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 article reviews the regulation and roles of spermidine/spermine-N(1)-acetyltransferase (SSAT) in polyamine metabolism and its potential as a target in cancer and other diseases, without reporting new experimental results.

This study found that a nonsense mutation in the Cst6 gene of mice leads to severe skin and hair abnormalities, suggesting that cystatin M/E is crucial for epidermal function and viability.

In this study, researchers identified a new dominant mutation in Hairless mice, called Pied, resulting from a deletion in the Adam10 gene, which causes freckle-like skin pigmentation by inhibiting melanocyte expansion.

This study found that a herbal formulation optimized with specific concentrations of plant extracts showed promising antifungal activity against Malassezia furfur.

This study found that in participants with notalgia paresthetica, 8 weeks of treatment with difelikefalin significantly improved itch intensity and increased the rate of strict complete response compared to placebo, starting as early as week 3.

This study found that a finasteride topical gel formulation using propylene glycol and Tween® 80 showed significantly enhanced permeation compared to a control formulation without these enhancers.

This study identifies a strong association between a 505-bp indel mutation in the FGF5 gene and cashmere growth in goats, suggesting potential use as a genetic marker in breeding programs.

This study used Density Functional Theory to calculate finasteride's molecular properties, finding the GGA/PW91 method aligns well with experimental data and identifying key reactive sites for chemical interactions.

This study found that the L457(3.43)R mutation in the human luteinizing hormone receptor increases phosphodiesterase activity, reducing hormonal response despite elevated basal cAMP levels.

In this study, sublingual tofacitinib achieved a longer estimated half-life than oral administration in treatment-resistant alopecia areata patients, potentially supporting daily dosing; overall treatment response was modest.

This study found that increasing a drug's lipophilicity and adding ethanol to the donor phase can enhance its delivery to the hair follicle, although the precise transport mechanism remains unclear.

This study observed slight variations in follicular unit graft density among different Asian populations in the donor areas used for hair transplantation.

This case report details a child with a specific TNFAIP3 mutation manifesting as a severe SLE/SS phenotype, expanding the known phenotype for this genetic variant.

This study found that double transgenic Arabidopsis plants overexpressing both AVP1 and AtNHX1 showed improved salt tolerance and enhanced root hair and hypocotyl growth compared to single transgenic lines.

This study found that hair from mice with the Naked trait mutation has significantly lower levels of glycine and tyrosine, suggesting a deficiency in a specific protein fraction.

This review covers the current and potential medical uses of semifluorinated alkanes, including applications in eye surgery, drug delivery, and oxygen transport.

This case report describes a 69-year-old man diagnosed with folliculotropic mycosis fungoides after initially being treated for folliculitis, highlighting emerging skin lesions despite subsequent photochemotherapy and acitretin treatment.

This study demonstrated that urea significantly accelerates the diffusion of poly(ethylene imine) into bleached human hair by increasing the diffusion coefficient twofold.

This study presents a validated questionnaire, the FFA-QLI, which effectively assesses and differentiates the quality of life impact among patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, showing greater sensitivity in identifying severe cases than the DLQI.

This study found that an anti-atopic lotion containing fucoidan helped heal skin damage in hairless mice with atopic dermatitis by reducing skin thickness and modulating immune responses.

This study found that the repressive histone mark H2AK119ub links inhibitory FGF signals with the quiescent state in hair follicle stem cells, revealing a signaling-epigenetic axis crucial for maintaining stem cell quiescence and tissue homeostasis.

In this study, the release rate of Finasteride from Eudragit matrix tablets was found to be significantly influenced by the drug/Eudragit ratio and polymer viscosity, with formulation F9 being the most effective.

This review hypothesizes that excessive facial photo-protection may contribute to frontal fibrosing alopecia by disrupting immunological homeostasis through the aryl hydrocarbon receptor-kynurenine pathway, but it reports no new clinical results.

Testosterone boosts fluid and electrolyte secretion in seminal vesicles, aiding sperm function.

This poetic narrative reflects on themes of grief, memory, and aging, without presenting new empirical research findings.

This case report describes a patient with a severe pruritic rash and hair loss in both axillary regions, with no fluorescence under a Wood's lamp and hair follicle-centred papules observed through dermoscopy.

This study developed a new analytical method to identify a wide range of endocrine disrupting compounds in full-term amniotic fluid, revealing diverse substances with potential endocrine activity.

This study found that new folate salts in aqueous and lipophilic solutions can penetrate skin and enhance wound healing in vitro by converting metabolically, suggesting their potential for topical application.
