This study found that covalently binding antimicrobial agents to hair shafts provided antibacterial activity against dandruff and odor-associated bacteria, which remained effective even after several washes.

Nanocrystals improve alopecia areata treatment by better targeting hair follicles.

This review examines the design strategies for creating conductive hydrogels with adjustable properties for various biomedical applications, highlighting their potential for supporting cell growth, wound healing, drug delivery, tissue regeneration, and biosensing.

This study reported that intralesional triamcinolone acetonide was more effective than intralesional PRP for treating scalp alopecia areata, with minimal recurrence and side effects like atrophy and hypopigmentation.

This study found that both new and old formulas of DCP for treating alopecia areata resulted in similar hair regrowth, but tolerance was significantly better with DCP in isopropanol.

This work explores using a liquid crystalline phase to stabilize benzoyl peroxide nanosuspensions, suggesting a promising method to potentially reduce the side effects of acne treatments.

This study examined the effects of six surfactants on hair and scalp, finding varying irritation levels and impacts on protein denaturation and scalp turnover time, with AMT suggested as a good detergent.

This study found that a new hybrid polymer containing hydrolyzed protein and silicone effectively improved moisture feel and prevented discoloration in dyed hair, particularly benefiting damaged hair.

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 review summarizes numerous studies on adhesive hydrogels with natural antibacterial agents for wound dressings, highlighting their potential as effective treatments with strong antibacterial properties, biocompatibility, and mechanical performance, while minimizing reliance on antibiotics.

This study analyzed the swelling behavior of human hair during permanent waving treatment, finding that both the microstructure and macrostructure of intermediate filaments swell simultaneously at the initial stage, and while partially destructed by reduction, they are considerably restored through oxidation.

This study developed a carbohydrate chitosan-based biomaterial combined with a novel peptide to promote the chondrogenic differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells, suggesting potential clinical applications for cartilage regeneration.

In this study, researchers developed a biomacromolecular hydrogel to deliver plant-derived extracellular vesicles for treating androgenetic alopecia in a mouse model, which significantly improved hair regrowth and follicle density by activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling.

This study characterized keratin-based biomaterials that self-assemble into hydrogels, demonstrating their potential to achieve hemostasis in a lethal liver injury model through specific biomaterial-receptor interactions.

This study reports new fluorogenic ceramidase substrates and highlights RBM14C24:1 as an efficient substrate for neutral ceramidase, while RBM15C18:1 is the best probe for measuring ACER1 and ACER2 activities, potentially aiding high-throughput screening for ceramidase inhibitors.
