This study suggests that loss of DMBT1 and galectin-3 expression may contribute to the development of epithelial skin cancers, indicating potential tumor-suppressive roles in this context.

In this study, basal cell carcinoma developed in Ptch-deficient mice only after chemical treatment, not skin wounding, suggesting a second unknown event is necessary for tumor formation.

In this study, human nucleus pulposus cells treated with hyaluronic acid showed increased proliferation and reduced oxidative stress compared to those treated with EDTA-PBS, suggesting a potential role for hyaluronic acid in enhancing intervertebral disc therapy.

This review discusses perceptions and side effects of depot medroxyprogesterone acetate and emphasizes the importance of educating teens to enhance compliance; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that NKIRAS2 expression affects skin tumor suppression and HRAS-driven transformation in mice, indicating its role in carcinogenesis depends on expression level and cellular context.

This study found that using an LED array with an 863 nm wavelength delayed tumor development and reduced systemic inflammatory cytokines in DMBA/TPA-induced mouse skin tumors, suggesting potential but limited benefits of light therapy.

This case report describes the successful topical treatment of a horse with a Pythium insidiosum infection using amphotericin B and DMSO, leading to significant wound healing and hair regrowth.

This study observed that DMSO-modified liposomes enhanced the topical delivery of finasteride, improving hair follicle density and growth phase ratio in a rat model of testosterone-induced alopecia.

In this study, low concentrations of DMSO were found to decrease androgen receptor expression and inhibit the migration of prostate cancer cells, suggesting potential as an anticancer therapy.

In this study, a DMG-Na and caffeine-containing shampoo significantly reduced hair loss and increased hair density in men with male pattern hair loss over 6 months, compared to a placebo, without adverse effects.

Rheumatology clinics should always provide preconception counseling for women on DMARDs.

In this study, Typhonium flagelliforme leaf-ethanolic extract combined with natural interferon was observed to stabilize body weight, inhibit tumor growth, and reduce mitosis, angiogenesis, and certain protein expressions in carcinogen-induced tumors in female mice, suggesting potential antitumor effects.

In this study, oral administration of modified aloe gel significantly reduced liver enzymes AST and ALT and led to hair regrowth in carbon tetrachloride-treated albino mice after 33 days.

This review discusses valproic acid as a common antiseizure medication associated with alopecia and highlights the need for its inclusion in relevant medical guides, without presenting new clinical findings.

This review examines the impact of vitamin D signaling in extraskeletal tissues and notes that expected benefits from animal and cell studies have not been consistently replicated in human clinical trials.

This study discusses the potential association between low vitamin D levels and insulin resistance, suggesting that vitamin D deficiency may contribute to disorders like obesity and diabetes, but emphasizes the need for further research to confirm these links.

This study found that vitamin D receptor activation in primary keratinocytes can occur independently of the 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D₃ ligand, likely through interaction with retinoid X receptors.

This study found that treating paracoccidioidomycosis-infected mice with a nanoparticle formulation of itraconazole led to higher drug accumulation in lung, liver, and spleen tissues, improved treatment efficacy, and reduced side effects compared to traditional oral solutions.

This study found that vitamin D regulates cholesterol metabolism and may influence prostate cancer development through mechanisms affecting prostate cell growth and sex hormone metabolism.

This study found that the hairless gene product (Hr) suppresses VDR-mediated gene activation by directly interacting with the vitamin D receptor, potentially affecting hair follicle function.

This study observed that vitamin D receptor knockout mice exhibit impaired epidermal differentiation and progressive hair loss, suggesting the importance of the vitamin D receptor in normal skin and hair follicle development.

This study suggests that while VDR is crucial for maintaining hair follicles in mice, their degeneration may be linked to impaired cell migration during hair growth phases rather than stem cell loss.

This study found that vitamin D receptor expression is associated with proliferating keratinocytes, while retinoid X receptor α is linked to differentiating keratinocytes, suggesting differential targeting by vitamin D metabolites.

In this study, autophagy was commonly observed during keratinization in neonate rat hair follicles, suggesting lysosomal proteases and cytoplasmic enzymes may coordinate in hair follicle cell differentiation.

This study found that PDLLA filler treatment may help combat age-related hair thinning by reducing oxidative stress and enhancing hair follicle function in both cell and animal models.

This study observed that while low vitamin D levels are associated with increased risk of autoimmune thyroid diseases, evidence from clinical trials on vitamin D supplementation shows inconsistent effects on thyroid function and disease progression, underscoring the need for further research.

This review reports that vitamin D plays an important role in hair follicle development, with a negative correlation observed between serum vitamin D levels and female pattern hair loss, suggesting further research is needed before recommending vitamin D as a treatment.

This study found that methyl jasmonate can induce tanshinone biosynthesis in S. miltiorrhiza by affecting the expression of the SmMEC gene, as supported by RT-PCR and transcriptomic data.

This review evaluates the anti-aging properties of TSG from He shou wu, finding it may protect against age-related diseases through multiple mechanisms, though further research is needed for clinical application.

This systematic review found that hair loss was more frequently observed in acne patients on isotretinoin doses ≥0.5 mg/kg/d compared to those on lower doses, suggesting dose-dependent effects.
