This study found that L-cystine-modified rabbit hair fibers had improved dye adsorption and spinnability, due to changes in secondary structure and surface characteristics.

In this study, chitosan-modified fucoidan/polyethylene oxide nanofibers were developed, showing promise as bio-scaffolds for tissue-engineered blood vessels by enhancing endothelial cell adhesion and inhibiting monocyte attachment.

This study observed that treating human hair with NaOH led to partially removed cuticles, resulting in better fiber cohesion and mechanical properties similar to wool, unlike bleach or formic acid treatments, which weakened the fibers.

In this study, a bioengineered construct using a biodegradable polycaprolactone mat cocultured with human keratinocyte and rabbit dermal fibroblast cells demonstrated potential as a tissue-engineered skin substitute, showing good cell adhesion and growth.

This review discusses recent advances in the development of electrospun pectin nanofibers for biomedical applications, highlighting strategies to improve their mechanical properties and biological functions and addressing challenges like material variability and regulatory issues.

In this review, the authors discussed the potential of hemp in cosmeceutics for skin conditions like acne and dermatitis, emphasizing its therapeutic properties and formulation challenges but noting the need for standardizing cannabinoid content and documenting effectiveness.

This study found that in semi-coarse wool sheep of the Ukrainian Carpathian Mountain breed, changes in microflora and grease composition are linked to increased felting in wool, due to wetter, more alkaline fleece conditions that promote bacterial and mold growth and alter fatty acid balances.

This study developed a portable electrospinning device that mimics hair for cosmetic thickening in a mouse model, showing performance comparable to benchtop models with added safety and cost benefits.

This study demonstrated that a metric based on rotational echo intensity in 2H magic-angle spinning NMR can derive kinetic information for conformational exchange without complex modelling, achieving activation barriers consistent with prior findings.

This study reports a method for fabricating biofunctional polymer fibers by using DNA-programmable cell-free protein synthesis integrated through solution blow spinning, enabling in situ protein production and potential applications in respirators, sampling swabs, and other advanced materials.

In this study, trichostasis spinulosa was observed in 51 patients with lesions on the nose, where some follicles contained up to 86 hairs each, possibly influenced by endocrine factors and actinic rays.

This study introduces a new test using a pendulum device to assess the bending stiffness of hair fibers, which can evaluate the effects of different hair treatments.

This study found that Cupiennius salei spiders have specialized mechanosensitive hairs on their legs that adaptively respond to joint movements during walking, suggesting a proprioceptive function.

African spiny mice can regenerate skin and hair after wounds due to specific tissue mechanics.

This study found that in wound-induced hair neogenesis, African spiny mice and laboratory mice exhibit different morphogenetic field formation patterns related to tissue stiffness, suggesting evolutionary developmental biology advantages.

This study examined patients with trichostasis spinulosa and identified distinct differences in the distribution and microscopic appearances of lesions compared to keratosis pilaris and eruptive vellus hair cysts.
