A newspaper article caused a big rise in oral minoxidil prescriptions for hair loss.

This study found that people with alopecia who worry about not wearing a wig reported higher levels of depression, anxiety, and social anxiety, although wig use increased social confidence for many.

This source reports that thymosin beta 4 accelerated dermal wound repair in phase 2 clinical trials for pressure ulcers, stasis ulcers, and epidermolysis bullosa wounds and was well tolerated.

In this study, thymosin beta4 was found to stimulate hair growth in normal rats and mice by affecting key processes in the hair follicle cycle, such as stem cell migration and extracellular matrix remodeling.

This study describes a 4-year-old boy who exhibits a rare, synchronized pattern of hair growth and shedding, unlike the typical asynchronous pattern seen in humans.

This study found that cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors used for metastatic breast cancer caused alopecia resembling androgenetic alopecia, negatively impacting patients' quality of life, but topical minoxidil showed potential for improvement.

This article discusses a forthcoming advertising campaign for minoxidil, highlighting the need for dermatologists to understand its efficacy, with reports showing it was significantly superior to placebo in promoting hair growth at four months.

This study found that organ-cultured human scalp hair follicles can mimic chemotherapy-induced damage in vivo and serve as a model to explore molecular targets and protective agents for hair follicle preservation.

This article has no abstract and reports no new findings, focusing instead on allergic contact dermatitis reactions to topical Minoxidil documented in previous studies.

In this study, ultraviolet light did not significantly enhance or worsen hair growth induced by topical minoxidil in men with male pattern baldness.

In this study, a nanoemulsion containing lavender, peppermint, and rosemary essential oils was developed and shown to promote hair growth in mice at a rate comparable to 2% topical minoxidil, suggesting a promising natural alternative due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

In this study, researchers observed that the sebaceous gland niche in mice allows for Wnt-induced hair follicle differentiation, unlike the non-permissive bulge.

This study observed that hair casts, seen in girls with tightly drawn hairstyles, may result from local circulatory disturbances and scalp inflammation.

This study observed that daily selenium sulfide shampoos successfully removed fungal spores hidden beneath the hair cuticle in patients infected with ectothrix Microsporum canis.

This case report discusses a 45-year-old Japanese man who developed myocardial infarction while using 1% topical minoxidil for baldness, highlighting the need for caution in patients with cardiovascular disorders.

This study found that Polygoni multiflori Radix water extracts accelerated hair regrowth and hair follicle development in mice, showing a safer profile compared to minoxidil.

This study reported safety concerns regarding minoxidil, noting risks of infantile hypertrichosis linked to maternal exposure and associations with eye disorders among users in the general population.

Tinea can cause scarring alopecia in children, and fungal culture is crucial for diagnosis.

Many Korean preschool children have low zinc levels, which may affect their growth, and zinc supplements could help.

This study developed a novel protocol that demonstrated improved localized delivery of minoxidil to eyebrow application sites with minimal runoff, compared to a control formulation.

This study used a novel fluorescent tagging method in mice to observe collagen IV dynamics during hair follicle development, revealing that alterations in basement membrane turnover can influence epithelial progenitor cell behavior and organ morphology by affecting cell proliferation and movement.

In this case report, two plywood mill workers developed allergic contact dermatitis due to exposure to uncured phenol-formaldehyde resin, not sawdust as initially suspected.

This study found that the combination of zinc sulfate and calcium pantothenate improved hair density and participant satisfaction in women with hair loss, suggesting its potential as an initial treatment option.

This study characterized the crystal structures and supramolecular architectures of new salts made from 2,4-diaminopyrimidine and different dicarboxylic acids, revealing subtle differences in crystal packing and hydrogen-bonding patterns, particularly influenced by sulfur atom interactions, through Hirshfeld analysis and enrichment ratios.

Minoxidil solution applied twice daily improved hair growth in patients with Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis due to LIPH gene issues, with mild side effects.

This study found that vitamin C deficiency in SMP-30/GNL-KO mice affected gene expression related to hair growth and cell growth, resulting in delayed hair growth compared to those with adequate vitamin C.

This study evaluated a new topical regenerative treatment and found it can safely and effectively reduce hair loss in patients with androgenetic alopecia and telogen effluvium by mimicking the effects of autologous platelet-rich plasma.

DNCB is highly effective for treating alopecia areata with minimal long-term side effects.

In this study, a 5% Gymnema sylvestre leaf extract formulation applied to C3H mice showed significantly delayed hair regrowth by increasing TGF-β1 and TGF-β2 expression while reducing β-catenin levels, suggesting its potential as a natural hair growth inhibitor.

This study formulated a minoxidil nanoemulgel with improved solubilization and skin penetration, demonstrating a high entrapment efficiency and sustained drug release in vitro, which suggests potential improvements in treating androgenetic alopecia compared to conventional formulations.
