This study concluded that bleach treatment partly transforms the hydrophobic top layer of human hair cuticles into a hydrophilic surface with clustered cysteic acid, visualized at the nano-scale using dynamic Chemical Force Microscopy.

This study comprehensively compared different crystalline forms of finasteride, including the new finasteride DMF solvate hemihydrate, to better understand their structural characteristics and intermolecular interactions.

This study assessed the potential for Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion power in Fiji, finding higher power output and efficiency during summer due to greater temperature differences between surface and deep sea waters.

This study found that Na CMC hydrogel loaded with PEG-coated silver nanoparticles demonstrated superior antibacterial and wound-healing efficacy compared to commercial silver sulfadiazine cream in a wound-healing model.

In this study, researchers optimized fast-dissolving tablets of nifedipine using a systematic approach, resulting in formulations that demonstrated rapid disintegration, enhanced dissolution profiles, and improved solubility, potentially improving oral delivery for patients requiring poorly soluble antihypertensive medication.

This review outlines the advancements in organ and tissue transplantation since the discovery of the human MHC and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, R-CSLM showed promise in evaluating hair shaft diseases by providing high-quality images of hair structures, although further development is necessary for follicle and perifollicular area analysis.

This review outlines various clinical methods for assessing ageing skin and discusses their application in supporting the efficacy claims of anti-ageing treatments, but it reports no new clinical results.

Hair treatments like bleaching increase friction by exposing tiny pores on the hair surface.

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 the medulla of Japanese hair contains unsaturated lipids such as squalene and oleic acid, which may contribute to hair glossiness.

This paper reviews various techniques for measuring the physical and mechanical properties of human hair fibers, emphasizing their importance in developing effective cosmetic products.

This review discusses the current research and development of mannosylerythritol lipids, particularly focusing on their potential commercial applications in cosmetics; it reports no new results.

This study reports that among men, skin surface hydration and pH change with age, but transepidermal water loss and sebum production show less variation.

Hair fibers interact through classical forces, which are influenced by treatments and products, important for hair care and other applications.

The study found that the Marangoni effect causes the uneven wetting of surfactant-coated hair due to the surfactant moving into the water.

This study reports that myoepithelial cells in submucosal glands can act as reserve stem cells, regenerating surface airway epithelium after severe injury through a mechanism involving Sox9 and Wnt signaling.

The researchers in this study conducted a comparative analysis of hair and body shampoos, finding notable physicochemical differences, such as body shampoos having lower surface tension and higher foam heights, while hair shampoos were more acidic, potentially to meet different biological and sensory needs.

This review discusses manipulating the stem cell niche as a strategy in regenerative medicine to repair damaged tissues, highlighting the potential benefits and challenges but reporting no new results.

This review discusses gender-linked skin differences, such as hormone metabolism and sebum production, and reports no new findings; it suggests these insights might inform male-specific dermatological treatments or cosmetic products.

This review discusses the development of electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds for promoting angiogenesis in tissue engineering but notes that their clinical application beyond bone and skin repair is still limited.

Dermoscopy is useful for many health professionals, not just dermatologists, in improving skin condition diagnoses and reducing unnecessary biopsies.

This review outlines the practical use of reflectance confocal microscopy in dermatology, detailing its applications and considerations for diagnosing various skin conditions, but reports no new findings.

This article reviews advances in the histologic evaluation of alopecia and hair-related disorders, without presenting new clinical results.

This study found that hair follicles from dogs with recurrent flank alopecia regenerated and regrew hair when grafted onto mice, suggesting systemic rather than local factors may drive the condition.

In this study, researchers used atomic force microscopy to capture and analyze morphological changes in the surface of healthy hair, identifying features such as pitting and rod-shaped macro-fibrillar elements, which could inform future research on hair conditions and care.

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 review updates on various methods for hair and scalp examination, encompassing non-invasive, semi-invasive, and invasive techniques, and reports no new results.

This study observed that skin pigmentation significantly attenuates bioluminescent signals in C57Bl/6 mice, complicating quantitative optical imaging and requiring consideration in experimental design.

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.
