This study found that St. John's wort treatment for two weeks induced finasteride metabolism and reduced its plasma exposure in healthy men.

This study developed a 3D engineered hair follicle model that mimics the native hair bulb and may aid in drug screening for hair growth therapies.

In this study, researchers found that dissolving microneedles made with hyaluronic acid enhanced the effectiveness of minoxidil in reducing hair loss and promoting hair growth in alopecia-affected mice more effectively than topical minoxidil alone, while using only 10% of the drug amount.

In this study, desmopressin-loaded elastic liposomes (ODEL1) showed improved permeation and drug deposition across rat skin by altering the skin's cohesive energies and causing reversible changes on its surface.

In this study, two methotrexate-loaded liquid crystal formulations for topical application showed immunomodulatory effects and induced skin changes in mice with imiquimod-induced psoriasis.

This study found that dutasteride may help prevent enteric neuronal damage in an animal model of Parkinson's disease, highlighting its potential for drug repurposing to address neuroinflammation.

This study found that a compound isolated from Aloe barbadensis Miller showed strong effects on hair follicle regeneration and hair growth in warfarin-induced alopecia in rats, suggesting potential as a minoxidil alternative.

In this study conducted on mouse fetuses, valproic acid was found to reduce Sonic Hedgehog expression in the skin and hair follicles, but the inclusion of vitamin E helped mitigate this effect, supporting its potential role in managing valproic acid-induced changes.

In this study, MitoQ was found to enhance hair growth and reverse DHT-induced hair loss in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia by mediating the WNT/β-catenin pathway and increasing CYP19A1 expression, suggesting potential as a therapeutic intervention.

In this study, the ethyl acetate extract of Semecarpus anacardium Linn leaves was reported to induce cytotoxicity in cancer cells, cause cell cycle arrest, and suppress tumor growth in mice.

This research suggests that plucked hair follicles may serve as a reliable surrogate tissue for tumor biopsies in drug development, based on a mouse model linking hair and tumor pharmacodynamic responses.

Finasteride can cause gum swelling and bleeding, but stopping the drug helps recovery.

This article outlines manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus, noting rapid joint symptom improvement with corticosteroids and antimalarial drug responsiveness for skin symptoms, and links anti-Ro with photosensitive rash and subacute lupus.

This case report describes a hemodialysis patient whose hair loss reversed after switching from tinzaparin to enoxaparin, suggesting tinzaparin-induced alopecia.

This review summarizes existing and new cases of generalized pustular psoriasis and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis associated with COVID-19, noting that over half lacked a known drug trigger.

This study presents a case of a 24-year-old man who developed mild transaminitis and rhabdomyolysis within 24 hours of starting valproic acid for seizures, with symptom resolution following drug cessation.

This case report describes a 42-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis who developed extensive impetiginized pityriasis amiantacea potentially linked to her anti-TNF-α therapy with golimumab. Discontinuing the drug and other treatments led to significant clinical improvement within a month.

This case report documented a 32-year-old man's acute pancreatitis following an overdose of finasteride, highlighting the potential for rare but severe side effects from the drug in overdose situations, and suggesting a need for further research into its safety.

This study used non-invasive imaging techniques to assess hair follicle characteristics in AGA mice, revealing delayed hair shaft alternation and growth stages, as well as testosterone-induced follicle miniaturization, offering potential methods for evaluating AGA on human scalps in vivo.

In this study, the authors propose that drugs like trazodone and antipsychotics such as chlorpromazine, which can induce priapism, may help restore libido synaptic circuits, offering potential treatment for post-finasteride syndrome and post-SSRI sexual dysfunction.

In this study, ultrastructural examination of hair in children treated with valproic acid showed a normal hair surface and cuticular pattern, despite reported hair changes with the drug.

This case study reported that a 74-year-old woman with metastatic rectal cancer experienced temporary trichomegaly, or eyelash lengthening, associated with cetuximab treatment, which resolved after discontinuation of the drug.

This study identified thousands of variant-metabolite associations in the human plasma metabolome, offering insights into the genetic bases of metabolism and potential adverse drug effects.

This study found that transdermal delivery of finasteride using biomimetic Platycladi cacumen-derived nanovesicles enhanced hair regrowth in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia, outperforming minoxidil by improving skin permeation, reducing oxidative stress, and boosting local drug retention.

This source reports that for treating keloids and hypertrophic scars, combination pharmacotherapy targeting multiple sites is generally more effective than using a single drug, though outcomes of individual therapies vary and the development of satisfying treatments is ongoing.

Melatonin may help with nerve pain, a hepatitis C drug is effective but has side effects, a treatment for mouth sores works but can cause blood issues, ear reconstruction with an implant is safe, HIV transmission from mother to child in Taiwan is now 0% with treatment, certain blood problems are more common in people with a tongue condition, a gene and being overweight are linked to hair loss in some women, a new technique could reduce radiation for lung nodule patients, a hepatitis treatment may lower cancer recurrence after a procedure, and adding extra screening improves tuberculosis detection in patients with lung infections.

This study introduced a bioengineered model that simulates acne's microenvironment in mice, enabling the exploration of host and P. acnes interactions and presenting a novel platform for anti-acne drug and vaccine screening.

This study on adult male rats found that finasteride treatment led to molecular changes linked to erectile dysfunction, while withdrawal from the drug did not alter these parameters.

Mitoxantrone is effective for treating acute leukemia, especially in older patients, with a lower risk of heart damage.

This report documents a case of dermatological toxicity associated with chronic minoxidil therapy, highlighting the emergence of a severe rash after three years of use, which recurred upon inadvertent rechallenge.
