This study found that the contribution of the hair follicle pathway to skin permeation of chemicals can be predicted using lipophilicity, with hydrophilic chemicals showing greater permeation reduction from hair follicle plugging than lipophilic ones.

This review explores how colloidal drug delivery systems can enhance the stability, absorption, and bioavailability of phytochemicals, potentially rediscovering ancient compounds' therapeutic benefits and overcoming limitations like poor solubility and bioavailability.

This review discusses the role of epidermal differentiation complex genes and epigenetic mechanisms in skin development and certain diseases, emphasizing their potential for improving drug development and delivery systems but provides no new experimental results.

In this study, a novel electrochemical sensor using a molecularly imprinted polymer was developed for the sensitive detection of minoxidil, successfully measuring its concentration in real samples.

This study found that combining herbal extracts with PRP increased human dermal papilla cell proliferation via ERK and Akt protein regulation, suggesting its potential for developing hair growth therapies.

Minoxidil lowers blood pressure, increases heart rate, and improves blood flow in dogs.

This study found that telogen effluvium and trichodynia are common in patients after COVID-19, and their severity may be influenced by the severity of the COVID-19 infection.

This study found that specific SHBG gene variants, rs727428 and rs6259, were associated with PCOS in Mediterranean women, although the associations were relatively weak and do not indicate a causative role.

In this study, the combination of pulse intravenous corticosteroids and methotrexate was associated with positive hair regrowth in severe alopecia areata patients, with half achieving total regrowth.

This study found that the yellow dot pattern observed in dermoscopy of alopecia areata corresponds to inefficient follicular structures containing hair remnants, as corroborated by reflectance confocal microscopy and pathological findings.

This study found that frontalis suspension surgery using autologous sling material effectively provided good to excellent long-term functional and aesthetic outcomes for children with severe congenital ptosis.

In this study, scalp hypothermia with the Theracool™ cooling machine was largely ineffective for preventing alopecia in breast cancer patients undergoing a chemotherapeutic regimen including cyclophosphamide and anthracyclines.

Keratin patterns in hair follicles help understand hair growth and potential hair and nail disorders.

This case report describes a patient with an allergic sensitization to minoxidil, indicating that such patients should pursue alternative therapies to treat androgenetic alopecia.

This study suggests that chicken and alligator scales evolved independently through convergent evolution rather than sharing a common origin with avian feathers.

This review highlights that children with adrenal disorders may experience neurological and psychiatric symptoms, with potential long-term cognitive and behavioral effects from excess glucocorticoids.

This article reviews different acne treatments and emphasizes the importance of being aware of their potential side effects, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that among bodybuilder-intended drugs from the black market, 33.8% of labeled products and 52.5% of steroidal oily solutions contained ingredients not matching their labels.

This study reported that women with PCOS had higher levels of certain hormones and lower SHBG levels compared to non-PCOS women with similar symptoms, highlighting a less favorable endocrine profile in PCOS cases.

This case report describes a 28-year-old man with widespread pigmented basal cell carcinomas and recurrent infections that were challenging to control, associated with nevus comedonicus and a rudimentary toe.

Minoxidil affects collagen-related genes, potentially helping treat fibrosis.

This paper discusses the limitations of clinical trials in evaluating combination treatment regimens for Alzheimer's disease and ischemic stroke, highlighting the extensive resources required for such trials.

This review examines the promising role of nanocarriers, specifically liposomes and ethosomes, in enhancing transdermal drug delivery for skin diseases. Ethosomes, highlighted for their ability to penetrate deeper skin layers, show potential for more effective treatments but require further clinical investigation.

This study found that dermal sheath stem cell characteristics are lost with aging in humans, affecting skin rejuvenation and structure, and identified specific proteins like Activin A influencing keratinocyte and fibroblast activity.

This study found that environmental factors such as smoking, alcohol consumption, exercise, and testosterone levels may significantly influence various forms of hair loss in male identical twins.

The study observed that finasteride reduced fertility in male Sprague-Dawley rats by impairing the formation of copulatory plugs, an effect considered specific to rats and not applicable to species without this reproductive feature.

This study suggests that inflammation in the skin can exacerbate intestinal inflammation in inflammatory bowel diseases by activating fibroblasts in the colon through hyaluronan fragments released during skin inflammation.

This study explored the regenerative abilities of the African spiny mouse's skin, revealing more robust wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis compared to laboratory mice and highlighting unique features of its hair and wound response.

This literature review reported that scalp hypothermia significantly decreases the occurrence of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, increasing effectiveness by 2.7-fold in controlled clinical trials and 3.9-fold in randomized trials, and highlighted a need for standard guidelines for its use.

This study found that shampoo and conditioner do not alter hair's molecular structure, while perming treatments significantly affect keratin and intermediate filament structures due to bond alterations.
