In this study, the authors found that a botanical extract with anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties stabilized hair loss and preserved natural hair pigmentation and strength over six months.

In this study, a computer-aided imaging system accurately measured the width of balding areas in female pattern hair loss, correlating strongly with clinical staging severity.

Keratin-based hydrogels from human hair improve wound healing effectively.

This study found that disulfide bonds in keratin increase its strength and toughness, with some loss of α-helical structure under load, highlighting their role in trichocyte α-keratin's mechanical properties.

This study found that hair follicle stem cells are stiff with high actomyosin contractility, while hair germ progenitors are soft and enlarge during quiescence, influencing hair regeneration; inducing miR-205 reduces contractility and activates regeneration in mice.

This study found that the tensile strength of curly hair is influenced by two main components, with springiness (toe region) contributing significantly, unlike in noncurly hair where it is negligible.

This study found that subthermal CRET treatment increased keratinocyte proliferation and modulated cytokine production, affecting the inflammatory response in human keratinocytes through EGFR and ERK1/2/NF-κB pathways.

This study found that a keratin film made from human hair supports enhanced cell proliferation and viability compared to collagen I, suggesting potential for cell culture applications.

This study found that low-molecular-weight hyaluronate significantly improved the mechanical strength and elastic modulus of overbleached hair by enhancing hydrogen bond networks within keratin.

This study presents a novel composite hydrogel dressing with berberine-loaded silk fibroin microspheres and Calotropis gigantea fibers, demonstrating enhanced antibacterial activity, mechanical strength, and wound healing capabilities in treating chronic and infected wounds.

In this study, researchers reported that hair follicle stem cells maintain quiescence through a PIEZO1-dependent mechanism that senses mechanical forces and translates them into localized calcium influx, involving a transcriptional network that regulates cell adhesion and cytoskeleton-related genes.

This study found that adding Platelet-Rich Plasma to Nanofat treatment for female pattern hair loss significantly increased terminal hair count and thickness after 6 months.

This review examined the pathological effects of mechanical pressure on human skin at the cellular level, highlighting how various skin cell types respond to pressure, potentially leading to pathological changes such as inflammation, ischemia, and impaired differentiation.

This study found that integrating graphene oxide into a biodegradable composite made from discarded hair keratin enhanced its structural properties, biodegradability, and gas barrier performance, indicating potential use as an eco-friendly packaging material.

This article reviews recent insights into the regulatory role of reactive oxygen species in plant development, highlighting that their mechanisms and signaling pathways remain partially understood.
