This study suggests that the patchy thickening and reddish discoloration in rabbit skin during the hair cycle may be due to large anagen-phase hair follicles compressing the dermis and increased blood vessels causing redness.

This article discusses the perspectives of Western and Chinese medicine on alopecia areata and proposes that blood stasis may be a key factor, recommending treatments focused on blood circulation.

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.

In this study, Carthamus caeruleus root juice exhibited in vitro anti-inflammatory effects by stabilizing human erythrocyte membranes and inhibiting albumin denaturation, as well as showing potential inhibition of COX-2 through in silico analysis; however, further research is needed to confirm efficacy and mechanisms.

This study found that glutathione deficiency affects lateral root and root hair responses to indole butyric acid in plants, but not to indole acetic acid, indicating its role in auxin pathway regulation.

This study reported that etretinate treatment leads to increased hair shedding due to a sustained decrease in anagen duration, with an arrest at the onset of anagen and a follicular anchorage defect in telogen contributing to alopecia.

This study introduced a new adaptive microrhizotron for non-destructive observation of pepper root traits, finding that specific installation patterns significantly enhanced root interception probability while effectively measuring root architecture for plant research.

This study observed phenotypic diversity in hair loss among Japanese individuals homozygous for the LIPH c.736T>A mutation and suggests that differences in hair thickness may contribute to varying severities.

This study found that nanoparticles can penetrate the skin, but artifacts produced during specimen preparation complicate accurate observation, and proposed a method for reducing errors in imaging quantum dots as tracers.

This case report highlights that asymptomatic domestic cats can transmit Microsporum canis, leading to tinea capitis in humans, as seen in a four-year-old girl in the study.

This case report identifies a potential new syndrome characterized by trichoepitheliomas and alopecia, which may be associated with myasthenia gravis.

Radiation-induced hair loss may be caused by hair growth stopping and inflammation in blood vessels.

This text provides no research findings; it is a website's navigation and policy information for JAMA publications.

A specific gene mutation causes woolly hair and hair loss.

A mutation in the KRT74 gene causes tightly curled hair.

This study identified a nonsense mutation in the Sgkl gene as the cause of defective hair growth in a mutant mouse strain, implicating the SGKL signaling pathway in hair development.

This article discusses the complexities in diagnosing hair shaft disorders and the potential insights hair microscopy can provide, without reporting new clinical findings.

The conclusion suggests that treatments targeting root causes of chronic diseases may be developed by focusing on gene expression and lifestyle factors.

This study reported that Panax ginseng extract significantly inhibited DKK-1-induced catagen-like changes in human hair follicles by promoting cell proliferation and reducing apoptosis, suggesting it may help mitigate hair loss associated with DKK-1.

This study found that arctiin, a compound from Arctium lappa, demonstrated protective effects against oxidative stress-induced dysfunction in human hair dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential therapeutic use for alopecia.

In this study, the researchers observed that post-radiation hair follicle repair in 3D architecture occurs through independent, long-range cell movements along the basal surface, resembling 2D healing processes.

This study suggests that topically applied fusidic acid may penetrate only the most superficial layers of canine skin but can reach sufficient concentrations to potentially treat infections caused by pathogenic staphylococci.

This study reports that the microneedle therapy system has demonstrated significant effects on acne, acne scars, and hair loss treatment without serious side effects in Korean studies over the past decade.

This review discusses insights into the role of lipase H in controlling hair form and texture, emphasizing genetic mutations linked to autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, and reports no new experimental results.

In this case report, researchers detailed a 22-year-old Turkish woman diagnosed with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis (ARWH/H), linked to a mutation in the LIPH gene, resulting in sparse, poorly growing, curly hair, highlighting the need for genetic consideration in similar hair conditions.

In this study, disruptions in phospholipase A2 activity in Arabidopsis thaliana significantly impaired the plasma membrane localization of PIN proteins, affecting auxin transport and root development.

This review discusses the association between WNT10A gene variants and various ectodermal disorders, highlighting their clinical relevance in dermatology and dentistry, but reports no new findings.

In this case report, the authors suggest that a novel enhancer element's translocation near the TRPS1 gene may contribute to the TRPS phenotype, expanding understanding of the syndrome's genetic basis.

This case report describes a rare instance of a Chinese Crested dog with leukocyte chimerism, normal female external genitalia, and hormonally active Sertoli cell tumors, demonstrating surgery as a curative treatment option.

This study observed that hair properties vary by ethnicity, influenced by genetic, environmental, and cultural factors, and noted that ethnicity-dependent differences in surface charge and other properties warrant further investigation.
