Specific cross-linkages help make hair proteins stable and strong.

In this study, gelatin-coated transferosomes were developed to deliver tofacitinib specifically to hair follicles, resulting in 80% hair regrowth in alopecia areata patients with recalcitrant lesions after 12 weeks of treatment.

This study reported that the Fe@C/CB electrocatalyst effectively detected Metol in water samples with a low detection limit, high sensitivity, and good stability, suggesting it as a promising tool for environmental monitoring.

This review highlights the medicinal potential of Acorus calamus, identifying its bioactive components and demonstrating its pharmacological activities, but also notes the need for more research on toxicity and safety.

This article describes the efficient synthesis of (S)-N-(2-bromo-6-methoxypyridin-4-yl)-2-hydroxy-2,4-dimethylpentanamide, a novel topical antiandrogen, with high purity and enantiomeric excess but reports no pharmacological results.

This study characterized the CYP154C7 enzyme from *Streptomyces* sp. PAMC26508, highlighting its ability to hydroxylate steroids efficiently, particularly androstenedione, and identified key amino acids important for substrate selectivity and catalytic efficiency.

Abatacept may help some people with alopecia areata regrow hair.

This study found that compounds isolated from the Etlingera alba rhizome exhibited cytotoxic and anti-metastatic activity, with potential for development against Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.

Female mice are less affected by certain substances that alter alcohol consumption compared to male mice.

In this systematic review, animal studies showed that cytarabine causes multi-organ toxicities, notably neurotoxicity, linked to oxidative stress and other mechanisms, though study quality raises concerns about reliability and translation to human outcomes.

This study explored using tyrosine as a cross-linking agent for curling Asian hair and found that it could shape hair effectively before washing without damaging the fibers, though the method was less effective after washing compared to commercial products.

This review describes how liver and kidney diseases and diabetes may affect ethyl glucuronide levels in hair, impacting forensic and clinical interpretations, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that high doses of ethyl acetate extract from Tridax procumbens can have specific toxic effects in rats, including organ damage and significant changes in some serum biochemical parameters.

This open-access journal publishes innovative research articles across various fields but reports no new clinical results in this summary.

Selective chemical epilation effectively treats tinea capitis without harmful side effects.

This review highlights the diverse potential medicinal properties of kavalactones from Alpinia zerumbet, which include antioxidant, anti-cancer, and anti-inflammatory activities, among others, and suggests fields for further research.

This study concluded that the expression of specific glycoconjugate terminal sugars is developmentally regulated during rat hair follicle morphogenesis.

This study found that amphetamine was preferentially incorporated into black hair compared to white hair in Long-Evans rats, suggesting a role for drug basicity in hair color-based drug incorporation.

This study found that a food supplement improved skin moisturization, elasticity, and thickness, reduced telogen hair density, and enhanced nail status in women with mild-to-moderate aging signs after 84 days.

This study found that tenuazonic acid from Alternaria alternata can cause significant damage to vital organs in mice at low doses and highlights the need for regulatory measures to manage its risk in agricultural products.

This study suggests that using glycosidases to lyse the polysaccharides of Botryoccocus braunii may allow for the semi-continuous recovery of hydrocarbons while keeping the cells viable.

This study found that aliphatic ester moieties in 16-formyl-17-methoxy dehydroepiandrosterone derivatives increased their potency as 5α-reductase type 2 inhibitors in vitro compared to finasteride.

This research focused on formulating finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil with cyclodextrins to enhance their solubility and skin penetration for topical use, potentially reducing scalp irritation from current alcohol-based preparations.

This study synthesized nonsteroidal ligands as second-generation androgen receptor agonists and identified three compounds with significant anabolic activity and moderate to minimal androgenic activity in vivo.

This study found that oral treatment with Chamaecyparis obtusa var. formosana leaf extracts improved glucose metabolism and reduced insulin resistance in hyperglycemic rats, suggesting potential as a diabetes health supplement.

This review discusses the preclinical findings on cyproterone acetate and suggests that while it has a low potential cancer risk for patients, its tumor effects in female rats may involve both genotoxic and mitogenic mechanisms.

This study found that using a bicomponent reduction system with TGA and DTDG for hair straightening limited hair damage by forming only thiol groups, while a TGA-only system formed more damaging mixed disulfide groups.

This case report describes a 40-year-old woman who developed erythema annulare centrifugum, a type of skin rash, likely triggered by taking the drug aceclofenac.
