This study found that a new 12-point scale provided a more precise measurement system for evaluating hair damage and improvement after hair care product use compared to a 5-point scale.

This study reports that some human cell surface HLA-I molecules (including HLA-B27) can appear without their usual peptide component, potentially altering immune interactions, influencing arthritis development in specific mice models, and exhibiting upregulation in certain cancer cells.

This study found that low temperatures and nitrogen deficiency trigger root hair elongation through a molecular mechanism involving the receptor kinase FERONIA and the TOR Complex 1.

This study found that skin surface lipids contain measurable mRNAs, providing a non-invasive way to study skin diseases, with specific gene expression changes observed in atopic dermatitis patients.

This study demonstrated that human hair can be coated with Fe3O4 nanoparticles, allowing it to be oriented and moved by a magnetic field, which may enhance drug delivery and hair care applications.

In this study, a polyphenol and biotin supplement improved skin roughness and significantly reduced hair shedding, but did not demonstrate clear superiority over placebo in overall skin outcomes.

This study validated that both tape-based and image-based methods for measuring head crown areas, and the CASLite NOVA as well as Image-Pro software for hair count, showed acceptable agreement, supporting their interchangeable use in hair care research settings.

This study developed a biodegradable nonwoven textile using a starch-based biopolymer and fruit extracts, resulting in materials that are stronger, more hydrophilic, and capable of releasing beneficial compounds over 72 hours, positioning them for potential use in medical, healthcare, and cosmetic applications.

This study found that treating damaged hair with maleic-modified amino silicone oil created a highly hydrophobic surface, reducing water content and improving hair's mechanical properties and thermal stability.

This study used atomic force microscopy to identify significant morphological differences in hair from patients with lichen planopilaris compared to healthy controls, noting more scratches, uneven edges, and pitted scales in affected hair, which may aid future research on the condition.

This study's simulations suggest that replenishing free 18‐MEA could restore damaged hair surface properties, highlighting the importance of optimal fatty acid spacing for maintaining hair integrity.

This review highlights the potential of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells as a cost-effective solution for tissue restoration and regeneration in ophthalmic and oculoplastic surgeries, addressing unmet needs in reconstructive procedures.

In this study, the researchers developed and optimized a bilayer tablet containing Tamsulosin and Finasteride, achieving sustained and immediate drug release with favorable release kinetics, including first-order and anomalous diffusion mechanisms, through in vitro testing.

This study found that pubic hair from Korean males has a thicker cuticle layer with more scales compared to scalp hair, offering better protection against chemical damage, and hypothesizes this evolved as a defense mechanism against exposure to urine and ammonia.

This study compared the effects of direct heat perms and softening heat perms on hair, analyzing damage and morphological changes to understand their impact on hair fibers and provide foundational data for future research.

This study found that using 3D total body imaging with convolution neural networks accurately identifies risk phenotypes for melanoma, suggesting improved objective stratification for early detection and prevention.

This study used molecular dynamics simulations to illustrate the complex molecular behavior of the hair surface F-layer, highlighting how fatty acids interact with 18-MEA under different conditions.

In this study, researchers found that topical mousse treatments containing chlorhexidine and other active ingredients showed significant antibacterial effects on both skin and hair in short-haired dogs, but mainly on hair in long-haired dogs, suggesting hair evaluations might overestimate skin-level efficacy.

This study found that after four weeks of daily use, the roughness of the hair surface significantly decreased, as shown through quantitative image analysis using HIROX.

This study explored microemulsion formulations for delivering finasteride through the skin, finding that higher water concentrations increased permeation, which may inform optimal transdermal delivery for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This review explores how adult skin epithelia preserve stem cell populations for hair follicle regeneration and wound healing, but reports no new experimental results.

This study suggests that increased use of anticancer drugs from 2004 to 2008 has led to higher environmental release, necessitating expanded monitoring and research on their ecotoxicological impacts.

This study identified a novel MTS24-positive murine keratinocyte population with increased colony-forming ability, suggesting these cells may serve as a new reservoir of proliferative progenitor or stem cells in hair follicles.

This chapter reviews surface plasmon resonance (SPR) methodology and its applications in basic science and human disease without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that the formation of the fibre cuticle surface in Merino sheep is similar to the epidermal stratum corneum process and not from a modified plasma membrane as previously thought.

This review outlines guidelines for designing Janus hydrogel bioadhesives, highlighting their potential to enhance clinical applications in tissue repair and regenerative medicine by mimicking natural biological barriers, although challenges remain in optimizing their asymmetric surface designs.

In this study, a dual recombinase-mediated genetic system showed that cavity macrophages accumulate on the surface of visceral organs during lung and liver injury but do not penetrate or contribute to tissue repair.

This study proposes using superhydrophobic surfaces to reduce protein fouling and enable self-cleaning in microfluidic devices, detailing preparation and quantification methods for these coatings.

This research found that immobilizing type I atelocollagen onto artificial hair significantly improved the adhesion and long-term fixation of the hairs in the human scalp, indicating high biosafety and enhanced tissue integration.
