This study describes and characterizes four cases of alopecia areata induced by immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy in cancer patients, highlighting the importance of recognizing and managing these hair-related adverse events.

This review explores the complex, context-dependent roles of tumor-secreted proteins and suggests that some proteins traditionally seen as tumor-promotive may act as tumor-suppressors in different environments, emphasizing the influence of cell fitness and treatment exposure.

This study found that red ginseng oil promoted hair growth and protected against UVC-induced skin damage in mouse models.

This study identified a series of novel β-glucuronidase inhibitors that may help mitigate adverse effects of first-line anti-cancer drugs by targeting gut bacteria, based on virtual high-throughput screening findings.

In this study, albendazole treatment in patients with hydatid disease was associated with decreased microsomal enzyme function and induced its own metabolism, but also showed potential hepatotoxicity and severe side effects, necessitating careful monitoring.

This study found that Lactobacillus acidophilus cell-free supernatant caused significant cytotoxicity, reduced migratory ability, and induced apoptosis in cervical cancer cell lines, suggesting its potential as a non-toxic adjunct therapy for cervical cancer.

In this study, the ethyl acetate extract of Semecarpus anacardium Linn leaves was reported to induce cytotoxicity in cancer cells, cause cell cycle arrest, and suppress tumor growth in mice.

In this phase II clinical study, combining anlotinib with standard platinum-based chemotherapy showed promising outcomes and prognosis in treating extensive small-cell lung cancer, with high disease control and response rates.

This study found that Si extract, cryptomeridiol, and SiAgNPs have the ability to induce cell death and prevent cell growth in HepG2 liver cancer cells, suggesting cryptomeridiol's potential as a phytochemical component in developing new therapies for hepatocellular carcinoma using nanotechnology in vitro.

This review highlights the potential of herbal remedies as complementary options for breast cancer care, noting benefits like immune modulation and reduced chemotherapy side effects, in contrast to conventional treatments that often cause significant side effects and long-term health issues.

This study found that the ethyl acetate extract of Semecarpus anacardium leaves demonstrated cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cancer cells and induced apoptosis, suggesting potential as a cancer treatment with fewer side effects.

In this study, subcutaneous platelet-rich plasma injections improved hair density and histological markers of hair growth in hairless rats without causing local toxicity.

This review assessed experimental studies on herbs used for alopecia, identifying potential mechanisms involving hair cycle management and keratinocyte processes, but highlighted a need for improved evidence on quality control and toxicity of these herbal treatments.
