This case report identifies a novel CDH3 gene mutation associated with hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy in a 13-year-old Turkish girl, highlighting implications for future genetic analysis and counseling.

This case report documents a woman with HIV who developed severe hair loss after starting lopinavir-ritonavir, which improved upon switching to a different antiretroviral drug.

This study suggests that the epigenetic marker 5-hmC may dynamically influence hair follicle bulge activation during anagen growth in mice, warranting further investigation into its role in stem cell regulation.

This study revealed that Vav2 and Vav3 play roles in regulating hair follicle bulge stem cells in normal conditions and cancer stem cell activation and remodeling in mice.

This review highlights existing research on the psychological effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly noting increased depression and anxiety among women, but presents no new study results.

This study found that hair tonics containing clove ethanol extract increased hair growth in rabbits, with a dose-dependent effect observed at varying concentrations of the extract.

This case report suggests that exosome therapy may offer a promising alternative treatment for lichen planopilaris, showing potential benefits in hair regrowth, reduced inflammation, and improved scalp condition, but further studies are needed to confirm long-term efficacy and safety.

In this study, powdered milk samples from Senegal showed varying levels of heavy metals, with some exceeding acceptable maximum levels for calcium, potassium, and phosphorus, indicating potential safety concerns.

In this study, researchers investigated genetic variants in pharmacogenes affecting tadalafil and finasteride pharmacokinetics, finding fed volunteers had higher drug exposure than fasting individuals, but genetic variation did not significantly impact pharmacokinetics after correcting for multiple comparisons.

This case report identifies a novel AR gene mutation in an adolescent with primary amenorrhea, suggesting that CAIS should be considered when evaluating patients with a female phenotype and breast development.

In this study, researchers formulated a pomade using papaya seed oil and virgin coconut oil at various concentrations and found it to be stable, non-irritating, and preferred by users, with the 7.5% concentration being most favored for providing shiny and moisturized hair.

This study found that 54% of alopecia areata patients attributed their condition to stress, which was linked to higher perceived personal control and significant emotional impacts.

This study examined postmenopausal hyperandrogenism related to ovarian disease and found that specific biochemical markers can help differentiate between tumorous and non-tumorous cases, with a good level of sensitivity and specificity, supporting surgical intervention for resolution.

This study reported that stem cells derived from semi-solid bone marrow improved the healing of diabetic incision wounds in rats by increasing epidermal thickness and blood vessel growth, and reducing hair follicle destruction, cellular penetration, diffuse fibrosis, and necrosis compared to control groups.

In this study, the combination of topical minoxidil and betamethasone was found to be more effective for hair regrowth and patient satisfaction in alopecia areata patients compared to betamethasone alone or with herbal oils, though further randomized trials are recommended.

This study found that stem cells from semi-solid bone marrow improved healing in diabetic incision wounds by enhancing epidermal thickness and blood vessel growth.

This review suggests that while minoxidil is effective in promoting hair growth, its precise mechanism remains unclear, and it may have emerging applications in treating various dermatological conditions.

This mini review explores the potential of herbal testosterone 5α-reductase inhibitors for treating androgenetic alopecia, suggesting they might offer fewer side effects and better tolerability than traditional treatments like finasteride and minoxidil.

In this study, PRP therapy showed effectiveness in treating mild to moderate alopecia areata in patients with normal antithyroid antibodies, while those with severe forms or elevated antibodies did not experience significant benefits.
