This study found that topical treatment with 7DHC and BM15766 reduced hair growth in mice compared to those treated with Ethanol/DMSO, and hair did not recover after treatment ceased, alongside increased apoptotic cells and decreased expression of specific genes.

This study observed that treating hair follicles with BM15766 and 7DHC led to structural damage, disrupted cellular organization, reduced expression of key genes and proteins, and increased apoptosis, in contrast to controls, indicating detrimental effects on hair follicle integrity.

This study found that disrupted cholesterol homeostasis impairs hair regrowth in individuals with primary cicatricial alopecia by damaging hair follicle stem cells, highlighting the importance of cholesterol in maintaining stem cell function and hair follicle integrity.

This study found that impairments in cholesterol biosynthesis in hair follicles of primary cicatricial alopecia patients trigger an inflammatory immune response, potentially linking sterols to inflammation in the disease's pathogenesis.

This review discusses the role of vitamin D metabolism in skin immunity and wound healing but does not present new results, highlighting the need for further research into its therapeutic applications.

Terbinafine is the most effective medicine for fungal nail infections, especially for diabetics and those with weak immune systems.

The testes significantly contribute to vitamin D metabolism and may affect male reproductive health and conditions like hair loss.

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 review discusses the roles of interferon-γ and PPAR-γ-mediated signalling in scarring alopecia, suggesting these pathways as potential therapeutic targets, but it reports no new empirical results.

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.

In this study, researchers found that impaired cholesterol biosynthesis in hair follicles may trigger an inflammatory immune response linked to primary cicatricial alopecia, providing new insights into the disorder's pathogenesis.

This review examines the functions of vitamin D and its receptor in skin and explores how these are regulated, reporting no new clinical results.

This study found that mice lacking the 1αOHase enzyme, which is responsible for producing a key vitamin D metabolite, showed impaired epidermal differentiation and delayed recovery of skin barrier function after disruption.

This review discusses the role of cholesterol homeostasis in hair follicle biology and its potential connections to various hair disorders, but it reports no new findings.

The researchers observed that normal murine hair follicles are direct targets for melatonin, with receptor expression varying throughout the hair cycle, suggesting melatonin's role in hair cycle control.

This review discusses 46,XY disorders of sex development caused by defects in androgen production and highlights the need for long-term care from experienced multidisciplinary teams, but it reports no new clinical findings.

In this review, researchers explored the roles of vitamins A, B3, C, D, and E in skin immunity, highlighting their potential as therapeutics for skin diseases due to their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties.

This review discusses the role of skin enzymes in drug metabolism and emphasizes the need for models assessing enzyme activity to evaluate the safety and bioequivalence of topical generic drugs, highlighting efforts to standardize testing protocols for transdermal products.

This literature review highlights the effectiveness of topical vitamin D (e.g., calcipotriol, calcitriol) in treating vitiligo, emphasizing its role in melanogenesis and as an immunomodulator, either alone or combined with topical corticosteroids, offering minimal side effects.

This article discusses how vitamin D supplementation impacts human aesthetics and health, with effects varying positively or negatively based on different dermatological conditions.

This review discusses the potential pathogenic mechanisms of cicatricial alopecia and emphasizes the need for further research on treatment methods, but it reports no new clinical findings.
