β-catenin affects hair growth and can lead to tumors, needing more research for better understanding.

This study identified a mutation in the keratin 71 gene that causes curly hair in certain rats, advancing our understanding of hair formation.

This study identified mutations in the SNRPE gene that may disrupt hair growth, linking a spliceosome component to hereditary hair loss disorders.

This study found that spleens of black C57BL/6 mice contain eumelanin, with properties different from skin and hair melanin, and may originate from skin melanin transported by immune cells.

This study found that the hHa1-t protein variant, caused by a genetic polymorphism in the hHa1 gene, forms functional keratin filaments despite lacking a complete nonhelical tail domain, explaining the absence of a pathological hair phenotype.

This study found that the ablation of Esrp1 and Esrp2 disrupts epithelial tight junctions by affecting Arhgef11 isoform expressions, highlighting a potential mechanistic link between splicing alterations and epithelial barrier defects.

In this case study, a girl with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets had a novel mutation in the VDR gene that affected hair cycling without causing total alopecia, suggesting ligand-independent VDR function in hair cycling.

This study observed that split-thickness skin grafts for dorsal inlay urethroplasty successfully treated 93% of patients with recurrent anterior urethral stricture who could not undergo buccal mucosal grafting.

This letter to the editor compares the efficacy and safety of bimatoprost 0.03% with minoxidil 3% for eyebrow enhancement but does not report any study results.

This study found that Secretory Phospholipase A2-IIA (sPLA2-IIA) promotes proliferation through JNK/c-Jun signaling, distinctively affecting normal stem cells and cancer cells, suggesting it as a potential target for cancer treatment.

This case study reports the first known instance of adult Kawasaki's disease presenting with highly elevated serum ferritin levels and splenomegaly, emphasizing its consideration in differential diagnoses for adults with persistent rash, fever, and specific clinical features.

This article contains information about journal subscriptions and does not report any research findings.

This study found that splenic melanosis in C57BL/6 mice is associated with synchronized skin melanization during hair cycles, but decreases with age.

This study identified a novel splice site mutation in the LIPH gene associated with autosomal recessive woolly hair, contributing to understanding the genetic basis of this condition.

In this study, overexpression of secretory phospholipase A2 Group-IIA in transgenic mice led to depletion of hair follicle stem cells and increased differentiation, linked to changes in histone modifications.

In this randomized controlled trial, occipital donor sites for split-thickness skin grafts showed superior re-epithelialization, reduced pain, fewer complications, and better cosmetic outcomes compared to femoral donor sites.

Scalp-to-scalp skin grafts quickly heal and hide well under regrown hair, making them good for repairing large scalp defects.

In this study, researchers found that cyclophosphamide treatment unexpectedly reduced splenic melanin deposition in a murine model, whereas this effect was down-regulated more by the normal and dystrophic catagen phase of the hair cycle.

This study identified a novel SCF mRNA splice variant in white merino sheep skin, which may play a role in hair follicle melanogenesis.

This study identified a novel homozygous mutation in the 5'-UTR of the POMC gene, suggesting a new molecular mechanism for the syndrome of adrenal insufficiency, obesity, and red hair.

This study found that applying minced residual skin grafts to donor sites significantly reduced healing time and improved scar quality compared to untreated sites.

This study identified a splicing-site deletion in the DCAF17 gene associated with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome in a large consanguineous pedigree, leading to typical phenotypic features.

This study found that the proposed LC-MS/MS method accurately quantified the drug content in split tablets of finasteride and terbinafine, revealing significant variability and suggesting that non-scored tablets should not be split.

In this study, patients experienced scarless regenerative healing of scalp donor wounds, and the researchers highlighted that proper wound dressing can prevent alopecia and scarring in infected wounds, suggesting the potential of scalp skin grafts for optimal healing.

This study found that using autologous ultra-thin split-thickness skin grafts from the scalp with the DermaBlade tool led to rapid wound healing, minimal complications, and improved cosmetic outcomes for 90% of patients with lower extremity lesions, without causing scarring or alopecia.

This study found that treating permed hair with diethylene glycol monoethylether significantly reduced the formation of split ends, making it similar to untreated normal hair in terms of split ends generation.

This study examines how thirteenth-century French authors used hair and animal traits to interrogate social identities and gender roles, reflecting broader religious, political, and cultural discourses of the time.

In this study, low concentrations of DMSO were found to decrease androgen receptor expression and inhibit the migration of prostate cancer cells, suggesting potential as an anticancer therapy.

This study reports that the candle flame technique "velaterapia," popular in Brazil for addressing split ends, can damage hair fibers due to bubble formation at high temperatures, despite thermal protectors providing some cuticle protection.

In this self-controlled comparative study of 16 women with Female Pattern Hair Loss, MMP® with Minoxidil showed a better response in the parietal-vertex regions in less advanced cases compared to standard Minoxidil treatment, though overall effectiveness was similar.
