This study reports that flaky skin mice exhibit skin and nail features that closely resemble human psoriasis vulgaris, suggesting they may serve as a natural model for this condition.

This study observed that Yuyi hairless mice develop alopecia shortly after birth, with the skin eventually thickening and forming folds, and hair failing to regrow as they age.

This study found that mice with a disrupted TGFα gene display a curly whisker-coat phenotype, similar to waved-1 mice, suggesting TGFα's crucial role in skin architecture and hair development.

This study in mice suggests that defects in hair follicles with mesenchymal TSC2 disruption may result from an impaired TGFβ1 response, indicating a potential novel treatment approach for tuberous sclerosis complex.

This case report describes a successful eyebrow reconstruction using hair follicle micrografts in a patient with dormant keratosis pilaris atrophicans, demonstrating potential for this technique in similar conditions.

This article discusses how the balding scalp's exposure to UV and near-infrared light may accelerate aging, with changes detectable under ultraviolet light; it presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that human skin grafted onto certain immunodeficient mice resulted in proliferative scars with characteristics similar to human hypertrophic scars, suggesting these models may better represent the condition's natural history.

This study presents the first reported case of woolly hair nevus appearing during adolescence, with significant improvement observed 5 years later and structural changes in the hair documented.

This study reports an abnormal onion-shaped swelling on the hair shafts of some Abyssinian cats, affecting the appearance of their coat, though skin and hair structures appear normal under the microscope.

This study found that new hair follicles can form in scarred skin of injured mice, challenging the long-held belief that mammalian hair follicles cannot regenerate de novo.

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 study identified TSC2 as an important regulator of hair follicle morphogenesis and patterning, with Tsc2cKO mice showing altered hair patterns and frequencies compared to controls.

This article discusses two donor site reharvesting methods that may allow further hair restoration sessions and improve donor scar aesthetics but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that human hair follicles with a completely destroyed bulb can regenerate after being grafted onto immunodeficient mice, entering a shortened dystrophic telogen followed by anagen phase.

This study describes a family with loose anagen hair syndrome associated with macular dystrophy, suggesting this combination may represent a new disease entity among ectodermal dysplasias.

Using combined hair restoration methods can effectively treat severe scalp wrinkling.

This case report details a 37-year-old woman with pityriasis rubra pilaris, highlighting scarring alopecia and widespread hyperkeratotic lesions despite various treatments.

A young boy's uncombable hair is due to a rare genetic condition that usually improves over time.

This case report describes a 26-year-old female with linear morphea and unique alopecia characterized by atrophic follicular remnants, resembling telogen follicles but indicating permanent alopecia, unlike typical findings in morphea-related alopecia.

This study observed that aged dogs exhibit atrophy of the epidermis, appendages, and dermis, along with variable skin changes and increased dermal pigmentation, but lack senile elastosis seen in humans.

This study found that when human hair follicles were grafted onto mice, they progressed through dystrophic stages and returned to normal growth, with stem cells aiding in recovery.

This pilot study found that examining changes in scalp scales after scraping may effectively distinguish seborrheic dermatitis associated with androgenetic alopecia from fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution.

This case report describes a 39-year-old female with cutis verticis gyrata and cicatricial alopecia, emphasizing the need for further understanding of the potential genetic associations and underlying mechanisms.

This study reports a case of hair loss and skin changes in goats due to Scopulariopsis brevicaulis infection, successfully treated with itraconazole and D-biotin in a sick goat kid.

This study found that dense-packing hair grafting is a simple, safe, and effective method for restoring scarring alopecia, with high patient satisfaction and significant graft survival rates reported.

This study identified distinct microscopic characteristics of acne scars, including inflammatory infiltrates and insufficient collagen deposition, suggesting that treatment should consider these histopathological findings and employ combination therapy.

This case report details a rare instance of scurvy linked to anorexia nervosa in a 48-year-old woman, characterized by atypical symptoms and successfully treated with vitamin C supplements.

This study describes how dogs can suffer from dermatological issues due to arthropod parasites, notably mange caused by Sarcoptes mites, which leads to skin irritation, hair loss, and can escalate to severe conditions if untreated.

This article discusses a strip donor harvesting technique for hair transplantation and reports no clinical results; the author highlights the importance of anatomical knowledge for successful scar excision.
