This review outlines recent advancements in droplet-based microfluidics used with food-grade materials to create delivery systems, emphasizing the design and function of systems like emulsions and microcapsules while discussing challenges related to scaling these processes from lab to industry.

This study identified novel isoforms of the PADI2 and PADI3 proteins, showing that PADI2β inhibits oligodendrocyte differentiation, possibly by opposing the effect of canonical PADI2, while PADI3β modulates the activity of PADI3α, suggesting new regulatory mechanisms of citrullination in tissue development.

This study identified collagen XXII as a novel extracellular matrix protein specifically present at tissue junctions, where it functions as a cell adhesion ligand for skin epithelial cells and fibroblasts.

This study suggests that the interaction between folliculin and plakophilin-4 (p0071) may play a role in folliculin's tumor suppressor function by regulating RhoA signaling, impacting cell migration and junction formation.

This study examined the phytochemicals and antioxidant activities of methanolic extracts from Cameroonian Prunus africana bark and Leea indica and Paullinia pinnata leaves, identifying various phenolic compounds and significant antioxidant properties through multiple assays.

This study found that Magra sheep with high-luster wool exhibited significantly higher expression of keratin genes, suggesting that increased keratin protein levels may be crucial for wool luster.

This study found that exosomes and secretome derived from rat hair follicle stem cells show promising potential for wound healing and tissue repair, demonstrating significant wound closure and suggesting their broader applicability in regenerative medicine.

This study found that 17β-estradiol inhibited RANTES production in human keratinocytes by suppressing nuclear factor κB activity, suggesting a potential mechanism for 17β-estradiol's modulation of psoriasis-related inflammation.

This study found that differences in cashmere fiber diameter in Tibetan cashmere goats are associated with variations in metabolic, hypoxic, and stress response-related proteins, offering insights for breeding strategies.

This study found that human peptidylarginine deiminase type III is the predominant isoform in hair follicles and may modulate structural proteins during hair and hair follicle formation.

This study found that alkylation of kerateine cysteine residues created a cell-compatible method for controlling hydrogel erosion rates and therapeutic agent release in keratin-based systems.

This study suggests that keratin peptide signatures in human hair shafts could potentially be used to distinguish gender and ethnicity, though further research on a larger scale is needed.

This study found that the binding and release of BMP-2 from kerateine biomaterials are significantly influenced by pH and salt concentration, highlighting the potential for developing improved bone repair systems.

In this study, subcutaneous injection of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in burned rats significantly improved wound healing by reducing inflammation, scar formation, and wound size, and restoring normal skin structures.

This study found that pepsin digestion was more effective than trypsin at identifying keratin-associated proteins in human hair shafts and confirmed that trypsin introduced a bias in the analysis of protein composition that pepsin can correct.

In this study, researchers developed a new topical atraric acid formulation, AA-TF#15, which showed a significantly higher drug penetration and increased hair regrowth in mice compared to minoxidil and finasteride treatments, suggesting its potential effectiveness for treating scalp androgenic alopecia.

This study found that treatment with vitamin D increased the expression of LL-37 through the vitamin D receptor in cultured sebocytes.

This study reported that plant-produced basic fibroblast growth factor effectively promoted cell proliferation and collagen production in vitro, suggesting potential applications in cosmetics for antiaging and hair growth.

This study suggests that L-(+)-Tartaric Acid may support hair growth by up-regulating certain genes in human Dermal Papilla cells, making it a potentially useful additive in minoxidil formulations.

This study found that dual inhibition of BACE1 and BACE2 in mice affects melanosome maturation and causes dose-dependent hair depigmentation without altering retinal morphology.

This study presents a method using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry to quantify biotin in plasma and serum, and explores how high biotin intake can interfere with diagnostic immunoassays that utilize biotin-streptavidin technology, potentially leading to misdiagnosis of endocrine disorders.

This review discusses guidelines for androgen use in women and concludes that more research is needed before recommending testosterone due to insufficient evidence on safety and efficacy.

This review discusses the features of regulatory T cells and the modulation of Foxp3, emphasizing post-translational modifications' impact on Treg function but reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a new lignan and 21 known compounds from Asiasarum heterotropoides roots, with two compounds showing potential anticancer activity by influencing NO production, FOXP3 expression, and HIF-1α activity in vitro.

This study found that Thy1+ keratinocytes in the basal layer of the interfollicular epidermis play a crucial role in epidermal homeostasis and wound repair, with their ablation impairing these processes.

This letter discusses preliminary findings suggesting wrist actigraphy may be useful for monitoring sleep in cirrhotic patients, but emphasizes the need for further validation before replacing sleep diaries.

This study explored the stem of Moullava spicata and found it to be rich in secondary metabolites and natural antioxidants, showing significant concentration-dependent antioxidant activity, which supports its ethnomedicinal use and provides a basis for further pharmacological research.

This study found that Smad7 perturbs hair follicle development while promoting sebaceous gland formation by antagonizing Wnt/β-catenin signaling in transgenic mice.

The document concludes that using LC-MS/MS for measuring androgens is more accurate than older methods, but it needs careful validation and standardized references to be most effective.

This study found that methanolic extract of Cordia plathytyrsa increased testosterone levels in male rats but did not affect other evaluated metabolic parameters.
