In this study, researchers found that hair follicle orientation in Fz6 −/− mice is disrupted and that hair may reorient itself over time through a self-organized process.

This study found that IL-6 knockout mice exhibited increased wound-induced hair neogenesis compared to wild-type mice, likely due to enhanced STAT3 activation facilitated by compensatory cytokine activity.

This abstract reviews the role of the human KRT 16 wild-type allele in skin and hair development and its association with certain genetic skin disorders, without presenting new findings.

This article discusses the human KRT72 wild-type allele's role in hair formation and reports no new research findings.

This study found that pretreatment with KP-Cryst fusion proteins effectively protected Asian and Caucasian virgin hair from thermal damage by maintaining higher water content and preventing structural changes during heat application.

This study found that a recessive mutation in the RHD4 gene of Arabidopsis thaliana leads to slower and more variable tip growth in seedling root hairs, resulting in shorter and wider hairs than in wild-type plants.

In this study, cashmere goats engineered to overexpress the Tβ4 gene in hair follicles produced more cashmere, indicating that Tβ4 promotes secondary hair follicle development and enhances yield.

This study observed that maize plants enhance phosphorus acquisition by promoting both root hair growth and lateral root development in response to localized nutrient patches, highlighting a complementary root trait trade-off.

Eating isoflavone can help mice grow hair by increasing a growth factor.

In this study, PKC ε transgenic mice exposed to ultraviolet radiation showed increased hair follicle stem cell frequency and altered gene expression compared to wild-type mice, suggesting a potential role in skin cancer susceptibility.

This study found that CD34 is necessary for TPA-induced activation of hair follicle stem cells and tumor formation in mice, with CD34 knockout mice showing delayed and reduced tumor development compared to wild-types.

This study explored the development of GelMet, an electrospun hybrid nanofiber scaffold made from gelatin and PEG methacrylate, which demonstrated strong mechanical properties and effectively supported cell growth in vitro, suggesting its potential for skin tissue engineering applications.

This study found that oxidative treatment with peracetic acid dissociates some disulfide bonds in human hair fibers while maintaining the crystalline structure, suggesting different mechanisms stabilize different regions of intermediate filaments.

This study observed that mice with a Cx43 mutation exhibited slower and asynchronous hair regrowth with severe cuticle weathering, mimicking aspects of hair phenotype in some ODDD patients.

This study suggests that the hydrogel nanoparticle formulation of hair growth-promoting compounds may enhance hair follicle penetration and induce hair growth in tested models, demonstrating its potential as a hair growth treatment.

This study found that hinokitiol in cationic vesicles promoted hair growth in mice, potentially due to its high substantivity on the skin.

This study found that reinforcing epoxy with short human hair fibers and glass micro-spheres improved its wear resistance, suggesting potential applications in products like brake shoes and pads.

This study observed that beef cattle with certain prolactin receptor gene mutations, known as slick mutations, demonstrated improved post-weaning growth and temperature regulation in a hot, humid climate compared to other genotypes, suggesting genotype influences growth efficiency and heat tolerance.

This study found that treating damaged hair with maleic-modified amino silicone oil created a highly hydrophobic surface, reducing water content and improving hair's mechanical properties and thermal stability.

This study investigated differences in gene expression in the mammary glands of SLICK and wild-type Holstein cattle, finding limited differences overall but identifying enriched pathways related to arachidonic acid metabolism and oxytocin production, which merit further exploration.

This study found that estrogen treatment induced premature catagen and apoptosis in hair follicles of wild-type mice, while having no effect on mice lacking estrogen receptor α.

This study observed that maize plants, including a root hairless mutant variety, did not exhibit typical root growth or compensatory foraging behavior under severe boron deficiency in soil, indicating atypical responses compared to other plants.

In this study, 25% of CCHCR1-deficient mice exposed to stress developed hair loss similar to human alopecia areata, suggesting CCHCR1 is a susceptibility gene for the disease.

This study observed that mice lacking epidermal HSD11b1 had increased non-histaminergic itch and changes in skin nerve fibers, potentially linked to higher TSLP expression.

This study found that the cytokeratin patterns in skin epithelia can distinguish between different types, with basal-cell epitheliomas showing a striking similarity to the pilosebaceous tract.

This study found that in mice, perforin-mediated cytolysis by CD8 T cells is not necessary for the autoimmune attack on hair follicles in alopecia areata, suggesting other mechanisms are responsible for disease progression.

This study found that conditional deletion of CD271 in mouse epidermis led to significant disorganization and increased thickness, suggesting CD271's crucial role in regulating skin differentiation and structure.

This study found that white hair demonstrated denser and more hydrophobic properties compared to black hair.

Keratin-based hydrogels from human hair and wool are promising for wound dressings and are more eco-friendly.

In this study, Flii overexpression in mice enhanced fingertip regeneration and nail formation after both distal and proximal amputations, suggesting a role in digit and hair follicle regeneration possibly involving Wnt signaling.
