The 3D structure of a key hair protein was modeled, revealing specific helical structures and stabilization features.

Self-assembling RADA16-I hydrogels with bioactive peptides significantly improve wound healing.

Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.

Infrared and Raman imaging can non-destructively analyze hair structure and help diagnose hair conditions.

Different hair protein amounts change the strength of keratin/chitosan gels, useful for making predictable tissue engineering materials.

Liposomal systems show promise for delivering drugs through the skin but face challenges like high costs and stability issues.

Peptide hydrogel scaffolds help grow new hair follicles using stem cells.

Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L-PGDS) is a protein that plays many roles in the body, including sleep regulation, pain management, food intake, and protection against harmful substances. It also affects fat metabolism, glucose intolerance, cell maturation, and is involved in various diseases like diabetes, cancer, and arthritis. It can influence sex organ development and embryonic cell differentiation, and its levels can be used as a diagnostic marker for certain conditions.

Nanofiber scaffolds help wounds heal by delivering drugs directly to the injury site.

Using laccase to add poly(tyrosine) to wool makes it less likely to shrink and stronger.

Hair from breast cancer patients shows changes in structure and composition, and a test using these changes detected cancer but also falsely identified some healthy samples as cancerous.

Peptide hydrogels heal burn wounds faster and better than standard dressings.

The flap assay grows the most natural hair but takes the longest, the chamber assay is hard work but gives dense, normal hair, and the patch assay is quick but creates poorly oriented hair with some issues.

The study concludes that certain domains in Clostridium histolyticum enzymes are structurally unique, bind calcium to become more stable, and play distinct roles in breaking down collagen, with potential applications in medicine and drug delivery.

The conclusion is that using light-sheet fluorescence microscopy with a special solution can effectively create detailed 3D images of human skin for dermatological research.

Scientists created three types of structures to help regrow hair follicles, and all showed promising results for hair regeneration.

Human hair has different protein structures in its cuticle and cortex.

3D imaging of skin biopsies offers better accuracy but is time-consuming and can't clear melanin.

Mutations in the enzyme don't significantly change how it binds to its specific substances.

Researchers created early-stage hair-like structures from skin cells, showing how these cells can self-organize, but more is needed for complete hair growth.

New treatments for skin and hair repair show promise, but further improvements are needed.

Laser hair removal effectiveness depends on targeting hair structures without harming the skin, and improvements require more research and expert collaboration.

The skin's basement membrane has specialized structures and molecules for different tissue interactions, important for hair growth and attachment.

MRI can effectively image skin structures noninvasively.

Researchers found a new way to create hair-growing structures in the lab that can grow hair when put into mice.

The research reveals how early embryonic mouse skin develops from simple to complex structures, identifying various cell types and their roles in this process.

The study found that stem cells and neutrophils are important for regenerating hair follicle structures in mice.

Hair and wool strength is affected by the number and type of bonds in their protein structures, with hair having more protein aggregates than wool.

Permanent waving weakens hair by altering its protein structure.

Microspheres about 1.5 micrometers in size can best penetrate hair follicles, potentially reaching important stem cells.
