This review discusses the use of Tisseel for stabilizing particulate grafts and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the need for further controlled trials.

This study found that the medication dyclonine has a potent inhibitory effect on the TRPV3 channel, effectively rescuing cell death and alleviating pruritus symptoms in a mouse model with gain-of-function TRPV3 mutations, suggesting potential for treating skin inflammation.

In this study, researchers developed an acellular bioscaffold made from ovine tendon collagen with an antibacterial coating for treating skin wounds. They found that genipin crosslinking improves the scaffold's properties, and with plasma polymerisation, it enhances antibacterial activity, potentially benefiting wound healing.

This review reports that biopolymer-based hydrogels show promise as wound dressings due to their biocompatibility, moisture retention, and ability to mimic the extracellular matrix, though challenges in mass production, safety, and clinical validation remain.

In this study, twice daily application of 3 μg/g calcitriol ointment was reported to be safe, effective, and well tolerated for treating moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis on the face and surrounding areas.

This study provided new insights into the complex and heterogeneous architecture of keratin filaments, revealing their dynamic and flexible structure through cryo-electron microscopy analysis.

This study reported that gels containing methyl cellulose exhibited the highest consistency factor and optimal homogeneity compared to those made with hydroxypropyl cellulose or its combination with pullulan, indicating the significant impact of gelling agents on gel properties.

This study found that keratin filament networks in SG1 cells of mice undergo dynamic changes during cornification, impacting the barrier function of the stratum corneum.

This study found that cefazolin-loaded silica nanoparticles embedded in polycaprolactone nanofibers successfully inhibited Staphylococcus aureus growth while maintaining stem cell viability, suggesting their potential use in wound healing.

This study presents recombinant human hair keratins K31 and K81, observing novel nanostructures from their self-assembly and emphasizing disulfide crosslinking's role in this process.

In this study, forming inclusion complexes of Finasteride and poly (ethylene glycol) resulted in significantly improved solubility and dissolution rates, suggesting a promising new solid form for enhanced drug release.

This study developed a multifunctional hydrogel, QTMP-Gel, which significantly accelerated wound healing in an oral mucositis hamster model by providing antioxidant and antibacterial effects, reducing inflammation, and controlling infection.

This paper contains author contact information and disclosures without reporting new research findings or results.

In this study, patients with active lymphocytic cicatricial alopecia showed significant improvement using a three-stage treatment regimen involving Tofacitinib, Apremilast, and Crisaborole, with 93.5% experiencing marked improvement and only three mild adverse events reported.

This study introduced a rapid rehydration approach for creating customizable, multifunctional hydrogel sensors, enabling precise detection of surface deformations and easy integration of layers, highlighting its potential for standardized and adaptable manufacturing of wearable devices.

This research found that hyaluronic acid increased cell proliferation and type I collagen more effectively than poly-L-lactic acid in both human fibroblast cultures and rat dermis.

This study observed unique ultrastructural changes in a 4-year-old girl with pili trianguli et canaliculi that may affect hair shaft surface characteristics due to inner root sheath alterations.

This study describes a method to create keratin hydrogels with adjustable erosion rates by mixing different ratios of keratose and kerateine, enabling controlled release of therapeutic agents like insulin-like growth factor 1.

In this study, researchers developed mango pectin-based hair gels for traction alopecia in black women, finding the gels exhibited beneficial properties for hair and good stability, suggesting potential as phytocosmetic treatments without common adverse effects.

This study found that combining a potent steroid with a vitamin D analogue may offer more convenient treatment for localized alopecia areata than using a superpotent steroid alone, with comparable efficacy but fewer side effects.

In this study, the type II subunit of porcine hair keratin was found to significantly inhibit the differentiation of PC12 neural cells compared to the crude extract and type I subunit, although cell proliferation was unaffected.

This case report describes a successful frontal region reconstruction using Cerament for a 50-year-old man, resulting in satisfactory forehead morphology and improved appearance four years post-surgery.

In this case report, a combination treatment of intralesional triamcinolone acetonide, oral acitretin, and topical clobetasol propionate showed effectiveness in reducing symptoms of Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lasseur syndrome in one patient over two months, with no new areas of hair loss observed.

This study developed two types of polymeric nanoparticles containing clindamycin phosphate for potential topical acne treatment and found that the NP-AH-CDM-4 formulation preferentially penetrated hair follicles even with sebaceous obstruction, suggesting its promise for more effective acne therapy without causing skin irritation.

This study found that using ionic liquid for specimen preparation allowed for observation of dermal papilla cells and their cilia in near-living conditions, reducing damage typically caused by conventional preparation methods.

In this study, proliferative and necrotizing feline otitis externa in four domestic shorthair cats improved with topical 0.1% tacrolimus treatment, despite previous ineffective therapies.

In this study, cricket-derived chitin successfully converted to nanochitin, which demonstrated improved physical properties such as higher transmittance and greater modulus compared to crab shell nanochitin.

In this study, cetirizine hydrochloride was formulated into niosomal and cubosomal gels, showing potential for off-label use in treating androgenic alopecia due to effective skin permeation and acceptable safety profiles; cubosomal gels exhibited superior permeation compared to niosomal gels.

The study concluded that poly(propylene carbonate maleate) microspheres effectively encapsulated finasteride, achieving a biphasic release with prolonged drug release over 5-6 weeks in vitro.

In this study, researchers developed a method using stencils to create controlled stiffness gradients in alginate hydrogels, revealing that stiffer regions within the gels promote deeper invasion by breast cancer cells, facilitating the study of mechanosensitive cellular behaviors.
