research Design and synthesis of novel androgen receptor antagonists with sterically bulky icosahedral carboranes
New compounds with carborane showed anti-androgen effects similar to flutamide.
research The adsorption behavior of cationic surfactant onto human hair fibers
A certain surfactant sticks to human hair, making it change from water-repelling to water-attracting, which could help in hair conditioning.
research Development and characterization of polymeric nanoparticle-based formulation of adapalene for topical acne therapy
The new adapalene formulation using TyroSpheres is more effective and less irritating for acne treatment.
research Microneedle Arrays Combined with Nanomedicine Approaches for Transdermal Delivery of Therapeutics
Microneedle arrays with nanotechnology show promise for painless drug delivery through the skin but need more research on safety and effectiveness.
research Understanding the Nano‐topography Changes and Cellular Influences Resulting from the Surface Adsorption of Human Hair Keratins
Human hair keratins improve cell adhesion and growth on culture surfaces.
research Contribution of the Hair Follicular Pathway to Total Skin Permeation of Topically Applied and Exposed Chemicals
The hair follicle pathway significantly affects how easily water-loving chemicals pass through the skin.
research Hydrogel-Forming Microneedles in the Management of Dermal Disorders Through a Non-Invasive Process: A Review
Hydrogel microneedles offer a painless, effective way to treat skin disorders.
research Interactions between Crossed Hair Fibers at the Nanoscale
Hair fibers interact through classical forces, which are influenced by treatments and products, important for hair care and other applications.
research Degradation of Hair Surface: Importance of 18-MEA and Epicuticle
18-MEA and cationic surfactants can restore and maintain hair's hydrophobic nature, improving its beauty and feel.
research The effects of particle properties on nanoparticle drug retention and release in dynamic minoxidil foams
Particle properties affect drug retention and release in minoxidil foams, with lipid nanoparticles having higher loading capacity.
research Regulation of Receptor Binding Specificity of FGF9 by an Autoinhibitory Homodimerization
FGF9 controls which receptors it binds to through a process where two FGF9 molecules join, and changes in FGF9 can lead to incorrect receptor activation.
research Electrospun Scaffold of Collagen and Polycaprolactone Containing ZnO Quantum Dots for Skin Wound Regeneration
The new wound dressing helps skin heal faster and fights infection.
research Analysis of hairless corepressor mutants to characterize molecular cooperation with the vitamin D receptor in promoting the mammalian hair cycle
Certain mutations in the hairless protein disrupt its ability to regulate the hair cycle.
research Exogenous and endogenous lipids of human hair
Removing external lipids from hair reduces moisture and increases strength, while removing internal lipids decreases water permeability.
research Optimization of LC method for the determination of testosterone and epitestosterone in urine samples in view of biomedical studies and anti-doping research studies
Researchers developed a reliable method to measure testosterone and epitestosterone in urine for medical and anti-doping use.
research Chapter 4 Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
research Spatial Probing of the Properties of the Human Hair Surface Using Wilhelmy Force Profiles
Human hair surface varies in wettability, showing daily and monthly patterns.
research Hair surface interactions against different chemical functional groups as a function of environment and hair condition
Hydrophobic interactions affect virgin hair, while electrostatic interactions are key for bleached hair.
research Prevention of lipid loss from hair by surface and internal modification
Surface and internal treatments can help prevent hair lipid loss during washing.
research In vivo penetration of bare and lipid-coated silica nanoparticles across the human stratum corneum
Lipid-coated silica nanoparticles penetrate human skin more deeply than bare silica nanoparticles.
research Incubatory environment of the scalp impacts pre‐emergent hair to affect post‐emergent hair cuticle integrity
An unhealthy scalp can damage new hair, but using ZPT shampoo can improve hair health.
research Niosomes as Carrier in Dermal Drug Delivery
Niosomes are a promising and effective way to deliver drugs through the skin.
research Histochemical observation of the cell membrane complex of hair.
The Cell Membrane Complex in hair has both water-attracting and water-repelling layers.

research Solubility of Foreign Molecules in Stratum Corneum Brick and Mortar Structure
Solubility in skin changes with hydration, affecting chemical absorption.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Green formulation of spironolactone loaded chitosan coated nano lipid carrier for treatment of acne vulgaris: a randomized double-blind clinical trial
Chitosan-coated spironolactone nano carriers effectively treat acne without side effects.
research Kinetics and Equilibrium of Solute Diffusion into Human Hair
Hair absorbs molecules differently based on their size, charge, and love for water, and less at higher pH; this can help make better hair products.
