Trichilemmal keratinization is a unique process in hair follicles where the outer root sheath turns into keratin without a specific layer.

Hair stops producing melanin as it transitions from the growth phase to the resting phase.

Researchers found a new mite species causing severe hair loss and skin problems in yellow-bellied marmots.

The silver marmoset's skin is thin, lacks pigment cells, and has unique features like keratinized spines and specialized glands.

The Dfl mutation in mice causes poor sebaceous gland function and complete hair loss.

Feathers are crucial for understanding bird evolution, development, and have inspired biomimetic research.

New molecules involved in skin and hair growth were identified, improving understanding and future treatments.

Hair follicles in C57BL/6 mice develop rapidly from late embryonic stages to shortly after birth, with key growth and regeneration phases identified.
