In this study, SCOBY kombucha gel significantly accelerated incision wound healing in mice, particularly with a 12% concentration, as shown by a notable reduction in wound size compared to lower concentrations and controls.

This study found that hair curvature in merino wool is influenced by differences in cell type length rather than the proportions of orthocortical and paracortical cells.

Lustre mutant sheep have normal hair structure and proteins but differ in felting properties.

This study reports that Korean adolescents with androgenetic alopecia tend to have milder symptoms than adults and a higher prevalence of family history of alopecia.

This study explored proteomics to investigate protein changes during protein synthesis and keratinization in maturing wool fiber, but the relationship to fibre development remains largely unknown.

This study found that the administration of the mutant BRAF inhibitor dabrafenib in patients with metastatic melanoma was associated with various skin lesions, including keratinocytic proliferation that sometimes showed low-grade malignancy features.

In this study, male-pattern baldness was strongly associated with a higher risk of keratinocyte cancers, particularly squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma, likely due to increased sun exposure on the scalp rather than androgen levels.

This study suggests that the InlB321/15 protein may accelerate wound healing by increasing cell proliferation and reducing wound closure time in both cell culture and mouse models.

This study found that straight crimp mutant wool differs from crimpy wool in the layout of cortical cells and the relative proportions of keratin and keratin-associated proteins.

This study found that dermal papilla and peribulbar dermal sheath cup cells in mice can both induce hair follicle formation, suggesting they may have similar functional roles in hair growth.

This study found that videodermoscopy enhances diagnostic accuracy for scalp and hair disorders beyond simple clinical inspection and reveals novel disease features that could improve clinical understanding.

This review discusses the dermoscopic features of common hair and scalp disorders and reports no new clinical results, aiming to assist dermatologists in diagnosing conditions like tinea capitis and alopecia areata.

Small white dots on the scalp seen with a dermoscope correspond to sweat ducts and vary with different hair disorders.

This article reviews the use of trichoscopy for diagnosing common hair and scalp diseases and introduces a new classification for specific skin surface abnormalities, without presenting new clinical results.

This study found that 'black dots' seen under trichoscopy are not specific to alopecia areata and may occur in various other hair and scalp conditions.

In this study, researchers identified two distinct homozygous mutations in the KRT85 gene among consanguineous Pakistani families with pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia, highlighting variations in severity and potential impacts on the K85 protein function.

This article reviews recent trends and developments in dermoscopy, highlighting its expanding use beyond pigmented lesions, and reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews various hair abnormalities observable through trichoscopy in conditions like monilethrix, trichorrhexis nodosa, and ectodermal dysplasias, with no new clinical findings reported.

This review examines the increasing clinical applications of dermoscopy in diagnosing various skin conditions and highlights its potential to improve diagnostic accuracy and reduce unnecessary histologic confirmation.

This study indicates that the Sp6 gene is crucial for the development of skin, teeth, limbs, and lungs in mice, possibly through regulating apoptosis.

In this study, researchers found that L-cysteine interacted electrostatically with anionic ions on the surface of keratin fibers in human hair, reducing the rate of disulfide bond disconnection at pH 9.0.

This study found that in vivo confocal scanning laser microscopy accurately quantifies neogenic hair follicles in mice, producing results similar to histology while avoiding fixation artifacts.

This case report describes a 12-year-old girl diagnosed with monilethrix, characterized by fragile, beaded hair shafts, with no effective treatment currently available.

This report describes a rare scalp condition in children with features similar to tinea capitis but shows negative fungal cultures, and suggests possible slow improvement with griseofulvin in two cases.

This case report indicates that contact dermatitis on the face can result from using a bleaching ointment containing ammonium bisulfite during hair-dyeing.

This article reports that cocaine injections can lead to skin lesions containing talc crystals at the sites of injection.

This study used rapid-freezing immunocytochemistry to successfully map the ultrastructural localization of hair keratins in human scalp hair, primarily finding them in macrofibrils in the cortex and endocuticle.

This case report suggests that exacerbations of alopecia areata in a 40-year-old woman may be associated with sodium tetradecyl sulphate foam sclerotherapy treatments for varicose veins.

This study used multiphoton microscopy to successfully visualize rabbit skin microstructure, highlighting its noninvasive potential for future skin research related to diseases and wound healing.

This review discusses updated guidance on treating scalp ringworm in children, emphasizing newer antifungal drugs, but does not report new clinical results.
