Background: Characterizing stress can inform our understanding of direct and indirect pathways impacting mental and physical health outcomes, including age-related cognitive decline. Chronic stress has been strongly associated with increased risk for cognitive decline, and hair cortisol concentration (HCC) has emerged as a viable neuroendocrine biomarker for its quantification. Cognitive appraisal of stress (CAS) provides key insight into the cognitive framework for responding to a given stressor.

Auditory hair cells form precise and sensitive staircase-like actin protrusions known as stereocilia. These specialized microvilli detect deflections induced by sound through the activation of mechano-electrical transduction (MET) channels located at their tips. At rest, a small MET channel current results in a constant calcium influx which regulates the morphology of the actin cytoskeleton in the shorter 'transducing' stereocilia.

Although androgenic alopecia is the most prevalent among non-cicatricial alopecia, it still lacks an effective and safe treatment. Dutasteride (DUT) shows promising results in hair regrowth; however, oral DUT intake causes serious sexual adverse events. Hence, we produced liposomes with different bilayer structures and evaluated the capability of such systems in increasing DUT accumulation in the hair follicles.
