A man with a mental disorder turned his skin blue-gray by drinking silver to treat warts.
research The structure of the cornified claw sheath in the domesticated cat (Felis catus): implications for the claw‐shedding mechanism and the evolution of cornified digital end organs
Cat claws stay sharp by shedding their outer layer through microcracks formed during activities.
research Wnt4 increases the thickness of the epidermis in burn wounds by activating canonical Wnt signalling and decreasing the cell junctions between epidermal cells
Wnt4 protein makes the outer skin layer thicker in burn wounds by turning on a specific healing pathway and loosening the connections between skin cells.
research Characterization of the Human Hair Shaft Cuticle–Specific Keratin-Associated Protein 10 Family
KRTAP10 proteins help form the hair shaft's tough outer layer by interacting with specific hair keratins.
research Mechanical stimulation of human hair follicle outer root sheath cultures activates adjacent sensory neurons
Touching hair can activate nearby nerve cells through signals from the hair's outer layer.

A specific mutation in the K25 gene causes a rare genetic disorder with curly hair at birth and later hair loss, along with dental issues.
research Pediculosis
Scalp biopsies are important for diagnosing hair loss conditions.
research Improved cutaneous wound healing after intraperitoneal injection of alpha‐melanocyte‐stimulating hormone
Injecting alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone in mice improved skin healing and reduced scarring.
research Twist2 contributes to skin regeneration and hair follicle formation in mouse fetuses
Twist2 is essential for proper skin healing and hair growth in developing mice.
research Letters to the Editor
The letters discussed medical tools, costs, treatment efficacy, and patient care complexities.
research Vitamin D Receptor: New Assignments for an Already Busy Receptor
The vitamin D receptor is involved in multiple body functions beyond calcium regulation, including immune response and rapid reactions not related to gene activity.
research BMP2 and BMP7 play antagonistic roles in feather induction
BMP2 and BMP7 have opposite roles in feather formation.
research The Functional Diversity of Epidermal Keratins Revealed by the Partial Rescue of the Keratin 14 Null Phenotype by Keratin 16
K16 can partially replace K14 but causes hair loss and skin issues.
research Enzymatic and non-enzymatic sulfation mechanisms in the biological actions of minoxidil
Minoxidil needs activation to work, and minoxidil sulfate helps with hair growth and blood pressure.
research Circulatory Changes in Alopecia
The document suggests that the traditional understanding of hair growth cycles and alopecia may be inaccurate and that blood supply plays a significant role in hair growth and loss.
