This study examined different polymersome systems for topical finasteride delivery and found that chitosan-decorated C7 polymersomes may enhance skin retention and provide controlled drug release compared to non-decorated systems in laboratory settings.

This study found that the diphosphonate ethan-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonat was the most effective compound in preventing calcifications in rats induced by DHT, compared to other phosphatase inhibitors and polyphosphates tested.

In this study, curcumin was efficiently loaded into PS–PAA nanoparticles at the formation stage, showing even distribution at low concentrations and good biocompatibility with human skin fibroblasts.

This study reports the first case of diverse medium-sized visceral arterial aneurysms in a patient with functionally impaired A20, potentially linked to HA20, and its atypical presentation in East Asia.

This study investigated the physicochemical properties of polystyrene-b-poly(acrylic acid) nanovesicles coated with modified chitosans, finding that they can effectively control surface charge and potentially serve as drug delivery carriers with a 50.7% encapsulation efficiency for minoxidil.

Chitosan-decorated carriers may improve topical finasteride delivery for hair loss treatment.

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.

This case report found that a patient with cutaneous polyarteritis nodosa experienced rare and severe manifestations, including digital gangrene and a breast ulcer, requiring aggressive treatment and resulting in below-knee amputation.

This study found that both acute and chronic exposure to nano polystyrene in laboratory rats disrupted hematological function, increased oxidative stress, and led to behavioral and physiological changes, like anemia-like effects and neurological disruptions, suggesting its potential as a cumulative toxicant.

This review summarizes that polyesters hold promise for vascular tissue engineering due to their mechanical properties and biodegradability, but optimizing their use in repairing damaged blood vessels remains challenging due to the complexity of vascular tissues.

This study found that biodegradable hyperbranched polyesters improved the solubility and loading capacity of hydrophobic drugs, with complete pyrene release achieved in 16 days under enzymatic conditions.

In this study, researchers developed a long-lasting antibacterial coating for medical implants by anchoring silver nanoparticles onto polyamide surfaces, demonstrating potential to improve implant safety and effectiveness by reducing infection and inflammation.

This study found that poly(butylene citramalate-co-butylene succinate) copolymers exhibit high toughness, recyclability, degradability, and biocompatibility, achieving complete wound healing with skin and hair follicle regeneration in 7 days.

This case report highlights that Tjalma Syndrome may present as a main symptom of systemic lupus erythematosus and should be considered in patients with ascites, pleural effusions, and elevated CA-125 levels.

In this study, hydrophilic EG7 PTK-UR foams promoted better wound healing and tissue integration in a porcine model compared to more hydrophobic PTK-UR variants and a polyester-based alternative, while matching a collagen-based standard.

This study found that using a microfiber towel to dry human hair better preserves hair keratin integrity and wear resistance compared to blow-drying or using a cotton towel, as indicated by stronger alpha-helix structure in FTIR analysis.

In this study, transcutaneously applied nanoparticles and viral vectors were shown to penetrate murine hair follicles, internalize in antigen-presenting cells, and induce immune responses, suggesting a promising approach for vaccine delivery.

This study demonstrates that human hair follicle stem cells can be cultured and expanded without major changes to their phenotypes, which suggests potential for use in regenerative medicine.

This chapter reviews skin manifestations in common rheumatic diseases, particularly those with polyarthritis, and offers a differential diagnosis of erythema nodosum without presenting new research findings.

This study observed that chitosan-decorated PS404-b-PAA63 nanoparticles may enhance skin retention and reduce permeation flux of finasteride, suggesting potential for improved transdermal delivery.

This review discusses nanoparticle-based topical delivery systems for treating skin diseases and presents no new clinical findings; it emphasizes natural polymer-based nanoparticles and future applications like targeted drug delivery.

This study found that keratin coatings from human hair may improve the colony-forming efficiency of human mesenchymal stem cells by moderating donor variability, suggesting a potential use in clinical applications.

This preliminary study found that poplar seed hair fibers have promising properties for use as environmentally friendly, lightweight insulation, with similar thermal resistance to wool and polyester despite being slightly less effective than down.

This study found that mouse embryoid bodies adhered quickly and differentiated efficiently into cardiomyocytes on negatively charged poly(sodium p-styrene sulfonate) hydrogels, similar to their behavior on gelatin-coated polystyrene.

In this study, lysocellin induced G1 phase arrest in human osteosarcoma cells, but diminished the cytotoxic efficacy of etoposide, while its derivative alopestatin may reduce etoposide-induced alopecia in a rat model.

This study found that human hair keratin coatings enhanced adhesion and proliferation of L929 mouse fibroblasts compared to uncoated and collagen type 1 surfaces, suggesting keratin's potential as a surface coating for cell cultures.

This study concluded that combining cyanoacrylate skin surface stripping with particle-based antigen delivery effectively targets HIV-1 p24 protein to skin cells, supporting its potential for needle-free transcutaneous vaccination.

This study achieved a first by successfully forming large quantities of dermal papilla spheroidal microtissues, which retained their hair induction potential, using a micropatterned culture system.

This review discusses inflammatory and medication-related nephrocutaneous disease associations and emphasizes the importance of timely referral to nephrology for early management, but it reports no new clinical results.
