Pigmented vellus and upright regrowing hairs predict hair regrowth in severe alopecia.
research Analyses of histological and transcriptome differences in the skin of short-hair and long-hair rabbits
Hair length in rabbits is linked to differences in lipid metabolism and cell death.
research Upregulation of interfollicular epidermal and hair infundibulum β-catenin expression in Gsdma3 mutant mice
Mice with a Gsdma3 gene mutation have thicker skin and longer hair follicle openings due to increased β-catenin levels.
research Intrinsic curvature in wool fibres is determined by the relative length of orthocortical and paracortical cells
Wool fibre curvature is due to longer orthocortical cells compared to paracortical cells.

The document concludes that different patterns of hair thickness and scalp changes can help diagnose types of non-scarring hair loss.
research Pigtail hair in acute telogen effluvium – Lest we forget!
Pigtail hair is a sign of new hair growth and should be recognized in hair loss conditions like acute telogen effluvium.
research New Aspects of the Structure of Human Scalp Hair-II: Tubular Structure and Material Flow Property of the Medulla.
The medulla in Asian scalp hair has a tubular structure that allows ions and large molecules to flow through it.
research Isolation and Characterization of Mouse High-glycine/Tyrosine Proteins
Mouse high-glycine/tyrosine proteins have distinct patterns in hair follicles, peaking at specific hair cycle days.
research Female-patterned alopecia in teenage brothers with unusual histologic features
Two teenage brothers had a rare, treatment-resistant form of female-pattern hair loss with unusual scalp changes.
