Extracellular fluid viscosity influences the mechanics and migration of MDA‐MB‐231 cells in a macromolecule‐dependent manner

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Macromolecule‐dependent increases in extracellular fluid viscosity alter cell phenotype. These distinct macromolecules create different extracellular environments that modulate cell morphology and mechanoprotein expression, migration and invasion capacity, and cellular mechanical properties.

Bio‐active designed peptide for hair keratin strengthening

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Bioactive tripeptides through in silico screening revealed KCV (Tripeptide‐132) as the most promising keratin‐targeting candidate. Experimental studies confirmed its superior hair‐strengthening performance with 44% tensile strength enhancement, 50% breakage reduction, improved surface integrity and fibre penetration.

Effects of repeated exposure to ozonated water on hair fibre structure and integrity: Part I

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Repeated exposure to ozonated water caused cumulative oxidative changes in hair, altering structural integrity, thermal behaviour and mechanical properties. The findings reveal a distinct ozone‐induced damage profile that progresses beyond the cuticle, challenging claims of hair‐revitalizing benefits. Abstract Objective Ozone has recently been marketed

Impact of ultraviolet radiation‐induced damage to hair fiber integrity: A multi‐technique physicochemical characterization of surface and cortex properties

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
UV exposure induces cuticular and cortical damage in natural hair, with oxidative effects and protein degradation comparable to bleaching. However, double bleaching leads to significantly greater structural degradation, emphasizing distinct mechanisms and severity of chemical versus UV‐induced damage. Abstract The combination of chemist techniques is a

Targeted keratin repair: A plant‐based approach to hair strength and surface restoration

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Application of Avena strigosa seed extract may reinforce keratin bonding, restoring hair fibre integrity by promoting intramolecular interactions at damaged sites of keratin proteins. Abstract Objective Chemical and thermal stress disrupts the intramolecular and intermolecular interactions that stabilize hair keratin, leading to structural degradation ...

A process‐temporal perspective on organizational paradoxes: A review and future research agenda

International Journal of Management Reviews, EarlyView.
Abstract Scholars are increasingly studying paradox processes, yet insights remain disconnected, with limited discussion across studies’ perspectives. Consequently, research risks underutilizing valuable findings, thereby reducing both theoretical and practical progress.

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.
