This study identified four proteins that differ between Type III and non-Type III hair in Yangtze River Delta white goats, contributing to understanding the development of high-quality brush hair.

This study's simulations suggest that replenishing free 18‐MEA could restore damaged hair surface properties, highlighting the importance of optimal fatty acid spacing for maintaining hair integrity.

This review discusses the acyl-CoA synthetase very-long-chain (ACSVL) enzyme family, including its biochemical characteristics, tissue expression, and involvement in lipid metabolism, but presents no new experimental results.

This study found that the acyl-CoA binding protein is essential for the production of very long chain free fatty acids in the stratum corneum and maintaining normal epidermal barrier function in mice.

This review discusses the role of acyl-CoA binding protein (ACBP) in the epidermal barrier, noting that its disruption in mice is linked to skin and fur abnormalities; it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, the expression of Gnαs was significantly higher in black mice compared to white mice, suggesting its potential involvement in coat color formation in mice.

This study identified key proteins, FKBP10 and FBN2, that promote the growth cycle of secondary hair follicles in cashmere goats, with higher expression in the anagen phase, offering insights into mechanisms potentially enhancing cashmere yield and quality.

This study found that mrp/plf-mRNA expression in murine skin increases in response to different tumor promoters, suggesting its potential as a short-term biomarker for chemical carcinogenesis.

This review examines the histochemistry and keratinization processes of human hair, exploring the structural roles of keratin proteins, protein chains, and lipids, but offers no new results.

This study suggests that human keratin fiber matrix has a well-defined nano-scale grainy structure rather than being amorphous, with grain size influenced by chemical treatments, temperature, humidity, and follicle-level factors.

This study found that the moisture sorption and desorption process can differentiate between cosmetic treatments of hair and provide insights into hair fibre structure changes, with bleaching causing greater symmetry breaking than perming.

This study found that using a bicomponent reduction system with TGA and DTDG for hair straightening limited hair damage by forming only thiol groups, while a TGA-only system formed more damaging mixed disulfide groups.

This study demonstrates that spatially resolved IR and Raman imaging can effectively reveal the molecular structure and composition of untreated human hair, providing insights into its chemistry and structural integrity.

This study found that overexpression of ovine β-catenin in transgenic mice increased hair follicle density by promoting the transition from catagen to anagen.

This study found that a shampoo containing quaternized wheat protein hydrolysate can effectively improve hair recovery by smoothing and compacting damaged hair surfaces, thanks to modifications that enhance protein adherence and disulfide bond formation at pH levels typical in hair care products.

This study identified that androgens increase calcium sensitization in mouse colonic smooth muscle by activating the Rho/Rho kinase pathway, highlighting its role in modulating muscle contractility.

This investigation found that certain supplements, particularly whey protein isolate, growth hormones, and anabolic steroids, can negatively impact hair loss by affecting biochemical pathways.

This research highlights dermatologists' concerns about the widespread use of sports supplements, noting that nutritional supplements associated with muscle-building and appearance enhancement can lead to dermatological issues like acne and alopecia, while potentially containing harmful substances such as undisclosed anabolic steroids.

This study suggests that MPZL3, a mitochondrially localized protein, may play an integral role in regulating hair follicle cycles, with potential therapeutic implications for hair growth disorders if findings translate to humans.

This research discusses the formulation of probiotic gel shampoos with whey peptides and plant extracts, highlighting their potential effectiveness and market feasibility in Ukraine.

This study found that a new hybrid polymer made from hydrolyzed protein, alkyl chain, and silicone helped prevent discoloration and improve moisture feel and manageability in dyed and damaged hair.

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.

In this study, BECD-treated wavy hair showed reduced undulation and improved straightening after drying, as BECD enhanced the contraction and rearrangement of molecular chains in non-keratin proteins, unlike untreated hair, which retained its wavy structure.

This study suggests melatonin may promote cashmere growth in Inner Mongolian cashmere goats through the nuclear receptor RORα, with a noted mRNA expression difference in December compared to other months.

This study constructed a hair follicle-specific expression vector for IGFBP-5 in Inner Mongolia Cashmere goat cells, allowing for future functional genetic analyses and potential use in nuclear transfer.

This study suggests that Rushton’s hyaline bodies form through both epithelial changes leading to hair keratin production and hemorrhage supplying erythrocytic substances, resolving previous debates about their origin.

This study suggests that caffeine may enhance hair growth and be beneficial for cosmetic applications due to its high binding affinity to keratin, but further validation is needed.

This study verified that a new straightening process involving a flat iron, ammonium thioglycolate, and hydrogen peroxide may permanently straighten wavy hair by eliminating disulfide bond distortions.

This study found that a dietary change in common marmosets significantly reduced in vitro erythrocyte haemolysis, improved skin lesions, and promoted complete fur regrowth, possibly due to increased vitamin E levels.
