This study found that photoacoustic imaging can effectively measure follicle density and angles, even when follicles are not visible to the eye, providing a promising alternative to traditional photographic examination.

This study concluded that the process of mummification disfigures facial features, making identification challenging, but commercial shrunken heads retain more defining features compared to ceremonial ones.

This paper explores how hair functions as a geographical lens to redefine the body's borders, influencing perceptions of identity and power.

This study found that macroscopic vesiculobullous lesions with epidermal devitalization in dogs are part of the clinical spectrum of canine cutaneous epitheliotropic T-cell lymphoma.

The hair follicle's connective tissue is a key source of a certain collagen in human scalp skin.

This article presents an overview of uncombable hair syndrome, emphasizing its clinical and molecular characteristics and noting systemic manifestations such as neuropsychiatric, ophthalmic, and cardiopulmonary issues.

This review updates on various methods for hair and scalp examination, encompassing non-invasive, semi-invasive, and invasive techniques, and reports no new results.

This study found that dutasteride-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers coated with a stearic acid-chitosan oligomer are stable, less cytotoxic, and suitable for topical delivery to promote hair growth.

This study found that biologically synthesized silver nanoparticle gel demonstrated excellent wound healing efficacy in rats, surpassing both marketed formulations and ionic silver.

In this study, Alox15 knockout mice exhibited disrupted skin integrity and increased inflammation, suggesting that Alox15-mediated resolvin D2 production is crucial for maintaining skin homeostasis by suppressing inflammation.

This study found that excessive heat caused the most significant structural changes in hair from Caucasian and Afro samples, especially when combined with other treatments like bleaching and straightening.

This article discusses concerns and recommendations from a French-speaking andrology society regarding COVID-19's potential impact on men's reproductive health and calls for further research in this area.

This study suggests that specific combinations of human type I and II hair keratins, particularly K35-K85 and K36-K81, have distinct in vitro assembly properties that are significant for macrofibril formation.

In this study, a 3-year-old Japanese child with autosomal recessive woolly hair was found to have a distinctive irregular and rough cuticle on the hair shaft, along with a homozygous pathogenic LIPH variant, suggesting a critical role for genetic analysis in understanding rare hair conditions.

In this study, researchers found that men with androgenetic alopecia had higher obesity-related parameters, such as fat percentage and BMI, compared to healthy controls, but observed no differences in cardiovascular markers like CIMT and EFT.

This study found that Mf-rich-fiber in human hair underwent significantly greater degradation by proteases than Ma-rich-fiber, especially when treated with Proteinase K.

This study found that the methanol extract of Eclipta alba showed dose-dependent hair growth promoting activity in pigmented C57/BL6 mice by influencing the transition from the telogen to anagen phase.

This study observed that eliminating positional error in hair segment analysis can improve understanding of changes in isotopic composition, aiding the identification of pathological conditions and dietary patterns.

This study established a new in vitro culture system that supports the growth and dynamic self-organization of hair follicle stem cells and their progeny, promoting a stable population equilibrium.

This study found that the Pseudomonas sp. T5-6-I strain significantly increased selenium accumulation and root hair density in Brassica oleracea, highlighting its potential for phytoremediation and biofortification.

In this study, lecithin-based microparticle formulations of minoxidil showed enhanced skin penetration and comparable hair growth effectiveness to commercial products in mice, while minimizing skin irritation often seen with standard minoxidil solutions.

This study found that hair proteome profiling and genetically variant peptide identification in hairs remained effective after an explosive blast, indicating potential for forensic human identification despite damage.

This review discusses techniques and models for assessing hair growth activity but reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing the need for standardization and improved animal models.

Innovative methods are reducing animal testing and improving biomedical research.

In this study, primary cilia were found to contribute to meibomian gland enlargement and lipid production, though they are not necessary for normal gland development.

This paper discusses advancements in forensic hair analysis, emphasizing a novel DART–HRMS method that improves the accuracy and efficiency of detecting drug use timelines.

This study introduces a novel non-invasive method called "differential stripping" to quantify the penetration of topically applied substances into hair follicles.

In this study, full-size KRT81 was expressed in both normal breast epithelial and breast cancer cells, and contributed to the migration and invasion abilities of breast cancer cells.

This study found that unsaturated fatty acids are more abundant in the cortex of human hair than on its surface, and steryl glycoside-like lipids may help bind the cuticle to the cortex.

This study found that low-level laser therapy with an 830-nm wavelength most significantly stimulated hair growth in rats, compared to other wavelengths tested.
