This study found that dermal papilla and peribulbar dermal sheath cup cells in mice can both induce hair follicle formation, suggesting they may have similar functional roles in hair growth.

This study demonstrated that blocking S100A3 in mice inhibited hair growth by delaying the anagen phase and reducing the number of hair follicles, suggesting S100A3 as a potential target for hair loss treatments.

This study reports various adverse effects associated with different doses and administration methods of a medical treatment, including gastrointestinal issues and hair loss, leading to modifications or discontinuations in some patients.

This article reviews hair loss associated with oral contraceptive use and suggests that while diffuse effluvium is usually harmless, androgenetic alopecia caused by certain contraceptive types requires a change in medication; no new clinical results are reported.

In this study, 19 patients treated with finasteride for androgenetic alopecia developed moderate to severe depression, which resolved after stopping the medication, suggesting an association between finasteride and mood disturbances.

This study found that a cosmetic formula containing 2% Orthosiphon stamineus leaf extract significantly reduced skin oiliness and pore size, showing better results than a formula with 1% zinc gluconate.

This study found that autologous growth factor injections for androgenetic alopecia improved hair density, thickness, and patient satisfaction over 12 months; however, high bias risk and non-standardized methods limit the evidence's reliability, highlighting the need for larger, standardized trials.

This study suggests that Breezula® and Minoxidil both enhance hair growth in male pattern hair loss by promoting keratinocyte proliferation, with Breezula® potentially more potent in reducing the hair growth inhibitor IL-6.

Authors defend finasteride-depression link, suggest detailed medical history, and call for more investigation.

This study used machine learning models to analyze PCOS symptoms for early diagnosis, finding Support Vector Machine and VGG16 algorithms achieved high accuracy rates of 94.44% and 98.29% respectively.

This analysis concluded that mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosome therapy may offer a promising and safe approach for hair restoration, especially in androgenetic alopecia, despite limitations in study consistency and size.
