research Phylloid terminal hair nevus: A unique clinical entity
A baby had a unique skin condition with a pale patch and surrounding dark hairs, not linked to other health issues.
research Molecular Basis of Hereditary Hair Diseases
Certain gene variants can cause inherited hair diseases, which are important to diagnose and understand for patient care.
research Atrichia with papular lesions in a Taiwanese patient without hairless (HR) gene mutation
A Taiwanese patient had hair loss and skin bumps without the usual gene mutation, suggesting other genetic factors might be involved.
research Melanocyte Subpopulation Turnover During the Human Hair Cycle: An Immunohistochemical Study
Melanocyte activity in hair follicles is linked to the hair growth cycle, being active in growth phases and inactive in rest phases.
research Pili trianguli et canaliculi as a phenotypic subtype in patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia: A scanning electron microscopy study
Hair shaft changes may be linked to CCCA, but their role is unclear.
research Diversity of Trichocyte Keratins and Keratin Associated Proteins
Hair and wool have diverse keratins and keratin-associated proteins.
research Dermoscopic image of the hairs in a very early lesion of tinea capitis caused by Trichophyton rubrum
Early detection of tinea capitis is possible by spotting specific hair patterns like comma or corkscrew hairs.
research Odd-Looking Hair and Progressive Alopecia in Mother and Son
Mother and son diagnosed with a rare genetic hair loss condition with no effective treatment.
research Pigmented Casts
Pigmented casts are common in several hair loss conditions and can help diagnose specific types of alopecia.
research Possible Cellular Communication with Human Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells via Secretions from Human Hair Follicle Keratinocytes
Substances from human hair cells can affect hair loss-related genes, potentially leading to new treatments for baldness.
research Hereditary Hypotrichosis and Localized Morphea: A New Clinical Entity
A family showed a new condition with inherited hair loss and skin changes, possibly due to one genetic disorder.
research Androgen Regulation of the Human Hair Follicle: The Type I Hair Keratin hHa7 Is a Direct Target Gene in Trichocytes
The hHa7 gene is regulated by androgens in certain body hair, not scalp hair.
research [An immunohistochemical study on cell differentiation in the outer root sheath of the normal human anagen hair follicles with antikeratin monoclonal antibodies].
Keratinocytes in hair follicles differentiate similarly to skin cells, with specific patterns in different regions.
research Hair shaft disorders: a rare case series
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and treatment of hair shaft disorders require understanding their unique causes and avoiding hair-damaging practices.
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 1388 Clinicopathological characteristics of fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution: A single-center, retrospective study
The study suggests fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution has distinct features and may vary by race.
research Progress report on hair keratin research
Advancements in hair keratin research could lead to better hair health treatments.
research Whole transcriptome sequencing of different hair types in inner Mongolian cashmere goats
Hair type differences in cashmere goats are linked to keratin and cytoskeletal organization.
research Pediculosis
Scalp biopsies are important for diagnosing hair loss conditions.
research TRICHOSTASIS SPINULOSA
