In this study, lysozyme was found to promote vibrissae follicle growth in vitro by enhancing the hair-inductive capacity of dermal papilla cells.

This review discusses idiopathic hirsutism and suggests that combination treatment, including androgen suppression and cosmetic methods, is most effective, but notes that its pathogenesis remains unclear.

This case report suggests that madarosis, or eyelash loss, may be associated with mitochondriopathy, expanding the known causes of madarosis to include this condition.

This case study observed that long-term itraconazole and budesonide use in a cystic fibrosis patient led to iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome due to inhibited metabolic clearance of budesonide, suggesting a need for regular adrenal insufficiency monitoring in such treatments.

This study found that epithelial components of calcifying epithelioma of Malherbe showed lectin binding and keratin staining patterns similar to normal hair follicles, with prominent Con A staining in tumor giant cells.

This study synthesized existing research on 11 tropical seed varieties, underscoring their potential in food, pharmaceutical, and agricultural industries due to their phytochemicals and nutrients, such as phenolics and vitamins, which could reduce waste and support sustainable practices.

This review highlights the potential of nanotechnology-based formulations in hair care and treatment, emphasizing how these innovative materials can enhance the stability, efficacy, and safety of active compounds while addressing the limitations of conventional formulations.

This study observed that proteins in the mTOR signaling pathway are expressed differently in the hair follicles of patients with lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting a role in the pathogenesis of these conditions.

This case report discusses a postmenopausal woman whose hyperandrogenism and metabolic symptoms improved significantly after the surgical removal of an ovarian Leydig cell tumor, confirmed post-operatively.

This study examines the use of urotherapy in Spanish folk medicine, highlighting its widespread application for treating skin conditions and the cultural symbolism associated with urine-based remedies.

This study reports that mutations in human L-PGDS affect the entrance and exit of ligands in its binding cavity, suggesting these residues play a role in ligand interaction processes.

In this study, higher urethral prostate-specific antigen (urPSA) levels in men after radical prostatectomy were associated with higher androgenic alopecia scores and higher postoperative PSA.

This study found that the Meibomian gland shares structural and cytokeratin composition similarities with hair follicles, and plays a role in hyper-keratinisation observed in obstructive Meibomian gland dysfunction.

This study found that finasteride administration in hamsters led to significant spermatogenesis reduction and seminiferous tubule atrophy compared to the control group.

In this guideline update, researchers emphasized refining diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome using ultrasound or hormone levels, while highlighting a healthy lifestyle's importance without specific diet recommendations, and reviewed treatments with a focus on comorbidities and pregnancies from a Nordic standpoint.

This study found that patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia had significantly more titanium-containing nanoparticles in their hair compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential environmental influence.

This study developed two sensitive chromatographic methods for determining finasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride in pharmaceutical forms, validated against International Conference on Harmonisation guidelines.

This study found that both finasteride and metformin effectively reduced androgen levels and insulin resistance parameters in women with PCOS, without clear evidence of one treatment being superior.

This study found that novel compounds moderately inhibited 5α-reductase type 1 activity compared to finasteride, offering valuable data on structure-activity relationships.

This study observed that both excessive and deficient selenium levels in a C57BL/6 mouse model were associated with hair loss and changes in hair follicles, likely due to alterations in the hair follicle cycle and increased apoptosis.

In this study, AFM-based indentation was used to assess mechanical properties of murine skin wounds at two healing stages, revealing that early wounds exhibit stiffer hyperproliferative epithelium compared to granulation tissue, and highlighting significant influences of surface roughness on tissue stiffness measurements.

This study demonstrates that a bioinspired peptide, PepACS, can efficiently and safely perm hair by interacting with keratin's sulfhydryl group without compromising tensile strength, and it shows potential for hair repair and dyeing applications in the hair care industry.

This case report describes how real-time PCR rapidly identified Trichophyton mentagrophytes in a dog's dermatophytosis when traditional mycological methods were slower.

The researchers reported that protocatechuic acid reduced melanin synthesis and enhanced antioxidant activity in cultured human hair follicle melanocytes, indicating potential for skin whitening applications.

In this case study, a Persian cat with dermatophytosis showed a reduction in skin lesions after being treated with oral itraconazole and topical ketoconazole.

This study found that Angiotensin II is expressed more in black sheep skins compared to white sheep skins, suggesting its involvement in coat color regulation.

This study found that administering Neem ethanol extract to pregnant and lactating rats did not cause developmental abnormalities or toxicity in the offspring at tested doses.

This review explores the psychosocial impact of PCOS symptoms on health-related quality of life, emphasizing the need for multidisciplinary care and individual perspectives, but reports no new research findings.

This study used rapid-freezing immunocytochemistry to successfully map the ultrastructural localization of hair keratins in human scalp hair, primarily finding them in macrofibrils in the cortex and endocuticle.
