This study suggests that the differences in aluminium tolerance between ET8 and ES8 wheat cultivars are linked to a complex suite of physiological mechanisms, including variations in malate and K+ release, Ca2+ homeostasis, and SV channel properties, rather than solely malate efflux.

This article explores how the integrated stress response and senescence-associated secretory phenotype influence stem cell fate decisions, highlighting their dual roles in both protecting and disrupting stem cell integrity.

This study demonstrated that gene-corrected 3D skin constructs from RDEB patient-derived iPSCs, grafted onto immunocompetent mice, showed normal collagen VII expression after two months.

This study found that human epidermal stem cells can adapt to small temperature variations via mTOR signaling, and that prolonged mTORC1 inhibition supports stem cell maintenance.

This study found that Polycomb repressive complex 1 is crucial for skin development and stem cell specification, influencing gene activity beyond its known repressor functions.

This study found that incorporating a block copolymer significantly alters the size and morphology of niosome drug delivery systems made of non-ionic surfactants and cholesterol, affecting their stability.

In this study, transiently activating the sonic hedgehog signaling pathway in chickens transformed reticulate scales on the feet into feathers comparable to body feathers, without ongoing treatment, suggesting this pathway affects the diversity of bird skin appendages.

New resin B makes artificial hair fibers hold curls longer than traditional resin A.

This study found that the PP2A-B55α regulatory subunit is crucial for ectodermal development in mice, with knockout embryos displaying severe neural and epidermal defects and failing to survive to birth.

In this study, a mechanical model was developed to describe and validate the effectiveness of overnight hair curling, suggesting that combining it with hair fixatives can maintain a desired curl for over a day.

This study analyzed the genetics of the patchiness phenotype in New Zealand rabbits and found that the gene KRT82, with identified SNPs in its promoter, may serve as a potential biomarker for breeding these rabbits.

This study introduces a method for determining the orientation of collagen fibers in skin by analyzing the anisotropic shape of hair pores, which may aid in skin grafting procedures.

This study developed a multifunctional, sprayable hydrogel with temperature responsiveness, showing strong antimicrobial properties against E. coli and S. aureus, antioxidant activity, and cytocompatibility, indicating potential for wound healing applications.

This review summarizes discussions from a 2010 stem cell biology meeting, covering the origin, behavior, and therapeutic potential of pluripotent and multipotent stem cells, without reporting new experimental findings.

This study found that dedifferentiated corneal epithelial cells can revert to a stem-cell-like state, aiding tissue homeostasis and repair, with this plasticity limited to the epithelial lineage and enhanced by niche-derived cytokines.

In this study, researchers found that the primary cause of slippage and detachment of keratin capsules in hair extensions is the re-contamination by oily residues from the hairdresser's hands, rather than the use of hair care products like masks or conditioners.

This review discusses the therapeutic potential of stem cells from postnatal tissues for regenerative medicine, emphasizing their paracrine effects and the pluripotent potential of very small embryonic-like stem cells.

This study explores torsional measurements of single hair fibers to differentiate the effects of cosmetic treatments on hair structure, highlighting their potential to reveal shear stiffness changes related to cuticle damage.

This study found that the twisted hair shafts characteristic of pili torti may result from uneven outer root sheath cell development, leading to irregular hair shaft modeling and twisting.

In this study, researchers found that the curliness of human hair is associated with an asymmetric structure at the cellular level, particularly in the differentiation of the precortex.

This study reports that Ca 2+ binding alters the dynamics and surface properties of PKD-like domains in Clostridium histolyticum collagenases, enhancing their stability and potentially aiding in collagen-targeting vehicle development.

This study assessed genetic variability and combining ability in winter squash for various traits related to yield and plant architecture, finding significant variability in eight traits and highlighting specific parents and hybrid combinations as promising for breeding programs focused on oil production.

This study demonstrates that a bioinspired peptide, PepACS, can efficiently and safely perm hair by interacting with keratin's sulfhydryl group without compromising tensile strength, and it shows potential for hair repair and dyeing applications in the hair care industry.

At a workshop highlighted during the 2025 ESPCR meeting, researchers discussed the challenges and variability in culturing skin-related cells, identifying key factors such as media composition and species differences that affect experimental reproducibility, and emphasized the importance of transparent practices to advance pigment cell research.

This article proposes a broad interpretation of tissue engineering as systematically controlling the body's cells, matrices, and fluids, suggesting many existing therapies may fall under this category.

In this study, researchers successfully generated functional and long-lived melanocytes from human embryonic stem cells, demonstrating their biocompatibility and high engraftability in mice, which may aid in developing treatments for pigmentary skin disorders.

This review discusses the variability of hair protein keratin in forensic hair comparison, focusing on species identification and individual discrimination, but it reports no new results.
