This study found that repeated cycles of wetting and blow-drying hair fibers can cause cracks in the hair cuticles, particularly among individuals who frequently blow-dry their hair.

This report describes a case where a patient with acute generalized pustular psoriasis achieved remission using a combination of oral cyclosporin and PUVA therapy, maintaining remission 12 months after stopping treatment.

This study found that testosterone propionate increased hair mass in female hamsters' flank organs, while cyproterone acetate applied topically reduced androgen-stimulated hair in a dose-dependent manner.

In this study, Cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside was found to protect against DHT-induced dermal papilla cell senescence and mitochondrial dysfunction in androgenetic alopecia, restoring hair growth in mouse models.

This study found that minicircle-based gene therapy significantly lowered total homocysteine levels and improved liver CBS activity in a mouse model of CBS deficiency.

In this animal study, cedrol treatment reduced chemotherapy-induced alopecia in mice by preventing hair follicle damage, while minoxidil did not prevent alopecia under similar conditions.

This study found that oral cyclosporine was more effective and had fewer side effects than betamethasone minipulse therapy for treating alopecia areata.

This review discusses dietary manipulation strategies in a mouse model of CBS deficiency and reports no new results; the authors emphasize the importance of understanding gene-diet interactions.

This study found that corticosteroid pulse therapy may be more effective than oral cyclosporine with corticosteroid for patients with severe alopecia areata, especially for those with the plurifocal type or a short disease duration.

This study found that in patients with nonclassical 21-hydroxylase deficiency, genotypes do not reliably predict the severity of hyperandrogenic symptoms, suggesting other genetic factors may influence the phenotype.

This study found that CK15 is an unreliable marker for assessing bulge zone integrity in cicatricial alopecia follicles due to its altered expression in diseased conditions.

This study found that AHCC significantly reduced alopecia caused by Ara-C in neonatal rats and improved liver function affected by 6-MP and MTX in mice.

This study suggests that interleukin-1 α influences dermal papilla cell activity by modifying androgen receptor expression and increasing the secretion of several growth factors and cytokines.

This study found that both cyproterone acetate alone and combined with ethinyl oestradiol reduced androgen levels and slightly increased SHBG binding in women with hirsutism, but showed no difference in hair regrowth rate between the treatments.

In this study, oral cyproterone acetate reduced hair density and diameter in women with idiopathic hirsutism, but the effects were not permanent after stopping treatment, and plasma androgen levels remained unchanged.

This study found that regio-specific hydroxylation of cyclosporine A in Sebekia benihana is mediated by the cytochrome P450 hydroxylase CYP-sb21, suggesting potential biotechnological applications for hair growth promotion without immunosuppressive effects.

The researchers reported that the ethyl ester group in YH239-EE may enhance its ability to induce cell death, making the (+) enantiomer a potentially promising therapy for breast cancer reflected in MCF7 cell studies.

In this study, an immortalized MSC line from human adipose tissue showed potential for applications in regenerative medicine and inflammatory diseases through production of active factors, demonstrated in vitro.

This systematic review assessed cyclosporine's effectiveness with or without corticosteroids for treating alopecia areata, finding combined therapy more effective and with a lower recurrence rate than monotherapy, especially for severe cases, though results varied by alopecia type.

This study found that the cytokine-mediated signaling pathway is the primary pathway disrupted in skin after CO2 laser surgery.

This study found that Cyperus rotundus essential oil is as effective as the Alexandrite laser in reducing the growth of unwanted axillary hair, with notable effectiveness in decreasing white hair growth.

This study describes how manipulating the actin cytoskeleton, particularly through the gelsolin family proteins, may enhance regenerative healing in mammals, suggesting potential therapeutic pathways for improved wound repair.

This case study and literature review describe eruptive vellus hair cysts as uncommon, potentially inherited or acquired lesions, associated with other skin conditions, and challenging to treat despite being benign.

This study found that interleukin-1-alpha and oncostatin-M levels were positively associated with PCOS development, while interleukin-7, IL15RA, and CXCL11 were negatively associated, suggesting a connection between inflammatory factors and PCOS.

This study reported that structure-guided engineering of CYP154C2 mutants significantly improved the 2α-hydroxylation of androstenedione and testosterone, with enhanced conversion efficiency and substrate selectivity compared to the wild-type enzyme.

This review discusses the historical and potential medical uses of Cyperus rotundus rhizomes, but reports no new clinical results and emphasizes the need for further study on its pharmacognostic properties.

This study found that most chronic alopecia areata patients treated with azathioprine, methotrexate, or cyclosporine continued treatment for at least 12 months, often requiring concurrent low-dose prednisolone.

This study found that physician knowledge of thromboembolism risk associated with cyproterone acetate/ethinylestradiol was generally high, although it varied for complex or less common topics.

This study found that Ocimum gratissimum essential oil may enhance hair growth and promote follicular proliferation in rats experiencing cyclophosphamide-induced hair loss.

A kidney transplant patient on cyclosporin experienced unexpected severe hair loss, which improved with treatment adjustments.
