This study found that the purified compound VB1 from Vitex negundo seeds may reduce UVA-induced skin aging by targeting MAPK1 and demonstrated its potential in mice.

This study found that the protein OsUEV1B is essential for maintaining phosphate balance in rice, with Pi deficiency leading to its inhibition and causing overaccumulation of phosphate in mutants.

This study found that the ethyl acetate extract of Semecarpus anacardium leaves demonstrated cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cancer cells and induced apoptosis, suggesting potential as a cancer treatment with fewer side effects.

This study reports a unique case of common variable immunodeficiency with autoimmunity linked to a heterozygous S250C variant in the autoimmune regulator gene, suggesting a potential molecular basis for this combination.

This study found that UV radiation exposure increased protein elution and altered protein characteristics in hair fibers, suggesting environmental factors impact hair shaft proteins.

In this study, using tyrosine as a cross-linking agent for hair perming showed better initial results compared to commercial products, though efficiency decreased after washing without compromising hair strength.

In this study, PEG and keratin scaffolds selectively influenced protein release rates based on charge and size, suggesting their potential for targeted delivery of protein therapeutics.

This study reviews the emerging role of protein S-palmitoylation in dermatology, highlighting its impact on skin functions like inflammation and barrier maintenance, and evaluating its potential as a therapeutic target for skin disorders such as alopecia and psoriasis.

This study found that thiol disulfide homeostasis is balanced in male patients with androgenetic alopecia, though oxidative stress may be more prominent with emotional stress and vitamin D deficiency.

This study found that oxidative stress, measured through thiol/disulfide balance, is closely linked to the pathogenesis of telogen effluvium.

This study observed that keratose, derived from human hair, integrated well in mouse tissue and remodeled with collagen, suggesting potential as a non-toxic biomaterial for regenerative applications.

This article reviews the diverse roles of protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes in cancer biology, highlighting their potential as therapeutic targets, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that keratin derivatives with functionalized thiol groups improved binding to both natural and bleached hair fibers, suggesting a promising strategy for enhancing keratin's durability in hair repair.

This study found that thermal hair-straightening devices significantly damaged the cuticle and cortex of virgin Asian and Caucasian hair, with Asian hair experiencing more protein loss than Caucasian hair.

This study found that a new eco-friendly hair crosslinking method using visible light and non-toxic chemicals caused less damage and improved mechanical properties compared to traditional thioglycolic acid treatment.

This review summarizes the potential of N-acetyl-cysteine in managing diseases linked to redox imbalance, discussing its effects from cellular mechanisms to clinical applications, though further research is suggested for broader use.

This review discusses recent advances in protein immobilization on bacterial cellulose for various biomedical uses and reports no new clinical results.

This chapter reviews the anatomy and structure of hair, discusses hair damage and analyses, and explores methods for processing hair changes, but presents no new research findings.

This study found that novel thiol-reactive cross-linking agents, particularly APA, significantly improved the tensile strength and elasticity of human hair fibers by effectively regenerating disulfide bridges, with potential applications for advanced hair repair treatments in the cosmetic industry.

This review discusses the mechanisms and potential therapeutic benefits of mesenchymal stromal cell-derived extracellular vesicles delivered via biomaterials, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the impact of nutritional deficiencies on hair health, detailing how they can cause structural abnormalities, pigmentation changes, or hair loss; it presents no new clinical findings.

This study identified that a deficiency in the palmitoyl transferase enzyme, due to a mutation in the Zdhhc13 gene, led to severe physiological abnormalities in mice, including skin, bone, and systemic amyloid issues.

This study found that permanent waving treatment partially disrupts the α-helical structure in human hair microfibrils, primarily during the initial reduction phase, rather than just affecting disulphide bonds.

This study identified two evolutionarily conserved ultra-high-sulfur keratin proteins in human and sheep hair follicles, which are specifically expressed in the hair cuticle during the late stages of fiber development.

This review discusses various skin conditions linked with chronic kidney disease and highlights effective treatments but does not provide new clinical results.

This review discusses the potential of protein-based cosmetics, including keratin-based particles and fusion proteins, to improve hair properties such as strength and shape, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of diet in managing hair loss during menopause and reports no new clinical results; it highlights the importance of nutrients like sulfur amino acids, vitamins, and minerals.

This study found that bleached hair showed optimal protein structural integrity and tensile strength at pH 5, with significant changes in cross-linking, water content, and diameter at more alkaline or acidic levels.

This study found that keratin-associated proteins form part of the developing exocuticle and a-layer in hair fiber cuticle cells, while cornified envelope proteins were absent.

This review discusses how targeting protein degradation processes may help overcome cancer drug resistance, but reports no new clinical results and suggests further research for precise therapeutic strategies.
