This study found that prolonged use of finasteride in women led to altered levels of sex steroids, DNA damage, and increased menstrual bleeding, suggesting adverse health effects without clear benefits for androgenetic alopecia treatment.

This article reviews causes, differentiation, and treatment of thinning hair in women, with no new clinical results reported.

This case report from Qatar highlights the failure of traditional diagnostic approaches in a young woman with severe hair loss, emphasizing the potential benefits of DNA-guided nutrigenomics and the importance of compassionate communication in addressing psychosocial distress.

This study suggests that topical minoxidil could promote hair regrowth in individuals with alopecia areata by exerting a localized immunosuppressive effect, and that combining minoxidil with other treatments may enhance hair growth outcomes.

This study reported that during wheat polyploidization, decreased DNA methylation and specific hypomethylated promoters were associated with altered gene transcription, contributing to root hair elongation and improved nitrate uptake, highlighting the role of epigenetic regulation in enhancing crop traits.

This study suggests that Artemis, particularly phosphorylated at serine 516, may have roles in hair follicle growth by influencing differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycling.

This review discusses forensic DNA phenotyping, focusing on male pattern baldness and its prediction through SNP markers, but reports no new results.

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.

This study investigated the use of spironolactone in patients with estrogen-dependent cancers, aiming to determine if it is linked to increased cancer recurrence risk, but results are not reported.

This study found that ultraviolet radiation causes significant damage to human hair follicles, including increased cell apoptosis and oxidative DNA damage, but this damage may be mitigated by topical caffeine.

This study reports that an electrochemical biosensor using a gold and palladium-modified electrode effectively detects levodopa and uric acid in various samples, offering improved performance over previous electrodes.

This study found that hair follicle stem cells in mice have an unexpected ability to adaptively determine their differentiation pathways, maintaining tissue architecture despite external stimuli.

This study found that the S100A3 gene is exclusively expressed in hair follicle cells differentiating into hair shaft components in mice, suggesting its important role in hair formation.

This review discusses the potential of three-dimensional printed mesoporous scaffolds for drug delivery applications, particularly for bone cells and tissues, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found distinct gene expression patterns in the blood of alopecia areata patients, suggesting involvement of immune processes and new pathways like Wnt signaling and apoptosis in disease pathogenesis.

This article argues that lineage labeling with genetic markers is the gold standard for identifying epithelial stem cells, contrary to the view that in vitro methods alone are sufficient.

This review discusses the role of hair follicle bacterial colonization in immune responses and the pathogenesis of alopecia but reports no new clinical results.

In this study of Han Chinese women, the mitochondrial DNA N haplogroup was associated with a higher risk of late-onset systemic lupus erythematosus and its specific manifestations, such as skin impairment and neurological disturbances.

The researchers reported that certain physical characteristics of hair shafts, such as length and color, may influence mtDNA read counts and degradation state when analyzed by massively parallel sequencing.

In this study, male patients treated with 150 mCi of radioactive iodine showed no negative impact on fertility, but long-term studies with larger groups are needed to further assess hormonal effects and sperm health after this treatment.

This research explores developing liposomal formulations to enhance the delivery of difficult-to-absorb agents directly to hair follicles and sebaceous glands, with minoxidil and plasmid DNA as study molecules.

This review discusses Charnoly bodies as biomarkers of cell injury and potential therapeutic targets in neurodegenerative, cardiovascular, and cancer treatments but reports no new clinical results.

This review summarizes advancements in forensic DNA phenotyping for appearance, ancestry, and age prediction from crime scene samples, reporting no new research findings but highlighting areas needing further research and validation.

This review discusses emerging cancer treatment methods focusing on cellular mechanisms unique to cancer cells and concludes no new clinical results.

This study found that topically applied liposomal spherical nucleic acids targeting the IL-17 receptor could effectively reduce psoriasis severity in preclinical models.

This report discusses a 22-year-old patient with MELAS syndrome carrying the m.10158T>C mutation, and highlights the need for extensive genetic testing when initial hot-spot mutation tests are negative.

This study found that tetracycline can adhere to hair follicle structures and disrupt cell metabolism, potentially damaging healthy human cells as well as pathogens.

The study emphasizes that telomere shortening is identified as the sole cause of aging among the twelve hallmarks and suggests that increasing telomere and rDNA array length in adult stem cells might effectively reverse aging and extend lifespan.

This study identified novel mitochondrial DNA variations in PCOS patients from Pakistan, which may serve as genetic predisposition markers, highlighting especially the potential pathogenicity of frameshift mutations in the MT-ND2 gene.

This study found that in the Indian population, SLE patients with only skin manifestations often had a positive immunological profile, suggesting early identification of disease before systemic symptoms develop.
