This article reviews the causes and cultural aspects of traction alopecia in black women and presents a treatment not previously reported, but it offers no new clinical findings.

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 study found significant differences in hair density, non-vellus hair diameter, and percentage of miniaturized hair between normal women and those with female pattern hair loss, particularly in the midscalp and parietal areas.

This study found that 3% peppermint oil significantly enhanced hair growth in C57BL/6 mice, showing increased dermal thickness, follicle number, and follicle depth compared to other treatments.

This study found that Wnt10b promotes melanocyte maturation and pigmentation in the hair bulbs of mice by activating canonical Wnt signaling.

This study observed that in wild snowshoe hares, gene expression patterns during seasonal coat color change show a consistent lag between gene expression and visible coat color changes.

This review discusses rodent models of alopecia areata and suggests they are crucial for understanding the autoimmune mechanisms and potential treatments but reports no new clinical results.

Human hair follicles have a unique metabolism that changes between growth stages and may contribute to baldness.

This study found that in male androgenetic alopecia, the contrast enhanced phototrichogram technique was superior in detecting changes in hair density and thickness compared to other methods.

This study found that early-onset baldness in African-American men is associated with an increased risk of developing prostate cancer and more aggressive tumors, with potential interactions involving age and smoking.

This correspondence highlights a study on early pubertal development in young girls, noting that early pubic hair and breast development in African-American girls is likely due to increased androgen production, not estrogen or exogenous causes.

This review discusses various skin conditions linked with chronic kidney disease and highlights effective treatments but does not provide new clinical results.

This study found that follicular density and various hair growth ratios differ statistically between nonscarring and scarring alopecia, though significant overlap exists due to factors like sample size and scalp variation.

In this study, overexpression of Wnt5a in mice was associated with the elongation of the telogen stage and inhibition of hair growth initiation, suggesting Wnt5a's role in maintaining hair follicle quiescence.

This study suggests that combining testosterone and letrozole may accelerate puberty in boys with constitutional delay by increasing serum androgen bioactivity and facilitating pubertal progression.

This study suggests that Houttuynia cordata extract may promote hair growth by stimulating dermal papilla cell proliferation and extending the anagen phase through enhanced energy metabolism and gene expression changes.

This study found that stable regeneration of pigmented hairs in mice after severe wounding can occur when the wound is made during the anagen stage, influenced by Wnt and Kit signaling pathways.

This study reports that a 14-year-old female rhesus monkey with alopecia universalis was found to have a T-cell-mediated autoimmune disease similar to human alopecia areata universalis.

PRSS35 enzyme may help start skin tumors and could be a target for cancer treatment.

This study found that epimorphin is closely linked to developing hair follicles in human fetuses, suggesting it plays a significant role in hair follicle morphogenesis.

In this study, oleanolic acid was found to enhance hair follicle growth and promote hair matrix cell proliferation via the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in a human hair follicle organ culture model.

This study suggests that ovarian cycle-related progesterone and neurosteroids regulate α2-subunit expression of GABA-A receptors in the hippocampus through a pathway independent of progesterone receptors, potentially affecting brain conditions linked to the menstrual cycle.

In this study, human placenta extract was observed to enhance the hair-growth-promoting effects of minoxidil and stimulate earlier and prolonged anagen phases in a mouse model.

This review discusses the hair eclipse phenomenon in hair cycling and the potential roles of synchronizers and microinflammation in its occurrence, reporting no new empirical findings.

Minoxidil caused red hair to grow on a man's temples.

This review discusses the current knowledge on using special and immunohistochemical stains for diagnosing hair disorders, concluding that no stains are recommended for routine use in hair pathology.

This study found that inducing hair follicles into the anagen stage by plucking significantly enhances antibody responses in mice after topical DNA vaccine application, compared to retinoic acid or TPA treatments.

Excimer laser therapy can be an alternative for treating superficial morphea when topical steroids don't work.

In this study, reduced hair density, diameter, and follicle miniaturization were key characteristics of female pattern hair loss in Southern Chinese women, with occipital and temporal sites also affected.

This study found that the scarring folliculitis type of acne inversa in the Chinese population is associated with specific histopathological features and a higher prevalence of smoking and occupational exposure.
