This study found that topical application of cyclosporin A and FK506 induces new hair growth in mice, while ascomycin and rapamycin do not, suggesting hair induction is not due to immunosuppression.

In this study, women treated for androgen-dependent alopecia with CPA EE2 therapy experienced significant decreases in serum vitamin B12, hemoglobin, and hematocrit levels after six months.

This study suggests that cyclosporine may directly affect epithelial cell growth, potentially leading to broader use of its nonimmunosuppressive analogues in treating hyperproliferative epidermal diseases.

This study found that using layer-by-layer encapsulation techniques on dermal papilla cells can support their function and may help treat hair loss when used in conjunction with freshly isolated epidermal cells.

The study created a test that found hormonal and toxic effects in plant and fungal extracts using prostate cancer cells.

Hair growth phase in mice weakens certain immune responses.

This study found that cultured human foreskin cells and a human keratinocyte cell line continue to express specific cytochrome P450 isoenzymes, unlike keratinocytes derived from hair follicles.

This study presents a method for extracting and measuring cyclic AMP in small amounts of skin tissue, finding varying levels in the dermis, epidermis, and hair follicles.

This study found that Th17 lymphocytes may play a more crucial role than cytotoxic T cells in the development of alopecia areata due to their infiltration around the hair bulb/bulge, which exacerbates hair loss as histopathological grade worsens.

This study evaluated new aqueous gel formulations of minoxidil without irritants and found that the calcium alginate gel showed the best performance in terms of drug release and skin permeation.

This study found that both combined therapy with goserelin and oral contraceptives, and oral contraceptives alone, significantly reduced hair diameter in severe hirsutism without a significant difference between treatments.

This study observed that repeated perm treatments decrease disulfide bonds in hair due to their conversion largely into cysteic acid, affecting the waving efficiency depending on the reduction agent used.

This case report details the immunohistochemical study of cytokeratins in a trichofolliculoma, providing insights but no new clinical findings.

In this study, 17β-estradiol increased VEGF production in differentiated THP-1 cells, while dihydrotestosterone counteracted this effect by modulating adenylate cyclase activity.

This article reviews adverse skin reactions caused by chemotherapy and cytokine treatments, describing specific and nonspecific reactions, but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report describes the successful treatment of severe bullous erythema multiforme in a patient using cyclosporine, where prior high-dose corticosteroids had only partially worked.

This study found that high-dose cyproterone acetate was effective for treating hirsutism, but 33% of patients felt their condition worsened on low-dose maintenance therapy, despite no significant change in objective measures of hair growth.

In this study, Diane was reported to effectively treat acne, seborrhoea, androgenic alopecia, and mild hirsutism in hirsute women, with its effectiveness influenced by the severity and duration of the condition.

This study observed that local injection of minoxidil effectively prevented Ara-C-induced alopecia in newborn rats, while topical application was ineffective.

Mutations in β1 integrins cause embryonic death but have milder effects on skin.

This article reports no new clinical findings but discusses two rare dermatological conditions, trichostasis spinulosa and eruptive vellus hair cysts, and their simultaneous occurrence.

This study observed that enzyme activity influencing estradiol-to-estrone conversion in Wistar rat skin varied with the hair cycle in dorsal skin but was minimal in plantar skin.

This study found that transgenic mice expressing a mutant CYLD protein lacking deubiquitinase function showed signs of premature aging and spontaneous tumor development, likely due to over-activation of specific molecular pathways and chronic inflammation.

This study found that DHHC13 is crucial for hair anchoring and skin barrier function, with its deficiency in Zdhhc13(skc4) mice leading to cyclic alopecia and skin abnormalities due to cornifelin deficiencies.

In this study, all stereoisomers of cyoctol were synthesized and tested, revealing that contrary to initial patent claims, cyoctol does not function as an anti-androgen.

This study concluded that high-dose oral therapy with L-cystine, gelatin, and vitamin A significantly improved hair growth indicators in patients with diffuse hair loss, with no systemic side effects observed.

Topical cyclosporin A doesn't work for alopecia totalis because it doesn't penetrate the skin well.

This study found that hamster sebaceous glands have high affinity binding sites for dihydrotestosterone, with competition from other steroids indicating specific binding characteristics.

This case report discusses an instance of cystitis caused by the chemotherapy drug Cytoxan, with no new findings reported.

This study observed a potential association between the CC genotype of rs4646 and female pattern hair loss, but the authors advise caution due to lack of experiment-wide significance and recommend replication.
