This study found that radiofrequency radiation from mobile phone use may increase DNA damage in hair follicle cells of the ear canal, with greater exposure duration linked to higher damage levels.

Sfrp2 increases during hair follicle catagen phase and slows keratinocyte growth.

This article introduces the term "anisotrichosis" to describe the significant variation in hair shaft diameters observed in pattern alopecia, drawing a parallel to anisocytosis seen in blood smears, but reports no new research findings.

This article addresses the complexity of treating acne in female-to-male transgender adolescents undergoing testosterone therapy, highlighting concerns about co-administered treatments and their potential risks.

This study found that all-trans and 9-cis retinoic acids increase steroid sulfatase activity in HL60 cells through mechanisms involving RARα/RXR heterodimers and multiple signaling pathways.

In this study, micro-autologous fat transplantation (MAFT) for frontal augmentation using the MAFT-GUN showed high patient satisfaction and no complications among 178 patients, suggesting it may be a reliable method for forehead contouring.

This study outlines the Human Gene Correlation Analysis tool, which classifies human genes by coexpression levels and identifies overrepresented annotation terms in correlated gene groups, with no new clinical results reported.

This review found no evidence that DHEA improves quality of life or decreases menopausal symptoms in peri- and postmenopausal women, but it may slightly enhance sexual function compared to placebo.

This study found that DHT treatment led to reduced cell growth, increased cell death, cell cycle arrest, ROS production, and senescence in normal human dermal papilla cells, potentially mediated by altered miRNA expression.

This review discusses the role of hair dyes in cosmetic dermatology, their effects on hair and scalp health, and the importance of dermatologists understanding potential side effects; it reports no new findings.

This review summarizes a meta-analysis suggesting that finasteride is most effective for improving symptoms and urinary flow in men with large prostates experiencing benign prostatic hyperplasia.

In this clinical experience, treating frontal fibrosing alopecia with oral finasteride, hydroxychloroquine, tacrolimus, and excimer laser was associated with optimal results in patients with active inflammation.

This study reports that in MRL mice, loss of p53 does not impair ear regeneration, suggesting p21's potential role in this process may involve the Tgfb/Smad pathway.

This study found that both everyday physical and environmental stresses, as well as chemical treatments, contributed to hair damage, with cuticle layers being more noticeably affected.

This study provided the first published case reports of alopecia associated with the use of quetiapine.

This study found that mechlorethamine restored hair growth in mice with alopecia-areata-like disease by eliminating infiltrated lymphocytes and inhibiting certain pro-inflammatory cytokines in treated skin areas.

This study found significant differences in bcl-2 expression between areas of the scalp affected and unaffected by androgenetic alopecia, suggesting a uniform follicle population or synchronized follicular cycling in affected areas.

Minoxidil can cause scalp comedones and acne.

This study developed a triple drug delivery system using nanoparticles loaded with 5-fluorouracil, curcumin, and piperine to target breast tumors, demonstrating notable in vitro cytotoxicity and anti-metastatic potential in 3D tumor spheroids which suggests its promise for further preclinical evaluation.

This study suggests that vitamin D-upregulated protein 1 (VDUP1) might play a unique role in regulating the differentiation of epidermal cells.

This study found that several new pregnane derivatives, especially steroids 16 and 19, demonstrated higher antiandrogenic activity on male hamster models than the commonly used finasteride.

This report describes two cases of toe tourniquet syndrome in infants, highlighting the importance for pediatric orthopedic practitioners to diagnose and manage it promptly, suggesting a specific incision method to release hair strangulation if removal is challenging.

This study found that linoleic acid from Malva verticillata seed extracts may promote hair follicle cell growth and counteract hair loss signaling in a lab setting.

This article reviews the complex challenges of managing scalp and cranial deformities post-trauma or surgery, advocating for better multidisciplinary approaches to enhance outcomes, but reports no new results.

This study found that compounds 21–23 and 25 exhibited strong 5α-reductase II inhibition in vitro and significantly reduced rat prostate weight, performing comparably to finasteride.

This study identified N-acyl arylsulfonamides, particularly N-(Boc-piperidine-4-carbonyl)-benzenesulfonamides, as steroid sulfatase inhibitors with improved cellular potency compared to previous compounds.

In this study, sildenafil was found to enhance human dermal papilla cell proliferation and promote hair growth in mice, suggesting potential use in alopecia treatment.

This study analyzed patch test results to identify allergens causing scalp contact dermatitis, finding nickel, cobalt, and balsam of Peru among the most common in the patient population.

This study suggests that epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) from green tea may counteract DHT-induced hair follicle damage by modifying the miRNA expression profile in human dermal papilla cells.

This study observed that pigmented casts are present in various alopecia types but are not specific to any single diagnosis, with distinct morphological features noted in trichotillomania.
