research Bioextracting Polyphenols from the Brown Seaweed Ascophyllum Nodosum from Québec's North Shore Coastline
In this study, researchers found that the conventional solvent extraction method yielded the highest polyphenol content and antioxidant activity from Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed on Québec's North Shore.
research Research on Hair Bleach That Causes Less Hair Damage and Smells Less Pungent Than Ammonium Hydroxide
This study found that using an aqueous solution of AMPD in hair bleach reduced both hair damage and odor compared to ammonium hydroxide.
research Phytochemical Analysis of Eclipta Prostrata L. Leaves
This study identified various phytochemicals and compounds in Eclipta prostrata leaves using qualitative tests, FTIR, and GC-MS analysis, highlighting the presence of phytol and squalene among others.
research SRD5A3 Is Required for Converting Polyprenol to Dolichol and Is Mutated in a Congenital Glycosylation Disorder
This study identifies mutations in the SRD5A3 gene as a cause of a new type of congenital disorder of glycosylation, impacting mental, ophthalmologic, and cerebellar functions.
research Functional Identification of the Phosphorylation Sites of Arabidopsis PIN-FORMED3 for Its Subcellular Localization and Biological Role
This study found that mutations in phosphorylation sites on the PIN3 protein disrupt its phosphorylation and subcellular trafficking, affecting auxin transport and root growth in a cell-type-specific manner.
research Elevated Carbon Dioxide Levels Lead to Proteome-Wide Alterations for Optimal Growth of a Fast-Growing Cyanobacterium, Synechococcus Elongatus PCC 11801
This study found that Synechococcus elongatus PCC 11801 responded to increased CO2 concentrations by enhancing photosynthesis and carbon fixation while reducing other metabolic pathways, suggesting its potential for efficient CO2 capture.
research Gender-Affirming Hormone Therapy for Transgender Men
This study suggests that gender-affirming testosterone therapy in transgender men is generally safe and effective with adequate screening and monitoring, although high-quality long-term studies are lacking.
research Structural Features of the Alpha-Type Filaments of the Inner Root Sheath Cells of the Guinea Pig Hair Follicle
This paper reports on the structural characteristics of α-type filaments in the inner root sheath cells of guinea pig hair follicles without presenting new clinical findings.
research Review of Oral Minoxidil as Treatment of Hair Disorders: In Search of the Perfect Dose
This study reviewed the literature on low-dose oral minoxidil as a primary treatment for various hair loss disorders, concluding that it is a successful and well-tolerated alternative to topical minoxidil for patients with poor adherence to other therapies.
research Solubility of Minoxidil in Binary Mixture of Ethanol and Water at Various Temperatures
This study found that minoxidil exhibits preferential solvation by water in both water-rich and ethanol-rich solvent mixtures.
research Low-Dose Oral Minoxidil as Treatment for Non-Scarring Alopecia: A Systematic Review
In this systematic review, oral minoxidil was found to be a safe and effective treatment for androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata, with additional benefits for female pattern hair loss and other types of alopecia, although common side effects included hypertrichosis and postural hypotension.
research Rat Steroid 5α-Reductase Kinetic Characteristics: Extreme pH-Dependency of the Type II Isozyme in Prostate and Epididymis Homogenates
This study found that the pH dependency of rat steroid 5α-reductase type II isozyme significantly affects its kinetic properties, including Vmax and Km, suggesting past discrepancies in literature may arise from these pH variances during assays.
research A Highly Resistant Structure Between Cuticle and Cortex of Human Hair
This study proposed the existence of a membrane-like structure between the cuticle and cortex in human hair, which may provide strong protection against external stimuli.
research From Stem Cells Protection to Skin Microbiota Balance: Orobanche Rapum Extract, a New Natural Strategy
This study reports that a plant extract from Orobanche rapum can stimulate skin rejuvenation and protect cutaneous microbiota, potentially creating healthier skin.
research A Randomized, Single-Blinded, Vehicle-Controlled Study of a Topical Active Blend in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
In this study, a topical lotion containing Redensyl and Sepicontrol A5 demonstrated effectiveness for treating androgenetic alopecia over 24 weeks, with 73.1% of users seeing moderate improvement and notable increases in hair cycle ratios, alongside enhanced quality of life and satisfaction.
research The Use of Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors for the Treatment of Alopecia
This review discusses the use of phosphodiesterase inhibitors for alopecia, finding promising preliminary results with topical caffeine for androgenetic alopecia and telogen effluvium, but limited success in alopecia areata.
research The Overview of Cosmetic Exfoliants Composition for Keratosis Pilaris Skincare
This study analyzed the composition and cost of 50 cosmetic body scrubs for keratosis pilaris, finding that chemical exfoliants with glycolic acid may reduce symptoms by enhancing skin shedding and reducing water loss, but further clinical studies are needed to confirm their effectiveness.
research Formulation and In-Vitro Evaluation of Poly-Herbal Anti-Fungal Eco-Friendly Soap Strips
In this study, the researchers developed and evaluated eco-friendly poly-herbal soap strips using plant extracts from Lantana camara, Moringa Oleifera, and Corn silk, finding that the strips exhibited superior physicochemical properties and significant anti-fungal activity compared to conventional anti-fungal soaps.
research Development of an Exfoliating Dermocosmetic Formulation with Babassu Fibers to Aid in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
This study aimed to develop a dermocosmetic exfoliating formulation using babassu fibers for androgenetic alopecia treatment, but found that although the formulation met sensory standards, it was unstable in sunlight and heat, suggesting a need for optimization before commercialization.
research Effects of Solvent System and Storage Condition on Chemical Stability of 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Compounds in Tectona Grandis Leaf Extracts
This study examined the stability of two 5α-reductase inhibitors in Tectona grandis extracts, finding that they are more stable in acidic environments and degrade rapidly under heat and light unless protected, suggesting the need for careful storage when developing anti-hair loss medications.
