This study observed that including cationic minoxidil particles in a shampoo facilitated notable hair growth promotion despite a negative surface charge after rinsing, likely due to ionic interactions with the skin.

This case report describes a patient who developed drug-induced lupus erythematosus after treatment with a monoclonal antibody combination against the SARS-CoV-2 surface protein, highlighting the need for careful follow-up.

This study explored non-invasive methods for monitoring low molecular weight biomarkers on the skin's surface, concluding that certain amino acid ratios, such as Phe/Trp, could serve as potential indicators of skin inflammation and cancer.

In this study, researchers observed that Sedum takesimense extract improved the surface properties, moisture retention, tensile strength, and wave formation of damaged hair compared to a water control, even after additional chemical and UV damage, suggesting its potential as a protective hair treatment.

This study found that most patients with burn scar alopecia chose to pursue multiple surgical treatments regardless of total body surface area affected or gender, highlighting the importance of personalized aesthetic goals in post-burn care.

The researchers reported that adding specific combinations of hydrolyzed proteins to silicone-free shampoo improved hair conditioning properties by reducing friction and increasing surface adsorption and penetration into hair, compared to protein-free alternatives.

This study found that scaffolds made from human hair proteins supported better cell growth and interactions than control surfaces, indicating potential use in tissue engineering.

This study found that nanoparticles developed with minoxidil-loaded thiolated β-cyclodextrins showed improved drug retention on hair surfaces and did not cause skin irritation in rabbits, suggesting potential for topical scalp disease treatment.

This study found that murine vibrissa hair follicle stem cells can be differentiated into corneal epithelial-like cells in vitro using limbus-specific microenvironmental factors, suggesting a potential therapeutic source for ocular surface disorders.

This study found that hair follicle-derived dermal stem cells and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells have similar growth, differentiation capabilities, and surface marker expressions, suggesting hair follicles could be accessible sources for mesenchymal stem cells.

This study found that the superior growth and higher zinc uptake of wild-type barley compared to its root-hairless mutant in zinc-deficient soil is mainly due to greater root surface area from root hairs.

This study successfully used ATR FT-IR spectroscopy to uniquely identify or differentiate human hairs by detecting specific spectral features associated with individual hair characteristics and cosmetic residues on hair surfaces.

This study introduced Scd3-Cre mice, which enabled sebocyte-specific manipulation, revealing that sebaceous lipid depletion impaired water repulsion, thermoregulation, and the ocular surface, resembling Meibomian gland dysfunction.

This study reports that a clinical sequence can help eye care practitioners identify Demodex mites, which are often underdiagnosed and undertreated in ocular surface diseases.

In this study, researchers developed a pH-sensitive dendritic polyglycerol nanogel to measure pH inside hair follicles using an ex vivo porcine ear model, finding that the pH increases from 6.5 at the skin surface to 7.4 in deeper follicle areas, without observed toxicity.

This study suggests that the optimum X-ray energy for microplanar beam radiation therapy to treat deep-seated tumors may range from 100 to 300 keV, based on therapeutic gain and surface dose considerations.

This study found that the 16th-century mummified hair from a female mummy in Paju was remarkably well-preserved, with the hair's ultrastructural features maintained likely due to a calcium-rich surface coat.

This review discusses pain management strategies for optical permanent hair removal, which causes pain due to the increase in skin surface temperature, but reports no new experimental results.

This study discusses the effects of incorporating various amino acids in hair care products, noting improvements in hair surface properties and color retention when integrated with conditioners.

In this study, AFM-based indentation was used to assess mechanical properties of murine skin wounds at two healing stages, revealing that early wounds exhibit stiffer hyperproliferative epithelium compared to granulation tissue, and highlighting significant influences of surface roughness on tissue stiffness measurements.

In this study, desmopressin-loaded elastic liposomes (ODEL1) showed improved permeation and drug deposition across rat skin by altering the skin's cohesive energies and causing reversible changes on its surface.

In this study, optical coherence tomography detected hair follicles at the dermoepidermal junction not visible on the scalp surface in alopecia areata patients, suggesting OCT may help monitor treatment response.

This study found that Tinea Corporis significantly impacts the quality of life of patients, with disease duration and body surface area involved being key factors.

In this study, while young rats fed a commercial standard diet with possibly deteriorated oil showed normal growth, they also exhibited liver surface changes and altered serum lipid levels compared to those on a defined diet.

This study found that in mice, Bacillus anthracis infections destroy hair follicles by progressing inward from the surface and clear when inflammatory cells disperse the bacteria after 3-4 days.

In this study, researchers identified a three-step process underlying age-related curved hair from cyclical extension: surface lipid transfer, specific disulfide bond cleavage, and unraveling of α-helices into β-structures, which may inform care strategies to manage hair curvature.

This study explored using keratin extracted from human hair waste to create biodegradable bioplastic films, revealing promising potential for applications in packaging and disposable items due to their uniform surface morphology and ability to degrade with keratinophilic fungi.

This study found that male and female hair specimens show structural differences, with female hair having a brown color at the distal end and smooth surface texture, while male hair is completely black and shows surface irregularities; these differences may aid forensic analysis.

This study investigated the physicochemical properties of polystyrene-b-poly(acrylic acid) nanovesicles coated with modified chitosans, finding that they can effectively control surface charge and potentially serve as drug delivery carriers with a 50.7% encapsulation efficiency for minoxidil.

This study found that while hair washed with hard water had higher magnesium deposits, it did not show significant structural surface changes compared to hair washed with soft water.
