January 2026 in “Journal of Clinical and Investigative Dermatology” The document discusses a case report of familial Pure Hair–Nail Ectodermal Dysplasia (PHNED) in Yemen, focusing on a father and son. PHNED, associated with the HOXC13 gene, often presents with severe hypotrichosis or complete alopecia. In this case, the father exhibited nail dystrophy affecting all 20 nails, characterized by distal dystrophy and marked downward curvature. This report highlights the clinical correlation of PHNED symptoms in a familial context.

May 2026 in “Applied Spectroscopy” This study investigates the structural evolution of hair fibers under strain and the effect of relative humidity on this process. Using Raman spectroscopy and wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS), the researchers observed that keratin in hair undergoes two main transitions from α-helix to β-sheet structures, which are influenced by humidity levels. These transitions occur through a disordered state, and water plays a crucial role in modifying the hair matrix, affecting the strain at which intermediate filaments unfold. The findings provide new insights into the mechanical behavior of hair and the conditions that influence its structural changes.
