This study identified two single-nucleotide polymorphisms and three haplotypes in the KRTAP7-1 gene across yak, taurine, and zebu cattle, with the BOVIN-KRTAP7-1*A haplotype most prevalent.

This study found that a hair-coating polyphenol complex significantly enhanced the mechanical strength, UV protection, and antistatic properties of damaged hair, suggesting potential benefits for hair treatment.

In this study, researchers suggest that hair follicle miniaturization in conditions like androgenetic alopecia may result from impaired conversion of quiescent stem cells to progenitor cells, influenced by the follicular niche, its collagen network, and various mechanical constraints.

This study reported that a new coating made with delaminated Ti₃C₂ MXene nano-sheets and a tea-derived compound effectively protects hair keratin from damage by providing UV screening, thermal dissipation, and antioxidation, while also enhancing mechanical strength and restoring wettability.

In this article, researchers explored how blue light exposure affects the scalp and hair follicles, highlighting oxidative stress and hair growth disruptions, while emphasizing the importance of protective strategies like antioxidants and limiting light exposure.

This review highlights the complex role of scientific knowledge and professional expertise in safely performing chemical hair procedures, emphasizing the importance of education to prevent potential adverse effects like hair damage and scalp irritation.

This review highlights morphological factors contributing to age-related alopecia and suggests further research to understand and potentially mitigate cellular aging processes affecting hair quality.

In this study, researchers observed that even a single session of hair dyeing can damage hair fibers, with significant worsening of mechanical properties and protein composition after three or more consecutive treatments, emphasizing the need to consider the cumulative impacts of dyeing on hair health.

This study demonstrated that a mechanical-chemical cascade involving dermal cell contraction and the activation of Piezo1 in epidermal cells is crucial for initiating interactions necessary for hair follicle regeneration in skin organoids.

Applying pseudoceramide improved skin and hair health.

Environmental, chemical, mechanical, and personal health factors can all damage hair and contribute to hair loss or changes in hair quality.

This study observed that six sessions of injections using a stabilized hyaluronic acid compound improved hair thickness, shine, density, and reduced hair loss in volunteers with moderate androgenetic alopecia, with excellent treatment tolerability and high satisfaction reported by 88.5% of participants.

This study analyzed the composition and cost of 50 cosmetic body scrubs for keratosis pilaris, finding that chemical exfoliants with glycolic acid may reduce symptoms by enhancing skin shedding and reducing water loss, but further clinical studies are needed to confirm their effectiveness.

This review discusses the psychological and social challenges of hirsutism in women and suggests that eflornithine cream may offer a small quality of life improvement for affected individuals, though with limited evidence.

This study found that the newly developed microarray patches for intradermal delivery of finasteride showed high drug content and significantly improved skin deposition compared to existing methods.

This study found that in mice, dermal adipocytes initiate inflammation and aid repair after skin injury by releasing lipids, suggesting a role in managing inflammatory diseases and impaired wound healing.

This study found that in a rat model of alopecia, combining low-level laser therapy with Neoptide treatment resulted in better hair regrowth compared to either treatment used alone.

This review explores the role of hyperandrogenism, including adrenal-derived 11-oxygenated androgen, in the development of polycystic ovarian syndrome and discusses potential therapeutic strategies targeting androgen excess, without reporting new clinical results.

This review discusses the potential of three-dimensional printed mesoporous scaffolds for drug delivery applications, particularly for bone cells and tissues, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found no structural differences between in vitro and in vivo grown hair, with keratinization and organization of keratin being comparable in both settings.

This study found that aging in Korean individuals is associated with changes in hair diameter and surface structure, as observed through atomic force microscopy.

This study found that in a rat model, 14,15-EET may alleviate central poststroke pain by enhancing thalamic inhibition through neurosteroid signaling, potentially outperforming gabapentin in early-stage treatment.

This letter discusses the state of laser hair transplantation as of its 1996 publication but reports no new findings or clinical results.

In this retrospective study at Lausanne University Hospital, 61% of 48 patients with tendinopathies reported favorable outcomes after a single standardized autologous PRP injection, while 36% needed two, and effectiveness was unrelated to platelet concentration, activity level, age, or gender.

This article proposes several potential approaches for scar prevention and therapy, including anti-transforming growth factor-β strategies and tissue-engineered skin, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that using three-dimensional cell culture with Matrigel enhances the biological function and stemness of stem cells, leading to improved soft tissue repair and healing by activating the host microenvironment and autologous stem cells.

This study demonstrates that polarized second harmonic generation imaging effectively monitors wool fiber stretching, revealing significant structural changes in keratin alignment that improve textile performance.

In this study, tubular 3D bioprinted structures made from sodium alginate and gelatin, containing NIH/3T3 fibroblast cells, demonstrated the ability for cell growth and network formation over 6 weeks, although structural tensile strength decreased with cell growth and polymer degradation.

Atomic Force Microscopy is a more accurate way to assess hair damage and the effect of cosmetic treatments.
