Taking natural keratin supplements improved skin, hair, and nails in women.
research Differential Diagnosis of Female-Pattern Hair Loss
Possible causes of female hair loss include androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium, cicatricial alopecia, and alopecia areata incognita; diagnosis and treatment require dermoscopy and histopathology.
research Mapping penetration of cosmetic compounds into hair fibers using time‐of‐flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF‐SIMS)
Different oils penetrate hair differently; monounsaturated oils like olive oil penetrate better than polyunsaturated oils.
research Psoriasiform skin reaction due to Brazilian keratin treatment
Brazilian Keratin Treatment can cause skin reactions like redness and scaling, possibly due to formaldehyde.
research 312 CRISPR/Cas9-based targeted genome editing for correction of recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa using iPS cells
The research showed that CRISPR/Cas9 can fix mutations causing a skin disease in stem cells, which then improved skin grafts in mice, but more work on safety and efficiency is needed.
research Scientific Opinion on the substantiation of a health claim related to KF2BL20 and maintenance of normal hair pursuant to Article 13(5) of Regulation (EC) No 1924/2006
KF2BL20 does not have proven benefits for maintaining normal hair.

A 25-year-old Malay fireman had skin bumps on his neck that were removed successfully after other treatments failed.
research 583 Promoting hair growth and hair keratin production with a propolis extract
Propolis extract can promote hair growth and increase keratin production.
research iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomics revealing the therapeutic mechanism of a medicinal and edible formula YH0618 in reducing doxorubicin-induced alopecia by targeting keratins and TGF-β/Smad3 pathway
YH0618 helps reduce chemotherapy-induced hair loss by targeting specific proteins and pathways.
research 269 Down-regulatory role of cholecystokinin on psoriatic epidermal inflammation
Cholecystokinin may help reduce skin inflammation in psoriasis.
research 476 Development of an intrinsic skin sensor for blood glucose level with CRISPR-mediated genome editing in epidermal stem cells
Researchers created a skin graft that senses blood glucose and could treat diabetes using CRISPR-edited stem cells.
research Hair, Cutaneous Homeostasis and Stem Cell Functions
Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.
