This study successfully established a transgenic sheep fibroblast cell line expressing the spider dragline silk protein gene, laying groundwork for developing transgenic sheep with this capability in hair follicles.

This study reviewed the efficacy of mechanical fractionation techniques to produce tissue stromal vascular fraction (tSVF) and found that tSVF injections are particularly effective for conditions like osteoarthritis and wound healing, with centrifugation before fractionation improving isolation efficiency regardless of preparation method.

This study found that androgen binding in male rat livers involves specific androgen receptors, which decrease with castration and are inducible in female livers with testosterone.

This study observed that mercury-lamp irradiation may cause cleavage of disulfide bonds in keratins of white hair, leading to the formation of thiols in laboratory settings.

This review discusses the potential of adipose-derived stem cell extracellular vesicles (ADSC-EVs) in skin regeneration, highlighting mechanisms like inflammation and angiogenesis, but reports no new clinical results; challenges and future prospects are also considered.

This study found that tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF) is an effective and safer alternative to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) for chronic hepatitis B, with fewer long-term side effects like nephrotoxicity and decreased bone density.

This study observed that chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis frequently experience dermatologic manifestations, with xerosis and white nail being the most common skin and nail changes noted in 74% and 56% of patients, respectively.

This study found that feminizing hormone therapy increased GFR in transgender individuals assigned male at birth, suggesting an effect of sex hormones on kidney hemodynamics, while masculinizing therapy showed a slight, nonsignificant decrease in GFR.

This study purified trichohyalin protein from pig tongue epithelium, characterizing its unique properties and structure, which may facilitate future functional research.

This study found that hair cosmetics have strong bacteriostatic properties, suggesting that current microbial test methods for these products should be revised.

This study explored the potential of human hair keratin as a filtration material, finding that it may effectively absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutanesulfonate. The researchers reported significant binding affinities through molecular simulations, supporting further investigation into keratin's use for water purification.

This study investigated the ability of a human hair keratin dimer to absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutane sulfonate, finding high binding affinities that suggest potential for hair-derived materials in water filtration technologies.

This review discusses the use of inorganic-based biomaterials for hemostasis and wound healing, including various preparation methods and mechanisms, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that MEGA PROTAC improved the prediction of ternary structures with higher maximum DockQ scores compared to the BOTCP method in 16 out of 22 test cases.

This study purified a transglutaminase enzyme from human epidermis that requires calcium or strontium for activity and forms cross-linked polymers, but its detailed activation mechanism remains unclear.

This study reports that biomass activated carbon fibers derived from metaplexis japonica seed hair effectively adsorb methylene blue dye, demonstrating high capacity and rapid adsorption performance.

This study found that the FIA-amperometric method for minoxidil quantification in pharmaceutical preparations provided accurate results comparable to the conventional UV technique, indicating no systematic errors.

In this review, cellulose-based nanofibers are highlighted for their potential in wound care, given their biodegradability, biocompatibility, and ability to enhance antimicrobial properties and drug delivery in wound dressings through modern fabrication techniques like electrospinning.

This study reported that a novel bilayer wound dressing made from PLCL nanofibers and keratin hydrogel, loaded with FGF-2, promoted skin healing and showed potential for use in skin tissue engineering.

This article reviews how normal pregnancy changes can mimic rheumatologic disorders, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing these from true autoimmune inflammation, but reports no new evidence.

Diuretics help the body get rid of excess salt and water by acting on the kidneys in different ways.

This case report describes a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus whose unusual nephrological presentation led to a diagnosis of C3 glomerulopathy, highlighting the importance of considering atypical findings to broaden diagnostic approaches.

In this study, creatine supplementation over 12 weeks showed no effect on androgen levels or hair follicle health in healthy young males, challenging the belief that creatine causes hair loss.

This case report highlights that macro-TSH, a rare condition causing falsely elevated TSH despite normal thyroid hormone levels, can lead to misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatment; identifying TSH antibodies and fractionation chromatography can prevent incorrect management, as demonstrated in a 19-year-old patient.

This study in childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE) patients found significant gender differences, with males exhibiting more serositis, higher anti-DNA antibody prevalence, and renal involvement, while females experienced more hair loss.

This study found that in South Asian women with PCOS, the severity of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is strongly linked to early renal dysfunction, as indicated by increased serum creatinine and urinary albumin levels, and reduced eGFR.

This study found that critically ill pulmonary patients with deficiency syndrome were at a higher risk of developing type 2 myocardial infarction than those with phlegm syndrome.

In this study, the application of Enriched and Enhanced Virgin Coconut Oil reportedly improved hair growth and reduced the appearance of scars in a teacher with cancer, suggesting benefits over typical post-chemotherapy recovery.

This article reviews the role of factor Xa inhibitors like Rivaroxaban and suggests they may eventually replace vitamin K antagonists, but their side effects require further clarification.

Mannitol diuresis allows higher doses of cis-platinum for testicular cancer treatment without increasing kidney damage.
