This study observed that regular coconut oil users have significantly reduced hair irregularities compared to non-oil users, as quantified by a new "hair protection factor" metric, highlighting coconut oil's potential in minimizing hair damage.

This review highlights the potential of nanotechnology-based formulations in hair care and treatment, emphasizing how these innovative materials can enhance the stability, efficacy, and safety of active compounds while addressing the limitations of conventional formulations.

This study found that environmental conditions significantly influenced rabbit coat quality, while dietary linseed oil supplementation changed the fatty acid profile but did not improve coat thickness or heat protection.

This study found that microbial adenosine and biotin treatments derived from Staphylococcus epidermidis Cicaria culture may help inhibit hair loss by maintaining the hair's growth phase.

This review reports on the effects of aging on hair characteristics such as pigmentation, growth, and structural properties across genders and ethnicities, highlighting the importance of scalp health and suggesting cosmetic solutions to improve the appearance of aged hair.

This review reports that various bioactive compounds in Aloe vera demonstrate significant anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, and immunomodulatory effects, supporting its validated use in treating metabolic disorders, gastrointestinal recovery, dermatological conditions, and wound healing due to its nutritional and therapeutic properties.

This study highlights the severe health risks and dependence associated with non-medical androgen use among gym-goers, stressing the need for specialized primary care and harm-reduction strategies due to potentially fatal outcomes even after prolonged cessation.

This article outlines methods to study the skin and its molecular traits, focusing on interpretation and techniques applicable to mouse models, including diverse assays and approaches like electron microscopy and large-scale lipid analyses.

This study compared RNA-seq results from horse plucked-hair and skin-biopsy samples, finding that plucked hairs were enriched with hair-follicle keratinocytes, while biopsies showed enrichment for other cell types.

This study found that blocking autophagy in Atg7-deficient mouse hair keratinocytes altered the molecular composition of hair shafts by increasing the abundance of proteins involved in protein turnover while keratins remained unchanged, highlighting autophagy's role in reducing non-cytoskeletal protein concentrations in hair.

This study suggests that phytochemicals from natural sources could be safer alternatives to conventional treatments for hair loss, as they may activate key pathways involved in hair growth.

This review discusses the evolution and potential of non-invasive imaging techniques for diagnosing scalp diseases, highlighting their advantages and limitations compared to trichoscopy and scalp biopsy, the current diagnostic standards.

In this review, researchers explored the potential of cannabinoids, particularly cannabidiol, as a holistic treatment for acne vulgaris, highlighting their lipostatic, anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, and antimicrobial effects in modulating acne-related factors like sebum production and inflammation.

This review explores the diverse biotechnological uses of mushrooms, emphasizing their potential to enhance food, energy, and water security, and their alignment with the UN's sustainable development goals.

This article reviews cell proteomic footprinting technology and its application in improving the authentication and quality control of cell-based immunotherapeutics, without providing new clinical results.

This article reviews the functions and locations of skin stem cells and their role in regeneration and differentiation, relating age-associated skin changes to decreased stem cell functionality; it reports no new experimental findings.

In this study, researchers used SEM/SDD-EDS to identify waterborne minerals like calcium and aluminum in the scalp hair cuticle of individuals using treated or untreated water for hair washing, finding that prior application of coconut oil or conditioners can prevent calcium uptake.

In this study, researchers observed that underhairs in domestic cats were the thinnest and shortest with regular scales, while guard hairs were the longest and thickest, having irregular scales.

This review highlights emerging evidence that chemotherapy-induced alopecia may be driven by immune mechanisms similar to alopecia areata, involving hair follicle immune privilege collapse, and evaluates Janus kinase inhibitors as potential treatments, while cautioning about their immunosuppressive risks in cancer patients.

This study used advanced chromatographic and mass spectrometric techniques to develop a method for reliably detecting 17 hair growth compounds in consumer products, aiming to enhance regulatory compliance and ensure consumer safety against illicit compounds.

This study found that eyebrow follicles, as opposed to buccal swabs or nails, are the most reliable tissue for post-HSCT germline genetic testing due to lower donor DNA contamination.

This review emphasizes the importance of understanding hair follicle embryology, anatomy, and the hair cycle to effectively diagnose and treat hair disorders like alopecia.

This review discusses the off-label use of SSRIs to manage inappropriate sexual behavior in elderly dementia patients and highlights the unclear risk of post-SSRI sexual dysfunction, noting a need for high-quality clinical trials.

In this review, researchers explored hair as a promising tool for identifying biomarkers in schizophrenia, highlighting its potential for supporting personalized medicine through ease of sampling, though acknowledging challenges like individual variability and methodological inconsistencies.

This review details phenol's dermatological uses and underscores its potent skin rejuvenation effects but emphasizes the need for caution due to risks of serious complications, including cardiac arrhythmias and organ failure, particularly with improper use or large-area applications.

This review explores the potential of metal nanoparticles as innovative treatments for alopecia, highlighting their effectiveness in promoting hair regrowth, enhancing drug delivery, and modulating gene expression while also assessing the related experimental methodologies and regulatory considerations.

The researchers monitored various pollutants in real cosmetics industry wastewater and reported high removal efficiencies for parameters like Chemical Oxygen Demand and heavy metals through coagulation-flocculation, yet suggested that more effective COD treatment alternatives are necessary to better protect the environment and human health.
