EF and PXE not closely related.

This study demonstrates that the amino-terminally shortened KGF-1 variant with 135 residues maintains biological activity, suggesting it may serve as an alternative to the original KGF-1 for certain therapeutic applications.

This review discusses the characteristics, extraction strategies, and potential applications of plant and algal lipid droplets but reports no new empirical findings.

This review discusses the potential of cathelicidins in treating skin conditions but highlights significant challenges, including unclear clinical efficacy, safety concerns, and bacterial resistance, that must be addressed for successful medical application.

This study found that elastin-like recombinamer (ELR) wound dressings promote tissue regeneration and stability without rejection in ex vivo and in vivo models, indicating potential for hard-to-heal wound treatment.

This Ph.D. project aims to evaluate the self-assembling potential of hair keratin extracts and study the cellular response to both crude and purified keratins, highlighting their potential applications from biomedical to water remediation.

This review discusses the role of inheritance, androgens, and microinflammation in androgenetic alopecia and suggests some plant-based folk remedies may help address these factors but reports no new clinical results.

This case study reported an improvement in lower limb edema for a patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus after starting dulaglutide treatment, suggesting a potential role of the drug in sodium retention disorders.

This study found that adding microneedling to minoxidil treatment significantly improved hair growth in men with androgenetic alopecia compared to minoxidil alone across all assessed measures.

This study concluded that the Wnt signaling pathway does not significantly influence human keratoacanthoma development, but the overexpression of Sox9 suggests alternate signaling involvement.

This review highlights the potential of extracellular vesicle-based therapies for treating various diseases, but it also notes challenges like the lack of regulatory guidelines that hinder their clinical development.

This study synthesized existing research on 11 tropical seed varieties, underscoring their potential in food, pharmaceutical, and agricultural industries due to their phytochemicals and nutrients, such as phenolics and vitamins, which could reduce waste and support sustainable practices.

In this study using human cell cultures, type 1 5α-reductase was found to vary in both protein heterogeneity and expression levels across different types of skin cells.

This study generated a gene-edited cashmere goat with improved cashmere yield and fiber length by integrating VEGF at the FGF5 site, offering insights into hair growth mechanisms.

This study found that finasteride-loaded microemulsions using poloxamer 124 significantly enhanced skin penetration of the drug compared to a standard solution, primarily through targeting hair follicles via the transfollicular pathway, with intercluster, intercellular, and transcellular pathways contributing less.

This study identified a primitive coarse wool characteristic in Merino sheep that enhances environmental adaptability and fine wool yield without reducing quality, suggesting that epigenetic mechanisms, particularly involving the imprinted Gtl2-miRNAs locus, regulate this advantageous trait.

This study found that an anti-atopic lotion containing fucoidan helped heal skin damage in hairless mice with atopic dermatitis by reducing skin thickness and modulating immune responses.

This study found that immune-mediated destruction of bulge stem cells is a key factor in the alopecia observed in AE mice, suggesting it as a model for studying primary cicatricial alopecias, particularly lichen planopilaris.

In this review, researchers discussed recent advances in nanotechnology for topical skin applications, highlighting how nanocarriers enhance skin penetration and targeting in treatments for diseases like melanoma and psoriasis, while acknowledging that the penetration mechanisms and health impacts of nanoparticles remain not fully understood.

In this study, the SFE-4 extract from coffee pulp demonstrated potential effects for treating androgenetic alopecia by enhancing cell proliferation and gene expression related to hair growth pathways in vitro, using human hair follicle dermal papilla and prostate cancer cells.

This review highlights the potential of inorganic nanoparticle-based scaffolds as innovative tools for advanced wound care, emphasizing their ability to provide antimicrobial action and regenerative support, while also discussing fabrication strategies and challenges in optimizing their clinical application.

In this study, researchers created a core-shell nanozyme, CeO2@ZIF-8/Au, which autonomously regulates ROS levels to efficiently eliminate bacteria, reduce inflammation, and promote wound healing by balancing ROS generation and scavenging in response to environmental conditions.

This research concluded that the novel hydrogel PlacMA, derived from human placenta and curable by visible light, shows promise for cell culture and tissue engineering applications due to its tunable properties.

The study found that exposing Arbas Cashmere goats to a short photoperiod significantly increased cashmere production by extending the anagen phase of hair follicles, with gene expression changes identified as contributing factors.

In this study, bromocriptine's inhibition of prolactin promoted secondary follicle development during anagen in cashmere goats, likely via changes in specific gene expressions, despite not affecting fiber characteristics or primary follicle activity.

This study demonstrated that cryogelation of human hair keratin allows the development of 3D scaffolds with tunable properties, supporting cell adhesion and proliferation for potential biomedical applications.

This study found that anisotropic osmolyte solutions may improve hair follicle turnover and condition in both in vitro and in silico models, as well as in human volunteers with hair disorders.

This paper critically reviews recent advances in the use of keratin-based biomaterials, highlighting their potential applications in wound healing, drug delivery, and tissue regeneration due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and ability to support cell growth.

This study found that azelaic acid entrapped in transethosomes exhibited enhanced antidermatophyte activity and improved treatment outcomes in guinea pig models of dermatophytosis compared to free azelaic acid.

In this study, researchers developed an acellular bioscaffold made from ovine tendon collagen with an antibacterial coating for treating skin wounds. They found that genipin crosslinking improves the scaffold's properties, and with plasma polymerisation, it enhances antibacterial activity, potentially benefiting wound healing.
