UV light might cause excessive hair growth by increasing PGE2 in the skin.

This animal study observed that while topical MBEH and intraperitoneal phenol induced hair graying in eumelanic mice, they had little effect on pheomelanic mice, and amcinonide reduced certain epidermal melanocytes in both.

This article discusses the clinical spectrum and pathobiology of radiotherapy-induced alopecia and reports no new research findings, highlighting potential pathways for future targeted RIA management.

This study found that omeprazole can cause acquired generalized hypertrichosis by significantly increasing duodenal prostaglandin E2 synthesis, which is involved in hair growth regulation.

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 reports that zinc oxide or silver nanoparticles capped with vitamin A or E, incorporated into wheat gluten films, showed significant potential in promoting burn wound healing in mice by facilitating wound contraction, re-epithelialization, and collagen deposition, while also exhibiting antioxidant and antibacterial properties.

This study found that Centipeda minima and brevilin A significantly reduced oxidative stress and inflammation in human dermal fibroblasts, suggesting their potential to protect against skin aging and inflammation.

In this study, Artemisia sieversiana extract was found to safely promote hair follicle dermal papilla cell growth and inhibit hair loss through anti-androgen, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects at a cellular level.

This study found that platycodon ethanol extract showed potential as a natural ingredient for hair loss prevention by increasing radical scavenging ability, inhibiting inflammation, and affecting DHT generation in laboratory experiments.

This review suggests that imbalance in prostaglandin levels may contribute to androgenetic alopecia, highlighting prostaglandins as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for the condition.

This study found that topical rebamipide, originally a gastric ulcer medication, can activate hair follicle stem cells and promote hair regeneration by modulating dermal adipocyte metabolism, with potential targeting of the prostaglandin E receptor EP4.

This review by St. Denis et al. highlights that prostaglandin E2 is overexpressed in several skin cancers and suggests targeting its pathway could offer potential treatments for these malignancies.

This study suggests that combining finasteride with traditional herbal formulas Yongdamsagan-tang or Paljung-san may not interfere with drug metabolism while potentially enhancing anti-inflammatory effects for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study found that an ethanolic extract from the microalga Tetrathelmis tetrathele exhibited anti-inflammatory effects, promoted the proliferation of certain skin and hair cells, and inhibited 5α-reductase activity, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic agent for preventing alopecia and enhancing scalp health.

This study found that chronic UVR exposure in mice and humans leads to a permanent loss of papillary fibroblasts in the upper dermis, which is associated with changes in the extracellular matrix.

In male mice and rats, this study found that 17α-estradiol improves metabolic health by acting through estrogen receptor α, suggesting a potential target for treating chronic diseases in male mammals.

This study found that human placenta extract may enhance hair growth by increasing PG-E2 and PG-F2a production while decreasing PG-D2 levels in cultured hair follicle keratinocytes.

HPV infection is linked to better survival in advanced anal cancer, higher radiation doses improve survival, especially in HPV-negative patients, and prostaglandin E₂ pretreatment can protect mouse hair follicles from radiation damage.

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.

This study found that among HIV-infected women, central lipohypertrophy was associated with shorter eyelashes but not changes in scalp hair texture or inflammation.

Prostaglandin helps regenerate hair follicles after radiation damage.

In this study, catgut embedding combined with moxibustion and bloodletting was reported to be more effective than finasteride for androgenetic alopecia, reducing hormonal imbalances and improving patient quality of life.

This study isolated new geranylated coumarins from Mammea siamensis flowers and found that several of these compounds inhibit testosterone 5α-reductase.

Certain micronutrients may improve hair and nail health, but more research is needed to confirm their benefits.

In this study, NGF and minoxidil increased the growth of human hair follicles while 17 beta-E2 inhibited it; NGF also neutralized 17 beta-E2's inhibitory effect.

This study found that higher concentrations of estradiol inhibited the growth of cashmere goat hair follicles, with associated morphological changes observed.

In this study, estradiol at higher concentrations inhibited the growth of cashmere goat hair follicles, suggesting a dose-dependent effect on follicle morphology and growth.

This study found that Euph E and Euri A showed strong anti-inflammatory activity and modulated cytokine and immune functions in macrophages, related to specific signaling pathways.

In this study, male rats with spinal cord injury that received either E2 or DHT supplementation both showed restored expression of respiratory neuroplasticity following acute intermittent hypoxia, with E2 also enhancing overall breathing recovery.

This article discusses the use of tissue expansion combined with older surgical techniques to repair large scalp defects and reports no new clinical results.
