Vitamin F

This study found that male germ-free rats fed semisynthetic diets do not grow as rapidly as their conventional counterparts and require dietary biotin for normal metabolism and folic acid biosynthesis.

Silymarin improves hair follicle health better than vitamin C by boosting cell growth and reducing oxidative stress.

This study found that linoleic acid may help protect against acrylamide toxicity in female albino rats.

This study examined the demographics of patients diagnosed with pernio and compared their vitamin B12, folate, and ferritin levels with those of a control group.

This review explores the diverse physiological roles of the vitamin D endocrine system, discussing current research on receptor structure, transcription details, murine models, and alternative receptors, but reports no new findings.

This review discusses the regulation and function of vitamin D and its receptor in skin cells, highlighting their roles in processes such as proliferation inhibition, differentiation, and innate immunity, but reports no new results.

This study found that absence of the vitamin D receptor in keratinocytes impairs canonical Wnt signaling and leads to alopecia due to defects in keratinocyte stem cells.

This review explores the impact of vitamin D deficiency on the skin from a dermatological perspective, but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that the vitamin D receptor is crucial for hair follicle formation and altering tumor development in the Wnt signaling pathway, suggesting therapeutic potential for vitamin D analogues in related tumors.

This article outlines the potential for upregulating the vitamin D receptor in treating hair disorders, emphasizing the need for further studies to evaluate vitamin D's role in the hair cycle.

This study found that low serum ferritin and vitamin D2 levels are associated with hair loss in females with chronic telogen effluvium and female pattern hair loss, suggesting potential benefits of screening and supplementation.

In this study, adrenalectomy in rats on a diet lacking certain vitamin B components reversed fur graying and enhanced hair growth.

This study suggests that impaired VDR signaling in mice leads to dysregulated Ddit4 expression, impacting hair cycle progression and wound healing.

This study found that calbindin-D9k knockout mice on a maternal vitamin D-deficient and low-calcium diet developed transient alopecia, but a high-vitamin D and calcium diet in mothers reduced this effect.

This study found that excess vitamin A induced stable glandular morphogenesis and mucous metaplasia in embryonic mouse vibrissa follicles, even after switching to standard medium.

This study reports that zinc oxide or silver nanoparticles capped with vitamin A or E, incorporated into wheat gluten films, showed significant potential in promoting burn wound healing in mice by facilitating wound contraction, re-epithelialization, and collagen deposition, while also exhibiting antioxidant and antibacterial properties.

This study found that combining oral vitamin D with topical minoxidil improved female pattern hair loss more effectively than either treatment alone.

This review discusses the role of vitamin D and its receptor in maintaining skin and hair follicle health, but it reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers found that female COVID-19 patients experiencing hair loss had higher testosterone levels and lower Vitamin D levels than healthy controls, suggesting these hormonal factors may play a role in post-COVID-19 hair loss.

This article reviews the nutritional needs and challenges for the elderly, emphasizing the benefits of antioxidants and healthy fats for immune support and overall health, but presents no new clinical results.
