This study identified three genes with significantly higher expression in androgen-sensitive beard dermal papilla cells compared to androgen-insensitive scalp cells, suggesting potential novel signaling pathways in hair follicles.

This pharmacovigilance study found an increased association of suicidality and psychological adverse events with finasteride use, especially among younger patients using it for alopecia.

This review discusses the historical and current use of ribosome-inactivating protein-expressing plants in traditional medicine across various cultures and regions, highlighting their role despite a lack of scientific validation.

This review discusses the pharmacologic properties, mechanisms, dosing options, and adverse effects of systemic glucocorticosteroids in dermatology, but reports no new findings.

The authors describe drug repurposing as a promising strategy for finding new uses for existing drugs, noting it is efficient, cost-effective, and poses lower risks than traditional drug discovery processes, potentially aiding in the treatment of rare and difficult-to-treat diseases.

In this study, researchers found that intestine-derived human alpha defensin 5 enhances wound healing, reduces bacterial load, and promotes hair growth in murine burn wound beds by increasing LGR stem cell migration.

This study reported that exposure to 1,763 MHz radiofrequency radiation stimulated hair growth in vitro by inducing insulin-like growth factor-1 expression in cultured human dermal papilla cells.

This report reviews current advances in hair follicle regeneration for tissue-engineered skin grafts and highlights the feasibility and challenges of creating human hair follicles in this setting, suggesting key bioengineering requirements.

This review suggests that skin may largely protect itself from CYP-generated reactive metabolites due to higher conjugating enzyme activities, while highlighting limitations in modeling human skin metabolism experimentally.

In this study, researchers found that hepatitis C virus infection is a significant risk factor for sporadic porphyria cutanea tarda, suggesting familial cases might be more prevalent in areas with low hepatitis C infection rates.

This study found that oral JAK inhibitors are effective and generally well-tolerated for treating alopecia areata, but high recurrence rates after stopping treatment suggest the need for continuous use.

This study explored the regenerative abilities of the African spiny mouse's skin, revealing more robust wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis compared to laboratory mice and highlighting unique features of its hair and wound response.

This review provides a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms, efficacy, and adverse reactions of drugs commonly used for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia but reports no new clinical results.

This review found evidence supporting the effectiveness and safety of topical minoxidil for treating female pattern hair loss, though many included studies were at high risk of bias.

In this study, several compounds, including estrogen and Dutasteride, showed neuroprotective effects on dopaminergic neurons in an MPTP mouse model of Parkinson's disease.

This review discusses the dual role of cellular senescence in ageing and tissue repair and suggests potential therapeutic applications, with no new experimental results reported.

This study found that the application of calreticulin significantly improved wound healing time and quality in diabetic mice, suggesting it may be an effective topical treatment for chronic wounds.

This review discusses the involvement of type I interferons in skin autoimmune and inflammatory diseases but reports no new clinical results.

This systematic review found that long COVID symptoms, particularly fatigue, sleep disorder, and dyspnoea, were similarly prevalent in ongoing symptomatic COVID-19 and post-COVID-19 syndrome, but psychological issues and poor quality of life were more common in the latter.

This study found that STAT5 activation in the dermal papilla acts as a key switch to trigger anagen entry in postdevelopmental hair follicle cycling.

This review discusses the negative health impacts of testosterone deficiency and the potential adverse effects of 5α-reductase inhibitors, emphasizing the need for patient-physician discussions regarding these treatments.

This study suggests that UMPP activation is a key signaling pathway in differentiating primary and secondary hair follicles in cashmere goats.

This review updates the protective effects and molecular mechanisms of melatonin against ultraviolet-induced damage in human skin, reporting no new clinical findings.

This study found that 3% peppermint oil significantly enhanced hair growth in C57BL/6 mice, showing increased dermal thickness, follicle number, and follicle depth compared to other treatments.

This study found that certain gene sets, including those involved in ligand-gated ion channel signaling and cell adhesion, are associated with Tourette syndrome, suggesting a potential neurobiological basis for the disorder.

This study suggests a possible link between late puberty onset and decreased prostate cancer risk, while over-the-counter ibuprofen use was associated with increased risk.

This review assessed evidence on laser therapies for alopecia areata, reporting that the 308-nm excimer laser showed hair regrowth in several studies, while more research is needed for other laser types.

This article reviews skin disorders in Parkinson's disease, highlighting the potential of skin studies and stem cell research to advance understanding and treatment of the neurodegenerative disorder, without presenting new results.

In this study, researchers measured the solubility of Minoxidil in supercritical CO₂ under various temperature and pressure conditions and created models to estimate solubility based on different predictive approaches.

This study demonstrated that AIRE-deficient rats exhibit key symptoms of APECED, making them a relevant model for exploring potential treatments.
