Chemical treatments and light exposure damage hair proteins.
research Development of a Two-Dimensional Model for Predicting Transdermal Permeation with the Follicular Pathway: Demonstration with a Caffeine Study
Researchers developed a model that shows hair follicles increase skin absorption of caffeine by 20%.
research Skin Permeation of Curcumin Nanocrystals: Effect of Particle Size, Delivery Vehicles, and Permeation Enhancer
Smaller curcumin nanocrystals penetrate skin better, but additives and particle size affect absorption and accumulation.
research External Lipid Function in Ethnic Hairs
African hair has the most lipids, while Caucasian hair is more hydrated and stronger.
research Preparation, Optimization, In Vitro Evaluation and Ex Vivo Permeation Studies of Finasteride Loaded Gel Formulations Prepared Using Response Surface Methodology
The combination of propylene glycol and Tween® 80 improves finasteride gel effectiveness.
research In Silico Modelling of Transdermal Delivery of Macromolecule Drugs Assisted by a Skin Stretching Hypobaric Device
The simulation showed that hypobaric pressure improves drug delivery through the skin, but stretching alone doesn't fully explain the increase.
research Comparison of Artificial Sebum with Human and Hamster Sebum Samples
Artificial sebum L closely mimics human sebum for drug delivery research.
research Age-Associated Thin Hair Displays Molecular, Structural, and Mechanical Characteristic Changes
Older thin hair is not just thinner but also has different shape, structure, and stiffness.
research Influence of Chemical Permeation Enhancers on the In Vitro Skin Permeation of Minoxidil Through Excised Rat Skin: A Mechanistic Study
Urea, eucalyptus oil, and menthol improve minoxidil skin absorption.
research Transdermal Permeation of Drugs in Various Animal Species
Pig skin is a good substitute for human skin to measure drug absorption, but differences in skin structure and enzymes across species must be considered.
research A Composite Model for the Transport of Hydrophilic and Lipophilic Compounds Across the Skin: Steady-State Behavior
The model better predicts how water-loving and fat-loving substances move through the skin by including tiny pores and hair follicle paths.
research Contribution of the Hair Follicular Pathway to Total Skin Permeation of Topically Applied and Exposed Chemicals
The hair follicle pathway significantly affects how easily water-loving chemicals pass through the skin.
research Exogenous and Endogenous Lipids of Human Hair
Removing external lipids from hair reduces moisture and increases strength, while removing internal lipids decreases water permeability.
research Heat Enhanced Follicular Delivery of Isotretinoin to the Skin
Applying heat with certain chemicals can greatly improve how well isotretinoin gets into the skin through hair follicles.
research Viewpoint 4
Skin patterns form through molecular signals and genetic factors, affecting healing and dermatology.
research Biological and Mechanical Influence of Three-Dimensional Microenvironment Formed in Microwell on Multicellular Spheroids Composed of Heterogeneous Hair Follicle Stem Cells
3D microenvironments in microwells improve hair follicle stem cell behavior and hair regeneration.
research Ablative Fractional Resurfacing in Topical Drug Delivery: An Update and Outlook
Ablative fractional resurfacing could improve how well topical drugs penetrate the skin, but more research is needed to fine-tune the method.
research The Effect of Various Vehicles on the In Vitro Skin Permeability of Minoxidil
Different substances can affect how well the skin absorbs minoxidil, a hair loss drug. Caprylic acid helps the skin absorb it the best, followed by propylene glycol and water.
