This study used proteomic techniques to analyze human hair proteins, revealing keratin heterogeneity and identifying posttranslational modifications, such as cysteine trioxidation and methylation.

This study found that in squamous cell carcinomas, the inhibition of the tumor-suppressor function of TAp73β by ΔNp63α occurs through promoter squelching, not direct protein interaction.

This paper discusses the adverse effects of finasteride, including sexual dysfunction and depression, and suggests that treatment customization based on individual factors like hand preference and sexual orientation could improve outcomes and reduce these side effects.

This review discusses the potential for surface-modified nanostructured lipid carriers to enhance hair regrowth by improving drug absorption and stability, focusing on their use with agents like minoxidil and finasteride for hair loss treatment.

This study found that finasteride competitively inhibits the enzyme AKR1D1 with low micromolar affinity but does not act as a mechanism-based inactivator.

Finasteride reduces alcohol withdrawal effects, especially in female mice.

In this review, the authors aim to improve the differential diagnosis between hyperandrogenic PCOS and NCAH, which could lead to more personalized treatment strategies for patients experiencing hyperandrogenism.

This study found that several newly synthesized dihydrobenzopyran compounds inhibited insulin secretion and had vasorelaxant activity, with some more potent than reference KATP channel activators, though compound 21 functioned as a Ca2+ entry blocker.

Finasteride metabolism varies by age, sex, and P450 inducers, with males processing it faster.

This study introduced a novel, weakly supervised method for segmenting hair in Scanning Electron Microscope images using simple image-level annotations, achieving over 30% improvement in mean Hausdorff Distance compared to Unet and SAM, while enhancing interpretability and refinement.

This study developed a method to culture and maintain chicken feather follicles in vitro, preserving structure and biology similar to their in vivo state, though some gene expression was altered.

This study investigated how vitamin A deficiency, certain diseases, and pregnancy affect cattle coat hair structure, finding notable keratin fibril interference under vitamin A deficiency and structural modifications in chronic renal failure, while pregnant cows exhibited superior hair tensile strength compared to non-pregnant ones.

This study reported that using 2D solid-state NMR techniques on extensively labeled mouse fur improves resolution in detecting chemical shifts and secondary structure features, potentially aiding the analysis of the effects of commercial or therapeutic treatments on specific amino acids.

This study reviews the embryological origins, anatomical and histological structure, and key functions of the skin, emphasizing its protective, sensory, and regulatory roles, as well as the social and psychological impacts of post-lesion changes.

This review analyzes the research on production delivery strategies using n-vehicle, highlighting recent developments and suggesting areas for future study, but it reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses the embryology, structure, and function of sebaceous glands and their involvement in skin disorders but reports no novel findings.

This study concluded that early-stage tissue-engineered skin substitutes, developed using skin progenitor cells, had a better graft efficiency and supported hair follicle formation, which may improve wound healing outcomes.

In this study, researchers found that bulge cells in mouse hair follicles undergo transient proliferation during early anagen, indicating their role as follicular stem cells. However, another factor beyond dermal papilla proximity may be required to initiate a new anagen phase.

This article reviews dietary recommendations for managing polycystic ovary syndrome and provides evidence that diet changes can improve the androgen profile in affected women, but it reports no new clinical results.

The study found that balding scalps have more thin hairs and larger oil glands, which might contribute to skin conditions related to hair loss.

In this study, researchers found that intestine-derived human alpha defensin 5 enhances wound healing, reduces bacterial load, and promotes hair growth in murine burn wound beds by increasing LGR stem cell migration.

This study found no significant proteomic differences in hair samples across racial or geometric groups in a culturally diverse South African cohort, highlighting the limited value of racial classification in precision medicine.

This study found that infrared thermography might be a useful non-invasive tool to help diagnose frontal fibrosing alopecia by identifying active phases of the disease.

In this study, transcriptome analysis suggested that lipid metabolism and apoptosis may be key factors influencing hair length differences between short-hair and long-hair rabbits.

This study observed that increasing the γ-kerateine content in meta-kerateine materials led to reduced elasticity, solidity, and hydrolytic stability, and decreased hepatocyte attachment support.

Terrestrial vertebrates have balanced keratin gene clusters, unlike teleost fish.

This review discusses age-related changes in scalp skin and their potential effects on hair follicle aging, but reports no new clinical results, calling for further investigation.

In this study, researchers found that the naked (N) gene in mice indirectly affects the synthesis of structural proteins in mouse hair, resulting in reduced high tyrosine protein content and unusual amino acid compositions.

This review discusses the complexity and genetic organization of human keratin gene clusters and addresses the ongoing need for an updated unified naming system; it reports no new clinical results.

The researchers reported that keratin 33A is a structural protein specific to goat cashmere hair, with increased winter expression in high-cashmere-producing breeds.
