Androgenic alopecia causes hair follicle degradation and skin restructuring, but some hair elements remain.

This study explored the structure and function of lipocalin prostaglandin D synthase, revealing its dual role in substrate catalysis and as a lipophilic ligand carrier, potentially informing future drug delivery design.

The compound (NH4)2Mn0.17Cu0.83Cl4.2H₂O has a specific structure, shows weak magnetism at low temperatures, and undergoes phase changes at high temperatures.

Finasteride forms three new products under acidic stress.

This study found that specific mutations in the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 may significantly alter its structure and affect how it binds to certain inhibitors, but experimental studies are needed to confirm potential clinical implications.

This study demonstrated that an engineered human skin equivalent can generate follicle-like structures resembling fetal skin, highlighting the role of the dermal compartment in directing epithelial cell fate in vitro.

This paper reviews the genetic aspects of hair disorders and suggests that understanding these genes could advance treatment and diagnosis; it reports no new experimental findings.

In this study, individuals with a c.1072C > T mutation in the EDAR gene showed more hair shaft deformations compared to non-mutation carriers, highlighting EDAR's role in hair follicle development.

This study found that while yak belly hair is chemically similar to human hair, its higher porosity and lower mechanical strength limit its usefulness as a substitute in hair dye development.

This review discusses the unique characteristics and disorders of Asian hair, emphasizing the need for more comprehensive studies in this area.

This study proposed the existence of a membrane-like structure between the cuticle and cortex in human hair, which may provide strong protection against external stimuli.

This study reports that the new neighborhood face index (NFI) demonstrates a remarkably high correlation with the physiochemical properties of benzenoid hydrocarbons, highlighting its potential as a predictive tool.

The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.

This study demonstrated that using finasteride impurity as a non-isotopically labeled internal standard in paper spray ionization–mass spectrometry can effectively and efficiently measure finasteride tablet dissolution, achieving results comparable to high-performance liquid chromatography.

This study reported that albino Wistar rats exposed to chemical hair straighteners showed significant hair fiber damage and scalp skin deterioration, which worsened with repeated and prolonged application, highlighting the cytotoxic potential of these products and potential systemic risks.

This study found that while genetic ancestry affects physical appearance traits in Latin American populations, it accounts for only a modest portion of the observed variation.

This study found that JunB, a transcription factor, is crucial for maintaining epidermal-pilosebaceous stem cell homeostasis by regulating progenitor cell behavior and preventing sebaceous gland dysfunction.

This study proposed a network model for the cross-linked structure of keratin-associated proteins in hair and wool fibers, suggesting notable differences between the two, potentially affecting hair fiber elasticity.

In this study, after long-term observation of human scalp hair follicles over 16 years, the researchers found that a topical 5% minoxidil solution could stimulate hair regrowth after a period of dormancy, though with reduced growth rates and hair diameter.

This review discusses how physical appearance, including skin, facial features, and physique, is linked to aging and health risks, but reports no new experimental results.

This chapter reviews therapies for skin and corneal regeneration and hair loss, discussing various treatments but presenting no new research findings.

This review highlights various methods of stem cell communication that reflect the unique organization and function of different tissues and reports no new results.

This study used proteomic techniques to analyze human hair proteins, revealing keratin heterogeneity and identifying posttranslational modifications, such as cysteine trioxidation and methylation.

This study found that human scalp hair follicles can internally operate a Cori cycle, synthesize glycogen in the presence of lactate, and modulate growth through glycogen phosphorylase activity.

This study demonstrated that the Turing bifurcation, typically a pitchfork bifurcation under zero-flux conditions, becomes transcritical under fixed boundary conditions, highlighting the importance of considering boundary condition variations in morphogenetic analyses.

This study reported that the calculated and experimental electronic and vibrational properties of minoxidil were in good agreement, providing detailed insights into its molecular structure and thermal behaviors.

This study identified seven compounds from Cercidiphyllum japonicum twig extracts, including a newly discovered flavonoid, marking the first time these specific compounds have been isolated from this genus.

This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia showed distinct scalp bacterial imbalances compared to healthy individuals, which were associated with unhealthy lifestyles. These microbial changes might contribute to follicular inflammation, potentially accelerating hair loss in these patients.

This study analyzes contemporary theories and practices to understand key factors influencing the development of the examined phenomenon, proposing trends and practical applications for researchers and practitioners, while acknowledging study limitations and suggesting future research directions.

In this study, researchers found that high doses of rosemary extract given to lactating mother rats adversely affected their offspring, causing weight issues and damage to liver, kidney, and testis tissues, suggesting potential teratogenic risks if used during human pregnancy and lactation.
