A substance called prostaglandin D2 is linked to stopping hair growth in men with common baldness.

This study found that a combination of oral compounds improved metabolic activity, cell viability, and proliferation in hair follicular keratinocytes, with L-cystine playing a key role in protection against oxidative stress.

This review examines complementary and alternative medicine for alopecia and finds limited support from robust clinical trials, highlighting the need for standardized studies to evaluate efficacy and safety.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had significantly lower serum 25(OH)D levels, which may be associated with increased disease severity.

This study validated a protocol for inducing surface ectoderm differentiation from human induced pluripotent stem cells and highlighted the role of TGFβ signaling pathways in this process.

This study found that 5-bromo-3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (BDB) promoted hair growth in rat vibrissa follicles by activating Wnt/β-catenin and autophagy pathways and inhibiting the TGF-β pathway in dermal papilla cells.

This study found that zebrafish and stickleback fish use similar genetic programs for tooth regeneration, despite differences in their dental structures.

This study found that benzodiazepine therapy in women with idiopathic hirsutism significantly increased sex hormone binding globulin and decreased dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate, but did not significantly affect hair growth.

This review examines the molecular mechanisms and current treatment options for androgenetic alopecia, highlighting potential future therapies but providing no new experimental findings.

In this review, researchers explored key mechanisms underlying androgenetic alopecia, revealing how hormonal, oxidative, inflammatory, and lipid dysregulation suppress hair growth pathways and suggesting new therapeutic targets such as DP2 antagonists and microbiome modulators.

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 observed that between 2000 and 2004, males underwent fewer aesthetic facial procedures than females, except for hair restoration and otoplasty, with a trend toward more nonsurgical requests over time.

In this study, dermatophytosis in cattle around Parbhani was found to have a prevalence of 17.2%, with Clove oil treatment showing the quickest recovery in 7 days.

This report describes two sisters with rickets and alopecia unresponsive to high doses of vitamin D2, where oral phosphorus supplements led to significant clinical improvement.

This study found that dutasteride may offer neuroprotection in early-stage Parkinson's disease by preventing loss of striatal dopamine and altering steroid levels in MPTP-lesioned mice.

This review discusses mechanisms of wound healing impairment in leptin-deficient murine models used for diabetic research, and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the need for further study.

This study reports that some human cell surface HLA-I molecules (including HLA-B27) can appear without their usual peptide component, potentially altering immune interactions, influencing arthritis development in specific mice models, and exhibiting upregulation in certain cancer cells.

In this study, AGA patients exhibited distinct lipidomic profiles and higher metabolic syndrome prevalence compared to controls, with certain lipids correlated to key AGA-related factors like DHT, PGD2, and TGF-β1.

This Ph.D. project aims to evaluate the self-assembling potential of hair keratin extracts and study the cellular response to both crude and purified keratins, highlighting their potential applications from biomedical to water remediation.

In this study, an endoscopic midface lifting technique showed notable improvement in midface ptosis and infraorbital hollowing, with lower morbidity and few complications after over 400 procedures.

Inhibiting PGD2 and using dermal papilla cells may improve skin and hair regeneration.

In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, researchers found that a multi-targeted cosmetic formulation containing TrinogeniX™ significantly increased hair density and thickness in individuals with androgenetic alopecia without adverse effects, suggesting it as a potential safe and effective treatment option.

In this study, researchers found that topical application of the diabetes medication Sitagliptin in mice accelerates hair follicle regeneration and reduces fibrosis, suggesting it could be repurposed to treat hair loss conditions like alopecia.

In this study, researchers presented cases of cellular neurothekeoma in three male family members with early-onset in infancy, suggesting a potential genetic component and inheritance pattern, which deviates from the typical presentation seen mostly in women between 20–30 years.

This study developed a protocol for callus induction and found that certain hormone concentrations enhance the production of flavonoids, phenols, and terpenes in Bituminaria bituminosa.

In this study, curcumin-loaded nanoparticles with a size of 400 nm showed optimal accumulation in human hair follicles after seven days, although mouse models differed significantly in penetration and retention, indicating limitations in their suitability for follicular drug delivery studies.

This study suggests that setipiprant's inhibitory effect on aldose reductase may contribute to its anti-inflammatory properties, adding a possible mechanism beyond its known action on the prostaglandin D2 receptor.

The researchers reported that among Mediterranean Sicilian women with PCOS, Phenotype B exhibited the most severe metabolic abnormalities, notably obesity and altered glucose metabolism, whereas Phenotype D showed no such issues.

This case report describes a 57-year-old woman's virilizing adrenal tumor effectively treated with the antiandrogen cyproterone acetate, which led to symptom reversal and tumor resolution.

The researchers reported that epitestosterone treatment reduced eicosanoid levels generated by cyclooxygenases and lipoxygenases in rabbit liver samples with carrageenan-induced inflammation.
