This study developed and tested Bicalutamide-loaded lipid vesicles in dissolving microarray patches for topical application, finding that they effectively deliver Bicalutamide through murine skin while maintaining a favorable safety profile, suggesting potential to improve treatments for androgenetic alopecia.

Using mouse hair follicle organoids, this study demonstrated that BMP4 plays a key role in controlling hair follicle coloration and growth, as well as directing Nestin-positive stem cells towards becoming melanocytes, the pigment-producing cells responsible for hair color.

This research identified a genetic mutation in Brachypodium distachyon that initially allows root hair initiation but fails to elongate them, while also affecting root growth and nitrate sensitivity; the mutation is linked to a previously uncharacterized cyclin-dependent kinase-like gene.

This study found that IGF1, retinoic acid, and dexamethasone increase IGFBP-3 production in cultured human dermal papilla cells, potentially inhibiting IGF1 action on hair growth.

This study found that topical administration of the TGFβ mimetic peptide DPS-1 stimulated hair growth in mice by promoting HDP cell proliferation and enhancing hair follicle morphology.

This study identified that blocking the PTGDR2 receptor in human hair follicles in vitro and in mice reversed the hair growth inhibition caused by PGD2, suggesting a potential approach for treating alopecia.

In this study, researchers evaluated how subjects perceive the effectiveness of three FDA-cleared photobiomodulation devices for home use in treating androgenetic alopecia, though specific outcomes or comparative effectiveness are not reported in the abstract.

This study suggests that hair loss disorders like Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis may result from mutations that disrupt post-transcriptional regulation of HR protein expression by PCPB2 interacting with Hr mRNA.

This report describes a patient with biotinidase deficiency presenting bilateral optic atrophy, and confirms autosomal recessive inheritance through enzyme dosage analysis in the patient and family members.

This study found that the BP-3 extract from Boesenbergia rotunda, rich in panduratin A, demonstrated strong anti-adipogenesis and lipolysis effects on preadipocyte cells at non-toxic concentrations, and when formulated into a serum reduced thigh circumference and improved skin firmness in a human trial.

This study identified ABCB6 as the first gene linked to dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria (DUH) in a large Chinese family, suggesting it plays a role in skin pigmentation.

This review discusses photobiomodulation therapy for different types of alopecia and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight potential mechanisms and future perspectives.

In vivo using the C3H mouse model, this study observed that BST2 expression occurs before hair loss in alopecia areata and is followed by an increase in epidermal γδ T cell numbers.

This review covers the molecular basis of Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome and its implications for potential therapeutic targets, but it does not report new experimental results.

This study found that mrp/plf-mRNA expression in murine skin increases in response to different tumor promoters, suggesting its potential as a short-term biomarker for chemical carcinogenesis.

This study found that applying BMP2 stimulated limited regeneration of the amputated P2 bone in mice, but only when applied during a specific "regeneration window" after injury.

Photobiomodulation is an effective and safe treatment for increasing hair growth in people with hair loss.

In this study, 12-Chloracetyl-PPD showed anti-cancer activity by inhibiting cancer cell viability and inducing apoptosis through reactive oxygen species production without harming normal cells.

This study identified that Eda-A1 unexpectedly induces placode inhibitors dkk4 and lrp4, indicating the importance of tightly regulated signaling for proper ectodermal organ development.

This study reports that the Swedish newborn screening program for phenylketonuria, galactosaemia, and biotinidase deficiency is effective, with high sensitivity and specificity, and lower false positive rates compared to other countries, while genetic variants impact detection and incidence patterns in Sweden.

This study describes Pseudopelade of Brocq as a rare and enigmatic scarring alopecia characterized by irregular hair loss patterns on the scalp, requiring exclusion of other conditions like lichen planopilaris and discoid lupus erythematosus for a specific diagnosis.

In this study, several photobiomodulation devices showed statistically significant improvement in hair growth for patients with androgenetic alopecia, with varying efficacy between devices and genders.

In this study, the use of rb‐bFGF in hair transplantation significantly increased follicle survival, reduced hair loss, improved patient satisfaction, and decreased complications compared to controls, in patients with androgenetic alopecia over a 12-month period.

This study found that elevated tissue RBP4 levels correlate with disease severity in alopecia areata and decrease after effective baricitinib treatment, while the rs3758539 polymorphism is linked to disease susceptibility but not to treatment response.

This study found that circAGK was highly expressed in AGA patients and promoted dermal papilla cell apoptosis, suggesting it as a potential target for treating androgen alopecia.

This study found that RADA-PRG hydrogels enhanced skin-derived precursor cell proliferation and improved hair follicle neogenesis in mice, suggesting potential use as a scaffold material in tissue engineering.

This study found that the progesterone metabolite 3α-THP increased the proliferation and gene expression of human glioblastoma cells, suggesting a role in tumor progression.

This study found that transgenic mice with keratinocyte-specific overexpression of CtBP1 exhibited abnormal hair follicle development, suggesting CtBP1 may play a pathogenic role in hair morphogenesis.

This letter discusses three plasmacytoid dendritic cell-related parameters that may help differentiate lupus alopecia from lichen planopilaris, but it reports no new study results.

This study found that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) inhibited hair shaft elongation and induced premature catagen development in cultured human hair follicles, partially through transforming growth factor β2.
