In this study, transplantation of hair follicle stem cells and nerve growth factor-modified stem cells significantly reduced amyloid deposition and tau hyperphosphorylation in an Alzheimer's disease rat model, suggesting potential as a treatment option.

In this experimental study on rats, the researchers reported that administering minoxidil did not have significant electrophysiological or histopathological effects on penicillin-induced epilepsy, although future studies with larger sample sizes are recommended for more definitive conclusions.

This article discusses the development of an interactive workbook by OCCAM to help cancer patients communicate their use of complementary and alternative medicine with healthcare providers and reports no clinical results.

This study found that in a rat model of alopecia, combining low-level laser therapy with Neoptide treatment resulted in better hair regrowth compared to either treatment used alone.

Low-Level Laser Therapy can stimulate healing and cell function, potentially leading to wider medical use.

This guideline from the Endocrine Society recommends using the Rotterdam criteria for diagnosing polycystic ovary syndrome and outlines first-line treatments, emphasizing hormonal contraceptives and lifestyle intervention.

This review discusses the use of natural products in cosmetic preparations for skin and hair care, but reports no new research results.

This review discusses guidelines for androgen use in women and concludes that more research is needed before recommending testosterone due to insufficient evidence on safety and efficacy.

This article reviews the effects of various medications on male fertility, noting that while commonly used drugs can mostly have reversible impacts, conclusive human evidence remains limited.

This study found that Zizyphus jujuba essential oil enhanced hair growth in mice, with the 1% and 10% concentrations showing increased hair length compared to control.

This study found that a novel effervescent formulation significantly increased minoxidil sulphate accumulation in hair follicles and skin compared to a standard minoxidil solution.

In this study, microneedles combined with finasteride nanostructured lipid carriers (FIN-NLC-MNs) were found to enhance skin penetration and specifically target hair follicles, promoting hair growth and gene regulation in androgenetic alopecia.

This review found that platelet-rich plasma therapy improved hair growth and thickness in most studies on alopecia, with the highest improvement seen when combined with Minoxidil.

In this animal study, ultrasound combined with a new microbubble formulation of minoxidil increased hair growth rates and improved follicle characteristics more effectively than minoxidil alone.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma was effective for hair regrowth in women with androgenic alopecia, though less so than minoxidil, but it was associated with improved quality of life responses.

This review discusses the role of the androgen receptor in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment, and notes a lack of new research results on its therapeutic potential.

This study demonstrated that a new topical treatment using ketotifen-loaded microneedles, designed for prolonged release, significantly reduced inflammatory markers in an animal model of allergic conjunctivitis, suggesting enhanced therapeutic delivery and sustained ocular benefits.

This study developed a triple drug delivery system using nanoparticles loaded with 5-fluorouracil, curcumin, and piperine to target breast tumors, demonstrating notable in vitro cytotoxicity and anti-metastatic potential in 3D tumor spheroids which suggests its promise for further preclinical evaluation.

This study evaluated new aqueous gel formulations of minoxidil without irritants and found that the calcium alginate gel showed the best performance in terms of drug release and skin permeation.

This study found that minoxidil stimulates the Kir6.2/SUR2 potassium channel, leading to tumor growth arrest in an ovarian cancer xenograft model by disrupting mitochondrial function and inducing cell death.

This case report describes oleoma on the thighs and buttocks appearing two years after an injection for cellulite treatment, suggesting the need for more research to ensure the procedure's safety and efficacy.

This review discusses the use of microneedling for androgenetic alopecia and finds it promising for enhancing hair density and thickness, especially when combined with other treatments, but notes no standardized protocol exists yet.

Non-thermal plasma helps hair grow by improving the area around hair follicles.

This review discusses the roles of adiponectin and bradykinin in skin homeostasis and pathologies, highlighting the need for further research into their therapeutic potential but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that finasteride-loaded microspheres effectively treated androgenic alopecia in a mouse model, showing similar hair growth effects to orally-administered finasteride.

In this study, the researchers reported that while both propylene glycol and sodium lauryl sulfate enhanced finasteride's skin deposition, ethanol was the only effective enhancer of finasteride's permeation through the skin.

In this study, a new Finasteride conjugate showed stronger inhibition of 5α-reductase and similar reduction of prostate hyperplasia in rats compared to Finasteride, with potentially improved toxicity.

This study explored the optimization of phytochemicals from Alstonia boonei to develop potential 5-alpha reductase inhibitors for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, finding promising analogs with enhanced binding affinity and stability compared to Finasteride, warranting further experimental validation.

This book reviews the various types of acne and acneiform conditions, as well as their treatment options, with expert insights from multiple fields.
