research Characterization and causal investigations of an alopecia syndrome in Australian fur seals (Arctocephalus pusillus doriferus)
Young female Australian fur seals are losing hair due to low tyrosine and zinc levels and high pollution exposure.
research The Arrector Pili Muscle and the Follicular Unit of the Scalp: A Microscopic Anatomy Study
The study found that hair follicles are above muscle connections in the scalp, which may help protect stem cell areas.
research Morphology and Properties of Hair
Hair is made of strong keratin fibers that protect against the environment.
research Structure and site of expression of a murine type II hair keratin
A specific type II hair keratin was identified and found in hair cortex and tongue cells.
research Exploring a biological tissue from atomic to macroscopic scale using synchrotron radiation: example of hair.
Hair has unevenly distributed proteins and lipids, with lipids mainly in the cuticle and proteins in the cortex and medulla.

A 4-year-old girl has a rare condition causing hairlessness and skin bumps, but normal teeth and sweating.
research Cyclic hair-loss and regrowth in transgenic mice overexpressing an intermediate filament gene.
Mice with extra sheep genes had hair that fell out and regrew in cycles.
research Dermo‐epidermal interactions in reptilian scales: Speculations on the evolution of scales, feathers, and hairs
Reptilian scales, feathers, and hairs evolved from changes in skin cell interactions.
research Phylogeny of the Hair Follicle: The Sebogenic Hypothesis
Hair follicles evolved from oil glands, with hair aiding secretion transport.
research Removal of Intact Hair Papilla and Connective Tissue Sheath by Plucking Anagen Hairs**From the Department of Dermatology of the University of Hamburg, Germany.
Plucking hairs in a certain way can result in intact hair roots, not related to baldness.
research Clinicopathological insights into the phenotypic variation of autosomal recessive hypotrichosis/wooly hair by c.736T>A LIPH mutation
The conclusion is that the variation in hair thinness in patients is mostly due to the amount of underdeveloped hairs, and treatments that thicken fine hairs might work for those with mild to severe conditions.
research Outer root sheath keratinization in anagen and catagen of the mammalian hair follicle. A seventh distinct type of keratinization in the hair follicle: trichilemmal keratinization.
Trichilemmal keratinization is a unique process in hair follicles where the outer root sheath turns into keratin without a specific layer.
