This review discusses advancements in artificial skin for wound treatment and reports no new clinical findings; the authors highlight the potential of new biomaterials to enhance future skin replacement therapies.

This study reports that transgene insertion in homozygous transgenic mice causes irreversible hair loss and impaired immune function, linked to interruption of the hairless locus on Chromosome 14.

In this study, a significant negative correlation was observed between the 2D:4D digit ratio and maxillary sinus volume in men, suggesting an androgenic hormone influence on sinus volume development.

This review discusses current strategies and materials in tissue engineering for skin regeneration, emphasizing design approaches and suggesting directions for future research; it reports no new clinical findings.

This case report highlights a rare occurrence of squamous cell carcinoma developing at the site of synthetic hair implantation many years later, emphasizing the need for vigilance when examining chronic scalp lesions in patients with such procedures.

In this study, naked mole-rats demonstrated unique skin and hair follicle innervation features compared to other species, suggesting adaptations to their subterranean environment and poikilothermy.

This review found that the clinical results of L-PRF as a grafting material in maxillary sinus augmentation were mixed, with some studies reporting positive effects and others finding no significant impact.

In this review, researchers examined the molecular diversity and expression patterns of major skin appendage proteins, like keratins and EDC proteins, in tetrapods, highlighting recent findings in reptiles and birds and identifying knowledge gaps for future research.

This case report highlights a 17-year-old female with Kartagener's syndrome and ectodermal anomalies, such as alopecia and dental issues, suggesting a possible novel syndromic variant, with genetic testing recommended to distinguish it from a dual diagnosis.

This paper reviews hidradenitis suppurativa, comparing its clinical and histopathological characteristics to acne, questioning the proposed link to terminal hair follicles, and reports no new results.

This study found that the systemic wrinkled skin phenotype in Xiang pigs involves gene expression changes and genetic variations associated with oxidative stress and extracellular matrix components, resembling features seen in Shar-Pei dogs.

This review outlines the histological structures of the skin, highlighting species and regional differences in dermal absorption and obstacles encountered in toxicological assessments due to epidermal thickness variability, contact dermatitis reactions, and stem cell vulnerabilities.

This article discusses the structures surrounding hair follicles and introduces aspects like follicle groups and the dermal sheath, but it reports no new research findings.

Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.

This study confirms the presence of large structural variations in the genome of Nellore cattle, which may contribute to their environmental adaptation to tropical regions.

This study found that the human hairline is closely linked to several cranial, cerebral, and vascular structures, enabling precise localization of key neuroanatomical landmarks, which could assist in planning neurosurgical procedures.

This study observed that, in rats, modeling sinus lifting and septoplasty led to increased sympathetic nervous system activity and metabolic shifts in the early postoperative period due to inflammation.

This study reveals that somatosensory neurons in mouse skin exhibit structural plasticity during hair-follicle regeneration, which may temporarily impair the reliability of encoding gentle touch.

In this study, researchers used synchrotron X-ray imaging to examine rat vibrissa follicles, finding that despite variations in vibrissa length and follicle size, certain sensory structures remain consistent, suggesting specialized roles in sensory processing depending on the vibrissa type.

This overview examines the biology, origin, structure, and function of various cells and structures, such as the blood-retinal barrier and Merkel cells, and discusses their roles in disease pathogenesis, along with recent findings related to the lymph nodes' paracortex.

This study developed finite element models to examine skin's biomechanical properties, finding that structural heterogeneities like Rete ridges and hair follicles create distinct stress and strain patterns that may influence mechanosensation and skin integrity.

This study concluded that sodium lauryl sulfate is very toxic to hair, damaging its structure, while natural conditioners help protect hair integrity and improve consistency and shine.

This study found that Hoxc13 mutations in mice cause defects in hair, nail, and tongue structures, with the most noticeable issue being brittle hair leading to alopecia.

Mouse Scube3 affects teeth, tongue, vibrissae, and eye development, but not facial structure or limb growth.

This study re-examined the structure of lanceolate endings in rat vibrissae, suggesting that their apical cones may function as a transducer site for detecting hair movements.

This study describes unique anatomical characteristics of the skin and hair structures in the silver marmoset, including features such as thin epidermis, specialized nerve end-organs, and distinctive gland compositions.

The document recommends a multidisciplinary approach and experience sharing to advance facial feminization surgery as a medical field.

This article discusses the surgical technique of "deroofing" for hidradenitis suppurativa, highlighting its advantages over traditional methods but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the importance of dietary management as part of treatment.
