This study concluded that heterozygosity for CYP21 mutations is associated with higher mean and free testosterone levels in women but does not significantly increase their risk of developing clinically evident hyperandrogenism.

This study reports that using nanogel and layer-by-layer self-assembly to encapsulate single dermal papilla cells can form cell spheroids that regenerate hair follicles successfully in a hair follicle regeneration model.

This study found that T-regulatory cells, specifically the FOXP3 CD39 subset, were significantly reduced in both circulation and hair follicles of alopecia areata patients compared to healthy subjects, suggesting potential therapeutic targets.

This article reviews existing and emerging treatments for psoriasis, focusing on therapy modifications due to scientific advancements, but it does not report new clinical results.

This study found a higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome in patients with lichen planus, especially those with mucosal involvement, which is associated with increased cardiovascular and diabetes risk.

This study found that early life stress significantly affects hedonic sensitivity to high-palatable food by altering gonadal hormones in prenatally-stressed male and female rats, with sex-dependent changes in reward-related behaviors and neurochemistry.

This study observed that selectively activating activin in the epidermis of mice enhanced reepithelialization during wound healing without altering the quality of the healed wound.

This study found that cutaneous pyridoxal 5'-phosphate hydrolase activity may be carried out by an enzyme different from the classical tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase in human and mouse skin.

This study found that tannic acid accelerated wound healing in rats by modulating inflammatory cytokines, increasing growth factors, and activating the Erk 1/2 pathway.

This study found that in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, xanthine oxidase activity is a useful marker for oxidative stress and is positively correlated with inflammatory markers and cardiovascular disease risk factors.

This review examines mesotherapy for local fat reduction, detailing its mechanisms, safety concerns, and the need for research toward FDA-approved uses, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that macrophage-stimulating protein (MSP) enhanced hair growth in both human hair follicles cultured in vitro and in mice through the promotion of anagen phase induction.

This study investigated the use of Minoxidil encapsulated in HA-PLGA nanoparticles for alopecia treatment and found that these nanoparticles efficiently delivered the drug to hair follicle cells without significant cytotoxicity, offering a potential transdermal delivery method for various diseases.

In this review, the authors summarize the phytochemistry, pharmacology, and medicinal uses of Hibiscus rosa sinensis, highlighting its various benefits such as hypotensive and anti-inflammatory effects, while noting the need for more research on its specific mechanisms and potential toxicities.

This study found that Ganoderma lucidum extracts reduced prostate enlargement and improved symptoms in testosterone-treated rats, suggesting potential benefits for managing benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study found that biallelic LSS mutations lead to congenital hypotrichosis and cataracts, with each tissue-specific loss of function observed in mouse models.

This study found that keratin coatings from human hair may improve the colony-forming efficiency of human mesenchymal stem cells by moderating donor variability, suggesting a potential use in clinical applications.

This study found that topically delivering KGF-1 DNA plasmid increased epithelial thickness and skin strength, suggesting potential benefits for strengthening compromised skin.

This study found that switching patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension from benzalkonium chloride-latanoprost to preservative-free latanoprost maintained intraocular pressure control and improved tolerability, potentially enhancing treatment adherence and quality of life.

In this study, CD109 overexpression in transgenic mice led to reduced inflammation and improved collagen organization during wound healing without affecting wound closure.

This study suggests that a mixture of 5‐ALA and iron ion significantly improved hair growth in mice, comparable to minoxidil, without promoting keratinocyte or fibroblast proliferation in vitro.

This study found that keratin derivatives with functionalized thiol groups improved binding to both natural and bleached hair fibers, suggesting a promising strategy for enhancing keratin's durability in hair repair.

This study found that valproic acid may interfere with the leucine metabolic pathway by inhibiting 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase and biotinidase, which could contribute to side effects like skin rash and hair loss in patients.

This study found that NGAL expression increased in calcium-induced keratinocyte differentiation in vitro and was highly elevated in psoriasis-like skin conditions and skin cancers, suggesting a role in skin hyperplasia and homeostasis.

This review discusses the relationship between zinc deficiency and skin disorders, emphasizing zinc transporters' roles, but it reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight potential benefits of regulating zinc levels via transporters.

This study found that using layer-by-layer encapsulation techniques on dermal papilla cells can support their function and may help treat hair loss when used in conjunction with freshly isolated epidermal cells.

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 glycine treatment inhibited melanogenesis in B16F0 melanoma cells and reduced melanin content in C57BL/6J mice by down-regulating tyrosinase protein levels.

This review discusses using cultured dermal papilla cells to investigate hair follicle biology, emphasizing their potential to inform treatments, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Sargassum muticum extract and apo-9′-fucoxanthinone promoted hair growth in rat and mouse models by increasing dermal papilla cell proliferation and activating certain signaling pathways.
