research Light scattering from human hair fibers
Researchers developed a new model for more realistic computer graphics of hair by considering how light scatters on hair fibers.
research Punctate Follicular Porokeratosis
Punctate follicular porokeratosis is a skin condition with specific features seen in hair follicles.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans Associated with Acne Keloidalis Nuchae and Tufted Hair Folliculitis
KFSD can be linked to acne keloidalis nuchae and tufted hair folliculitis.
research A Newborn With Hair Loss
The baby’s hair loss was due to a rare genetic condition, not treatable by usual methods.
research Concentric or Targetoid Regrowth in Alopecia Areata
The document concludes that a unique target-like hair regrowth pattern in alopecia areata may be more common than thought and should be properly identified.
research A 43-Year-Old Woman with a Solitary, Asymptomatic Nodule on the Scalp
A woman's scalp nodule was a common, harmless pilar cyst, treated by surgical removal.
research Editors’ Picks
Hair shaft miniaturization leads to hair follicle stem cell loss, suggesting Piezo1 as a potential treatment target.
research Histologic Features of Alopecias–Part I: Nonscarring Alopecias
The document concludes that recognizing specific histological features of different nonscarring alopecias is crucial for accurate diagnosis and understanding hair loss progression.
research Miniaturized hairs maintain contact with the arrector pili muscle in alopecia areata but not in androgenetic alopecia: A model for reversible miniaturization and potential for hair regrowth
Miniaturized hairs stay connected to muscle in alopecia areata, allowing possible regrowth, but not in androgenetic alopecia.
research Topical fluocinolone acetonide acetate ointment in autosomal dominant congenital hypotrichosis
A hair growth ointment improved hair length in a family with a genetic hair growth condition.
research Independent DSG4 frameshift variants in cats with hair shaft dystrophy
Cats with abnormal hair had DSG4 gene changes causing hair problems.
research Harlequin fetus with abnormal lamellar granules and giant mitochondria
Harlequin ichthyosis involves abnormal skin cell structures and giant mitochondria, affecting skin and hair.
research A tricky case of hair loss in a child: Trichoscopy saves the day
Trichoscopy helped diagnose and cure a child's hair loss caused by a fungal infection.
research Light scattering from human hair fibers
Researchers developed a new model for more realistic computer graphics rendering of hair by considering how light scatters on hair fibers.
research Characterization of hairless (Hr) and FGF5genes provides insights into the molecular basis of hair loss in cetaceans
Cetaceans lost hair due to changes in the Hr and FGF5 genes.
research SnapshotDx Quiz: August 2016
Balding scalps show different gene expressions affecting hair growth compared to non-balding scalps.
research Trichohyalin Mechanically Strengthens the Hair Follicle
Trichohyalin makes hair follicles stronger.
research The optical properties of human hair II. The luster of hair fibers
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Cytochemistry of Trichohyalin Granules: A Possible Role for Cornification of Inner Root Sheath Cell in the Hair Follicle
Trichohyalin granules help inner root sheath cells in hair follicles harden by integrating with keratin filaments.
research Self‐organizing hair peg‐like structures from dissociated skin progenitor cells: New insights for human hair follicle organoid engineering and Turing patterning in an asymmetric morphogenetic field
Researchers created early-stage hair-like structures from skin cells, showing how these cells can self-organize, but more is needed for complete hair growth.
research Experimental Approaches for the Reconstitution of Hair in vitro
Dermal papillae are crucial for hair growth and follicle development.
research COEXISTENCE OF TRICHOSTASIS SPINULOSA AND ERUPTIVE VELLUS HAIR CYSTS
Recognizing both trichostasis spinulosa and eruptive vellus hair cysts together is crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
research The Catalog of Human Hair Keratins
Human hair is made up of different keratins, some strong and some weak, with specific types appearing at various stages of hair growth.
research Dermoscopy: A rapid bedside tool to assess monilethrix
Dermoscopy quickly and accurately diagnosed a rare hair disorder in a 12-year-old girl.
research Cultured Peribulbar Dermal Sheath Cells Can Induce Hair Follicle Development and Contribute to the Dermal Sheath and Dermal Papilla
Certain cells from hair follicles can create new hair and contribute to hair growth when implanted in mice.
research Microscopic Study concerning Hair Form of One Family in the Mixed Blood between European and Ponapean
Hair form in mixed-blood families varies due to hereditary twist-knots and pigment formation.
research Expression of type I hair keratins in follicular tumours
Pilomatrixomas likely originate from the hair matrix due to changes in hair keratin expression.
