The researchers found that plant extracts from Papaver rhoeas L., Clitoria ternatea L., and Carthamus tinctorius L. are effective natural cosmetic dyes, offering intense and stable colors without cytotoxicity.

This study suggests that the interaction between folliculin and plakophilin-4 (p0071) may play a role in folliculin's tumor suppressor function by regulating RhoA signaling, impacting cell migration and junction formation.

This study found no protective effect of topical calcipotriol on hair loss in chemotherapy patients, and the authors propose the term "atrophic telogen effluvium" for this type of hair loss.

This study found that nanoemulsion-based formulations, such as nanoemulgel and NFs, might serve as promising topical delivery systems for treating inflammatory diseases, potentially offering an alternative to traditional nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, which are associated with adverse effects.

This study found that cyclosporin A stimulates growth in cultured murine hair epithelial cells and reduces protein kinase C expression, suggesting that these actions may contribute to its hair-growing effects.

This study identified a new cytokeratin, mK6irs, specifically expressed in the inner root sheath of mouse hair follicles, distinguishing it as a member of the type II cytokeratin family.

This study observed that patients with CYLD mutations frequently experienced severe, painful tumors beyond the head and neck, impacting their quality of life, with hormonal factors possibly contributing to tumor development.

This study observed that cyclosporine showed a trend toward improving alopecia areata symptoms compared to placebo, but the difference was not statistically significant.

This review examines androgen status in male and female obesity and its influence on the metabolic syndrome, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that reconstructed skin models can be useful for studying the effects of non-water-soluble topical products on xenobiotic metabolism, particularly in enzyme activities like EROD and GST.

This study found that the combination of cyproterone acetate and ethinyl estradiol improved hirsutism and acne in women, with SH 8.1041 showing significant results and both treatments being generally well-tolerated.

This study found that oral administration of l-cystine with vitamin B6 effectively prevents environmental cigarette smoke-induced alopecia in mice by reducing hair bulb cell apoptosis.

This study suggests that the COX-2 enzyme plays a role in hair follicle biology, as transgenic overexpression in mice induced hair follicle cycling disturbances and alopecia, which was mitigated by COX-2 inhibition.

The study found that cyproterone acetate-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers, particularly those with a 300 nm diameter, improved skin penetration and targeted hair follicles more effectively than free cyproterone acetate.

This study found that cysteine supplementation significantly increases keratin expression in human keratinocytes, and counteracts the negative impact of iron deficiency on keratin production by enhancing iron availability for cellular processes.

This study demonstrates that transfected epidermal stem cells using a novel 3D transfection system significantly enhanced wound healing and may serve as an effective therapeutic agent and gene delivery method for wound treatment.

This study suggests that although the G972R variant of the IRS1 gene might increase AA excess risk in heterozygous carriers with CYP21 mutations, both variations play a limited role in PCOS development.

In this study, the researchers identified the specific subcellular localization of the protein S100A3 in the endocuticle and cortex of human hair shafts.

This study found that the S100A3 gene is exclusively expressed in hair follicle cells differentiating into hair shaft components in mice, suggesting its important role in hair formation.

This study found that both finasteride and a regimen of cyproterone acetate plus ethinyl estradiol effectively reduced hirsutism in women, with similar results despite differing hormonal effects.

This study found that the combination of letrozole and quercetin loaded in spanlastics showed enhanced cytotoxicity and other anticancer effects against MCF-7 breast cancer cells compared to individual treatments.

In this study, rituximab treatment for children with steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome was associated with a longer remission time and fewer side effects compared to cyclophosphamide.

This study found that while cyclophosphamide remains effective for severe autoimmune conditions, it is associated with gastrointestinal side effects, infections, some cases of irreversible amenorrhoea, and a higher risk of malignancies, emphasizing the need for long-term monitoring.

In this study, cyproterone acetate with ethinyl estradiol effectively treated acne, hirsutism, and alopecia in women, with the highest success in acne and rare side effects similar to estrogen contraceptives.

This study found that platelet-rich growth factor significantly reduced the release of proinflammatory cytokines in an in vitro rheumatoid arthritis model.

In this study, a patient with cystic fibrosis developed iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome due to impaired clearance of budesonide from concurrent itraconazole use, highlighting the need for regular monitoring in such combination therapies.

This study found that keratin immunohistochemistry suggests neoplastic cells in eccrine and apocrine poromas are closely related to dermal sweat duct cells, but cannot differentiate these poromas based solely on keratin patterns.

This article reviews the use of cyclosporine in dermatological conditions, noting its benefits in treating various skin diseases despite known adverse effects like nephrotoxicity and hypertension, and highlights its preferred use over other immunosuppressants due to an early therapeutic response and a good safety profile.

This study suggests that the keratins found in reptile and bird skin appendages evolved independently from mammalian hair keratins, highlighting convergent evolution in these species.

In this retrospective study, cyproterone acetate treatment in late-pubertal trans-girls was found to be generally safe and led to mild feminizing effects, with more rapid feminization occurring when combined with estrogens.
