In this study, the combination of low level light therapy with arginine, arterial extract, or biotin tripeptide-1 was associated with improvements in hair density and follicle structure in androgenic alopecia.

Trichoscopy helped diagnose a teenage girl's hair loss as monilethrix.

This study reports an improved method for determining blood type from human hair using immunohistochemistry.

The book is a valuable resource for understanding hair and scalp problems but could be updated with more information on certain conditions.

This study found that peanut agglutinin binding patterns after neuraminidase pretreatment can help differentiate malignant melanoma from nevocellular nevus in skin specimens.

This article discusses the global interest and market presence of biotin-based supplements like Folexin for preventing alopecia, but it reports no new research findings.

This study found that, in female patients with idiopathic telogen effluvium, a supplement containing zinc, biotin, and other nutrients significantly improved hair loss and quality over 180 days, whereas another supplement with different ingredients had less consistent effects.

This case report discusses a 6-year-old girl with loose anagen hair syndrome, characterized by painlessly shedding hair, and notes no evidence of benefit from biotin supplementation.

In this case report, a young adult male with resistant alopecia areata showed nearly 90% hair regrowth after 3 months of treatment with tofacitinib, alongside biotin supplementation, without any side effects observed.

This study reviews existing literature on regenerative therapy for androgenetic alopecia, highlighting that integrating growth factors, biotin, D-pantenol, and other active ingredients using the Vittahair protocol may enhance hair follicle regeneration, increase hair density, and improve hair quality, providing a precise and evidence-based treatment alternative.

In this case report, a 33-year-old male with symptoms resembling Neuromyelitis Optica was treated with 10 mg biotin daily, which may reverse certain ophthalmologic and myelopathy findings. The researchers emphasize the need for further research on biotinidase deficiency in patients misdiagnosed with similar conditions.

In this study, 24 weeks of using Scalpoo® shampoo, containing ingredients like biotin and herbal compounds, significantly reduced hair shedding by 43.6% and increased hair thickness and count in patients with male and female pattern hair loss, as assessed by imaging and expert evaluations.

This case report observed that a selenium-deficient diet in a child with propionic acidaemia led to macrocytosis and hair abnormalities, which improved with selenium supplementation.

This study found HLA and beta 2-microglobulin antigens in various skin structures, with specific localization patterns in keratinocytes and hair follicle components, but not in eccrine or apocrine glands.

This study found that early biochemical screening and molecular confirmation are crucial for distinguishing profound from partial biotinidase deficiency, which supports timely treatment and management in symptomatic children.

This article discusses the development of targeted prodrug conjugates aimed at selectively attacking cancer cells while avoiding healthy ones, but reports no experimental results yet.

This case report describes a 6-year-old girl diagnosed with the rare concurrence of monilethrix and trichorrhexis nodosa, characterized by sparse, brittle hair, who showed minimal clinical improvement with low-dose oral and topical minoxidil treatment.

Minoxidil may improve nail growth and appearance.

This study reported that online misinformation about alopecia is widespread, with myths including incorrect causes, criticism of conventional treatments, and promotion of unproven "natural" remedies, which could negatively affect patient outcomes.

This study found that primary health physicians in Saudi Arabia generally have low knowledge and practice scores regarding the use of vitamins and minerals for treating hair loss, with no significant difference between more or less experienced doctors.

In this study, researchers analyzed internet and social media content related to hair loss, finding widespread misinformation about its causes and treatments, including unfounded criticisms of conventional therapies and promotion of alternative remedies.

This case report describes a novel association between uncombable hair syndrome and Zellweger syndrome due to a homozygous mutation in the PEX12 gene.

The AR gene is linked to male-pattern baldness, TNFSF4 to heart disease, SLC19A3 to BBGD, MCT8 to a syndrome, and segmental duplications to genetic variation.

This study found that adjusting plant growth conditions, such as the use of elicitors like yeast extract and methyl jasmonate, increased wedelolactone production in Eclipta alba cell suspension culture.

This study introduced the dual-flow-RootChip platform to demonstrate that Arabidopsis roots exhibit non-autonomous adaptations, such as hair growth regulation, when subjected to varied environmental conditions on opposite sides.

This study found that drug transport through artificial sebum varies depending on the compound, suggesting that sebum-targeted delivery can be optimized by selecting compounds based on their distinct transport profiles in sebum versus skin.

This study demonstrates that confocal laser scanning microscopy can effectively visualize the rapid diffusion and penetration pathway of a dye into the hair follicle in fresh human scalp skin.

This study found that diffusion coefficients of chemicals in artificial sebum are significantly higher than those in stratum corneum lipids, suggesting the hair follicle may significantly contribute to transdermal permeation.

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 increasing a drug's lipophilicity and adding ethanol to the donor phase can enhance its delivery to the hair follicle, although the precise transport mechanism remains unclear.
