This study identified that certain genetic polymorphisms in IL-16 are associated with an increased risk of alopecia areata in an Iraqi population.

This study used molecular dynamics simulations to illustrate the complex molecular behavior of the hair surface F-layer, highlighting how fatty acids interact with 18-MEA under different conditions.

This Cochrane review reports that 5-alpha reductase inhibitors may slightly reduce urological symptoms and acute urinary retention risk compared to placebo, with a possible small reduction in surgical intervention need compared to alpha blockers.

This case report describes a 26-year-old man from Bangladesh diagnosed with autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1, a rare endocrine disorder involving adrenocortical insufficiency, hypoparathyroidism, and mucocutaneous candidiasis.

The document recommends a multidisciplinary approach and experience sharing to advance facial feminization surgery as a medical field.

This study found that human hair follicles can be used to generate induced pluripotent stem cells, which can then efficiently differentiate back into keratinocytes.

Sca-1+ cells in newborn mouse skin may become fat cells.

This study found that diphlorethohydroxycarmalol significantly increased prostaglandin $E_2$ synthesis in HaCaT human keratinocytes by upregulating COX-1 and COX-2 expression, suggesting potential benefits from elevated $PGE_2$ production.

This study found that watercress extract may help treat hair loss by increasing RSPO1 secretion and decreasing DKK1 secretion, improving hair thickness and density in clinical trials.

ALDOA levels drop in hair cells during hair loss.

This study investigates the role of AR up-regulation in the pathogenesis of androgenetic alopecia, but it remains unclear if HSP27 and miR-1 are jointly involved.

In this study, 1 mg/day finasteride lowered serum PSA concentration in men aged 40–60, suggesting that PSA adjustment recommendations for prostate cancer screening using 5 mg/day finasteride should also apply to this lower dose for hair loss treatment.

This review discusses the role of the enzyme Δ9-desaturase-1 in skin lipid regulation and whole-body energy balance in mice and reports no new experimental results.

This study found that the R257X mutation in the AIRE gene is prevalent among Russian patients with autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 1, particularly in those with hypoparathyroidism and chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis.

Higher variability in systolic blood pressure increases long-term mortality risk in coronary artery disease patients.

This study found that PBX1 enhances the proliferation and reprogramming of hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells by activating the AKT/GSK3β signaling pathway, promoting NANOG expression, and inhibiting apoptosis.

In this study, fraction No. 3 of Oryza sativa bran extract demonstrated high unsaturated fatty acid content and significant 5α-reductase inhibition, suggesting potential for developing anti-androgenic alopecia products.

The study found that finasteride increased endoplasmic reticulum stress and reduced fertility in rats, effects that were alleviated by the administration of DA-9401.

This study found that patients with myotonic dystrophy types 1 and 2 often exhibit skin abnormalities, which correlate with genotype severity and serum vitamin D levels, and suggest premature aging.

The authors concluded that increased expression of the HSD11B1 gene in adipose tissue correlates with obesity markers and predicts insulin resistance, but this association is independent of polycystic ovary syndrome when adiposity is controlled for.

This study found that the proteins GDNF, NTN, GFRα-1, GFRα-2, and c-Ret are differentially expressed during various stages of the human hair follicle cycle, with potential implications for hair biology.

This study found that SDR5A1 gene expression was similar between hirsute women, normal women, and men, suggesting it may not explain differences in hair growth among these groups.

In this four-year study, pediatric patients with inoperable plexiform neurofibromas and type 1 neurofibromatosis treated with selumetinib frequently experienced dermatologic side effects, which required tailored management strategies and sometimes led to treatment suspension, potentially affecting tumor regrowth.

This study reported that compounds isolated from Alpinia zerumbet significantly promoted hair cell growth and exhibited anticancer activity in cell cultures, suggesting potential as treatments for alopecia and cancer.

This historical observation found that parathyroid extract treatment in newborn rats led to a condition resembling scleroderma, characterized by skin hardening, calcium deposition, and possible necrosis.

This study observed that female mice with disrupted 5α-reductase 1 showed increased insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis, suggesting altered glucocorticoid metabolism contributes to metabolic disorders.

This study identified potent dual inhibitors of 5α-reductases 1 and 2 that may aid in designing new drugs for related diseases.

Among cultured sebocytes, this study found that bilobetin significantly inhibited lipid production induced by IGF-1, suggesting potential for use in acne treatment.

This study found that the Plcd3(mNab) mutation in mice worsens the alopecia caused by Plcd1 loss, suggesting synergistic effects between Plcd1 and Plcd3 on hair follicle health.

Higher levels of MiR-92a-1-5p and miR-328-3p found in female hair loss patients.
