Light‐Activatable Hyaluronic Acid‐Derivatives Releasing Nitric Oxide and Their Delivery in the Skin
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This work explores the development of photoactivatable hyaluronic acid (HA) derivatives functionalized with nitric oxide (NO) photodonors for light‐controlled therapeutic applications. The HA derivatives demonstrate enhanced keratinocyte proliferation and migration, effective NO release, and skin penetration when formulated as microemulsions.

Hair of astrophysical black holes [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 The "no hair" theorem is not applicable to black holes formed from collapse of a rotating neutron star. Rotating neutron stars can self-produce particles via vacuum breakdown forming a highly conducting plasma magnetosphere such that magnetic field lines are effectively "frozen-in" the star both before and during collapse.

Uncertainty and sensitivity analysis of hair growth duration in human scalp follicles under normal and alopecic conditions [PDF]
arXivHair follicles constantly cycle through phases of growth, regression and rest, as matrix keratinocytes (MKs), the cells producing hair fibers, proliferate, and then undergo spontaneous apoptosis. Damage to MKs and perturbations in their normal dynamics result in a shortened growth phase, leading to hair loss.

Hormonal therapy in female pattern hair loss
International Journal of Women's Dermatology, 2017 Female pattern hair loss is the most common cause of hair loss in women and one of the most common problems seen by dermatologists. This hair loss is a nonscarring alopecia in which loss occurs on the vertex scalp, generally sparing the frontal hairline.
