research Development of a Two-Dimensional Model for Predicting Transdermal Permeation with the Follicular Pathway: Demonstration with a Caffeine Study
Researchers developed a model that shows hair follicles increase skin absorption of caffeine by 20%.
research A Hierarchical Bayesian Hidden Markov Model for Multi-Dimensional Discrete Data
Non-denatured soybean extracts are effective for skin care, offering skin lightening, anti-aging, and UV protection benefits.
research Characterization and Localization of Side Population Cells in Mouse Skin
Mouse skin has special cells in the epidermis that decrease with age and are linked to keratinocyte stem cells.
research Differentiation of the sebaceous gland
The exact molecular mechanisms of sebaceous gland function are still unclear.
research Smad4-dependent desmoglein-4 expression contributes to hair follicle integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
research Long-term time-lapse multimodal intravital imaging of regeneration and bone-marrow-derived cell dynamics in skin
The study introduced a new imaging technology to track skin healing and bone marrow cell activity over time.
research Simulation of scalp cooling by external devices for prevention of chemotherapy-induced alopecia
Scalp cooling devices need to be powerful enough to overcome heat loss and reach the right temperature to prevent hair loss from chemotherapy.
research 626 Early-stage bilayer tissue-engineered skin substitute formed by adult skin progenitor cells produces an improved skin structure in vivo
Early-stage skin substitutes improve wound healing and skin structure.
research Investigation of the Morphologic and Scanned Electron Microscopic Properties of Wild Boar Bristles in the Balikesir Region
Wild boar bristles in Balıkesir vary in length and thickness but are unsuitable for species separation.
research Multimodal Ion Beam Imaging to Correlate Elements and Metabolites at the Micron Scale Using Water Cluster Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry and MeV Ion Beam Analysis
The method effectively images and correlates elements and metabolites in tissue samples at a micron scale.
research Local structure of human hair spatially resolved by sub-micron X-ray beam
Human hair has a new region with ordered filaments and the cuticle contains β-keratin sheets.
research The place of B‐mode ultrasonography, shear‐wave elastography, and superb microvascular imaging in the pre‐diagnosis of androgenetic alopecia
B-mode ultrasonography and shear-wave elastography can help predict androgenetic alopecia early.
research Homozygous Nonsense Mutation in DSC3 Resulting in Skin Fragility and Hypotrichosis
A boy's skin fragility and sparse hair were caused by a genetic mutation affecting skin cell adhesion.
research The Microanatomy of Human Skin in Aging
Aging skin shows thinner layers, fewer hair follicles, and new biomarkers like increased space between cells and smaller sebaceous glands.
research Investigation of hair shaft in seborrheic dermatitis using atomic force microscopy
Hair from people with seborrheic dermatitis is thicker scaled, more damaged, and thinner than healthy hair, and atomic force microscopy can help monitor the condition.
research Investigating the internal structure of sheep wool hair fibre using new microscopic techniques
Curly wool has more orthocortex than straight wool.
research Multiscale modelling of human hair
Human hair becomes weaker and stretches more easily at higher temperatures.
research Endogenous human skin equivalent promotes in vitro morphogenesis of follicle-like structures
Endo-HSE helps grow hair-like structures from human skin cells in the lab.
research Skin of the Baikal seal (<i>Pusa sibirica</i>, Phocidae): norm and pathology
Baikal seals' skin shows normal adaptations and potential pathologies possibly linked to climate change and a viral pathogen.
research Viewpoint 1
Understanding skin patterns can help us learn about skin diseases and their treatments.
research Sdr16c5 and Sdr16c6 control a dormant pathway at a bifurcation point between meibogenesis and sebogenesis
Sdr16c5 and Sdr16c6 genes regulate a key point in lipid production that affects eye and skin gland function.
research Enzyme-triggered on-demand release of a H2O2-self-supplying CuO2@Fe3O4 nanoagent for enhanced chemodyamic antimicrobial therapy and wound healing
A new nanoagent effectively kills bacteria and speeds up wound healing.
research AN UPDATED OVERVIEW OF POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder in women that can cause infertility and other health issues, and it may be improved by treatments that increase insulin sensitivity.
research Development of cosmeceutical cream for dermatitis and acne vulgaris
The cream effectively treats acne and dermatitis without causing irritation.
research Scalp immersion proxigraphy (SIP): an improved imaging technique for phototrichogram analysis*
SIP is a better method for measuring hair growth accurately.
research Improved two‐dimensional electrophoretic mapping of Japanese human hair proteins; application to curved and straight Japanese human hairs; and protein identification by MALDI MS and MS/MS quadrupole time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry
The study found that minor protein differences between curved and straight Japanese hair are unlikely to significantly affect hair structure.
research Comparative studies of the ultrastructure of the sebaceous gland
Sebum production in sebaceous glands is similar to hair growth, involving cell development and degeneration.
research Disulfide Cross-Linked Network Structure of Intermediate Filament and Matrix in Hair and Wool Cortices
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.
research Distribution of the Quantum Dot Nano-particles that Penetrate Skin and Distinction of Combined Osmium Tetroxide in Electron Microscopic Analysis
Quantum dot nanoparticles can penetrate skin and reach sebocytes through hair follicles.
