This study found that papain/bisulfite disintegrates human hair cuticles by dissolving the endocuticle, potentially accelerated by ethanol's removal of cell membrane material.

This study found that 1% topical minoxidil induced significant hair regrowth in patients with alopecia areata, though it was less effective for those with extensive hair loss such as alopecia totalis and universalis.

This review explores the role of aging-related changes in skin, discussing how impaired skin barrier function may contribute to systemic inflammation, or "inflamm-aging," which in turn could impact the broader decline in organ and tissue function seen in aged individuals.

In this study, the researchers reported that their novel algorithm for hair restoration in dermoscopy images achieved high accuracy and texture preservation, outperforming other techniques in diagnostic accuracy and texture quality measures.

This study found that although progerin expression in mouse skin causes significant nuclear shape changes in keratinocytes, it does not result in alopecia or common skin abnormalities seen in human Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome.

This study observed that autologous bone marrow derived mononuclear cells and follicular stem cells were both safe and effective for improving resistant alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia, with no serious adverse events.

This study found that miniaturization of hair is present in some women with androgenetic alopecia, but diagnosis may also be based on differences in hair shaft diameter between scalp regions.

This review compiles existing data on frontal fibrosing alopecia and highlights the promise of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors as a treatment option, while noting the need for clarity on its cause and progression.

This study developed a niosomal delivery system loaded with tretinoin and bicalutamide, optimized for follicular targeting in acne management, showing promising accumulation in hair follicles in animal models.

This study found that telocytes in human scalp tissue were located around hair follicles and glands and may be involved in skin regeneration and homeostasis.

This study found that individuals with patterned hair loss, both male and female, showed a slower linear hair growth rate compared to controls with hair of equal thickness.

This study found that crossbred lambs fed liquid diets with reconstituted cow's milk initially grew wool without crimp, with crimp resuming two weeks post-weaning.

This report describes two prepubertal children with autoimmune gastritis, highlighting the need to screen paediatric patients with organ-specific autoimmune diseases for co-existing conditions.

This report describes the first known case of diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis in a woman under 40, associated with both metabolic syndrome and polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This study found that transverse sections of scalp biopsies, particularly looking at the anagen:non-anagen hair ratio and presence of pigment casts, effectively distinguish alopecia areata from androgenetic alopecia.

The document explains what healthy skin, nails, and hair look like on an ultrasound.

The document recommends careful planning and techniques for successful punch hair grafting in hair restoration.

This study used a 3D live imaging system to map cell dynamics in human hair follicles, revealing patterns of cell movement and division that help explain hair fiber extrusion during hair growth.

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.

In this study, cats fed trace minerals complexed with lysine and glutamic acid displayed temporary improvements in hair loss and dander scores at 45 days, compared to those receiving inorganic trace minerals, although no differences were seen by day 90.

In this study, researchers presented cases of cellular neurothekeoma in three male family members with early-onset in infancy, suggesting a potential genetic component and inheritance pattern, which deviates from the typical presentation seen mostly in women between 20–30 years.

This case report outlines a 10-year-old boy who experienced a six-year history of twenty-nail dystrophy, highlighting the importance of physical examination for early diagnosis and management of nail disorders, with his primary symptoms involving nail disfigurement and alopecia areata, but no other health issues.

This case report describes a 6-year-old with alopecia areata and family history, highlighting successful management through individualized homeopathic treatment after limited improvement with allopathic medicines.

In this animal study, treatment with Trachyspermum copticum seed extract significantly altered IL-1 and KGF/FGF-7 gene expression, improving dermatitis and hair growth in mice compared to controls and corticosteroids.

This case report documents a cat with necrolytic migratory erythema due to glucagonoma and diabetes mellitus, highlighting similarities to glucagonoma syndrome in humans.

Dutasteride works better than finasteride for hair growth with similar side effects.

This chapter reviews surgical management techniques for leukotrichia in vitiligo and presents no new clinical findings; it highlights various grafting and epilation methods.

This review discusses the use of finasteride for treating androgenetic alopecia in men, noting its effectiveness in maintaining and regrowing hair on the scalp and top of the head.

This review discusses various genetic and acquired skin diseases that can affect male fertility, highlighting the clinical management challenges and reports no new research findings.

This review highlights how forensic drug analysis in hair using modern instrumental techniques offers advantages such as easy sample collection and chronological tracking of drug use, emphasizing its value for law enforcement and other applications.
