This study evaluated a levan-based polysaccharide, POLEVAN®, in shampoo formulations and reported that it significantly increased hair glossiness by 24%, allowed a reduction of surfactant content by up to 50% without affecting foam, and maintained scalp moisturization similar to hyaluronic acid in a clinical setting.

In this study, researchers identified a collagen fragment, sample-1707, expressed in E. coli, which forms nanofibers and promotes blood clotting, osteoblast differentiation, and skin cell regeneration, making it a promising biomaterial for skin care, with a large-scale production yield of 600 mg/L.

In a laboratory study, Grateloupia elata extract demonstrated antioxidant and anti-aging effects by scavenging free radicals, inhibiting collagenase and elastase, increasing procollagen production, and reducing MMP-1 secretion, suggesting its potential use in functional cosmetics.

This review explores the eggshell matrix as a potential sustainable and cost-effective alternative source for glycosaminoglycans, but highlights the need for further research to enhance extraction techniques and economic viability.

This study found that hair care products containing fermented papaya, fermented mangosteen, and caffeine significantly inhibited hair loss, increased hair density and thickness, and improved hair follicle structure in individuals with androgenic or diffuse alopecia over three months compared to placebo and caffeine controls.

In an animal study with a skin defect model, this research reported that curcumin-loaded hydrogels made from recombinant humanized collagen and an eco-friendly crosslinker enhanced wound repair by promoting angiogenesis, granulation tissue formation, and hair follicle neogenesis, while providing antioxidant benefits.

This systematic review found that topical adenosine may increase hair thickness and density while reducing hair loss, but the strength of evidence is low due to issues with trial design and sample size.

This review discusses various amino acid-derived plant defensive compounds and highlights their potential as drug leads due to their potent antimicrobial properties, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found significantly lower serum vitamin D concentrations in patients with alopecia areata compared to healthy controls, suggesting that vitamin D deficiency may be a risk factor for this autoimmune hair loss disease.

This study reviewed the role of probiotics in dermatological disorders and suggests they may help treat or prevent inflammatory skin conditions by modulating the microbiota, potentially reducing the need for steroids and antibiotics, though further research is needed to confirm efficacy and safety.

This study reported that a newly developed hydrogel composed of recombinant type I collagen and chitosan, incorporating a metal–polyphenol structure, demonstrated strong mechanical and healing properties, effectively promoting wound healing in a full-thickness skin defect model.

This study found hirsutism negatively affects quality of life and psychological wellbeing in women, suggesting effective medical treatment alongside psychotherapy might better address these issues than psychotherapy alone.

This review discusses advancements in stem cell therapy for cutaneous radiation syndrome, highlighting the potential of various stem cell sources to improve wound healing and reduce symptoms, but reports no new clinical results.

In a mouse model, this study found that LAM/TSC cells invaded the uterus and increased angiogenesis, while anti-EGFR antibody and rapamycin effectively reduced cell presence and blood vessel proliferation.

This study found that piglets' rapid growth during nursery and lactation was linked to changes in microbiota composition and increased cortisol conversion, highlighting critical early life factors influencing adult microbiota establishment.

In this review, researchers explore the roles of lactoferrin in skin and hair health, highlighting its potential anti-inflammatory and regenerative benefits despite the lack of well-controlled clinical trials for hair-specific outcomes.

This study found that combining prodigiosin and essential oil from Thuja orientalis leaves showed a synergistic effect against the 3rd larva stage of Cx. pipiens, significantly reducing acetylcholine esterase activity and altering midgut pH, compared to untreated larvae.

This retrospective study observed that breast cancer treatments disrupted normal blood counts and led to bone marrow suppression, highlighting the need for nutritional counseling to improve patient quality of life.

This article describes the follicular unit extraction method for hair transplantation, discussing its application, candidate selection, technique, outcomes, and the authors' experiences in over several hundred cases, without presenting new clinical results.
