In this study, researchers found that inhibiting IKKα in patient-derived CCS tumour models reduces tumour viability, supporting the potential for topical IKKα inhibitors as a treatment for CCS.

This study found that a supplement containing cystine, B vitamins, and minerals improved hair condition in 34 women with diffuse hair loss over six months, as evidenced by an increased anagen/telogen hair ratio, positive participant feedback, and no serious side effects.

This review highlights emerging evidence that chemotherapy-induced alopecia may be driven by immune mechanisms similar to alopecia areata, involving hair follicle immune privilege collapse, and evaluates Janus kinase inhibitors as potential treatments, while cautioning about their immunosuppressive risks in cancer patients.

This study found that certain genetic variants, specifically CYB5R1 and IL1A, may be linked to different types of acne scarring, with CYB5R1 associated with atrophic scarring and IL1A with fibrotic scarring, indicating a potential polygenic nature of acne scarring.

This review highlights the critical role of microRNAs in regulating hair follicle biology, significantly impacting wool and cashmere development by modulating gene expression and signaling pathways in sheep and goats.

In human hair follicle cultures, this study found that cyclohexyl salicylate, an OR2A4/7 agonist, promoted hair growth by delaying catagen development and expanding epithelial stem cell progeny, suggesting its potential as a non-drug hair loss treatment.

This study found that Yangxuebushen Decoction significantly promoted hair regrowth and improved hair follicle structure in a cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia mouse model by reducing inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis.

This study investigated how the antioxidant MitoQ and the enzyme CYP19A1 influence mitochondrial function in androgenetic alopecia. In a mouse model, both CYP19A1 overexpression and MitoQ treatment improved mitochondrial health and reversed DHT-induced hair loss factors, suggesting potential therapeutic targets for this condition.

In this study, the novel thiol-Michael click perming molecule, MA2-CySS, achieved repeatable perming with reduced oxidative damage, preserving hair keratin's structure while maintaining efficiency comparable to traditional oxidative methods.

In this study, cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) treatment in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells was associated with increased intracellular calcium retention and activated anagen-related signaling without causing significant cytotoxicity, indicating its potential impact on hair growth processes.

Immune system issues may contribute to female pattern hair loss.

In this systematic review, animal studies showed that cytarabine causes multi-organ toxicities, notably neurotoxicity, linked to oxidative stress and other mechanisms, though study quality raises concerns about reliability and translation to human outcomes.

In this study, GV-350 treatment over three months improved iron status and reduced the impact of Telogen Effluvium on quality of life among 20 iron-deficient women, with no adverse events reported.

This study observed some differences in clinical outcomes when comparing CPA with spironolactone, flutamide, and finasteride, but no differences with other therapies, possibly due to small study size and non-standardized assessments; adverse effects could not be fully compared across treatments.

This study observed that thymol from Origanum marjoram essential oil significantly promoted hair regrowth and reduced inflammation in cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia in rabbits, with effects that were comparable to or exceeded those of betamethasone, highlighting its potential as a safer treatment alternative.

Coconut oil boosts testosterone but doesn't fully trigger reproductive maturity in pufferfish.

This study found that cytokinin enhanced in vitro organogenesis, biological activities, and blooming in Vitex negundo, achieving a 100% shoot regeneration rate with specific cytokinin concentrations.

This study found that for straight hair, friction mainly influences fragment formation during combing, suggesting no direct connection to tensile fatigue failure, while with textured hair, combing performance may be more complex.

In this study, researchers identified immune differences in children with alopecia areata, finding that cytokine profiles vary based on the presence of atopic diseases; notably, patients with atopy showed a heightened T helper 2 response, potentially influencing cytokine expression and disease severity.

This study reported that a spray containing Origanum marjoram essential oil significantly improved hair regrowth, dermal thickness, weight, and lymphocyte levels in rabbits with cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia, suggesting its potential as a natural alternative for hair loss treatment.

Using high-throughput proteomics, this study identified 34 differentially expressed proteins in the lesional skin of adults with scalp psoriasis, suggesting a cytokine storm response linked to bacterial antigens.

This study reported that Cyperus rotundus L., a plant used in traditional medicine, effectively reduces hair growth with minimal side effects, showing efficacy comparable to Alexandrite laser treatments in certain cases, particularly for white hair, positioning it as a potential natural alternative to chemical depilatories.

This study suggests that T-cell recruitment, thrombosis, and increased vascular permeability may contribute to various symptom clusters in post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 through shared cytokine elevation.

This review investigates how various intrinsic factors—such as growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, and interferons—regulate hair growth through evidence gathered from in vitro and in vivo studies, highlighting the need for further research in human subjects to validate these findings.

In this case report, researchers observed that scalp cooling during chemotherapy with doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide allowed a pregnant breast cancer patient to preserve nearly all her hair, suggesting such treatment may be a safe and effective option for managing chemotherapy-related hair loss during pregnancy.

In this study, researchers found that activating RORA in hair follicle stem cells reduced the expression of cytoskeleton-related genes, affecting cell migration and adhesion, which may aid in understanding hair follicle development and potentially inform alopecia treatments.

In this study, finasteride reduced oxidative stress, apoptosis, and inflammation in liver, kidney, and testis tissues of diabetic rats while boosting antioxidants, indicating potential protective effects that require further human trials for clinical application.

This case study reports that a 45-year-old woman developed a painless nodule in the lower lip four weeks after receiving hyaluronic acid filler, which required surgical removal, highlighting the potential for delayed complications from lip augmentation procedures.

In this study, veterinary examinations of 150 domestic canines and felines revealed that M. canis was the predominant dermatophyte, affecting 9 cats and 9 dogs, with dogs showing more severe lesions and higher neutrophil counts in the cytological analysis.

In this study, human dermal papilla cells exposed to wasabi leaf extract showed changes in cytokine-related gene expression, which the authors suggest could help clarify the biological effects of wasabi.
