research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Internal structure changes in bleached black human hair resulting from chemical treatments: A Raman spectroscopic investigation
Chemical treatments on bleached black hair change its internal structure by breaking and reforming bonds, and treatments with hydrolyzed eggwhite protein help repair it.
research Effects of Silicone Oil Viscosity on the Physical Structure and Damage Mechanisms of Hair during Permanent Wave Treatment
Silicone oil viscosity affects hair curling and damage during treatments.
research Lecithin organogels as a potential phospholipid-structured system for topical drug delivery: A review
Lecithin organogels could be good for applying drugs to the skin because they are stable, safe, and can improve drug absorption.
research Hair follicles as a target structure for nanoparticles
Nanoparticles around 600-700 nm can effectively enter and stay in hair follicles for days, which may help in delivering drugs to specific cells.
research Structure of human steroid 5α-reductase 2 with the anti-androgen drug finasteride
Finasteride irreversibly affects human steroid 5α-reductase 2, providing insight into its catalytic mechanism and disease-related mutations.
research Development, Structure, and Keratin Expression in C57BL/6J Mouse Eccrine Glands

research Hyperplasia of Hair Follicles and Other Adnexal Structures in Cutaneous Lymphoproliferative Disorders
Hair follicle hyperplasia is common in both benign and malignant skin lymphoproliferative disorders, with a proposed new term "pseudolymphomatous adnexitis."
research Mechanism of TAp73 inhibition by ΔNp63 and structural basis of p63/p73 hetero-tetramerization
ΔNp63α stops TAp73β from working in skin cancer by blocking its access to specific genes, not by directly interacting with it.
research Solid state NMR of isotope labelled murine fur: a powerful tool to study atomic level keratin structure and treatment effects
Solid-state NMR can effectively study keratin structure and treatment effects in fur.
research Scaled Quantum Chemical Studies of the Molecular Structure and Vibrational Spectra of Minoxidil
The analysis shows where minoxidil's atoms are likely to react and describes its electronic transitions and behavior with temperature changes.
research Comprehensive Spectroscopic Characterization of Finasteride Polymorphic Forms. Does the Form X Exist?
Three finasteride forms exist; "form X" doesn't.
research Inhibition of Human Steroid 5β-Reductase (AKR1D1) by Finasteride and Structure of the Enzyme-Inhibitor Complex
