This study found that extensive cuticle damage from diperisophthalic acid oxidation did not alter the tensile properties of human hair, suggesting that these properties are mainly due to the cortex rather than the cuticle.

This study found that mice lacking sPLA2-IIE had distinct skin abnormalities, particularly affecting hair follicles, highlighting the differing roles of sPLA2 isoforms in mouse skin.

This study found that AIRE, a usually nuclear protein, is expressed in the cytoplasm of human epidermal and follicular keratinocytes and associates with the intermediate filament protein cytokeratin 17, potentially impacting ectodermal abnormalities in APECED syndrome.

This study found that mice with a mutation in the Zdhhc13 gene exhibited increased susceptibility to skin cancer, highlighting a potential protective role of palmitoyl acyltransferase in skin carcinogenesis.

This study found that inhibiting AP1 transcription factor activity in the suprabasal epidermis of mice alters keratinocyte gene expression, reducing barrier integrity and mimicking human keratoderma.

This study of African-American women found that those perceiving greater hair breakage showed lower break stress and higher premature failure rates, linked to grooming practices and hair curvature.

The study found that a polymer treatment changes the charge on hair surfaces, making bleached hair smoother and less porous.

This symposium discussed why regenerative capacity varies among species and diminishes with age, exploring how these insights could inform regenerative medicine approaches, without presenting new experimental results.

This article reviews various methods and introduces new imaging technologies to assess the effects of hair shaping treatments on hair chemistry and structural integrity, without reporting clinical results.

This study found that bleached hair showed optimal protein structural integrity and tensile strength at pH 5, with significant changes in cross-linking, water content, and diameter at more alkaline or acidic levels.

This review highlights recent genetic research advancements in understanding hereditary hair diseases but reports no new study results, emphasizing the identification of genes related to both monogenic and polygenic hair disorders.

This study found significant structural and compositional differences in hair affected by alopecia areata compared to healthy hair, using a range of physico-chemical investigation methods.

This study observed that mice with a whole-body deficiency of Cystathionine-β-synthase developed severe hyperhomocysteinemia and related mild symptoms without increased mortality, indicating HHCy may not directly cause end organ damage.

This study found that pretreatment with KP-Cryst fusion proteins effectively protected Asian and Caucasian virgin hair from thermal damage by maintaining higher water content and preventing structural changes during heat application.

This article reviews the role of keratins in epithelial function and structure, discussing their involvement in growth control, organelle functions, and pathomechanisms of disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reviews the structural and functional aspects of cell-cell and cell-matrix junctions in sebocytes, emphasizing their roles in sebocyte differentiation and sebum secretion, and how these processes may change in pathological conditions, potentially providing insights for new skin disease therapies.

This study suggests that BLMP-1 is important for timely molting and oscillatory gene expression in C. elegans, indicating a potentially conserved mechanism for rhythmic skin regeneration.

This study found that while all hair removal techniques increased axillary erythema and skin dryness, shaving caused less erythema but more dryness than plucking or waxing, without affecting post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or other skin properties.

In this study conducted in female mice, maternal Faecalibacterium pathobionts combined with a low-fiber diet increased systemic inflammation and skin problems in offspring, suggesting a link to atopic dermatitis and the influence of dietary trends on chronic conditions.

In this study, the use of internal wool lipid liposomes was shown to improve the lipid composition and increase the resistance to breaking in both untreated and chemically treated hair fibers.

In this study, D6D knockout mice showed severe deficiency in AA and DHA, leading to unexpected effects on skin health, fertility, and immune cell development.

In this study, researchers observed significant variations in the hierarchical structures of domestic cat hairs and whiskers, showing that local mechanical properties are influenced by the distribution and composition of internal granules and calcium enrichment along the hair's length.

This study found that hair follicle gene expression varies between Angus and Brahman cattle and responds to growth-promoting treatments, which may reflect breed differences in adaptability to cold stress.

This study introduces "Homeodynamic Rejuvenation" as a method to restore the skin's resilience by enhancing its ability to detect and recover from stress, focusing on five core biological processes critical for maintaining skin function and health amidst environmental and metabolic challenges.

This study found that treating human hair with vitamin E and γ-oryzanol significantly reduced UV-B-induced structural damage, with γ-oryzanol providing greater protection, especially in female hair samples. The findings highlight these compounds' potential as cost-effective solutions for preserving hair integrity against UV damage.

This study reported that a bioderived melanoidin/tannic acid nanocomplex forms a durable, antioxidant-active coating on hair fibers, providing enhanced UV protection and improving tensile resilience by suppressing oxidative stress and activating endogenous antioxidant pathways.

This study found that biotinoyl tripeptide-1-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles significantly improved thermal protection in hair, enhancing cuticle integrity and resistance to heat damage, compared to control samples.

This study suggests that herbal hair dyes, using natural pigments, may provide a safer, eco-friendly alternative to traditional synthetic dyes, although their effectiveness depends on application technique and botanical purity.

This study found that scalp cooling effectively prevented visible hair loss in over half of patients undergoing highly alopecia-inducing chemotherapy, yet cognitive appraisal of the treatment had a more significant impact on quality of life than the actual degree of hair retention.

In this study, BTP-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles were developed and shown to protect hair from heat-induced damage by enhancing cuticle integrity and thermal resistance in simulated thermal straightening conditions.
