This study found no significant difference in anagen rate improvement between the CYP-based dietary supplement and placebo in women over 60 with telogen effluvium, possibly due to variable patient inclusion related to hair growth seasonality.
research Topische Immuntherapie mit Diphenylcyclopropenon bei verschiedenen Typen der Alpecia areata: Assoziation zu klinischen Parametern und einem funktionellen Genpolymorphismus des Interleukin-6-Promotors
This study found that a significant portion of alopecia areata patients achieved at least partial hair regrowth with diphenylcyclopropenon therapy, which was more effective in certain subtypes and disease durations.
research Effect of Miracle Fruit (Synsepalum dulcificum) Seed Oil (MFSO®) on the Measurable Improvement of Hair Breakage in Women with Damaged Hair: A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Eight-month Trial.
This study found that Synsepalum dulcificum seed oil hair treatment significantly reduced hair breakage and improved hair health indices in women, outperforming both placebo and argan oil treatments.
research Effect of Growth Phase on Deposition of Selenium (Se) in Tissues of Rats Fed Elevated Dietary Levels of Se as Either L-Selenomethionine or Sodium Selenate
This study found that growth affects selenium deposition in hair, nails, and other tissues of adult and weanling rats, indicating dietary and physiological factors may influence selenium levels.
research Clinical and Dermoscopic Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of Oral baricitinib (JAK Inhibitor) in Treatment of Localized Vitiligo Either Alone or with Topical Tacrolimus
This study observed significant repigmentation in localized stable vitiligo lesions treated with oral baricitinib, with even more improvement when combined with topical tacrolimus, and reported no side effects.
research Das weiße Hautfettgewebe initiiert die IL-33-abhängige Expression von Interleukin 4/13 in myeloischen Zellen während einer Entzündung
In this study on mice, researchers observed that dermal white adipose tissue (dWAT) plays a key role in regulating skin inflammation and tissue repair; however, reduced expression of certain cytokines in obese mice may hinder these processes, indicating potential metabolic disruptions in dWAT during inflammation.
research Major improvement of very severe alopecia areata in patients treated with the combination of baricitinib and low doses of corticosteroids: an eight-case series
In this study, combining baricitinib and prednisone effectively achieved complete hair regrowth in seven out of eight women with very severe alopecia areata, contrasting with less effective results from each drug used alone.
research An Updated Etiology of Hair Loss and the New Cosmeceutical Paradigm in Therapy: Clearing ‘the Big Eight Strikes’
This review concluded that the efficacy of cosmeceutical hair serums for addressing hair loss lies in their use of bioactive peptides and plant compounds, like flavonoids and sterols, that target eight key contributing factors identified in hair loss conditions.
research Skin fragility in the wild-derived, inbred mouse strain Mus pahari/EiJ
This study found that the wild-derived mouse strain Mus pahari has fragile skin that separates at subdermal levels under moderate force, potentially due to altered extracellular matrix development.
research Skin Cancer: Mechanisms and Human Relevance
This article reviews various aspects of skin cancer, including animal models, molecular mechanisms, immunity roles, and potential chemoprevention strategies, but reports no new experimental results.
research The human skin as a hormone target and an endocrine gland
This review explores the complex endocrine functions of human skin and its role as a peripheral endocrine organ, but reports no new clinical results.
research Pure linoleate deficiency in the rat: influence on growth, accumulation of n-6 polyunsaturates, and [1-14C]linoleate oxidation
This study found that pure linoleate deficiency in rats caused significant reductions in the accumulation of n-6 polyunsaturates and mild symptoms like growth retardation, compared to classical essential fatty acid deficiency.
research Human Essential Fatty Acid Deficiency
In this case report, applying linoleic acid topically reversed essential fatty acid deficiency and related skin symptoms in a patient receiving long-term fat-free intravenous nutrition.
research Endocrine Therapy–Induced Alopecia in Patients With Breast Cancer
This study found that endocrine therapy for breast cancer is associated with a pattern of hair loss similar to androgenetic alopecia, negatively impacting quality of life despite mild severity.
research D’orenone blocks polarized tip growth of root hairs by interfering with the PIN2‐mediated auxin transport network in the root apex
This study found that D'orenone blocks root hair growth by increasing PIN2 protein abundance, leading to reduced auxin concentration, but external auxin can reverse these effects.
research Assessment of Quality of Life and Treatment Outcomes of Patients With Persistent Postchemotherapy Alopecia
This study found that persistent chemotherapy-induced alopecia is often more severe and diffuse than alopecia from endocrine therapy, with both conditions negatively impacting patients' emotional wellbeing, and moderate to significant improvement was observed with dermatologic therapy.
