In this study, researchers used the Modified Transient Plane Source method to measure the thermal conductivity of human hair, highlighting that common heat treatments can damage hair structure by altering its protein composition, emphasizing the importance of understanding thermal properties to mitigate such damage.

This study found that fluorescent antibody staining effectively differentiated between normal and tumor cells, with observed differences potentially linked to protein composition and developmental factors.

This review discusses oxidative stress's role in polycystic ovary syndrome and examines various biomarkers to understand its impact on the disorder's pathogenesis, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews dietary recommendations for managing polycystic ovary syndrome and provides evidence that diet changes can improve the androgen profile in affected women, but it reports no new clinical results.

Testosterone therapy aims to treat hormone deficiencies and various conditions safely and effectively, but requires careful patient monitoring due to potential side effects.

This study found that a mixture of plant extracts significantly improved skin barrier function, reduced inflammation, and exhibited anti-aging effects in human skin cells.

This article discusses how drug molecules integrate into hair fibers, focusing on biological transport mechanisms and physicochemical factors, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study suggests that the keratins found in reptile and bird skin appendages evolved independently from mammalian hair keratins, highlighting convergent evolution in these species.

This review summarizes the anatomical and physiological aspects of human hair and its clinical significance, but does not report new research findings.

This study detailed the structure and amino acid composition of sheep trichohyalin, noting its presence in various tissues and suggesting a possible functional role beyond structural support in hair follicles.

This article examines the role and composition of integral hair lipids in forming a protective barrier similar to the skin's epidermal lipid layer and reports no new findings about their effects.

This study found that palm oil treatment influenced the nutritional composition and enhanced the antifungal activity of banana and plantain peel ash extracts, suggesting their potential use as natural food preservatives or in treating fungal infections.

This chapter reviews the science and technology of hair fiber, exploring its composition, the impact of genetics and environmental factors, and recent advancements in hair care products, but presents no new research findings.

In this study, researchers found that a composition containing mannose-6-phosphate significantly reduced the total skin pore area by 24% in women after 56 days and by 30.2% in men after 7 days, suggesting its effectiveness in improving pore appearance by targeting dermal and epidermal modifications.

Hair fibers may have a unique, non-protein sheath not previously identified.

This research observed that Backhousia citriodora leaf extract effectively reduced sebum production and improved sebum composition across different ethnicities, significantly decreasing skin oiliness and the likelihood of shiny skin when used in a cream applied twice daily for 28 days.

In this study, researchers observed that graded calorie restriction in mice led to changes in stable isotope ratios and elemental content in bone collagen and hair keratin, potentially indicating intensified mobilization of endogenous proteins and altered bone collagen structure with increased dietary stress.

This study observed that in live rodents, actin filaments adjust their structure to facilitate membrane transfer between cellular compartments; linear filaments stabilize fused membranes, while branched filaments, connected by the protein Ezrin, drive integration, demonstrating actin's role in adapting to membrane biophysical changes.

This study found that adult mouse dermis can be reprogrammed by epidermal cues to resemble neonatal dermis, with changes in fibroblast proliferation and extracellular matrix composition.

In this study, the researchers found that the chemical composition and color of the brown seaweed *Saccharina latissima* varied significantly depending on the harvesting period, site, and cultivation method, suggesting that environmental conditions play a key role in these variations.

In this study, roasting fluted pumpkin seeds decreased moisture, crude protein, oxalate, and other anti-nutrients while increasing ash, crude fiber, carbohydrates, and certain minerals after 60 minutes, potentially enhancing their nutritional value.

This study found that nuclear androgen receptor expression was enhanced by dihydrotestosterone in rat gubernacular mesenchyme, but this did not affect muscle morphology or matrix composition during fetal development.

This review examines the potential of Cucurbitaceae seeds, such as those from watermelon, melon, and pumpkin, as sustainable and innovative ingredients in cosmetics, highlighting their rich bioactive composition and benefits for skin and hair, despite challenges like environmental instability and low permeability.

This study found that the acidic hair straightening formulation at pH 1.0 improved hair alignments and straightening effectiveness more than pH 2.0, but it weakened fiber strength and affected hair color and composition.

New patents include innovations in skin and hair care, disease treatment, plant stress tolerance, and protein purification.

This study concluded that transgenic somatic cell nuclear transfer technology can produce cashmere goat blastocysts carrying the K2.9 gene using specific fibroblast cells and activation methods.

This study found that Minoxidil had biphasic effects on normal human keratinocytes, stimulating proliferation at micromolar doses, but showing antiproliferative, pro-differentiative, and cytotoxic effects at millimolar concentrations.

This study observed that changes in amino acid levels in milk correlate with developmental events in pouch young marsupials, notably around hair follicle development and homeothermy onset.

In this study, researchers found that activating RORA in hair follicle stem cells reduced the expression of cytoskeleton-related genes, affecting cell migration and adhesion, which may aid in understanding hair follicle development and potentially inform alopecia treatments.
