research Early embryonic exposure of freshwater gastropods to pharmaceutical 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors results in a surprising open-coiled “banana-shaped” shell
Certain drugs change freshwater snail shells to a "banana" shape.
research Sarcoidosis: Are there differences in your skin of color patients?
Sarcoidosis is more common and severe in Black patients than in Caucasians, requiring early diagnosis and treatment.
research Organizational principles of integumentary organs: Maximizing variations for effective adaptation
Integumentary organs adapt and evolve for survival, with potential uses in regenerative medicine.
research Association Between Stress and Bilateral Symmetrical Alopecia in Free-Ranging Formosan Macaques (Macaca Cyclopis) in A High-Population-Density Area
Stress likely causes hair loss in Formosan macaques.
research Fine Structure of Perifollicular Nerve Endings in Human Hair
research Novel skin phenotypes revealed by a genome-wide mouse reverse genetic screen
The research identified new skin traits in mice, some linked to human skin conditions.
research Mouse Hair Cycle Expression Dynamics Modeled as Coupled Mesenchymal and Epithelial Oscillators
The study concluded that hair growth in mice is regulated by a stable interaction between skin cell types, and disrupting this can cause hair loss.
research 1426 Deletion of hoxc13 in frogs reveals key steps in the molecular evolution of cornified skin appendages
Deleting the Hoxc13 gene in frogs shows its crucial role in developing skin structures similar to hair.
research A polygenic mouse model of psoriasiform skin disease in CD18-deficient mice.
CD18-deficient mice developed psoriasis-like skin disease, useful for studying inflammatory skin disorders.
research Progressive Eyelash Loss and Scale of the Right Eyelid
The man likely has a condition causing eyelash loss and scaling on his eyelid.
research Histological characterisation of the skin of the Paraechinus hypomelas, Brandt, 1836 (Erinaceidae: Eulipotyphla)
Brandt's hedgehog has thick skin on its back and many glands near its nostrils.
research A Case of Linear Alopecia of the Scalp
Treatment with methotrexate and prednisolone led to complete hair regrowth and no relapse for 2 years.
research The Story of the Finest Armor: Developmental Aspects of Reptile Skin
Reptile skin protects and prevents water loss, helping them adapt to land.
research Clinical and Histologic Features of 64 Cases of Steatocystoma Multiplex
Steatocystoma multiplex is a skin condition starting around age 26, linked to hair follicles, and related to eruptive vellus hair cysts.
research Formation of regulator/target gene relationships during evolution
Gene regulatory regions evolve faster than protein coding regions, allowing new gene relationships without changing transcription factors.
research A modular modeling approach for investigating wool critical buckling from biologically variable along-fiber microstructure
The model helps understand how wool fiber structure affects its strength and flexibility.
research In vivo response of GsdmA3Dfl/+ mice to topically applied anti-psoriatic agents: effects on epidermal thickness, as determined by optical coherence tomography and H&E staining
Betamethasone dipropionate reduced skin thickness, fish oil increased it, and combined treatment had no significant effect.
research rwSALT: a regrowth-weighted SALT score providing direct pixel-level measurement rather than visual estimation
rwSALT provides precise hair regrowth measurement from scalp photos.
research Observation of cultured amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles by atomic force microscopy
Amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles are immature and likely don't transfer melanosomes to keratinocytes.
research Planar cell polarity-dependent and independent functions in the emergence of tissue-scale hair follicle patterns
Mice can correct hair follicle orientation without certain genes, but proper overall alignment needs those genes.
research The structure of the cornified claw sheath in the domesticated cat (Felis catus): implications for the claw‐shedding mechanism and the evolution of cornified digital end organs
Cat claws stay sharp by shedding their outer layer through microcracks formed during activities.
research Ultrastructural visualization of cross-linked protein features in epidermal appendages
Cross-linked proteins help maintain the structure of hair, feathers, and hagfish teeth.
research Sprouty/FGF signaling regulates the proximal–distal feather morphology and the size of dermal papillae
Sprouty and FGF balance is crucial for normal feather shape and size.
research Open and Closed Structure
The 3D hair follicle model improves understanding of hair growth and drug testing.
research Serine-rich ultra high sulfur protein gene expression in murine hair and skin during the hair cycle.
Two specific genes are more active during hair growth in mice.
research Assessment of hair density and caliber in Caucasian and Asian female subjects with female pattern hair loss by using the Folliscope
Caucasian hair is denser, but Asian hair is thicker in female pattern hair loss patients.
research Human hair follicle dermal papilla cell, dermal sheath cell and interstitial dermal fibroblast characteristics.
DP and DS cells are different from DF cells in structure and function.

A young woman had a rare, usually non-cancerous tumor on her face that was initially mistaken for a different condition.
research Diffuse variants of scalp lichen planopilaris: Clinical, trichoscopic, and histopathologic features of 40 patients
A new variant of lichen planopilaris causing diffuse hair thinning was identified.
