This study found that incorporating CTA2-BADG, a modified hair-rebonding compound, into damaged hair significantly improved surface morphology and tensile strength by using charge-conversion chemistry to enhance penetration into the hair shaft.

This study describes a double embedding technique for preparing tangential sections of hair and wool fibers, recommending specific staining methods for quantitative analysis and demonstrating wool fiber cortical fractions.

This review highlights that Tremella fuciformis polysaccharide exhibits various bioactivities, such as antioxidant and immune-modulating effects, and explores its potential applications in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries.

This study introduced a novel exosome-loaded sprayable hydrogel (ADA-aPF127@LL18/Exo) that significantly enhanced wound healing in a deep partial thickness burn model, showing improved antibacterial efficacy and promoting tissue recovery processes like epithelialization and hair follicle regeneration.

In this study, researchers synthesized new surfactants with hair repair properties, finding that they effectively restored the hydrophobic barrier of damaged hair and improved combing ease compared to untreated hair, highlighting their potential in haircare products.

In this study, researchers developed mango pectin-based hair gels for traction alopecia in black women, finding the gels exhibited beneficial properties for hair and good stability, suggesting potential as phytocosmetic treatments without common adverse effects.

Applying pseudoceramide improved skin and hair health.

The researchers reported that hydrogels made from methacrylated glycol chitosan and hyaluronic acid with chondroitin sulfate may be suitable for load bearing soft tissue repair, showing enhanced chondrocyte viability and metabolic activity.

This study found that poly(butylene citramalate-co-butylene succinate) copolymers exhibit high toughness, recyclability, degradability, and biocompatibility, achieving complete wound healing with skin and hair follicle regeneration in 7 days.

The researchers in this study conducted a comparative analysis of hair and body shampoos, finding notable physicochemical differences, such as body shampoos having lower surface tension and higher foam heights, while hair shampoos were more acidic, potentially to meet different biological and sensory needs.

5% minoxidil foam helps women with thinning hair.

This study demonstrated that alkali-modified Kapok fiber significantly enhances the adsorption of collagen, suggesting its potential application in collagen-based dressings.

This study found that wool felting in Ukrainian Carpathian Mountain sheep is linked to significant changes in fatty acid composition, particularly highlighting a decrease in 18-methyleicosanoic acid in bound lipids, suggesting it as a potential marker for cuticle lipid layer damage during felting.

In this study, formulations of a typical lotion shampoo with ethanol or propylene glycol increased the in-vitro release rate of zinc pyrithione, an anti-dandruff agent.

This study found that the viscosity of silicone oil in hair treatments significantly affects wave curling performance and hair damage, with untreated and chemically treated hair showing different optimal viscosities.

Adding keratin to a mix of cow hair and plant-based plastic makes it stronger.

This study found that white hair demonstrated denser and more hydrophobic properties compared to black hair.

Once-daily 5% minoxidil foam increases hair regrowth and density in women with hair loss, but not as effectively as twice-daily 2% minoxidil solution, though it's safer and more convenient.

This study found that econazole nitrate delivered via MPEG-dihexPLA micelles significantly increased skin deposition compared to Pevaryl® cream, potentially enhancing drug bioavailability and clinical efficacy.

This study observed that hydrophobic modifications of hair matrix proteins significantly alter the humidity-dependent glass transition temperature of human hair.

This study demonstrated that FOXO3 influences feather follicle development in goose embryos by regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in dermal fibroblasts, resulting in changes to feather size and structure without altering follicle density.

This study developed keratin-based hydrogels with improved water solubility and tunable properties, demonstrating excellent cytocompatibility, suggesting potential for biomedical applications.

This study observed that surfactants in cosmetic treatments can bind to keratinous tissues like hair and nails, affecting their tensile properties and possibly leading to deterioration depending on the specific detergents used.

This study found that oxidative treatment with peracetic acid dissociates some disulfide bonds in human hair fibers while maintaining the crystalline structure, suggesting different mechanisms stabilize different regions of intermediate filaments.

In this study, AFM-based indentation was used to assess mechanical properties of murine skin wounds at two healing stages, revealing that early wounds exhibit stiffer hyperproliferative epithelium compared to granulation tissue, and highlighting significant influences of surface roughness on tissue stiffness measurements.

In this study, an Emulgel containing Tridax procumbens extract was formulated and found to have promising physical properties and antimicrobial activity for wound healing.

This model study describes how interactions between hair keratin and various materials alter hair's physical and mechanical properties by affecting noncovalent bonds.
