This study demonstrated that an ethanol extract of Connarus semidecandrus Jack showed potential anti-androgenic alopecia effects in a testosterone-induced model, suggesting a possible treatment option for hair loss.

This study observed that drug-naïve first-episode psychosis patients had higher hair cortisol concentrations than healthy controls, and these concentrations correlated with the severity of psychopathology.

This meta-analysis found a consistent positive association between glucocorticoids in hair and obesity measures, with the relationship between hair cortisone and waist circumference being particularly clinically relevant.

This review discusses the use of hair cortisol concentration as a marker for chronic stress and long-term cortisol secretion in animals, highlighting its benefits and the need for standardized sampling protocols.

This study used a glucocorticoid-injection model to mimic kidney-yang deficiency syndrome and reported symptoms related to hormonal imbalances in the hypothalamic-pituitary-target gland axes.

This review examines the literature on autoimmune hair loss disorders, highlighting the collapse of immune privilege and the potential role of neurogenic stress in this process, but reports no new clinical results.

In this review, researchers examined the physiological benefits of Cheonggukjang, a salt-free fermented soybean paste, highlighting its various health-promoting components that may contribute to improved heart health, diabetes management, and cancer prevention, among other benefits.

This review highlights that while moderate physical activity benefits skin health by improving circulation and reducing stress, intense exercise or inadequate protective measures can harm the skin, emphasizing the need for sun protection and personalized care.

This study developed a culture method to expand and differentiate primary mammary basal cells, identifying key transcription factors like EGR1 and ELF3 that influence Claudin expression and actin organization, offering insights into epithelial cell biology and potential applications in related research fields.

This review discusses prolactin production and regulation in human skin and hair follicles, highlighting its potential broader implications but reports no new empirical results.

This review discusses existing literature on the effects of isoflavone in alleviating PCOS symptoms, highlighting its potential benefits in reducing testosterone levels, improving metabolic profiles, and lowering inflammation and oxidative stress, although findings have been both significant and non-significant.

In this study, cedrol was found to reduce lipid accumulation in the liver and adipose tissues of dexamethasone-treated mice by antagonizing glucocorticoid receptors, suggesting its potential utility in treating dexamethasone-induced lipid metabolism disorders.

This study evaluated the antiulcer potential of Glycyrrhiza glabra and found that its hydroalcoholic extract demonstrated dose-dependent protective effects against various ulcer models, comparable to standard drugs like omeprazole and cimetidine, by enhancing mucosal defenses and reducing stomach acid production.

This article discusses the rationale, design, and significant findings of the long-running Rotterdam Study but reports no new clinical results.

A rare benign skin tumor showed unusual features of sebaceous and sweat glands, important for correct diagnosis.

This article discusses the potential of acupuncture as a complementary or alternative therapy for PCOS, highlighting experimental evidence of its positive effects on reproductive and metabolic function, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that alopecia areata patients had increased insulin resistance compared to controls, suggesting a potential link between inflammation, stress axis activation, and insulin resistance in this population.

This study provides evidence that psychoemotional stress inhibits hair growth in mice by affecting the brain-hair follicle axis, with specific neuropeptides and treatments modulating this effect.

In this study, finasteride-treated WAG/Rij rats showed a significant increase in spike-wave discharges when administered endogenous steroids THPROG and THDOC, indicating potential exacerbation of absence seizures.

This article reviews the possible therapeutic activities of Angelica gigas Nakai root extracts and their components, noting their potential effects on neuro-cognitive, metabolic, and other health conditions, and reports no new clinical results.

This study on female Wistar rats with stress-induced alopecia found that a modified diet rich in antioxidants and nutrients reduced dystrophic skin changes and preserved the functional activity of hair follicles, suggesting dietary approaches may support hair restoration under chronic stress conditions.

In this case report, two patients with polyautoimmunity and difficult-to-treat lupus erythematosus experienced significant symptom improvement after adding anifrolumab to their regimen, suggesting its potential as an effective add-on therapy for refractory cutaneous symptoms in autoimmune conditions characterized by elevated interferon alpha activity.

In this case report, two patients with coexisting systemic lupus erythematous and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder achieved remission of SLE activity using an anti-CD19 monoclonal antibody.

This study found that neurosteroids influence oxytocin secretion in sheep, particularly during stress and pregnancy, suggesting their role in protecting and maintaining pregnancy under harmful conditions.

This study found that 10,11-dibrominecrebanine (2Br-Cre) and Stephanine demonstrate significant anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties in various experimental models, with 2Br-Cre showing enhanced efficacy over Cre and both compounds potentially mediating their analgesic effects through opioid receptors.

In this narrative hypothesis-driven overview, the authors propose reframing rosacea as a neuroimmune disorder, highlighting the interconnected role of the skin-gut-brain axis, particularly central nervous system involvement alongside gut microbiota and neurogenic inflammation, to emphasize the need for multidisciplinary therapeutic approaches.

This review explores the skin benefits of exercise and discusses how artificial intelligence can tailor exercise programs to individual skin health needs, emphasizing the potential of AI-driven strategies in cosmetic dermatology for more personalized and adaptive skincare approaches.
