February 2016 in “Cell Transplantation” Hair follicles have a more inactive cell cycle than other skin cells, which may help develop targeted therapies for skin diseases and cancer.
November 2024 in “Applied Sciences” The study investigates the use of wild strawberry waste as a sustainable source for cosmetic ingredients, focusing on a supercritical CO2 extract rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids. This extract shows potential for treating androgenic-related conditions like acne and androgenic alopecia by inhibiting 5α-reductase type 1 expression in skin fibroblasts. Although less effective than saw palmetto, the extract's eco-friendly production process, confirmed by a life cycle assessment, highlights its sustainability. The research underscores the feasibility of transforming agri-food waste into valuable cosmetic ingredients, promoting sustainability in the cosmetic industry. Further research is needed to fully understand the extract's composition and effects.

August 2021 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” The study by Rahim et al. (2021) investigated the role of polyamines in epidermal differentiation, focusing on the polyamine regulator AMD1. It was discovered that keratinocyte differentiation required a shift in polyamine ratios, particularly an increase in spermine levels facilitated by AMD1, which was essential for proper differentiation. This shift occurred through elevated translation of AMD1 mRNA rather than increased mRNA expression. The research suggested that manipulating polyamine availability could be advantageous in treating hyperproliferative skin disorders such as psoriasis and skin cancer. The study highlighted that the specific ratios between different polyamine species, rather than their accumulation, were vital for maintaining epidermal homeostasis and managing diseases.
