This study found that extracts from heterotropic cultures of Scenedesmus deserticola JD052 enhanced hair-inductive properties in human dermal papilla cells more effectively than photoautotrophic extracts, likely through activation of AKT/β-catenin signaling, despite similar loliolide content.

In this study of Zhexi Angora rabbits, researchers found that the fine-wool group exhibited lower fiber diameters and a higher hair follicle density than the coarse-wool group, and they identified key candidate genes potentially regulating wool quality through RNA-seq and genome resequencing techniques.

This systematic review found that light and laser therapies, including excimer and erbium-glass lasers, generally increase hair density and diameter in various types of alopecia, with particularly notable effects in androgenic alopecia but limited efficacy in telogen effluvium.

The research observed that among Ecuadorian Andean women with polycystic ovary syndrome, classical phenotypes A and B were more prevalent and associated with higher risks of insulin resistance and metabolic disorders compared to phenotypes C and D.

In this study, certain haircare practices and age factors were found to be associated with the occurrence and severity of traction alopecia among women in Yaoundé.

This study reported that COVID-19 patients treated with nirmatrelvir/ritonavir had lower anti-spike IgG levels and different cytokine patterns compared to those not receiving antiviral treatment, suggesting early antiviral use may alter immune response by reducing viral load and antigen presentation.

This review discusses alternative androgen pathways, including the "backdoor" pathway and pathways to 11-oxygenated steroids, and reports no new clinical results; the authors aim to clarify these concepts for better patient treatment.

This paper discusses forensic DNA phenotyping, emphasizing its ability to infer visible traits from biological samples without reference samples, but notes ethical and legal concerns related to its use.

In this study, researchers formulated a polyherbal hair oil using ingredients like coconut and castor oils, and reported that it boosts hair growth, reduces hair fall and dandruff, and adds shine, with minimal adverse effects compared to market formulations.

This study identified melatonin as a potential treatment for rosacea and Alzheimer's disease, suggesting it may help by modulating inflammatory and vascular signaling pathways.

This study found that cognitive working memory training may help reduce symptoms of hair-pulling disorder and improve neurocognitive functions in affected individuals.

This review discusses clinical studies on low-level laser therapy for various types of hair loss and suggests it may be promising for those unresponsive to conventional treatments, but reports no new clinical results.

This review explores clinical studies on low-level laser therapy (LLLT) for alopecia and suggests it may benefit patients unresponsive to conventional treatments, but larger studies are needed to confirm efficacy.

This study found that manipulating Wnt signaling pathways in cutaneous wounds can induce skin structures resembling regeneration, suggesting a potential role for Wnt signals in restoring skin architecture during wound healing.

This study suggests that the vitamin D receptor and hairless gene may directly regulate each other via a transcriptional mechanism, potentially explaining phenotypic similarities between atrichia and VDRRIIa rickets.

Minoxidil helps hair regrowth in alopecia areata safely.

Minoxidil can help grow hair and make hair follicles bigger, but it can also cause side effects.

Minoxidil doesn't affect perifollicular lymphoid infiltration in alopecia areata patients.

This study found that androgenic alopecia is the strongest predictor of coronary artery disease in young men from Western India, followed by premature graying and obesity.

This perspective highlights evidence suggesting inflammation plays a significant role in male and female pattern hair loss, indicating that targeting inflammatory pathways may improve future therapeutic options.

This perspective highlights the role of inflammation in male and female pattern hair loss and its implications for developing future therapeutic options.

This study observed a high prevalence of PCOS among young female-pattern hair loss patients and suggested that AMH levels might be more indicative of FPHL than traditional androgens.

This exploratory pilot study found that topical sildenafil and minoxidil both significantly increased hair counts in male patients with androgenic alopecia, with varying effects at different scalp regions.

This review highlights bicalutamide as a promising oral therapy for female pattern hair loss, noting its safety, tolerability, and effectiveness in women with hyperandrogenic symptoms like acne and hirsutism, though further trials are needed to confirm its ideal dose and efficacy.

The authors provide an overview of using topical minoxidil to manage female pattern hair loss in Indian clinical practice, emphasizing its significance as the main treatment method.

This study found that 448-kHz Capacitive-Resistive Electrothermal Therapy led to a significant increase in hair density in women with Female Pattern Hair Loss, likely due to stimulated proliferation of dermal papilla cells.

This study evaluated donor area scars in hair restoration using a new assessment scale and found that most patients had good quality scars, with average scores of 15 or less out of 40.

A 73-year-old woman's unusual hair loss and growth led to the discovery of a rare condition causing too much testosterone, which improved after her ovaries were removed.

This study demonstrated a method for large-scale preparation of self-sorted hair follicle germs in vitro, which successfully generated hair follicles when transplanted into the skin of nude mice.

This study developed and tested nanostructured lipid carriers for topical dutasteride delivery, finding them stable, low in cytotoxicity and non-irritating, with no drug permeation through pig ear skin over 48 hours.
