The new method improves hair segmentation in skin images, helping detect skin cancer more accurately.
research Locations of synthesis of hair structural proteins in human anagen follicles
Hair structural proteins are synthesized sequentially in specific cells, offering a new way to study hair proteins and defects.
research Fourier Transform Infrared Attenuated Total Reflection Analysis of Human Hair: Comparison of Hair from Breast Cancer Patients with Hair from Healthy Subjects
Hair from breast cancer patients shows changes in structure and composition, and a test using these changes detected cancer but also falsely identified some healthy samples as cancerous.
research Analysis of Cysteine on the Surface of Hair Fibers with Spectrofluorescence
Cysteine formation on hair indicates damage, best detected at pH 4.5.

Combining laser therapy with hair extraction improves eyebrow scar treatment.
research Keratin Biomaterials Activate Schwann Cells via Integrin‐Mediated Signaling and Promote Regeneration of Large Peripheral Nerve Defects in a Rabbit Model
Keratin biomaterials from human hair help nerve regeneration by activating Schwann cells.
research 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D resistance, rickets, and alopecia
A genetic defect in vitamin D receptors causes severe rickets and hair loss in children, but some heal as they age.
research Inborn Errors of Biotin Metabolism
Two enzyme defects in biotin metabolism cause severe skin, hair, and metabolic issues.
research Heterozygous deletion of the NSDHL gene in an Appenzeller Mountain Dog with verrucous epidermal keratinocytic nevi
A genetic defect in an Appenzeller Mountain Dog caused skin issues, improved with ketoconazole, showing the importance of advanced genetic testing.
research Striae distensae over scalp: a trichoscopic revelation
Trichoscopy can detect early signs of steroid overuse on the scalp, suggesting a need for non-steroidal treatments.
research Is there a role for dermatologists in eating disorders?
Dermatologists can help detect and manage eating disorders by recognizing skin changes.

A new DSG4 gene mutation causes hair defects in a young girl.
research Morphologische und biochemische untersuchungen am Haar bei gestörtem Aminosäurestoffwechsel
Metabolic disorders can cause hair structure defects and growth issues, but amino acid levels in hair remain normal.
research Metabolic and cellular analysis of alopecia in vitamin D receptor knockout mice
Alopecia in these mice is caused by defective hair cycle communication due to missing vitamin D receptor function, not vitamin D levels.
research The Evaluation and Treatment of Hirsute Women
Excessive body hair in women can be caused by various conditions and treated with medication like Diane® 35 or androgen blockers.
research [Studies on monilethrix].
