles in sensory processing depending on the vibrissa type.

Thorough clinical examination is crucial for diagnosing unusual alopecia.

This study found that serlopitant may reduce pruritus intensity compared to placebo in patients with chronic pruritus of unknown origin, though evidence is of low certainty and effects on other outcomes are unclear.

This paper reviews plica polonica, a rare hair disorder linked historically to poor hygiene and now to severe self-neglect or medical conditions, and outlines various treatment and preventive strategies but reports no new findings.

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.
