This study found that trichoscopy can rapidly and noninvasively diagnose tinea capitis and alopecia areata in pediatric patients by identifying specific hair patterns associated with each condition.

This study found that dermoscopy is effective for distinguishing Tinea Capitis from Alopecia Areata by identifying unique trichoscopic features specific to each condition.

This study found that Runx3 deficiency in mice affects hair type and shape, suggesting it may regulate hair formation through interactions between dermal and epidermal layers.

The authors concluded that total hairline correction, which addresses multiple areas beyond the frontotemporal recess, is more effective in improving aesthetic facial balance for women with M-shaped or rectangular hairlines.

This study found that the development and differentiation of Merkel cells in C57BL mouse embryos' dorsolateral skin are linked to tylotrich follicle formation rather than to neural influences.

In this study, researchers observed that the combination of hair progenitors and their micro-niche changes every three days in mouse zigzag hair, and disruptions in specific genes affected this rhythm, highlighting the importance of this periodic change for normal hair morphology.

In this study, researchers found that the number of dermal papilla cells in hair follicles determines hair size and shape in mice, suggesting potential avenues for addressing hair loss.

This review discusses guidelines for hair transplantation tailored to East Asian patients, focusing on hairline design, donor harvesting, and graft techniques, and reports no new clinical results.

In this mouse study, NF-κB was shown to play a role in hair follicle cycling and morphogenesis, with specific activity patterns differing by hair type and involving noncanonical signaling for zigzag hair bending.

EBF1 controls hair type and length.

This study found trichoscopy to be a highly sensitive, non-invasive method for diagnosing tinea capitis in children, which could be valuable in resource-limited settings lacking mycological culture facilities.

This study explored the regenerative abilities of the African spiny mouse's skin, revealing more robust wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis compared to laboratory mice and highlighting unique features of its hair and wound response.

This study aimed to identify trichoscopic features that help differentiate between tinea capitis and alopecia areata in children, enhancing diagnosis and treatment decisions visually and non-invasively.

This study found that heterozygous mice overexpressing Claudin-6 experienced alterations in epidermal and hair follicle differentiation, leading to distinctive coat characteristics and a disrupted epidermal permeability barrier.

Runx1 is crucial for proper hair structure and development.

This study found that distinct low-threshold mechanoreceptors innervate different hair follicle types in mice, suggesting that these follicles serve as unique mechanosensory structures in touch perception.

In this study, ectopic Wnt10b-mediated β-catenin activation in hair follicles resulted in larger regenerating anagen hair structures, an effect modulated by the Wnt inhibitor DKK1.

In this study, incorporating a novel amino acid compound into a hair-straightening formulation improved humidity-resistant straightening and enhanced the surface and mechanical properties of hair fibers, including increased bending stiffness, reduced friction, and better shape retention under high temperature and humidity conditions.

This review highlights the hair follicle's structural and functional properties as an effective route for delivering active compounds in treating hair disorders, focusing on emerging carrier technologies to enhance targeted transfollicular delivery.

Hair transplantation in East Asians needs special techniques to ensure natural results and prevent complications due to their unique hair and scalp characteristics.

This study identifies a bipotent stem cell in adult hair follicles that self-renews and contributes to dermal sheath and papilla cell populations, potentially aiding hair regrowth after injury, disease, or aging.

This study found that human mesenchymal stem cells overexpressing JAM-A improved hair follicle structure and hair formation in mice by reducing abnormalities such as curved and zigzagged follicles.

This study found that ablation of Tet2/Tet3 genes in skin epithelial cells altered hair shape and length, leading to hair loss, by affecting chromatin accessibility and gene expression related to hair follicle regulation.

This review highlights the lack of research on Afro-textured hair, emphasizing the need for better understanding of its genetic traits and molecular structure to develop more effective hair care solutions.

This study found that altering mechanical signals in mouse wounds, particularly through FAK inhibition, increased hair regeneration by modulating wound stiffness and gene expression linked to tissue regeneration.
