This study suggests that adjusting the ratios of keratin-associated proteins to keratin intermediate filaments can create keratin/chitosan hydrogels with more consistent gel properties for tissue engineering.

This article discusses the benefits, techniques, and unique considerations of follicular unit extraction for hair grafting, but reports no new clinical results.

This study indicates that Fructus panax ginseng extract may promote hair growth by increasing proliferation in human hair dermal papilla cells and lengthening the anagen phase in mice.

This review discusses the negative effects of cigarette smoking on various skin conditions and emphasizes the importance of dermatologists advising patients to quit smoking, but it presents no new research findings.

This article discusses the complexities of androgen and antiandrogen therapies in women, detailing diagnostic measures, the effects on libido, and the potential benefits of new progestins with antiandrogenic properties, but presents no new empirical findings.

This article reviews the potential role of prolactin as a neuroendocrine modulator in skin biology and pathology, discussing its relevance for conditions such as psoriasis and hair growth, but reports no new clinical findings.

This article explains the structure and multifunctional roles of the human skin, including its protective, regulatory, and sensory functions, but does not report new research findings.

This study found that 50-nm PLGA nanoparticles delivered with iontophoresis enhanced skin permeation of indomethacin in rats more effectively than 100-nm nanoparticles, suggesting improved targeting of hair follicles.

This study found that using monoolein cubic phase nanoparticles with an entrapped hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin/minoxidil complex increased minoxidil skin permeation, but minoxidil retention in the skin was higher with a traditional solution.

This article reviews behavioral dermatology, highlighting the importance of integrating physiological, social, and environmental factors in managing dermatologic conditions with behavioral components, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that leukocytes and beard hair follicle cells have an endogenous circadian clock, with PER1 and PER3 expression possibly serving as biomarkers for assessing individual biological clock traits.

This study found that finasteride treatment in male rats led to enduring effects on depressive-like behavior, hippocampal neurogenesis and neuroinflammation, and gut microbiota composition after withdrawal.

In this systematic review and meta-analysis, methotrexate and leflunomide were compared for treating rheumatoid arthritis, showing similar efficacy overall. Methotrexate reduced swollen joints more effectively, while leflunomide was associated with fewer gastrointestinal side effects but more frequent liver enzyme increases.

This study reported that Turkish males with male pattern androgenetic alopecia had significantly lower zinc and copper levels in their hair compared to healthy controls, suggesting these imbalances may play a role in the condition's etiology.

This study suggests that true binary and ternary inclusion complexes were formed between finasteride and 2-hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin, with or without the addition of specific polymers.

This study reports that GLP-1 receptors and proglucagon are expressed in the skin of newborn mice, with GLP-1 potentially playing a role in skin development and hair follicle formation.

The study observed that finasteride reduced fertility in male Sprague-Dawley rats by impairing the formation of copulatory plugs, an effect considered specific to rats and not applicable to species without this reproductive feature.

This review explores research on nanoformulations for enhancing the topical delivery of herbal medicines, noting potential benefits like improved bioavailability and sustained delivery, and emphasizes the need for safety and toxicity guidelines in developing these novel drug delivery systems.

This case report describes a male patient with aromatase deficiency, revealing that a c.628G>A mutation can lead to varied clinical features, such as low bone mass and normal metabolic profiles.

This study demonstrated that an engineered human skin equivalent can generate follicle-like structures resembling fetal skin, highlighting the role of the dermal compartment in directing epithelial cell fate in vitro.

This study found that finasteride increased fetal arousal activity in late gestation sheep by suppressing pregnane steroid synthesis, suggesting reduced GABAA receptor-mediated inhibition.

This study developed a standardized questionnaire to measure patient-perceived changes in hair growth and appearance, which showed significant favoring of active treatment over placebo in a clinical trial for male androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, a methanol extract of Eclipta alba was found to have dose-dependent hair growth-promoting activity in C57BL6 mice.

This review discusses contemporary issues in syphilis diagnosis and management, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and addressing both biomedical and psychosocial aspects, but provides no new clinical results.

Tiny particles carrying roxithromycin can effectively target and deliver the drug to hair follicles without irritation.

In this study, experimentally induced weight loss in merino sheep led to a decrease in wool fiber diameter and increased expression of certain high sulfur and glycine-tyrosine proteins, potentially impacting wool quality and industry preferences.

This article reviews the impact of different forms of alopecia on patients with systemic autoimmune diseases and reports no new clinical findings; it emphasizes the need for attentive management of alopecia-related symptoms.

This review examines various androgen deprivation therapy methods for advanced prostate cancer, highlighting benefits and potential cardiovascular and sexual adverse effects, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the causes and diagnostic process for facial hypermelanosis, emphasizing the need to rule out systemic disorders like Addison's disease; it reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses adverse effects of cosmetic products and procedures on the ocular surface, including mild discomfort to severe vision-threatening conditions, and reports no new clinical results.
