This study found that Avicennia marina extract and its active compound avicequinone C inhibit enzymes and receptors related to androgenic alopecia, potentially supporting hair growth in cultured dermal papilla cells.

Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.

In this study, researchers found that crude extracts from Avicennia marina and its component avicequinone C inhibit mechanisms contributing to androgenic alopecia in vitro, including 5α-reductase activity and DHT-AR interactions, potentially promoting hair growth and delaying the catagen phase in human dermal papilla cells.

This study found that a decrease in estradiol levels in women is associated with increased hair shedding due to weakened anchoring of telogen hairs.

This study found that Cutl1 mutant mice experienced retarded lung differentiation and abnormal hair follicle morphogenesis, indicating the vital role of CDP in lung development and hair follicle cell-lineage specification.

This study found that blue light at a wavelength of 453 nm promoted hair growth ex vivo, potentially through interacting with OPN3 receptors in human hair follicles.

This study highlights that the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2)-Akt signaling axis is essential for hair follicle stem cells to return to their niche and regenerate effectively by regulating metabolic pathways.

This study found that combining minoxidil and retinol additively promoted hair growth in vitro, enhancing Erk- and Akt-dependent pathways and preventing apoptosis in dermal papilla cells and keratinocytes.

In this study, CD4+ non-haematopoietic, skin-resident stem cell-like populations were identified in both murine and human epidermis, suggesting they may serve as potential basal cell carcinoma precursors.

In this study, the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome among Han Chinese women aged 19-45 was found to be 5.6%, and PCOS was associated with increased metabolic risks, particularly in obese individuals.

This review discusses the molecular mechanisms of androgens and androgen receptors in skin disorders, particularly androgenetic alopecia, and reports no new clinical results; it highlights potential areas for future treatment development.

This article reviews the potential impact of melatonin on hair growth, noting its benefits observed in animals, but reports no clinical results in humans to date.

This study suggests that decreased SHBG levels and increased FAI, free testosterone, and DHEAS concentrations are effective in diagnosing PCOS in epidemiological studies of women of reproductive age.

This review discusses the role of the skin microbiome in the pathogenesis of various skin disorders, such as atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, and reports no new clinical findings; it emphasizes potential therapeutic implications.

This study reported that MRI-based ovarian morphology shows significant overlap between PCOS cases and controls, highlighting the need to consider clinical and biochemical data alongside imaging findings for PCOS diagnosis.

This article reviews skin disorders in Parkinson's disease, highlighting the potential of skin studies and stem cell research to advance understanding and treatment of the neurodegenerative disorder, without presenting new results.

This study suggests that androstendione and DHEA are useful indicators for diagnosing hyperandrogenemia in hirsute women, while DHEAS was not found to be helpful.

This study found that trichoscopy is essential for evaluating the severity of alopecia areata and predicting treatment responses, contributing to more personalized patient management.

In this study, researchers highlighted the high global prevalence of immune-related skin diseases like dermatitis and psoriasis, noting that females are disproportionately affected, emphasizing the need for tailored public health strategies based on sex and region.

This chapter reviews the causes and underlying steroid pathways of hirsutism and virilization in women, detailing relevant conditions and laboratory assays without reporting new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of ferritin in iron homeostasis and its potential utility in diagnosing iron deficiency as a cause of hair loss, while noting that ferritin's impact on skin and hair disorders is not fully understood.

This study conducted at a Moroccan tertiary dermatology center describes the characteristics of pediatric lichen, highlighting that dermoscopy can improve diagnostic accuracy by identifying distinct patterns across clinical variants, with lichen sclerosus being the most frequent subtype among the children studied.

This narrative review provides an overview of the persistent dermatological side effects experienced by cancer survivors due to treatments, highlighting their impact on quality of life and the need for structured dermatological care during survivorship.

This review highlights that obsessive-compulsive disorder and body-focused repetitive behaviors are increasingly encountered in dermatology, often going undetected, and emphasizes the role of dermatologists in early identification and interdisciplinary treatment to address both physical and psychological aspects for improved outcomes.

In this study, the authors emphasize that IFK, though rare in young patients, should be considered when diagnosing scalp lesions in all age groups, highlighting the importance of recognizing its dermoscopic and histopathologic features to avoid misdiagnosis and ensure proper management.

This review reports that topical minoxidil remains the primary treatment for androgenetic alopecia, while oral and sublingual forms offer alternative options, each with varying efficacy and side effects.

In this systematic review, researchers found that nanotopical systems like nanoparticles and liposomes significantly improved hair density, thickness, and follicular regeneration markers in alopecia treatment, sometimes surpassing traditional therapies like topical minoxidil, though methodological limitations remain such as insufficient long-term clinical trials.

In this study, trichoscopy was found to be a valuable non-invasive tool for diagnosing scalp lesions, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and reducing the need for scalp biopsies by identifying specific trichoscopic features associated with conditions like psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, and alopecia areata.

This review discusses the potential of therapeutic antibodies as an alternative treatment for androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the initial development stages and the need for further validation and optimization of targets like the prolactin receptor and Interleukin-6 receptor.

This review suggests that injectable platelet-rich fibrin therapy shows promise for improving hair density in androgenetic alopecia and enhancing facial skin texture and elasticity, but larger studies are needed to confirm its effectiveness.
