This study concluded that 16β-methyl-17α-benzoyloxypregnen-4-en-3,20-dione may be a promising treatment for androgen-dependent diseases and epilepsy due to its antioxidant effects and impact on GABAergic and serotonergic metabolism in rats.

This study presented a new wearable textile-based device with near-infrared OLEDs that significantly reduced cell aging markers and improved cell migration in vitro, suggesting it as a promising, non-invasive phototherapy option for hair follicle treatment and hair-loss management.

This study found that Carbon Quantum Dots effectively detected and quantified Co²⁺ ions and methylcobalamin in tap water with high sensitivity and recovery rates between 95% and 105%.

This study found that low molecular weight collagen peptide from fish may promote hair growth in both human cells and mice by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

In this animal study, hibiscus leaf simplicia ointment was found to protect red blood cell levels and promote better hair growth in UV-exposed rats, though it did not maintain normal skin histology; the ointment showed no significant acute dermal toxicity.

This research highlights that engineered mice lacking the vitamin D receptor show multiple health issues similar to human vitamin D deficiency, underscoring the widespread impacts of the vitamin D endocrine system.

This study identified ectodin as a novel BMP inhibitor that modulates BMP signaling in ectodermal development by interacting with SHH and FGF pathways.

This study developed a rapid method to extract proteins from human hair, revealing phosphorylation on serine and threonine residues in alpha-keratins and matrix proteins.

The authors concluded that the dermal response to epidermal Wnt/β-catenin signaling depends on distinct fibroblast lineages, with each responding to different paracrine signals such as Hedgehog and TGF-β.

This study observed that 62% of premenopausal women with female pattern hair loss reported improvement when treated with oral finasteride and an oral contraceptive containing drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol.

In this study, 19 patients treated with finasteride for androgenetic alopecia developed moderate to severe depression, which resolved after stopping the medication, suggesting an association between finasteride and mood disturbances.

This study describes a simplified method for isolating and cultivating human hair follicle papillae that can be easily executed by new lab personnel.

This study found that low level laser therapy with a HairMax LaserComb improved hair counts and tensile strength in patients with androgenetic alopecia, particularly in males and vertex areas.

This study found that acute finasteride treatment decreased ethanol intake in male C57BL/6J mice, whereas chronic treatment showed diminished effects, implying compensatory changes in neurosteroid modulation.

This study found that phosphatidic acid promotes hair growth by stimulating cell proliferation and protecting against apoptosis in murine hair epithelial cells, unlike lysophosphatidic acid, which showed limited effects.

This review discusses the use of 5α-reductase inhibitors, particularly finasteride, for treating conditions like benign prostatic hyperplasia, male baldness, and hirsutism, and reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews technical aspects of using autologous fat transfer for facial rejuvenation and examines existing evidence for stem cell and platelet-rich plasma therapies in aesthetic practice, reporting no new results.

This study found that the PLC2 gene plays a critical role in auxin-mediated root development in Arabidopsis, influencing root growth and PIN2 distribution.

This study found that melatonin's effect on HaCaT keratinocyte proliferation varied with concentration and incubation time, with no cytotoxic effects observed at suitable concentrations for skin treatment.

This study found that using valproic acid during radiotherapy for glioma was associated with delayed hair loss and improved survival outcomes.

This study found that a topical cream containing PTH (7–34) significantly stimulated hair growth in hairless mice.

This study found that inhibiting the enzyme 5α-reductase with finasteride counteracted stress-induced prepulse inhibition deficits in socially isolated rats by altering neuroactive steroid concentrations in the brain.

This study reports that five new progesterone derivatives demonstrated inhibitory activity against the 5α-reductase enzyme and binding affinity for the androgen receptor in an in vitro hamster model.

This review discusses environmental factors like UV radiation and smoking that affect hair health and highlights the potential role of nutrition, but it reports no new results.

This study found that several new pregnane derivatives, especially steroids 16 and 19, demonstrated higher antiandrogenic activity on male hamster models than the commonly used finasteride.

This study reports on the biochemical characteristics of S100A3 protein in human hair cuticle, notably finding its N-terminal methionine is acetylated and has a slightly lower isoelectric point compared to the recombinant version.

This case study reports that adding adalimumab to a 12-year-old VKH patient's treatment allowed for ocular inflammation remission, vision improvement, and corticosteroid tapering, suggesting escalation of immunosuppression may be critical in pediatric VKH cases.

This study found that Pep-1-mediated mitochondrial transplantation was as effective as PRP therapy in restoring hair loss related to aging in mice, with distinct improvements in hair and skin-related measures.

This abstract explains that androgenetic alopecia, a common hair loss disorder influenced by genetics and hormones like dihydrotestosterone, has FDA-approved treatments including minoxidil, finasteride, and photolaser therapy, but its genetic basis and susceptibility to environmental factors remain complex.

This article discusses the potential for topical caffeine as a natural alternative for treating androgenetic alopecia due to its ability to penetrate skin, but it reports no new clinical findings.
