This study describes the diagnosis and successful management of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome in a 78-year-old man, highlighting improvement in symptoms and endoscopic findings after treatment with prednisone and supportive therapies.

In this study, sandalore was found to activate OR2AT4, which inhibits senescent cell traits and restores proliferation in human keratinocytes, suggesting potential anti-aging applications.

In this study, the n-hexane fraction of Carthamus oxyacantha methanolic extract exhibited significant 5α-reductase inhibitory activity in vitro, suggesting potential therapeutic use for benign prostatic hyperplasia through DHT inhibition.

In this animal study, pigs on a biotin-deficient diet showed significant hair loss, weak and brittle claws, and skin lesions after 8–10 weeks, with tissue necrosis observed microscopically after 15 weeks.

Cortexolone 17a-propionate may be an effective new treatment for hair loss.

This study found that cortexolone 17α-propionate showed strong topical antiandrogenic activity, outperforming progesterone and several known antiandrogens, but lacked systemic antiandrogenic effects in animal models.

This study notes the ongoing challenge in developing new drugs for androgenetic alopecia, mentioning that both minoxidil and finasteride were originally intended for treating hypertension. Results are not reported.

This study found that fruit extracts from certain Egyptian Sabal species demonstrated significant anti-androgenic activity and potential therapeutic effects against benign prostatic hyperplasia in rat models and cell lines.

In randomized controlled trials, this research reports that cyclosporin is as effective as glucocorticoids for treating canine atopic dermatitis and has potential benefits for other immune-mediated skin conditions in dogs.

This case report describes a 22-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed scurvy due to low serum ascorbic acid, despite a diet of white meat and processed foods.

This article reviews carbohydrate metabolism in plants, focusing on enhancing soybean product diversity and quality, and reports no new research results.

In this study, synthesized composite nanocarriers containing ribose and peptides demonstrated enhanced transdermal delivery, improved uptake by skin cells, promoted cell proliferation, enhanced antioxidant enzyme activities, and increased autophagy, suggesting a potential for more effective skin anti-aging treatments.

Dog hair follicles contain important molecules that may affect hair growth.

This study suggests that the expression of VLCFA biosynthesis genes is suppressed in skin hyperplasia and cancer, which could influence keratinocyte function.

This study found that distinct glycoconjugate expression patterns in human hair follicle cells suggest complex carbohydrate metabolism, revealing a unique sugar moiety in outer root sheath cells not present in other keratinocytes.

In this case report, treatment involving anthelmintic pyrantel pamoate and antiparasitic sarolaner effectively reduced pruritus and physical symptoms of scabiosis and ancylostomyosis in a puppy, with notable improvements observed by day 14.

In this study, Carthamus caeruleus root juice exhibited in vitro anti-inflammatory effects by stabilizing human erythrocyte membranes and inhibiting albumin denaturation, as well as showing potential inhibition of COX-2 through in silico analysis; however, further research is needed to confirm efficacy and mechanisms.

This study found that hair contains tightly bound lipids such as cholesterol sulfate, cholesterol, fatty alcohols, and free fatty acids, which are resistant to solvent extraction.

This study found that a highly resistant structure, located at the interface between the cuticle and cortex of human hair, acts as a penetration barrier, which the authors propose to name the "cuticle anchored resistant base" or CARB.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy with argon sputter etching visualizes hair lipids at the cell membrane complex as distinctive convex structures, shedding light on their role and localization in human hair.

This study found that the solid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system improved the oral bioavailability of carvedilol significantly compared to the drug alone, enhancing its solubility, dissolution, AUC, and Cmax.

This study found that calanthoside, a compound isolated from Calanthe species, promotes the proliferation of human hair follicle dermal papilla cells more effectively than minoxidil.

This cross-meta-analysis examined policosanol biorefining methods in 18 Ibero-American countries, reporting that Cuba, Spain, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Portugal show significant advances, but highlighted the need for better coordination between academia and industry for improved yield efficiency.

This case report describes a 60-year-old woman with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome whose symptoms and polyposis improved following prednisolone therapy, but emphasizes the need for periodic digestive tract screening due to associated cancer risks.

This review highlights the potential of coffee silverskin's bioactive compounds in combating skin aging and related conditions, suggesting it as a promising natural ingredient for cosmetics due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging properties.

This study demonstrates a method to noninvasively assess lipid classes in rodent sebum via high-field proton NMR, observing significant lipid reductions in rats treated with an SCD1 inhibitor.

In this animal study, mice on a high-fat diet experienced weakened hair follicles but regained hair growth after treatment with wood sterol, which improved hair follicle health and altered hormone levels, suggesting its potential as a preventive measure for diet-induced alopecia.

This news review reports on the latest developments in lipid technology but presents no new research findings.
