This study reported that finasteride administered at 2.5 mg/day was clinically effective in 62% of women with female pattern hair loss, with greater efficacy observed in those who were premenopausal or had a lower Ludwig score.

This review discusses the epidemiology and available treatments for male androgenetic alopecia, noting that while current therapies can slow progression, they provide only partial hair restoration, and further research is needed for new strategies.

In this study, trichoscopy was identified as a useful non-invasive tool to aid in the diagnosis of female pattern hair loss, with peri pilar sign and hair diameter variability being common findings.

This study found that estrogen receptor beta, not alpha, is the main mediator of estrogen action in human skin and hair follicles, suggesting a distinct role in these tissues.

This study found that overexpression of the mineralocorticoid receptor in a mouse model led to premature epidermal barrier development, keratinocyte apoptosis, and postnatal alopecia, indicating new roles for MR signaling in skin physiology.

This paper explores the complex immune processes and cellular diversity that enable the skin to heal and resist invasion, and highlights its potential as a model for studying regeneration.

This study found that hair proteome profiling and genetically variant peptide identification in hairs remained effective after an explosive blast, indicating potential for forensic human identification despite damage.

This study found that nuclear androgen receptor expression was enhanced by dihydrotestosterone in rat gubernacular mesenchyme, but this did not affect muscle morphology or matrix composition during fetal development.

This study found that human skin melanocytes with low mutation burdens are smaller, less dendritic, and exhibit stem-like features, often residing in UV-protected hair follicles, suggesting their role in replenishing sun-damaged epidermis.

This review found that many low-level light therapy studies report beneficial effects but often fail to provide adequate measurement details, affecting the reliability and repeatability of the research.

The authors suggest that nanoparticles, synthesized from biological sources, may enable targeted cancer therapy with fewer side effects than traditional methods.

This paper presents a case study of a 21-year-old male with thyroid hemiagenesis, where the left thyroid lobe and isthmus are absent, and discusses the anomaly's potential clinical consequences based on existing literature.

This case report documents a rare instance of a trichilemmal cyst occurring on the plantar surface of the foot, highlighting the necessity of histological examination for accurate diagnosis when clinical or radiological presentations are atypical.

This study found a significant association between pseudofolliculitis barbae and mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, but not with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

This review found that linoleic acid, when used in various skincare product formulations such as creams and serums, offers potential benefits for skin regeneration and hair growth, highlighting its promise as a natural, sustainable ingredient in cosmetics.

This study found that a community education program using group discussions and leaflets significantly increased knowledge and skills among Sungai Bilu residents in South Kalimantan for using riverbank plants as alternative medicine.

This study found that a hair tonic made with 30% ethanol extract from papaya fruit peel effectively promoted hair growth in guinea pigs, with results close to those of a positive control, and contains beneficial compounds like alkaloids and flavonoids.

This study optimized the extraction process for abomasum protein from Tianshan red deer, identifying two proteins with anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor activities, suggesting they could be beneficial in foods and nutraceuticals.

This article reviews the pathogenesis, complications, and management of lichen planus, especially its persistent oral form, and highlights the need for further prospective studies.

This review discusses plant-based alternatives for hair tonic formulations to address hair loss and contains no new clinical results, advocating for plant extracts as safer options than synthetic ingredients.

This study found that topical transplantation of green fluorescent protein-labeled bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells significantly improved regeneration of deeper wounds, with increased blood vessel formation, compared to control in a rat model.

This review discusses the use of oils in herbal cosmetics for skin and hair care and reports no new research results.

This study found that in mice, dermal adipocytes initiate inflammation and aid repair after skin injury by releasing lipids, suggesting a role in managing inflammatory diseases and impaired wound healing.

This paper reviews the use of interferons, particularly alfa interferon, in treating cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, noting its substantial efficacy both alone and in combination therapies with predictable, generally well-tolerated side effects.

This study found that DGAT1 functions as a key enzyme in murine skin to regulate retinoic acid levels and prevent retinoid toxicity, impacting hair cycle and sensitivity to retinol.

Hair growth can be induced by certain cells found at the base of hair follicles, and these cells may also influence hair development and regeneration.

This study found that oxidative damage is present in the mitochondria of PolG mice, which exhibit premature aging-like phenotypes due to mitochondrial dysfunction.

This study found that keratin 19, unlike keratin 14, forms less stable filaments with keratin 5, suggesting distinct assembly properties and potential unique roles in skin basal cells.

This study developed granular hydrogels with reversible interparticle cross-linking, finding they offer high mechanical stability and enhance cell recruitment, making them promising for injectable and 3D printable scaffolds in tissue engineering and therapeutic delivery.
