This study found that triiodothyronine and epidermal growth factor differentially affected craniofacial development in neonatal rats, with various impacts on hair growth direction, incisor eruption, and ear and eyelid development.

This study described two cases of trichoblastomas in the tactile hair skin of aged house musk shrews, highlighting that their histological structure differs from that in humans and other animals.

This study found that human C-tactile afferents respond to hair deflection, suggesting a functionally relevant anatomical relationship to hair follicles similar to that observed in mice.

Hair feels different when touched and rubs together in various ways.

This study by Moore et al. (2025) provides the first evidence linking C-tactile afferents in humans to hair follicles, showing that these nerve fibers respond to hair movement rather than skin deformation, adding complexity to the understanding of their role in emotion and touch.
