Some chemicals absorbed through the skin can cause serious health problems.

This review summarizes current knowledge on tight junctions in mammalian skin and their role in drug delivery and interaction with other barrier components, but reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the potential link between long-term transdermal exposure to sex hormones from antiperspirants and increased breast and prostate cancer rates, calling for further research to confirm this theory.

This article reviews behavioral dermatology, highlighting the importance of integrating physiological, social, and environmental factors in managing dermatologic conditions with behavioral components, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that keratin coatings from human hair may improve the colony-forming efficiency of human mesenchymal stem cells by moderating donor variability, suggesting a potential use in clinical applications.

This study found that nano-sized lipid particles improved the skin accumulation and retention of dexamethasone compared to a base cream, suggesting potential benefits for inflammatory skin disease treatment.

This review discusses how recent advances in live imaging have revealed the dynamic and adaptable nature of stem cells during various biological processes, and reports no clinical results.

This review discusses the potential link between early postnatal allopregnanolone levels and vulnerability to drug abuse in adulthood, noting a need for more in-depth studies to confirm this relationship.

This study found that while all hair removal techniques increased axillary erythema and skin dryness, shaving caused less erythema but more dryness than plucking or waxing, without affecting post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or other skin properties.

This study found that using nanoporous silica entrapped lipid-drug complexes enhanced the solubility and bioavailability of dutasteride in beagle dogs.

In this review, researchers reported that anorexia nervosa leads to widespread medical complications across all body systems, particularly at low body weights, and these complications are primarily treated through nutritional rehabilitation with a multidisciplinary team approach.

This study explored a keratin, sodium alginate, and carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel modified with tannic acid and found it to have promising wound-healing qualities, including similar elasticity to human skin, antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, and effective water retention. These attributes suggest potential applications in biomedical engineering.

This study reported that nanoemulsions significantly improved the skin permeability of thiocolchicoside compared to its aqueous solution, suggesting they are effective carriers for its transdermal delivery.

This study found that adapalene-loaded solid lipid microparticles may enhance targeted drug delivery into sebum due to their similarity to sebum components, although both this formulation and a standard cream showed equivalent follicular penetration.

This study observed that proretinal nanoparticles delivered significantly higher concentrations of retinal to the stratum corneum and hair follicles compared to non-particulate forms, potentially improving topical retinoid therapy.

Different hair types from various ethnic groups affect hair shine due to characteristics like thickness and shape.

This study found that the uptake of molecules by hair is influenced by both hydrophobic and ionic charge interactions, with binding affinity decreasing as pH approaches the solute's dissociation constant.

This study found that alkali bromide solutions are absorbed into hair depending on salt activity, and the presence of the salt increases water absorption compared to normal conditions.

This study explored the potential of human hair keratin as a filtration material, finding that it may effectively absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutanesulfonate. The researchers reported significant binding affinities through molecular simulations, supporting further investigation into keratin's use for water purification.

The authors updated recommendations on diagnosing and treating women's sexual dysfunctions, emphasizing a comprehensive assessment approach, while noting the need for further multidisciplinary research.

This study evaluated new aqueous gel formulations of minoxidil without irritants and found that the calcium alginate gel showed the best performance in terms of drug release and skin permeation.

This review suggests that paradoxical hair growth after light-based treatments is unlikely due to the devices themselves; instead, it may be linked to other factors such as inflammation in individuals with certain conditions.

This study highlights factors contributing to increasing seborrheic alopecia among teenagers, including hormonal, lifestyle, and psychological influences, and suggests integrated treatment strategies including medication, lifestyle adjustments, and psychological interventions.

This study evaluated a menthol-based microemulsion for transdermal delivery of finasteride and silodosin, finding that it enhanced skin permeation and flux compared to aqueous solutions, suggesting a promising method for managing benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study found that serum levels of NF-L and GFAP decreased but tau protein levels did not change in anorexia nervosa patients after short-term partial weight restoration.

This review discusses various nanoparticles used to enhance skin permeation and target delivery to skin organelles, but reports no new experimental results.

This article discusses how drug molecules integrate into hair fibers, focusing on biological transport mechanisms and physicochemical factors, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study reported that oleic acid-based nanovesicles improve follicular delivery and reduce side effects of minoxidil compared to traditional MXD lotions.

PEVs effectively deliver minoxidil through skin.

This study found that moisture sorption properties of wool and hair fibers from various animals were similar, despite different structural features, with sorbed water being more ordered than liquid water.
