This study reported that an ATRA-loaded nanostructured lipid carrier gel (ATRA-NLC-Gel) improved symptoms of alopecia areata in mice by enhancing transdermal drug delivery, reducing skin irritation, and promoting hair regrowth through targeted follicle enrichment and pathway activation.

This study in neonatal rats found that inhibiting neurosteroid synthesis with finasteride unexpectedly reduced the severity and duration of neonatal seizures following birth asphyxia, maintained cognitive functions, but increased anxiety-like behaviors, highlighting a complex role of neurosteroids in hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy outcomes.

In this study, researchers developed a carboxylated β-cyclodextrin formulation to enhance finasteride's physicochemical properties, achieving an encapsulation efficiency of about 85% and indicating potential for controlled drug release in therapeutic applications. Their findings suggest this inclusion complex could improve delivery of hydrophobic drugs like finasteride.

This study explored the in vitro skin penetration of two compounds from Tectona grandis leaf extract used for standardization and found that compound 1 penetrates more efficiently than compound 2, especially with a propylene glycol enhancer.

Transethosomes improve drug delivery through the skin and show promise for treating various conditions.

This study identified the transcription factor Elf5 as a novel regulator of keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation in skin, with expression elevated in stem/progenitor cell populations, suggesting its potential role in determining cell fate during skin and hair development.

This study formulated and characterized a dutasteride-loaded nanocrystalline suspension for long-acting parenteral delivery, finding that it provided sustained drug release in rats with a significant reduction in local inflammation over 28 days following intramuscular injection.

This review by two dermatologists suggests that hair on the human scalp may protect against skin cancer not just physically, but by enabling IL-17 immune surveillance, with hair loss potentially leading to increased tumor growth due to reduced immunosurveillance.

In this review, an association was reported between early-onset androgenetic alopecia and several health conditions like obesity and cardiovascular disease, with genetic and therapeutic research ongoing to improve treatment.

In this case report from People's College of Medical Sciences, a 20-year-old man initially misdiagnosed with Addison's disease was ultimately found to have strongyloidiasis, with his symptoms and weight loss improving after antihelminthic treatment.

This review examines the mechanisms of hair follicle development and regeneration, discussing current hair loss treatments and emerging therapies like low-level laser therapy and stem cell therapy, which the authors suggest show promise in managing hair loss.

This review explores the clinical applications of platelet rich plasma therapies across several fields and suggests potential future research directions for cord blood platelet rich plasma.

Homemade hair treatments can significantly lower drug levels in hair, possibly causing false-negative drug tests.

This review discusses current treatment methods for managing androgenetic alopecia in men and women, but reports no new clinical results, highlighting the lack of a standard treatment guide.

This study provides genomic and epigenomic insights into the white wax scale insect, highlighting high methylation levels and differential hormone profiles linked to its sexual dimorphism and developmental differences.

This review discusses rodent models of human hair loss and highlights the potential of traditional medicinal plants as hair growth promoters, but reports no new clinical results.

This abstract lists numerous dermatological side effects and reactions associated with various medications but reports no new research findings.

This study described the development and evaluation of a finasteride nanogel for treating androgenetic alopecia, reporting higher cumulative drug release and enhanced spreadability compared to a plain gel, suggesting potential as a treatment option.

This study found that long-term flutamide treatment reduced hair loss in women with female pattern hair loss, but liver-related dropouts were minimized at a very low dose of 62.5 mg/day.

This research paper reviews the anti-androgenic properties of the drug flutamide and its metabolite Sch 16423 but presents no new experimental results.

This review summarizes updated US prescribing information for teriflunomide in relapsing multiple sclerosis, highlighting its efficacy in reducing lesion activity and relapse rates but noting potential adverse effects such as headache and diarrhea.

This study found that t-flavanone may promote hair growth in people with androgenic alopecia by enhancing hair anchoring strength and upregulating desmoglein expression in hair follicles over 30 weeks.

This study found that oral administration of Flammulina velutipes polysaccharide reduced tumor volume and improved survival in mice by modulating macrophage polarization and enhancing antitumor immune responses.

This study found that higher levels of the protein Flii were associated with enhanced hair follicle regeneration and longer hair fibers in a mouse model.

This study reports the development of a natural hair conditioner incorporating herbs like flaxseed, turmeric, and fenugreek, demonstrating satisfactory physical characteristics, stability, and potential effectiveness as a cost-effective alternative to commercial chemical hair products.

Flutamide helps with prostate cancer and some skin conditions but can harm the liver.

In this study, ultradeformable liposomes containing Tween 20 or terpenes increased phospholipid bilayer fluidity and enhanced skin penetration of sodium fluorescein, with terpenes improving hair follicle penetration.

This study found that Flammulina velutipes polysaccharides-derived scaffolds greatly enhanced wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in a rat model, particularly with the FPS/NaOH variant showing the best results.

This review discusses the pharmacological profile of teriflunomide for treating relapsing multiple sclerosis, highlighting its safety and effectiveness in reducing relapses and slowing disability progression, though direct comparisons with other oral medications are lacking.

This study found flutamide to be an effective long-term treatment for female pattern hair loss with improved alopecia scores and high compliance when using very low doses, though some potential for hepatic disorders was observed initially.
