The new microwell device helps grow more hair stem cells that can regenerate hair.
research Congenital dyserythropoietic anaemia and dyskeratosis in Australian Poll Hereford calves
Two Australian Poll Hereford calves had severe anaemia, abnormal red blood cells, and skin issues.
research Mammalian keratin associated proteins (KRTAPs) subgenomes: disentangling hair diversity and adaptation to terrestrial and aquatic environments
Different hair types in mammals are linked to variations in specific protein genes, with changes influenced by their living environments.
research Myotonic Dystrophy—A Progeroid Disease?
Myotonic dystrophy may be classified as a segmental progeroid disorder.
research Hair microscopy: an easy adjunct to diagnosis of systemic diseases in children
Hair microscopy is a simple and cost-effective method to help diagnose systemic diseases in children.
research Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in Black men: A case series highlighting key clinical features in this cohort
The document concludes that early and accurate diagnosis of hair loss on the top of the scalp in Black men is important to distinguish CCCA from other types of hair loss.
research Keratin 15 promotes a progenitor cell state in basal keratinocytes of skin epidermis
Keratin 15 helps maintain skin cell growth and repair.
research Hydrogel forming microneedles loaded with VEGF and Ritlecitinib/polyhydroxyalkanoates nanoparticles for mini-invasive androgenetic alopecia treatment
New microneedle treatment with growth factors and a hair loss drug shows better and faster hair growth results than current treatments.
research Animals in Dermatology
Using animal names for skin conditions helps with learning and memory.
research Immunolocalization of Scaffoldin, a Trichohyalin‐Like Protein, in the Epidermis of the Chicken Embryo
Scaffoldin helps form hard skin structures in chicken embryos.

Trichoscopy helps accurately diagnose Netherton syndrome, often mistaken for atopic dermatitis.
research Existence of Neural Crest–Derived Progenitor Cells in Normal and Fuchs Endothelial Dystrophy Corneal Endothelium
Neural crest-derived progenitor cells in the cornea could help treat corneal issues without transplants.
research Modulation of the differentiated phenotype of keratinocytes of the hair follicle and from epidermis
Hair follicle cells need complex interactions to fully differentiate.
research Ageing processes influence keratin and KAP expression in human hair follicles
Aging causes changes in hair follicles, leading to weaker hair growth.
research SEM/SDD-EDS—An analytical tool to identify water borne micro minerals pick up in human scalp hair cuticle due to water quality
Water quality affects mineral content in hair, and coconut oil can protect against damage.
research Scanning electron microscopes/silicon drift detector-energy dispersive spectroscopy: An analytical tool to identify waterborne microminerals pickup in human scalp hair cuticle due to water quality
The method can identify minerals in hair from water, and using coconut oil or conditioner can prevent mineral buildup.
research Crystalline Cataract and Uncombable Hair
The study found no common cause for a girl's crystalline cataract and uncombable hair, suggesting their co-occurrence might be coincidental.
research Alopecia areata
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss, influenced by genetics, stress, and diet, and may be prevented by a high soy oil diet.
research LOOSE ANAGEN SYNDROME AND LOOSE ANAGEN HAIR
Loose Anagen Syndrome causes easy-to-pull, thin hair, mainly in young girls, and improves with age.
