Researchers created a fully functional, bioengineered skin system with hair from stem cells that successfully integrated when transplanted into mice.

This review discusses the development of electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds for promoting angiogenesis in tissue engineering but notes that their clinical application beyond bone and skin repair is still limited.

This study located a potential genetic link for androgenetic alopecia on chromosome 3q26, marking an early step in identifying new susceptibility genes for male pattern baldness.

In this study, researchers developed a wearable red and blue LED patch and a sprayable fibrin gel to treat infected wounds at home, demonstrating effective infection control and enhanced wound healing in diabetic mice and minipigs.

This study found that deleting the CD98hc protein in mouse skin impairs wound healing and homeostasis, resembling aging effects, due to disrupted integrin signaling pathways.

In this study, researchers developed a new self-administered finasteride delivery system using powder-carrying microneedles that improved hair growth efficacy and addressed safety concerns compared to topical finasteride gel by allowing sustained intradermal release of the drug for three days with a single application.

This study found that human scalp hair follicles can internally operate a Cori cycle, synthesize glycogen in the presence of lactate, and modulate growth through glycogen phosphorylase activity.

This study analyzes the fine structure and protein distribution in monotreme hairs, finding similarities with other mammals and detailing unique immunocytochemical features in their inner root sheaths.

In this study, finasteride was found to inhibit the dopaminergic system and reduce open-field behaviors in adolescent male rats by decreasing dopamine levels and related proteins.

This study found that long non-coding RNAs are differentially expressed in androgenetic alopecia, suggesting potential roles in its development and novel targets for prevention and treatment.

This study demonstrates that Tp63-expressing epithelial stem cells from non-skin tissues can respond to skin morphogenetic signals and contribute to the formation of hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and epidermis.

In this study, researchers found that dermoscopy does not provide distinguishing features for diagnosing scalp contact dermatitis from topical minoxidil compared to other causes of severe scalp itching.

Spironolactone in anti-acne cream can cause allergic skin reactions in some people.

Using too much minoxidil foam can cause a rare movement disorder with facial twitching, but symptoms go away when the correct dose is used.

This study found that camera trap images revealed mange-like skin lesions in snow leopards and other species in Kyrgyz reserves, with detection rates varying widely and raising concerns about disease spread.

This study established a murine model for radiation-induced skin reactions, replicating clinical and histological features to aid future mechanistic and therapeutic research.

In this study, researchers introduced a visible-light-mediated intramolecular cycloaddition method that selectively forms 6-azabicyclo[3.1.1]heptanes, suggesting these structures could offer promising new scaffolds for drug discovery and medicinal chemistry.

This study explores potential strategies for targeted drug delivery specifically to pancreatic beta-cells in type 2 diabetes treatment, highlighting methods for inducing drug expression in beta-cells, suitable drug carriers, active targeting peptides, and optimal administration routes.

The study observed that consuming Pflorida soup, made from UV-exposed oyster mushrooms, maintained significant vitamin D levels comparable to recommended daily intake, despite storage and cooking reducing the vitamin content.

This study found that redhaired individuals consistently had higher calcidiol levels compared to non-redhaired subjects, suggesting a physiological adaptation for vitamin D synthesis in low UV-B conditions.

The document concluded that stem cells are crucial for skin repair, regeneration, and may help in developing advanced skin substitutes.

This study found that zinc levels in hospitalized patients with significant weight loss did not correlate with taste perception or vitamin A status, even in those with reduced taste acuity.

This review discusses the potential benefits of Vitex negundo for managing polycystic ovarian disease, highlighting its promising effects in animal models, but notes that more rigorous human trials are needed to confirm these findings.

This study found that 12-week oral supplementation of Ageratum conyzoides extract significantly reduced hairline recession and affected prostaglandin levels in adults with hair loss, though hair density increases were not statistically significant, and no improvements were found in other hair loss measures compared to placebo.

This study concluded that combining systemic cyclosporine A with low-dose corticosteroids effectively treats severe alopecia areata while maintaining safe cyclosporine A levels in the blood.

This study found that cyclosporine A treatment at 5 mg/kg/day may reduce inflammation and promote gland regeneration in dogs with sebaceous adenitis, though symptoms returned when treatment stopped.

This study found that low-level laser therapy was the most effective non-surgical treatment for androgenetic alopecia, although the overall quality of evidence supporting various therapies was generally low.

The guideline recommends mental health involvement in diagnosing gender identity disorder and outlines hormone and surgical treatment protocols, emphasizing safety, informed consent, and long-term monitoring.

This study suggests that increased use of anticancer drugs from 2004 to 2008 has led to higher environmental release, necessitating expanded monitoring and research on their ecotoxicological impacts.

In this study, researchers found that androgenetic alopecia significantly harms quality of life, particularly in younger patients, those with more severe or long-term alopecia, and those who have sought non-medical hair care.
