The conclusion is that understanding how feathers and hairs pattern can help in developing hair regeneration treatments.
research Self-Organizing Hair Peg-Like Structures From Dissociated Skin Progenitor Cells: New Insights for Human Hair Follicle Organoid Engineering and Turing Patterning in an Asymmetric Morphogenetic Field
Researchers created early-stage hair-like structures from skin cells, showing how these cells can self-organize, but more is needed for complete hair growth.
research Distinct Mechanisms Underlie Pattern Formation in the Skin and Skin Appendages
Different processes create patterns in skin and things like hair and feathers.
research Integument Pattern Formation Involves Genetic and Epigenetic Controls: Feather Arrays Simulated by Digital Hormone Models
Feather patterns form through genetic and epigenetic controls, with cells self-organizing into periodic patterns.
research Order From Disorder: Self-Organization In Mammalian Hair Patterning
Hair patterns in mice are controlled by both a global system dependent on Fz6 and a local self-organizing system.
research Morpho-Regulation in Diverse Chicken Feather Formation: Integrating Branching Modules and Sex Hormone-Dependent Morpho-Regulatory Modules
Sex hormones, especially estradiol, can change chicken feather shapes and colors.
research Neuroma of Radial Nerve After Surgical Correction of Secondary Lesion of Humeral Diaphyseal Fracture
Surgery to fix a broken upper arm bone can sometimes lead to nerve damage.
research Hairline Design in Hair Replacement Surgery
Dr. Michael Beehner recommends a personalized, careful approach to hairline design in hair replacement surgery for a natural look.
research Lip And Perioral Reconstruction
Reconstruct lips with proper planning, templates, and revisions for appearance and function.
research Tactile Innervation Densities Across the Whole Body
Young adults have about 230,000 tactile nerve fibers, decreasing 5-8% per decade with age.
research The Role of AUTS2 in Neurodevelopment and Human Evolution
The AUTS2 gene is linked to neurological disorders and may affect human brain development and cognition.
research The Aesthetics of Follicular Transplantation
The document concludes that good cosmetic outcomes in hair transplantation depend on the surgeon's artistic skill and careful planning.
research Burn Reconstruction: The Problems, Techniques, and Applications
Burn reconstruction improves with new techniques, materials, and tissue engineering.
research Defining Hair Follicles in the Age of Stem Cell Bioengineering
The study found that bioengineered hair follicles work when using cells from the same species but have issues when combining human and mouse cells.
research The Fusion of Craniofacial Reconstruction and Microsurgery
Combining microsurgery with craniofacial reconstruction improves aesthetic results and reduces harm to the area where tissue is taken from.
research Clinical Case Notes: Tamoxifen Optic Neuropathy
A boy with chromosome 13q deletion syndrome developed eye cancer, a woman with breast cancer lost vision due to a rare side-effect of her treatment, a man's vision worsened after using a hair loss drug, and two rare disorders were discussed. Optical Coherence Tomography is useful for diagnosing and monitoring these conditions.
research Clinical Case Notes: Intraorbital Ophthalmic Artery Aneurysms
Eye exams are crucial for kids with 13q deletion syndrome, tamoxifen can cause vision loss, Propecia may lead to cataracts, Lipoid Proteinosis causes skin bumps, and OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.
research Superficial Temporal Artery Flap for Reconstruction of Complex Facial Defects: A New Algorithm
The superficial temporal artery flap is a reliable method for reconstructing complex facial defects with minimal complications.
research Rhombencephalosynapsis Presenting Antenatally with Ventriculomegaly/Hydrocephalus in a Likely Case of Gomez–López-Hernández Syndrome
A 2-year-old boy with a rare brain malformation may have Gomez–López-Hernández syndrome.
research Management of High-Energy Avulsive Ballistic Facial Injury: A Review of the Literature and Algorithmic Approach
Early surgical treatment for severe facial injuries from high-energy impacts leads to better recovery.
research Simultaneous Determination of Quercitrin, Afzelin, Amentoflavone, Hinokiflavone in Rat Plasma by UFLC-MS-MS and Its Application to the Pharmacokinetics of Platycladus Orientalis Leaves Extract
Researchers developed a method to measure plant compounds in rat blood and found they are quickly absorbed and eliminated within 36 hours.
research Fine Structure and Immunocytochemistry of Monotreme Hairs, with Emphasis on the Inner Root Sheath and Trichohyalin-Based Cornification During Hair Evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research Clinical Case Notes: Lipoid Proteinosis - A Rare Disorder with Pathognomonic Lid Lesions
A baby boy with 13q deletion syndrome had eye cancer, a woman's vision improved after stopping a breast cancer drug, a man developed cataracts from using Propecia, and a rare skin disorder called Lipoid Proteinosis was discussed. Also, a tool called OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.
research Clinical Case Notes: Propecia-Associated Bilateral Cataract
Taking Propecia might lead to the development of cataracts.
