This study found that during dialysis, lower plasma-potassium levels were associated with hyperglycemia, suggesting potassium correction is vital when using glucose-rich dialysate.

This study found that the absence of Hes1 in hair follicles delays secondary hair germ activation and shortens the anagen phase, impacting HFSC self-renewal and long-term hair regeneration.

This study found that type II keratins in proliferating epithelial tissues are phosphorylated at a conserved motif during mitosis and stress, impacting keratin solubilization and reorganization.

This study found that patient-derived HGF significantly accelerates wound healing in diabetic mice, particularly improving skin structure and flexibility, and rHGF plays a key role in boosting hair growth.

In a keratinocyte-specific knockout mouse model, this study found that deleting GRK2 disrupted hair follicle homeostasis, causing cyst-like structures, abnormal growth patterns, and eventual hair loss, suggesting potential links to immune-mediated alopecias.

This article reviews the potential benefits of GHK-Cu, EAA, and water-soluble propolis for wound healing, skin tightening, and anti-aging effects, but reports no new clinical results.

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

This study identified two key pentapeptide quasi-repeats in human keratin-associated proteins, which are similar to motifs found in sheep wool.

This study found that keratin-associated protein nanoparticles extracted from human hair significantly reduced clotting time, suggesting their potential as a hemostatic agent for bleeding control, though further research is needed to understand their precise role in coagulation processes.

In this study, the KPAI and KP-IGA scoring systems for assessing keratosis pilaris showed excellent interrater and intrarater reliability, offering standardized measures for clinical and research use.

Diphencyprone initially increases mouse hair growth, then slows it, possibly due to changes in specific protein levels.

This study identified a new type II cytokeratin, named K6hf, exclusively expressed in the companion layer of the human hair follicle, distinguishing it from other keratins and suggesting a unique biochemical role.

This consensus report provides detailed recommendations for using Polynucleotides Highly Purified Technology™ in aesthetic skin rejuvenation, highlighting its potential as a biostimulatory booster for face and body revitalization.

This case series highlights the real-world challenges and experiences of US healthcare providers using pegvaliase for phenylketonuria treatment, emphasizing patient education on adverse events and dietary changes, and tailored titration schedules, while reporting that most patients achieved treatment efficacy despite initial adverse events.

This review discusses identifying keratosis pilaris, its common mimics, and its associated skin diseases across different skin tones but reports no new results.

This study found that taking oral FKH supplements for 90 days improved facial skin, hair, and nail appearance, and highlighted the role of free L-amino acids as potentially beneficial beyond their protein-building functions.

In this in silico study, researchers analyzed nonsynonymous SNPs in the LIPH gene linked to hypotrichosis and identified three potentially harmful variants (W108R, C246S, and H248N) out of 215 total, using sequence- and architecture-based bioinformatics techniques to differentiate between harmful and benign SNPs.

This review discusses the multifunctional role of PKM2 in promoting cardiac repair and regeneration, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target in cardiovascular medicine, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that the new HCC additive enhances the permeation of pigments and active ingredients into hair, suggesting potential use in developing functional cosmetic hair products.

In this study, procyanidin B-2 and C-1 were found to promote hair growth by selectively inhibiting protein kinase C, supporting their potential use for hair-growing activity.

This study developed a biobased copolymer called SELP::KP, showing improved hair strength, elasticity, and conditioning properties while being a safer alternative to conventional chemical treatments, based on application to human hair in a laboratory setting.

This study found that preconditioning adipose-derived stem cells with HB-EGF enhanced their ability to promote hair growth in vivo by increasing their motility, paracrine effects, and survival.

This study reported that recombinant human hair keratins, K37 and K81, showed higher purity and enhanced fibrin clot formation compared to traditional extracts, reducing bleeding time and blood loss in rat injury models.

In this study using mice and human keratinocyte cells, researchers found that activating PKM2-mediated glycolysis and Wnt/β-catenin signaling, particularly via combined treatments, significantly accelerated wound healing and induced angiogenesis in wound beds.

This study identified a new cytokeratin, mK6irs, specifically expressed in the inner root sheath of mouse hair follicles, distinguishing it as a member of the type II cytokeratin family.

This study found that different polypeptides, including KP peptide and hydrolyzed keratin, can improve the mechanical properties of damaged hair under varying conditions, with reduction environments and cysteine content influencing their effectiveness.

Intense pulsed light with radiofrequency showed mixed results in improving quality of life for hidradenitis suppurativa patients, with no clinical improvements.

In this study, combining Polynucleotides High Purification Technology with hyaluronic acid significantly reduced atrophic post-acne scar areas and improved Goodman-Baron scores in a majority of treated patients over six months, reaffirming the approach's beneficial effects in a real-world outpatient setting.

In this study, researchers confirmed linkage of a form of hair-nail ectodermal dysplasia to chromosome 12 in a Pakistani family, suggesting a possible non-coding mutation in KRTHB5 or a mutation in an unknown gene.

This review discusses the roles of human tissue kallikreins in skin physiology and pathology and reports no new findings, emphasizing their potential involvement in various skin functions and conditions.
