This study found that medullary cell content in mammal hair evolves from an amorphous form to a biphasic phase, with human and anthropoid hair containing both macrofibrils and microfibrils.

This study identified that a deficiency in the palmitoyl transferase enzyme, due to a mutation in the Zdhhc13 gene, led to severe physiological abnormalities in mice, including skin, bone, and systemic amyloid issues.

In this study, low concentrations of DMSO were found to decrease androgen receptor expression and inhibit the migration of prostate cancer cells, suggesting potential as an anticancer therapy.

In this study, the authors identified and characterized the Get3d protein, conserved across plants and photosynthetic bacteria, which localizes to the chloroplast in Arabidopsis thaliana and potentially plays a role in tail-anchored protein targeting, linked to photosynthesis homeostasis.

This study examined the effectiveness of FT-Raman spectroscopy for detecting polymorphism in Lamivudine and Finasteride, highlighting its advantages over other methods due to its capability to provide sharp, well-resolved spectral bands and reduced sampling issues.

This research elucidates the molecular mechanisms underlying carbamazepine and griseofulvin's inclusion complex channel formations with polymers, revealing why carbamazepine forms stable channels independently, while griseofulvin requires polymeric support due to weaker interactions.

This research suggests that defects in keratinocyte differentiation due to putrescine accumulation in SSAT transgenic mice lead to skin changes and hair loss, and reducing putrescine can promote hair regrowth.

This chapter reviews various synthetic methods for creating pharmacologically active diazines, particularly focusing on pyrimidines, and discusses their potential in clinical applications. It also examines novel synthetic strategies that improve the drug-like qualities and safety profiles of these compounds.

This study observed that repeated perm treatments decrease disulfide bonds in hair due to their conversion largely into cysteic acid, affecting the waving efficiency depending on the reduction agent used.

This study concluded that bleach treatment partly transforms the hydrophobic top layer of human hair cuticles into a hydrophilic surface with clustered cysteic acid, visualized at the nano-scale using dynamic Chemical Force Microscopy.

In this study, researchers created a new molecular salt from minoxidil and 2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, finding it superior to raw minoxidil for promoting hair growth in a mouse model, suggesting it may be a promising candidate for treating hair loss.

In this study, researchers found that L-cysteine interacted electrostatically with anionic ions on the surface of keratin fibers in human hair, reducing the rate of disulfide bond disconnection at pH 9.0.

This study shows that microdiffraction experiments reveal structural layers in keratinous tissues, each with different keratin types, potentially explaining their dual role as mechanical support and chemical barriers.

This study used Density Functional Theory-based computational methods to analyze finasteride's molecular properties, finding that the GGA/PW91 method closely matches experimental data for vibrational frequencies and geometric parameters.

This study reported that certain minoxidil conjugates, specifically those with spermine, methylenedianiline, and diaminofluorene, were able to induce differentiation in HL-60 acute myeloid leukemia cells without toxicity at a concentration of 10 μM.

This study demonstrated that both HR isoforms are expressed in keratinocytes, but HRDelta1072-1126 lacks corepressor activity and may act as a coactivator by inhibiting HDAC recruitment to the VDR transcriptional complex.

This study reported successful recovery of biologically active recombinant murine Wnt3a without detergent, suggesting usefulness for structure-activity studies avoiding detergent-related issues.

This study introduces a novel visible light-mediated intramolecular [2+2] cycloaddition process that forms 6-azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes, offering a new synthesis route for bioisosteric mimetics used in drug discovery, potentially expanding medicinal chemistry applications beyond traditional limitations.

This study found that loss of integrin-β4 or its ligand, laminin-α3β3ɣ2, in keratinocytes increases differentiation via delamination, and demonstrated a role for hemidesmosomes in epidermal differentiation through both mitotic and non-mitotic mechanisms, influenced by Notch signaling.

This study developed a dissolvable microneedle system delivering specific molecules to remodel lymphatic networks and normalize metabolic processes, which accelerated hair growth and activated hair follicle stem cells in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia.

This review explores how recombinant protein hydrogels, employing molecular engineering and crosslinking strategies, offer advanced applications in regenerative medicine by mimicking extracellular matrix dynamics and providing enhanced mechanical, environmental, and biological properties.

This study found that non-toxic polycarboxylic acids can achieve satisfactory hair perming effects with limited strength loss, suggesting they have potential as a safer alternative to harmful perming chemicals.

This study suggests that myotonic dystrophies may qualify as segmental progeroid disorders due to molecular and clinical similarities with typical progeroid syndromes.

This study found that ZDHHC13 deficiency in mice is associated with abnormal liver function, lipid metabolism issues, and impaired mitochondrial function, highlighting ZDHHC13's regulatory role in liver metabolism.

In this study, researchers developed a coamorphous form of tadalafil and finasteride, showing improved solubility and dissolution in vitro, with results successfully translated in vivo in rats. They reported reasonable stability, suggesting this form could serve as a therapeutic alternative to the current marketed combination.

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 this study, researchers found that increased hydrogen sulfide levels in Arabidopsis disrupted actin dynamics through S-sulfhydration, leading to the depolymerization of actin filaments and inhibited root hair growth.
