This study found that increasing the pH from 2.0 to 6.0 enhanced the binding of cationic solutes to hair keratin, driven primarily by hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions.

This study investigated the Mandarin duck as a model for understanding lifelong developmental changes, finding that male sail feather morphogenesis involves a combination of local morphogenetic programs, epigenetic regulation, and hormonal cues, with increased female estrogen levels observed before the mating season.

This study found no evidence that the tested hair dye ingredients undergo hepatic metabolism to reactive oxidized metabolites in human liver microsomes and hepatocytes.

This study found that applying low-intensity ultrasound enhanced hair growth on the treated area of mice with androgenic alopecia, potentially by affecting the action of finasteride.

In this study, researchers investigated the impact of a bioactive peptide derived from amphibians on hair follicle regeneration in diabetic skin, focusing on its potential to enhance wound healing and reduce infection risk.

This study found that keratin 17 expression is initially down-regulated and later strongly up-regulated by ionizing radiation in a rat model, with p53 repressing early transcription.

This study found that a new deoxycholic acid derivative may offer a similar prostatoprotective effect to finasteride with lower toxicity in rat models.

This study identified a recurrent mutation in the endothelin receptor type A associated with mandibulofacial dysostosis with alopecia, and proposed a mechanism involving increased ligand affinity due to structural changes.

In an animal study, researchers observed that a newly synthesized deoxycholic acid derivative showed similar prostate protection effects to finasteride in Wistar rats while being less toxic.

This study found that extracts from Terminalia bellirica enhanced dermal papilla cell viability, inhibited androgen-related pathways, and stimulated hair regrowth in a mouse model, suggesting potential for treating androgenetic alopecia through multi-target mechanisms.

In this study, researchers found that Compound Baqian Danshen Liniment may improve vitiligo in mice by promoting melanocyte activity and reducing inflammation and oxidative stress.

This study reports that a new nude allele, nu(StL), encodes a truncated Whn transcription factor affecting T-cell development and keratin gene expression, with notable differences from the original Whn(nu) mutation.

This study suggests that the structural integrity and physical proximity of Whn's DNA binding and activation domains are crucial for hair keratin gene activation and may explain the nude phenotype.

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 combining flutamide with an oral contraceptive significantly reduced hirsutism, acne, and seborrhea in patients after seven months, without significant side effects.

This study found that topical minoxidil and diazoxide induced significant hair regrowth in bald macaques, while a steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor prevented baldness in preadolescent macaques.

This study found that preconditioning adipose-derived stem cells with HB-EGF enhanced their ability to promote hair growth in vivo by increasing their motility, paracrine effects, and survival.

This review discusses treatments for female acne, highlighting the effectiveness of low-dose oral contraceptives and noting their similar side effects to placebo; it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, desmopressin-loaded elastic liposomes (ODEL1) showed improved permeation and drug deposition across rat skin by altering the skin's cohesive energies and causing reversible changes on its surface.

Vitamin D receptor mutations can cause alopecia by affecting hair growth genes.

This study found that the oral contraceptive containing drospirenone (EE/DRSP) was as effective as EE/CPA in reducing acne lesions, sebum production, and hair growth in women with acne.

This study identified a subtype of itch-sensing neurons in mice, which express Ret and somatostatin, and found that their ablation reduces scratching induced by certain pruritogens.

This review examines the role of retinoic acid synthesis in hair follicles and sebaceous glands, focusing on its localization and function during normal and disease states, but reports no new results.

This study identified a missense mutation in the rat Desmoglein 4 gene, causing abnormal hair shaft development in lanceolate hair mutant rats by disrupting a critical calcium binding site.

This study found that the loss of Smad4 in keratinocytes reduces Dsg4 expression via disrupted BMP signaling, contributing to hair follicle degeneration and alopecia.

This study reports that compound heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in the HEPHL1 gene in a child were associated with abnormal hair and cognitive issues, linking altered ferroxidase activity to hair disorders.

This review explains the mechanical composition and molecular interactions that determine hair's mechanical properties, without providing any new experimental findings.

CaBP1 and CaBP2 are necessary for proper hearing and neurotransmission in the ear's inner hair cells.

The researchers reported that PEG-FGF2 conjugates, particularly Compound 6, significantly enhanced stability, proliferation, migration, and wound healing activity compared to native FGF2, despite some reduction in bioactivity near crucial binding domains.

CaBP1 and CaBP2 are necessary for proper hearing and neurotransmission in the ear's inner hair cells.
