This study found that antisense oligonucleotides can significantly reduce androgen receptor expression in cultured human sebocytes and may offer new therapeutic possibilities for androgen-associated skin diseases.

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 developed a chalcone-based molecule that significantly increased tyrosinase inhibition and solubility, showing potential as a safe and effective skin depigmenting and antiaging agent, with supportive epigenetic and antioxidant properties observed in vitro.

This study found that washing hair after reduction in a permanent waving process allows for significant reformation of disulfide cross-links, enhancing the strength and elasticity of hair fibers.

In this study, researchers found that polysulfides in human hair keratin contribute to hair strength and antioxidant capacity, with sulfur supplementation enhancing hair strength and cuticle structure amid oxidative stresses such as UV radiation.

This study found that small proline-rich proteins modify the biomechanical properties of cornified cell envelopes in rodent forestomachs, potentially affecting the tissue's ability to withstand mechanical stress.

In this study, liposome-encapsulated thioglycolic acid improved hair perming by enhancing the penetration of perm solutions, resulting in a stronger S-shaped wave and higher cysteine content compared to the control.

Keratin structure changes during keratinization, but the exact model remains uncertain.

This study suggests that rat skin may synthesize minoxidil sulphate independently, implying the skin could contribute to minoxidil's hair growth promotion without help from the liver or other organs.

This study found that chondroitin sulfate levels were higher than hyaluronic acid in skin and hair follicle samples, with the highest concentration observed in prekeratin of hair follicles and wool fibers.

This study found that during dialysis, lower plasma-potassium levels were associated with hyperglycemia, suggesting potassium correction is vital when using glucose-rich dialysate.

This study found that adding certain conditioning agents, including jojoba oil and lauryl PEG/PPG‐18/18 methicone, to ammonium thioglycolate straightening emulsions protected Afro-ethnic hair from protein loss and improved resistance to breakage.

In this study, carboxymethylalanyl disulfide keratin was shown to effectively prevent hair damage during repeated bleaching and permanent waving treatments.

This study found that a novel thiohydantoin derivative, 3a, effectively inhibited androgen receptor activity in LNCaP cells and showed promising in vivo results by reducing testosterone-induced prostate changes, outperforming finasteride in mitigating prostate index and histopathological alterations.

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.

In this study, a novel injectable hydrogel with antibacterial and hemostatic properties showed promise in promoting the healing of MRSA-infected skin wounds.

This review discusses the biological effects and mechanisms of THSG in antiaging and related disease treatments but reports no new experimental findings.

In this study, reducing agents like ammonium thioglycolate, L-cysteine, and sodium sulfite in shampoo effectively decreased hair flyaway and frizz without causing damage, as no critical hair damage was observed in structural and tensile strength assessments.

Oxidized trichocyte keratin has a helical dislocation in its structure.

This study reports that 4-(alkylthio)- and 4-(arylthio)-benzonitriles showed moderate sebum reduction as androgen receptor antagonists when applied topically in a validated animal model.

This report describes a new case of isolated trichothiodystrophy with characteristic brittle hair and suggests a simplified classification scheme for understanding sulfur-deficient hair disorders.

This case report details two siblings with trichothiodystrophy, identifying reduced hair sulfur content as essential for diagnosis despite varied symptoms complicating recognition.

In this study, researchers identified a highly reactive, isozyme-specific sequence for TGase 3, contributing to understanding its distinct functional role and activity distribution in the mouse epidermis.

This study found that shikimic acid- and maleate-based hair repair agents modified the structure of hair fibers, though they did not increase disulfide bridge content in the hair cortex.

This paper discusses X-linked ichthyosis and its genetic causes, focusing on biochemical pathways and their role in epidermal differentiation and barrier function, but it presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that enzymatic conversion of Arg-51 in S100A3 protein to citrulline promotes homotetramer assembly, potentially increasing Ca²⁺ binding required for hair cuticular barrier formation.

In this study, researchers identified the antimicrobial peptide dermcidin in sebocyte lipid droplets, challenging the previous understanding of dermcidin as exclusively sweat-specific.
