Kidney stones and hair loss are significantly related in people under 60 years old.

This research highlights that engineered mice lacking the vitamin D receptor show multiple health issues similar to human vitamin D deficiency, underscoring the widespread impacts of the vitamin D endocrine system.

This study found that mice lacking the vitamin D receptor (VDR) developed skin tumors more rapidly than those with normal VDR activity, regardless of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) presence.

This review examines dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis, highlighting the role of Malassezia yeasts in inflammation and hyper-proliferation, and reports no new clinical findings.

This review explores animal models of alopecia areata, particularly focusing on the insights they've provided into the disease's immune mechanisms and potential treatment approaches, without reporting new experimental data.

This study found that platelet-rich growth factor significantly reduced the release of proinflammatory cytokines in an in vitro rheumatoid arthritis model.

This study found that crosslinking buffalo gelatin with different methods can modify its properties and potential as a skin substitute, though double-crosslinking may increase immunogenicity slightly.

This study found that mimosine dipeptide enantiomers inhibit melanogenesis and cyclooxygenase enzymes in B16F10 melanoma cells, suggesting potential for treating skin hyperpigmentation and inflammation.

This study found that 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3 significantly increased the expression and activity of vasculoprotective natriuretic peptide receptor-A in cultured inner medullary collecting duct cells, suggesting a potential mechanistic role in cardiovascular and renal benefits.

In this study, 1% minoxidil lotion led to good results in 18% of male patients with androgenetic alopecia, but only 6% maintained regrowth one year after stopping treatment.

This study found that the vitamin D receptor, but not its ligand, regulates genes involved in hair cycle progression, suggesting a role in integrating hormone signaling pathways for hair and epidermal functions.

This study found that rice bran ash extract and orthosilicic acid both increased melanin synthesis and related protein expression in melanocytes, suggesting potential therapeutic use for melanin deficiency.

In this study, microneedling with a depth of 0.6 mm, alongside minoxidil, significantly improved hair count and thickness in patients with androgenetic alopecia compared to minoxidil alone, and was more beneficial than a 1.2 mm depth.

This study suggests that the vitamin D receptor and hairless gene may directly regulate each other via a transcriptional mechanism, potentially explaining phenotypic similarities between atrichia and VDRRIIa rickets.

In this study, different drying methods for Hedychium spicatum rhizomes significantly affected the essential oil yield, antioxidant potential, and compound composition, with the HSOV30 method yielding the highest oil content, antioxidant activity, and specific compound levels such as 1,8-cineole and elemol.

This study discusses how redox imbalance, specifically through reduced Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 mediated by the transcription factor JunB and sphingolipid metabolism changes, contributes to skin aging by depleting stem cell pools and altering the extracellular matrix, ultimately impacting skin integrity and function.

This study found that tectoridin, an isoflavone from Rhizoma Belamcandae, may stimulate hair growth by activating Wnt signaling in human and mouse cell cultures.

This study found that polyacetylene compounds in Panax ginseng extracts may inhibit neurotrophin receptor binding, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits for alopecia and other hair growth disorders.

This review examines the efficacy and safety of using minoxidil at concentrations greater than 5% for androgenetic alopecia but reports no new clinical results, emphasizing a need for further research.

This study found that downregulation of Sonic hedgehog signaling may promote HPV replication and wart formation by inducing cell cycle arrest in keratinocytes.

This study identified two distinct VDR gene mutations among Lebanese families with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, noting varied treatment responses and promising outcomes despite severe phenotypes.

This review discusses treatment options for androgenetic alopecia, with a focus on the better efficacy of oral finasteride and dutasteride over topical minoxidil for male pattern hair loss, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that in a mouse model, Negative Pressure Wound Therapy promotes wound healing by modulating inflammatory responses and increasing dickkopf-related protein 1, which encourages the differentiation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells into epidermal cells.

This study introduced a new spectrofluorometric method using a synthesized organic fluorophore to effectively analyze darolutamide and thalidomide in pharmaceutical preparations and biofluids.

In this study, Agaricus bisporus derived β-Glucan particles demonstrated antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer effects against cervical cancer HeLa cells, suggesting potential as a therapeutic option.

In this study, XZYFD, a Traditional Chinese Medicine formulation, was found to improve androgenetic alopecia in a testosterone-induced mouse model by promoting hair regrowth, restoring follicular morphology, and modulating androgen metabolism, MAPK signaling, and lipid metabolism pathways, suggesting potential benefits for patients with metabolic dysfunction.

This review compiles evidence indicating that rosemary essential oil may enhance cognitive function, sleep quality, mood, and pain management in aromatherapy; however, it also notes potential allergic reactions, emphasizing caution in its use.

In this study, cryopreserved fibroblast cell sheets cultured on a new substrate showed significantly enhanced healing of cutaneous ulcers in diabetic and immunodeficient mice, suggesting potential effectiveness for refractory skin wounds.

This study highlights that current research efforts to deliver anti-acne drugs to hair follicles have primarily targeted healthy follicles, overlooking the distinct characteristics of pathologically clogged follicles in acne vulgaris.

This review compiles existing research on infrared radiation's effects on human skin, noting both its potential harmful thermal impacts and encouraging therapeutic applications, but reports no new clinical results.
