This study found that a mutation causing Stormorken syndrome in mice led to skeletal abnormalities and unusual hair growth, showcasing the STIM1 R304W protein’s role in bone development and cell fate.

This study demonstrated that in genetic mouse models, the calcium sensor Stim1, not Stim2, is essential for sweat secretion in sweat glands.

This study reports that hair damage from bleaching is associated with the oxidative cleavage of fatty acid thioester bonds, detectable by measuring the decrease in mass spectrometry peak at m / z 76.

This study found that chemical treatments such as hair bleach and UV radiation significantly reduced the amount of 18-methyleicosanoic acid on the outer surface of human hair.

This study found that a conditioner treatment using 18-MEA combined with a specific cationic surfactant effectively restored hydrophobicity and reduced friction on damaged hair surfaces.

This study demonstrated the potential of a methodology combining ToF-SIMS and AFM to effectively analyze human hair structure and identify cosmetic residues, which can aid the cosmetic industry in product development.

This study found that monounsaturated oils like olive oil penetrate hair fibers effectively, whereas polyunsaturated oils typically do not penetrate beyond the cuticle.

This study investigated the penetration of a low-molecular-weight cationic conditioning compound into the hair cortex and suggests it may improve hair's fatigue resistance.

This study showed that the zinc finger protein GIS3 is important for root hair growth in Arabidopsis by regulating RHD2 and RHD4 genes, with application of ethylene and cytokinin helping restore root hair presence in mutated variants.

This review discusses the risk of central nervous side effects, such as dementia and depression, from drugs used to treat lower urinary symptoms related to benign prostatic hyperplasia, and highlights inconsistent evidence across different medications.

This study characterized bioactive compounds in extracts from six Kalimantan herbal plants, confirming traditional medicinal uses with findings such as triterpenoids and several potent compounds with antimicrobial and cardiovascular benefits, laying groundwork for potential therapeutic applications and conservation efforts.

This study found that ethyl acetate extract from peanut stems demonstrated very strong antioxidant properties and moderate cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 cell lines in in-vitro and in-silico settings.

This study suggests that the outermost hair cuticle surface is rich in 18-methyleicosanic acid (18-MEA), supporting previous findings of its multilayer lipid and protein structure.

This research describes using advanced mass spectrometry imaging techniques to analyze gunshot residue and map molecular components in biological samples, such as tumors and mosquito ovarian follicles, at unprecedented spatial resolution and specificity.

This review explored the chemical makeup and pharmacological effects of Lindera aggregata, identifying 349 components including sesquiterpenoids, flavonoids, and alkaloids, with various potential benefits demonstrated in vitro and in vivo, such as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

This study found that hydrogenated palm oil effectively conditions damaged hair by preventing water-induced swelling, with TOF-SIMS analysis showing that its component tripalmitin penetrates the hair's cuticle and outer cortex.

This review discusses the roles of store-operated Ca 2+ entry proteins in skin cell function and their links to various skin diseases, but it reports no new results.

This study found that deleting Stim1 and Stim2 in mature T regulatory cells disrupts Ca 2+ signaling, preventing their differentiation and leading to severe autoimmune disorders in mice.

This study reported the development of a workflow that combines SIMS and X-ray elemental mapping techniques for multimodal imaging at the single cell level, successfully applied to visualize elements, metals, and lipids in porcine skin without loss or delocalization.

This study found that unsaturated fatty acids are more abundant in the cortex of human hair than on its surface, and steryl glycoside-like lipids may help bind the cuticle to the cortex.

This study found that dietary pyridoxine increased hair follicle density in Rex rabbits by activating PI3K/Akt, Wnt, and Notch signaling pathways, which may promote hair growth and delay telogen onset.

This study investigates calcium and phosphorus accumulations in the hair of mummies from the Taklamakan desert and debates their exogenous or endogenous origin.

This study found that using a high-viscosity, high-amine-content silicone fluid as a pretreatment can protect hair from bleaching and dyeing damage without affecting these processes.

This study introduced a novel scarless healing material called pgPE, made from a porous UHMWPE nanomembrane, and found that it promotes complete skin reconstruction and hair follicle regeneration by alleviating hypoxia and modulating immune responses to foster scar-free wound healing.

This study found that bioconjugating 16-methylheptadecanoic acid (16-MHA) to damaged hair can mimic the protective properties of 18-methyleicosanoic acid (18-MEA), restoring the hair's structural integrity and moisture homeostasis, even after washing.

In this study, imaging techniques showed that nanostructured lipid carrier formulations distributed ascorbic acid more effectively across skin layers compared to conventional cream formulations, suggesting a better method for skin permeation.

This article presents Stemson Therapeutics' development of a stem cell-based approach to generate new hair follicles for treating hair loss, which remains in preclinical stages without tested human results.

This anatomical study on Eclipta alba concluded that unique secretory structures in stems and leaves may serve as identifying features of the plant and the Asteraceae family.

This review discusses mammalian models of epimorphic regeneration to define a vertebrate regeneration blastema, concluding that regenerative failure likely stems from cellular responses to the microenvironment after injury, not progenitor cell availability, and calls for targeted modification studies in mammals to advance human regeneration.

The researchers investigated the phytochemical content and pharmacological properties of Fissistigma oldhamii and found multiple compounds, primarily in roots and stems, that may contribute to the plant's traditional anti-inflammatory uses in China, including potential antioxidant, anticancer, and antimicrobial effects.
