The study found that a polymer treatment changes the charge on hair surfaces, making bleached hair smoother and less porous.

In this study, auricular electrostimulation effectively relieved dextran-induced pruritus in mice, comparable to loratadine treatment, and is attributed to down-regulating the H1R/TRPV1 signaling pathway and reducing inflammatory cells in the skin.

This study's molecular dynamics simulations suggest that electrostatic interactions mainly stabilize peptide binding to human hair keratin, with the protein's dielectric constant significantly affecting free energy calculations.

This study reported that novel kainate derivatives, especially ZCZ90, maintained potency in affecting proprioceptive sensory organ firing, aiding future receptor studies for potential treatment innovations.

This study reports that a new mouse model with a CARD14 mutation successfully mimics key human PRP symptoms, and anti-IL-17A antibody significantly reduces these symptoms.

Pityriasis rubra pilaris is a rare skin disorder with reddish-orange patches and thickened skin, needing better treatment understanding.

This study found that alopecia areata patients have higher odds of certain comorbidities like ulcerative colitis and vitiligo, while showing lower odds for conditions like hypertension and type 2 diabetes compared to healthy controls.

This study suggests that Ptprq in the hair bundles may exist as multiple isoforms that are differentially expressed throughout development and affect the organization of stereocilia in the chick inner ear.

In this study, the researchers aimed to evaluate the levels of substance P, folic acid, and ferritin in the serum of female patients experiencing hair fall and trichodynia.

This study found that tryptophan fluorescence in natural white hair is significantly weaker than in other unpigmented keratin fibers, possibly due to greater environmental UV exposure or unknown chemical interactions.

This study suggests that the dipeptide Pro-Ile has FGF18-like activity, can penetrate model human epidermis, and may have potential as a cosmetic ingredient for skin and hair regulation.

This article describes two cases of plica neuropathica, a rare hair condition involving severe matting, and discusses possible contributing factors and diagnosis methods while reporting no new scientific results.

This study suggests that the Grasp protein may play a role in regulating skin homeostasis following UVB exposure by influencing p53-mediated apoptotic responses in mice.

Substance P helps restore skin thickness and cell renewal when sensory nerves are reduced.

This study found that individuals with protein-calorie malnutrition, especially those with kwashiorkor, required significantly less force to pluck hair compared to well-nourished patients.

In this study, calcium imaging in transgenic mice revealed that non-neuronal TRPV4 in the skin enhances afferent signaling during electrical stimulation, suggesting a role for neuroimmune interaction in acupuncture signal initiation.

This study found that small proline-rich proteins modify the biomechanical properties of cornified cell envelopes in rodent forestomachs, potentially affecting the tissue's ability to withstand mechanical stress.

This study identified epiprofin as a highly tissue-specific nuclear protein that promotes cell proliferation, mainly expressed in the developing teeth, hair follicles, and limbs of embryonic mice.

In this study, certain cysteine residues in Romney sheep wool fibers were labeled more often during stretching tests, particularly under wet conditions, suggesting variability in their disulfide bond contributions to fiber mechanics depending on hydration.

In this study, the average force required to pluck hair was significantly lower in malnourished adults, especially those with kwashiorkor, compared to well-nourished individuals.

Older adults may experience painful finger pitting due to nerve changes in aging skin, and treatments can help reduce symptoms.

In this study, zinc chloride was found to be severely irritant to the skin in rabbit, guinea-pig, and mouse models, while zinc oxide, zinc sulphate, zinc pyrithione, and zinc undecylenate showed minimal to no irritancy.

This study reviews the complex keratinization process in the epidermis, detailing how various factors regulate keratinocyte differentiation and emphasizing the importance of understanding this process for the pathogenesis of skin disorders like ichthyoses and psoriasis.

The author believes that giving medical conditions official names can sometimes overwhelm or scare patients.

Melanoma risk tools need improvement, a gene mutation causes a hair disorder that might be treated by managing cell stress, a potential therapy for a skin-ear disorder involves blocking cell channels, skin wrinkling may indicate lung aging regardless of smoking, and oxidative stress might contribute to common baldness.

This study found that the absence of sebaceous glands may be an early factor in the development of keratosis pilaris, leading to hair shaft and skin barrier abnormalities, independent of filaggrin mutations.

This study shows that NIPP1 deficiency in mouse epidermis leads to hyperproliferation, hair loss, and chronic skin inflammation, which can be partially alleviated by dexamethasone treatment.

This study describes a method to extract and characterize keratin particles from human hair, finding they can encapsulate the anticancer drug Paclitaxel with significant efficiency, releasing it in a pH-dependent manner potentially beneficial for targeted cancer treatment.
