This study assessed three materials—L-arginine, hydrolysed keratin, and cystine-silanol copolymer—ex vivo for their potential to reduce undesirable effects of hair bleaching, such as damage to hair proteins.

This study reports that cannabinoid receptor type 1 may influence psoriasis development by modulating laminin-511 expression, suggesting a potential target for treatment.

This study suggests that the phenotype of melasma in women is influenced by structural and cellular changes across the epidermal-melanin unit, not just melanocyte hypertrophy, highlighting potential roles for dermal damage repair and fibroblast senescence.

This review provides an overview of the physiologic skin changes during pregnancy but reports no new findings, emphasizing the need for physicians to distinguish between benign and potentially pathological conditions.

This review highlights the potential of spanlastics, a new type of drug delivery system, to enhance drug administration by offering better deformability and stability compared to other nanocarriers, potentially improving targeted drug delivery across various applications.

This review summarizes the clinical characteristics of Behcet's disease, noting that ocular manifestations are a major cause of morbidity due to their potential to lead to severe vision loss or blindness.

In this study, researchers found that epithelial cells exhibit density-dependent metabolic heterogeneity, particularly in the pre-epithelial transition stage, where metabolic patterns correlate with cell proliferation and are influenced by actomyosin contractility.

This study found that combining a human acellular amniotic membrane with iPSC-derived epithelial stem cells effectively repaired skin defects and promoted hair follicle formation in nude mice.

This study found that the BIK1 gene in Arabidopsis thaliana modulates defense responses to pathogens and is essential for normal root growth and development.

This study found that electrospun poly(ε-caprolactone)/poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) blend fibers demonstrated nanometric dimensions and promising properties for drug delivery, with curcumin release linked to fiber morphology and processing parameters.

This study developed lipid-core nanocapsules for encapsulating menthol, improving its solubility and thermal stability, and demonstrated their safety and rapid skin absorption in ex vivo tests, highlighting potential applications for cosmeceuticals.

This study found that citrullinated proteins, which are implicated in rheumatoid arthritis, were abundant in outer membrane vesicles from Porphyromonas gingivalis but nearly absent in mutants, validating their approach to citrullinated peptide identification.

This study's simulations revealed the complex "onion-like" organization of a lipid nanoemulsion droplet containing vitamins A and E for skin delivery, showing distinct concentration patterns of these vitamins within different layers of the nanodroplet.

In this study, researchers developed hyaluronic acid derivatives functionalized with nitric oxide photodonors for light-activated skin treatments, finding that the compounds released NO under blue light and enhanced keratinocyte proliferation and migration, suggesting potential for therapeutic use.

This study found that treating SM-MSCs with 150 μg/mL IGF-1 led to the highest increases in growth factor proteins BMP-2, FGF-18, and TGF-β1 in their conditioned media.

This study found that combined dietary supplementation of sodium hyaluronate and eggshell membrane was associated with various improvements in skin and coat health markers in healthy Ragdoll cats.

This study reported that a decellularized porcine amniotic membrane hydrogel can alleviate inflammation and promote tissue repair in a UVB-induced skin inflammation model, suggesting its potential as a regenerative treatment for photodamage-associated skin injuries.

This study found that human dermal papilla cells are surrounded by a basement membrane-like extracellular matrix, which maintains their aggregated structure without strong cell‒cell contacts.

This study developed a model using homogenization-based framework to quantify solvent and solute flow across Janus membranes, aiming to better understand interface phenomena like osmosis and phoresis by examining micro- and macro-scale behaviors.

This study reports that transplantation of an ESCs-collagen-chitin biomimetic membrane leads to successful in situ skin regeneration, including hair follicle cell proliferation and formation of dermatoglyphs, in nude mice with full-thickness skin defects.

This review discusses the medical and dental applications of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), highlighting their potential for improving drug delivery and providing biocompatible solutions for medical devices, but reports no new clinical results.

This review assessed the potential of mesenchymal stem cell therapy to enhance burn wound healing, highlighting its capabilities in promoting angiogenesis, reducing inflammation, and regenerating damaged tissues, while identifying preclinical and clinical challenges that need addressing to optimize treatment outcomes.

This study suggests that a chitosan-coated omeprazole-loaded nanoemulgel formulation may effectively treat certain skin infections due to its demonstrated antimicrobial properties and enhanced antibacterial activity.

This review explores the role of the TMPRSS2 gene in facilitating SARS-CoV-2 infection and its potential as a therapeutic target in COVID-19 and other respiratory infections, highlighting challenges in developing selective inhibitors.

In this study, AgK114 was found to be transiently induced in hamster epidermal keratinocytes following skin damage, suggesting its role in the recovery process after injury.

This study suggests that in mice, plasmalogens may enhance hair growth by activating TRPC4 channels, which increases calcium influx and subsequently stimulates AMPK in hair follicles.

This study found that a cellulose membrane significantly shortened the healing time and reduced the ulcer area in patients with chronic venous leg ulcers compared to a standard antimicrobial dressing.

In this mouse study, researchers found that nanoparticles loaded with umbilical cord-derived stem cell membranes and minoxidil enhanced hair growth by improving drug solubility and transdermal delivery, increasing VEGF, IGF-1, MKI67, and CTNNB protein levels in skin tissue compared to regular minoxidil.

This article lists online educational resources from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons but reports no new research findings.

This study demonstrated that in a mouse model of androgenic alopecia, PLGA-DUT/siAR@DPCM nanoparticles effectively delivered drugs to hair follicles, suppressed androgen-related targets, promoted cell proliferation, and showed significant therapeutic effects with minimal adverse effects, suggesting their potential for clinical application.
