Neuropathic pruritus is a commonly overlooked and wrongly diagnosed type of chronic itching that is hard to treat.
research ‘Hirsutism’: A Psychological Analysis
Women with excess body hair feel psychological distress influenced by societal beauty standards, but distress isn't directly linked to the amount of hair.
research Effects of transient receptor potential (TRP) channel agonists and antagonists on slowly adapting type II mechanoreceptors in the rat sinus hair follicle
TRPA1 and TRPV1 channels don't affect mechanotransduction in rat sinus hair follicles.

research Short- and long-term effects of two emollients on itching and skin restoration in xerotic eczema
Both emollients effectively reduced itching and improved skin moisture in xerotic eczema.
research Friction and wear studies of human hair and skin
Human hair and skin friction vary by ethnicity, hair type, and environmental conditions.
research Phenotypic heterogeneity in human genetic diseases: ultrasensitivity-mediated threshold effects as a unifying molecular mechanism
Different people show different symptoms for genetic diseases because of how sensitive their bodies are to small changes in important factors.
research Role of BK channels and Kv4.2 channels in the electrophysiological properties of Merkel cells in rat whisker hair follicles
BK and Kv4.2 channels help Merkel cells in rat whiskers sense touch.
research Spinal bicuculline produces hypersensitivity of dorsal horn neurons: effects of excitatory amino acid antagonists
Blocking GABA(A) receptors increases neuron sensitivity, showing GABA and glycine have different roles in pain.
research Pruritus, Allergy and Autoimmunity: Paving the Way for an Integrated Understanding of Psychodermatological Diseases?
The conclusion is that understanding the complex relationship between allergies, autoimmunity, and psychological factors is key to treating skin disorders with itching.
research Increased acetylcholine levels in skin biopsies of patients with atopic dermatitis
Atopic dermatitis patients have much higher acetylcholine levels in their skin, which may cause itching.
research Surgical Pearl: Mechanoanesthesia to reduce the pain of local injections
Using a vibrating device during injections can help reduce pain.
research 495 OR2AT4 activation by a synthetic odorant, stimulates dermcidin production in human hair follicle epithelium and increases follicular resistance to bacterial contamination: A novel antimicrobial folliculitis therapy?
A synthetic sandalwood odorant can boost antimicrobial production in hair follicles, making them more resistant to bacteria.
research Cuticle damage and the tensile properties of human hair
Cuticle damage doesn't affect hair's tensile strength; the cortex is responsible for it.
