This study found that nanoplastics' aggregation behavior on human skin, influenced by factors like concentration, photoaging, and organic constituents, affects their penetration potential through sweat glands and hair follicles, highlighting potential dermal exposure risks.

This study reports that Echinacea-loaded silk fibroin/chitosan dressings may effectively promote scarless skin regeneration and accelerate wound healing compared to conventional treatments.

This study reports a method for fabricating biofunctional polymer fibers by using DNA-programmable cell-free protein synthesis integrated through solution blow spinning, enabling in situ protein production and potential applications in respirators, sampling swabs, and other advanced materials.

This study found that treating human hair with vitamin E and γ-oryzanol significantly reduced UV-B-induced structural damage, with γ-oryzanol providing greater protection, especially in female hair samples. The findings highlight these compounds' potential as cost-effective solutions for preserving hair integrity against UV damage.

This study reported that a new coating made with delaminated Ti₃C₂ MXene nano-sheets and a tea-derived compound effectively protects hair keratin from damage by providing UV screening, thermal dissipation, and antioxidation, while also enhancing mechanical strength and restoring wettability.

The device improved hair growth and thickness in men without side effects.

In this study, researchers developed a polyphenol–amino acid nanozyme capable of controlled hydrogen peroxide delivery, which effectively activated hair follicles via oxidative stress in a mouse model, suggesting a potential non-pharmacological treatment for alopecia.

This study evaluated a hair mask containing rice germ oil GX-N and ferulic acid on damaged hair and found that rice germ oil GX-N improved hair characteristics after bleaching, UV, and heat exposure, but adding ferulic acid did not provide extra benefits.

This study reports that novel nanofibrous dressings combining polylysine and tannic acid significantly reduce bacterial burden, support wound healing, and exhibit strong anti-inflammatory effects in infected full-thickness wounds, promoting near-complete closure and skin regeneration within two weeks.
