This review discusses adverse effects of cosmetic products and procedures on the ocular surface, including mild discomfort to severe vision-threatening conditions, and reports no new clinical results.

In this in vitro study, minoxidil, diazoxide, and the novel compound NNC 55-0118 increased hair follicle growth, supporting deer follicles as a viable bioassay for ATP-sensitive potassium channel modulators.

High doses of finasteride cause cell growth and tumors in mice.

These drugs raise prostaglandin-like material in dog blood, possibly causing blood vessel widening.

This study found that electrospun short fibrous sponges effectively mimic the 3D extracellular matrix, promoting tissue regeneration, angiogenesis, and wound healing in diabetic rats better than 2D fiber membranes.

This review discusses the pharmacological properties and physiological regulation of neuroactive steroids, focusing on their varied responses to stress and ethanol in rats, mice, and humans, but it reports no new findings.

This study found that Ecklonia cava enzymatic extract, particularly its component dieckol, promoted hair growth by increasing dermal papilla cell proliferation and inhibiting 5α-reductase activity in cultured vibrissa follicles and C57BL/6 mice.

In this mouse study, researchers found that hydrogen peroxide and monoethanolamine in hair dyes may be key contributors to dermatitis and hair loss due to oxidative stress.

In this study, thymosin beta4 over-expression in transgenic mice was linked to accelerated hair growth and abnormal tooth development, suggesting roles in hair and tooth physiology.

This study found that Minoxidil had biphasic effects on normal human keratinocytes, stimulating proliferation at micromolar doses, but showing antiproliferative, pro-differentiative, and cytotoxic effects at millimolar concentrations.

This study established a new cell line from human hair follicle stem cells that maintains stem cell properties and differentiation capabilities, providing a useful in vitro model for stem cell research.

This study observed that two patients treated with interferon α-2b and ribavirin for chronic hepatitis C experienced complete and reversible straightening of their natural curly hair, which recurred with treatment resumption.

This study observed that rat vibrissa hair follicles cultured in vitro showed morphological changes suggesting cyclical activity but remained blocked in the pro-anagen stage.

This study found that 4-MA is a potent inhibitor of testosterone 5α-reductase in human tissues, promising potential for treating androgen-dependent skin conditions like male pattern baldness.

This study found that cepharanthine can inhibit gastric cancer cell activity by inducing oxidative stress and altering energy metabolism, suggesting its potential for gastric cancer treatment.

This review suggested that low-level light therapy using red/near-infrared light could be a safe and effective treatment for various skin and hair conditions, though more robust trials are needed to solidify its clinical utility.

This study found that intradermal administration of adipose-derived stem cell–conditioned medium significantly increased hair density and dermal thickness, suggesting potential regenerative effects on both hair follicles and the interfollicular scalp in patients with alopecia.

This review found that most studies support the effectiveness and safety of using hyaluronic acid fillers and laser treatments together for facial rejuvenation, but highlights that the evidence is limited to small, nonrandomized studies and additional research is necessary.

This review discusses the use of platelet-rich plasma for various dermatological conditions and highlights the need for more research to standardize its protocols and understand its biological mechanisms.

This study demonstrates the use of the CRISPR-Cas9 system to successfully edit the EDAR gene in Cashmere goats, resulting in goats with distinct hair follicle characteristics.

This study found that red ginseng oil and its major components improved hair regrowth in testosterone-treated mice by promoting an earlier anagen phase and altering related gene expressions.

This study suggests that LED light may promote the proliferation of human dermal papilla cells through the activation of specific signaling pathways.

This study found that the application of calreticulin significantly improved wound healing time and quality in diabetic mice, suggesting it may be an effective topical treatment for chronic wounds.

This study found that inhaled fluticasone for 11 months did not adversely affect the immune function or response to vaccination in horses with heaves.

Testosterone was found to inhibit hair follicle epithelial cell proliferation in adult stumptailed macaques only when dermal papilla cells from bald scalps were present, and this effect was reversed by the antiandrogen RU 58841.

Cromakalim relaxes various blood vessels, while minoxidil sulphate is more selective; they likely act on different potassium channels.

In this study, researchers found that alkylating chemotherapy causes hair follicle stem cells to lose their regenerative ability by initially triggering proliferation followed by apoptosis, leading to permanent regeneration loss.

This study found that adiponectin significantly enhanced lipid production in human sebaceous glands and may be a potential target for treating conditions with reduced sebum production.

This study observed that in primary extramammary Paget disease, carcinoma commonly spreads to significant depths along hair follicles and eccrine ducts, with a maximal depth of 3.6 mm.

This study demonstrated that topical oleuropein induced hair growth in mice by activating the Wnt10b/β-catenin signaling pathway and increasing expression of several growth-related genes in skin tissue.
