In laboratory experiments, this study found that the topical prodrug SCD-153, a derivative of 4-methyl itaconate, reduced inflammation-related gene expression and induced significant hair growth in mice, suggesting it as a promising treatment candidate for alopecia areata.

This study utilized a mouse model of traumatic brain injury to reveal that acute neurotrauma triggers widespread lipid metabolism reprogramming and storage lipid accumulation in microglial and monocyte populations, leading to lysosomal dysfunction, inhibited autophagy, and exacerbated inflammation through a pathological feedback loop.

This article reviews knowledge-sharing efforts in pharmaceutical sciences at the University of Sorocaba, highlighting global collaboration on rational medicine use, without reporting new study results.

This article discusses the Graduate Program in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Sorocaba and emphasizes collaborating internationally to improve health policies and practices but reports no new research findings.

In this review, researchers reported that pyroptosis, a type of inflammatory cell death linked to inflammasome activity, is a key factor in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata and may present new therapeutic opportunities, though most treatments are still in early research stages.

This study suggests that enhancing glycolysis in MSCs may improve their immune functions and therapeutic potential, although more evidence is needed to understand the direct metabolic mechanisms involved.

This study found that in hamster flank organs, 17βC inhibited enlargement caused by topical testosterone but not by DHT, suggesting potential use in androgen-related skin disorders like acne.

This study found that methyl jasmonate can induce tanshinone biosynthesis in S. miltiorrhiza by affecting the expression of the SmMEC gene, as supported by RT-PCR and transcriptomic data.

This study optimized the reaction conditions for the stereoselective hydrogenation of a compound used in manufacturing finasteride and dutasteride, improving the selectivity for the desired isomer.

In this study, TASP0382088 showed potent selective inhibition of the ALK5 receptor, significantly reducing Smad2 phosphorylation in mouse skin following topical application.

This synthesis report details the successful development of a C-14 labeled isotopomer of LY300502, a 5α-reductase inhibitor, through a multi-step radiochemical process.

This study found that among 17 beta-(N-ureylene-N,N'-disubstituted)-4-azasteroids, those with an N'-phenyl moiety were the most effective inhibitors of human type I 5 alpha-reductase.

This study observed that the compound EM-402 reduced 5α-reductase activity and sebaceous gland size in the flank organs and ears of hamsters, indicating potent localized anti-androgenic effects without systemic action.

This study observed that a topical liposome formulation of a 5‐α‐reductase inhibitor effectively reduced the size of treated sebaceous glands and induced apoptosis in a hamster model, suggesting potential benefits for acne treatment.

This study found no evidence that the tested hair dye ingredients undergo hepatic metabolism to reactive oxidized metabolites in human liver microsomes and hepatocytes.

This study found that the cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP-sb21 can hydroxylate cyclosporine A at multiple positions, reducing its immunosuppressive effects but retaining its hair growth-promoting side-effect, and suggests modifications to improve regioselectivity for commercial use.

This study found that 4-MA is a potent inhibitor of testosterone 5α-reductase in human tissues, promising potential for treating androgen-dependent skin conditions like male pattern baldness.

This study examined the phytochemicals and antioxidant activities of methanolic extracts from Cameroonian Prunus africana bark and Leea indica and Paullinia pinnata leaves, identifying various phenolic compounds and significant antioxidant properties through multiple assays.

This study found that 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline derivatives, particularly N-methyl-7-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline, may be excellent blue dye candidates for human hair, offering superior color purity, stability, and fastness compared to 2,3-dihydroindoles.

This study analyzed the structure and dynamics of ketoconazole, revealing how its molecular characteristics, such as spin-lattice relaxation time and chemical shift anisotropy, are influenced by π-π stacking interactions and different carbon site environments.

This study found that the plant Clausena anisata exhibited promising antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities against acne-causing bacteria and inflammation, suggesting its potential as a candidate for further anti-acne treatment research.

In this study, the bark extract of Albizia saponaria was analyzed for its metabolites and potential anti-alopecia effects, identifying several compounds with predicted affinities for proteins involved in hair loss pathways.

This study identified seven new compounds from the plant Sansevieria trifasciata Prain and predicted that four of them may have better anti-alopecia activity than minoxidil through an in silico approach.

In this study, human scalp hair grafted onto nude mice accurately reflected methyl mercury exposure, demonstrating its potential as a research model for monitoring mercury incorporation into human hair.

This study found that photodynamic therapy with methyl 5-aminolevulinic acid was ineffective for treating alopecia totalis, even with microneedle rolling to enhance drug delivery.

This study details how very long human hair naturally ages, showing cuticle wear and internal fiber changes that may inform new hair care product designs.

This study concluded that 16β-methyl-17α-benzoyloxypregnen-4-en-3,20-dione may be a promising treatment for androgen-dependent diseases and epilepsy due to its antioxidant effects and impact on GABAergic and serotonergic metabolism in rats.

In this study, researchers reviewed literature on topical delivery of finasteride for androgenetic alopecia, finding that liposomal gels with specific additives showed the highest skin permeation rates, suggesting potential for reducing systemic side effects compared to oral formulations.

This study found that using a wearable low-level light therapy device for photodynamic therapy significantly reduced actinic keratosis lesions and improved quality of life in patients with AK of the scalp.

This study observed that MAA beads improved vascularization in non-diabetic male mice by modulating the Shh signaling pathway in wound granulation tissue, but showed no such effects in females.
