In human hair follicle cultures, this study found that cyclohexyl salicylate, an OR2A4/7 agonist, promoted hair growth by delaying catagen development and expanding epithelial stem cell progeny, suggesting its potential as a non-drug hair loss treatment.

The antidepressant escitalopram likely caused hair loss in a patient.

This study demonstrated that cultured epidermal stem cells and skin-derived precursors can regenerate functional hair follicles and sebaceous glands in both mice and adult humans, suggesting potential for bioengineered skin substitutes.

This report describes two cases of nevus lipomatosus superficialis with the unusual feature of dilated hair follicles, emphasizing the need for precise histopathological diagnosis to differentiate from similar conditions.

In this mouse study, the combination of minoxidil-coated lysozyme microbubbles and ultrasound significantly enhanced hair growth compared to minoxidil alone.

This article reviews recent imaging and genetic tool advances that enable in vivo study of hair regeneration and assessment of skin parameters, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a 505-bp indel variant in the FGF5 gene associated with cashmere growth in goats, which may serve as a molecular marker in cashmere goat breeding programs.

This study observed that undifferentiated matrix cells at the base of the hair follicle differentiate into the medulla, cortex, cuticle, and inner root sheath cell types through specific morphological changes.

This case report describes a 9-year-old Korean boy with a calcified nodule on his earlobe, confirmed by histopathologic examination and Von Kossa staining.

In this study, researchers found that syntaxin 9, a novel syntaxin family member, interacts specifically with the epidermal growth factor receptor and may influence its transport and signaling in some epithelial cells.

In this study, chick embryo extract enhanced neuronal differentiation and trophic factor expression in rat hair follicle stem cells, suggesting potential improvements for stem cell therapies in neurodegenerative diseases.

According to this study, rice bran oil was as effective as 2% minoxidil in improving hair growth parameters, such as VEGF expression, follicle diameter, and hair length, in Wistar rats treated for 21 days, showing potential for preventing hair thinning associated with aging.

This review discusses female pattern hair loss as an early marker of hormonal imbalance and evaluates hormonal and lifestyle interventions, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that immunohistochemistry for calretinin may identify certain cutaneous adnexal tumors with follicular differentiation towards cells of the outer root sheath.

This study found that repeatedly collecting hair follicles from individuals with fragile X syndrome is feasible for measuring FMR1 and FMRP levels in both home and office settings.

This study found that vascular endothelial growth factor may protect hair follicle stem cells from androgen-induced apoptosis in androgenic alopecia patients via the PI3K/Akt pathway.

This study observed that primary hair follicles in Liaoning Cashmere goats had broader hair bulb widths compared to secondary follicles, with the difference diminishing during the anagen phase of hair follicle development.

This case report describes an unusual trichofolliculoma in a 54-year-old man, notable for its prominent mucinosis, which is typically not as abundant in such tumors.

This study found that combining oral testosterone with dutasteride increased testosterone bioavailability in hypogonadal men while suppressing dihydrotestosterone levels over a 28-day period.

In this study, altering the photoperiod in goats increased hormone concentrations and improved hair follicle development and skin antioxidant capacity, suggesting that short photoperiods may create favorable conditions for cashmere growth.

This study examined the zinc levels in Kurdish adults experiencing hair loss to understand its relationship with four types of hair loss, although specific results were not reported in the abstract.

This case study reported that using the ayurvedic treatment protocol of Nitya Virechana, Kulatthadi Kashaya, and Shatapushpa Churna was associated with improved menstrual regularity, reduced obesity, and decreased symptoms of hirsutism and acne in a 19-year-old woman with PCOD.

This study found that a combination of spironolactone and oral contraceptive pills may improve hirsutism and hormonal profiles in women, although some experienced side effects such as persistent nausea.

Combining microneedling with drugs and stem cells shows promise for improving hair growth in androgenetic alopecia.

This article describes a woman's case of slowly progressive nonscarring alopecia with unique biopsy findings, suggesting the need to reexamine similar cases currently classified as chronic diffuse alopecia areata.

This study investigated a unique frontal fibrosing alopecia-like presentation of alopecia areata, finding that patients experienced an insidious, chronic course with limited scalp hair regrowth, and showed a lower response to systemic corticosteroids compared to patchy alopecia areata.

This case report describes a 59-year-old woman with cicatricial alopecia and multiple skin lesions, including nodules and plaques, with biopsy results showing a lymphocytic infiltrate and collagen replacement.

This study found that 1% minoxidil topical solution led to terminal hair regrowth in some patients with alopecia areata, though it was only cosmetically acceptable in less than half of those cases.

This study found that human dermal fibroblasts can promote the viability and proliferation of microvascular endothelial cells in vitro, revealing important interactions at play in hair growth.
