This study found that beard hair medulla cells express an unexpected range of keratins, showing variability and promiscuous behavior in keratin interactions distinct from other hair follicle cells.

This case report describes a newly identified condition called loose anagen hair of childhood, characterized by easily pluckable hair in two young boys, with variable duration and no scalp inflammation or scarring.

Treatments for melanin disorders exist, but more effective options needed.

This study reported successful repigmentation without scarring in patients with localized and segmental vitiligo after epidermal grafting, but the Koebner phenomenon hindered similar results in some with generalized vitiligo.

This study found that PRO 160/120 and Finasteride showed similar effectiveness in improving urinary symptoms and quality of life in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia over 48 weeks.

This study found that nanoparticles did not permeate intact rat skin but could penetrate skin that had been artificially punctured, primarily through grooves or hair follicles.

This study found that males have significantly longer hair on their thighs compared to females, mainly due to a longer anagen phase and a greater rate of growth.

This study found that women with PCOS reported higher overall psychological distress, but there was no significant link between their perceived hirsutism and this distress.

This study found that light stimulation of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells in the eyes can activate hair follicle stem cells through a neural circuit involving the sympathetic nervous system.

This review concluded that FDA-cleared low-level laser therapy devices are safe and effective for patients with male and female pattern hair loss who do not respond to or tolerate standard treatments.

This study observed that skin pigmentation significantly attenuates bioluminescent signals in C57Bl/6 mice, complicating quantitative optical imaging and requiring consideration in experimental design.

This chapter reviews keratins in skin epithelia, including their roles in cellular function and disease, and reports no new experimental results.

Human hair's ability to get wet is complex and can change with treatments, damage, and environment.

This study suggests that activating retinoic acid signalling can inhibit Wnt signalling and induce regression in certain skin tumors, providing potential therapeutic strategies for tumor regression.

This study reported that a low color temperature light (1900 K) may have positive effects on melatonin secretion, eye protection, wound healing, and hair regeneration compared to higher temperature lights.

This article reviews factors affecting follicular unit extraction, emphasizing the need to tailor procedures to individual patient characteristics, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that the signaling peptide CLE40 and receptor proteins CLV2 and CRN regulate root meristem differentiation through two distinct, antagonistic pathways activated by CLE40 in a dose-dependent manner.

This research suggests that the barley protein RACB supports cell polarity functions rather than interfering with immunity, as it aids nucleus positioning during fungal attack rather than affecting early immune responses.

This review discusses current medical and surgical treatments for androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the use of finasteride and minoxidil for men and the role of hair transplantation techniques, without providing new clinical results.

This study found that hydroxysafflor yellow A-rich Carthamus tinctorius extract promoted hair growth and gene expression linked to hair proliferation in both cell cultures and mouse models.

This study found that using monoolein cubic phase nanoparticles with an entrapped hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin/minoxidil complex increased minoxidil skin permeation, but minoxidil retention in the skin was higher with a traditional solution.

This study found that fullerene nanomaterials can significantly enhance hair growth and increase hair follicle numbers in both shaved and bald mouse models, as well as in cultured human skin sections.

This study found that the moisture content of human hair significantly influences the type of fracture under tensile loading, with low or high humidity levels leading to smooth fractures and intermediate humidity resulting in step fractures.

This review discusses recent surgical and medical advancements in hair restoration techniques but reports no new clinical results.

The researchers reported that in hairless mice, epidermal cell division orientations and epidermal thickness varied by body site, with dorsal and ear epidermis primarily dividing parallel to the basement membrane, unlike hind paw and tail epidermis.

This study reports that structural abnormalities in the inner root sheath of hair follicles may cause the hair shaft to be loosely attached in patients with loose anagen hair syndrome.

This study found that miniaturization of hair is present in some women with androgenetic alopecia, but diagnosis may also be based on differences in hair shaft diameter between scalp regions.

This study found that minoxidil nanoparticles increased drug delivery to hair follicles and improved hair growth more effectively in mice than conventional minoxidil formulations.

This study found that linseed oil, rich in flavonoids and terpenoids, significantly improved burn wound healing in terms of faster contraction, reduced inflammation, and enhanced tissue regeneration compared to other treatments, without adverse effects.

New skin substitutes for treating severe burns and chronic wounds are being developed, but a permanent solution for deep wounds is not yet available commercially.
