This study found that, despite the unchanged total level of 18-MEA, deletion of the Sox21 gene disrupts its attachment to the hair cuticle, increases cholesterol sulphate levels, and differentially affects ceramide composition.

This study found that storing hair micrografts in DMEM with apoptotic cell death inhibitors improved in vitro hair shaft elongation and reduced apoptosis, potentially enhancing micrograft transplantation outcomes.

This abstract outlines the potential benefits of fish oil, which contains omega-3 fatty acids, highlighting its use in improving skin health, promoting hair growth, and offering therapeutic effects, making it a popular ingredient in cosmetics and therapies.

This study suggests that microvascular damage and platelet deregulation may persist in ulcerative colitis patients even during remission, remaining as disease-associated molecular signatures.

This meeting in Heidelberg highlighted diverse contributions on stem cell research, including pre-clinical and clinical applications, but reported no new experimental results.

This study found that ulcerative colitis is associated with diverse molecular changes and chronic inflammation, with some biomarker levels partially recovering during remission.

This chapter reviews dermatological treatments, noting that botulinum toxin A is associated with a higher occurrence of focal weakness compared to controls, and reports on adverse effects of finasteride and PUVA therapy.

This review examines recent advancements in green and emerging microextraction techniques, such as SPME and DLLME, for more sustainable hormone detection in biological samples, emphasizing environmentally friendly solvents and bioanalytical applications.

This study found that compounds extracted from Cucurbita maxima seeds at 50 °C for 2 hours demonstrated significant binding affinities against breast cancer-related proteins, suggesting potential anticancer activity needing further in vitro and in vivo evaluation.

This study found that hair contains tightly bound lipids such as cholesterol sulfate, cholesterol, fatty alcohols, and free fatty acids, which are resistant to solvent extraction.

GLI2 activates GLI1, promoting skin tumor growth and hair development.

This study demonstrated the development of high-density protein microarrays allowing for antibody binding characterization and serum profiling from patients with autoimmune diseases, suggesting potential for diagnostic marker discovery.

This study concluded that cytokines and growth factors significantly regulate hair growth in vitro, with some completely inhibiting growth, such as EGF and TNFα.

This study observed that higher prenatal androgen loads were associated with more severe alcohol dependence in male patients and linked to behaviors of pregnant women that may influence their children’s androgen exposure.

This study suggests that αMSH may play a regulatory role in human dermal papilla cells, potentially influencing immune and inflammatory responses in hair follicles, which could contribute to inflammatory alopecia.

This study found that androgen metabolism within hair follicles varies significantly between compartments, with dermal papillae showing high 5α-reductase activity, suggesting a key role in androgen-driven hair growth responses.

This study found that GLI2 plays a key role in activating follistatin, an activin/BMP antagonist, in response to hedgehog signaling in human epidermal cells, with implications for hair follicle development and basal cell carcinoma.

Interleukin-1β stops hair growth by increasing cyclic AMP levels.

This review explores the use of topical and transdermal delivery for drugs and cosmetics, highlighting the benefits of avoiding side effects and rapid metabolism, with a focus on nanoparticulate formulations and techniques for studying skin penetration.

This case report suggests that topical St. John's wort oil may cause severe skin toxicity during radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer, acting as a significant radiosensitizer.

This study found that hair sample weight was a better predictor of hair cortisol concentration than hair protein concentration, suggesting that using the standard cortisol-to-weight ratio is more suitable for measuring cumulative cortisol activity in scalp hair.

This case report details a 57-year-old woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia who developed hyperpigmentation after treatment with dutasteride and pimecrolimus, highlighting no previously reported hyperpigmentation association with this combination.

In this study, certain cytokines and growth factors were found to significantly regulate hair growth in vitro, with EGF, TNFα, and IL-1β particularly inhibiting it.

This study found that α-MSH may suppress IFN-γ-driven upregulation of ICAM-1 in human dermal fibroblasts, suggesting potential roles for melanocortins in inflammatory skin disorders beyond collagen synthesis effects.

This study found that α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone may modulate inflammation in skin connective tissue by inhibiting proinflammatory effects in fibroblasts.

This study extracted water-soluble keratin particles from chicken feathers and verified their structural properties, observing no irritative potential on hen's eggs and positive physiological effects on human skin cells, suggesting their suitability for use on damaged or irritated skin.

In this study, researchers extracted soluble keratin proteins from chicken feathers and found they maintain structural integrity with potential uses for damaged skin, exhibiting no irritative effects in ex vivo settings on hen's eggs.

This study found that hormone replacement therapy was associated with reduced COVID-19 mortality and adverse outcomes in nonimmunosuppressed postmenopausal women and immunocompromised male solid organ transplant recipients.

This case study observed that unilateral oophorectomy may improve severe hyperandrogenism in adolescents with PCOS, even when imaging and SVS do not indicate neoplasm.
