This review examines around 68 plant sources from six major plant families, assessing their scientific rationale and use by the cosmeceutical industry for applications like anti-ageing and sun protection.

This case report details two women with female pattern hair loss who experienced severe scalp allergic contact dermatitis from minoxidil, one due to the active ingredient and the other due to the vehicle.

This review discusses plant-based alternatives to retinoids for dermal antiaging and hair health, highlighting roles for cytokinins and phytoestrogens and reports no new results.

In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, researchers found that a multi-targeted cosmetic formulation containing TrinogeniX™ significantly increased hair density and thickness in individuals with androgenetic alopecia without adverse effects, suggesting it as a potential safe and effective treatment option.

In a study on wound healing, researchers described injectable POEGMA‐DA hydrogels as a promising non-toxic alternative to traditional wound closure methods, showing effective tissue adhesion and enhanced regeneration of skin structures in a mouse model without significant inflammation.

This review discusses various nanoparticles and nanoemulsions being investigated for transdermal drug delivery and reports no clinical results; it highlights potential applications in treating alopecia, wound healing, psoriasis, and melanoma.

This study found that Na CMC hydrogel loaded with PEG-coated silver nanoparticles demonstrated superior antibacterial and wound-healing efficacy compared to commercial silver sulfadiazine cream in a wound-healing model.

This study found that using monoolein cubic phase nanoparticles with an entrapped hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin/minoxidil complex increased minoxidil skin permeation, but minoxidil retention in the skin was higher with a traditional solution.

This review explores potential indications for prolactin receptor inhibitors beyond breast and prostate cancers, emphasizing the need for potent antibodies to further research prolactin receptor expression.

This case report describes a patient with an allergic sensitization to minoxidil, indicating that such patients should pursue alternative therapies to treat androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that nano-sized lipid particles improved the skin accumulation and retention of dexamethasone compared to a base cream, suggesting potential benefits for inflammatory skin disease treatment.

This study found that 3D cultured hair follicle-like constructs, which include keratinocytes and dermal papilla cells, showed improved gene expression and cell interactions relevant to hair follicle development.

This study focused on developing agarose/fucoidan hydrogels for the encapsulation of pancreatic cells, reporting that these materials supported cell viability and self-organization into pseudo-islets over 7 days, highlighting potential for diabetes treatment applications.

This study demonstrated that hyaluronan gel is a promising biomaterial for 3-D in vitro culture of mouse ovarian follicles, supporting the production of fertilizable metaphase II oocytes.

In this study, PEGDE above 10,000 μg/mouse caused subcutaneous toxicity including ulceration in mice, but did not affect liver, spleen, or kidney tissues.

This study reports that mutations in human L-PGDS affect the entrance and exit of ligands in its binding cavity, suggesting these residues play a role in ligand interaction processes.

This study demonstrates a method to noninvasively assess lipid classes in rodent sebum via high-field proton NMR, observing significant lipid reductions in rats treated with an SCD1 inhibitor.

In this study, a polyherbal hair serum containing extracts of hibiscus petals and amla fruits showed significant antifungal activity against Candida albicans and exhibited satisfactory stability, physicochemical properties, and potential for improving hair health and reducing dandruff.

This review discusses recent advances in polydopamine-based biomaterials and their growing potential in personalized medicine, but reports no new experimental results; the authors highlight both opportunities and challenges for future applications.

In this survey, dermatologists in India reported preferring alcohol-free minoxidil combined with procapil and finasteride over traditional alcohol-based formulations for managing androgenetic alopecia, citing better tolerance and patient adherence.

This study examined three olive oil formulations of baricitinib for topical delivery in treating alopecia areata, finding that Oil A showed the highest skin retention and maintained skin integrity without irritation, suggesting its potential for further investigation.

In this study, researchers developed a microfluidic-assisted technology to create dual-layer microspheres containing mesenchymal and epidermal cells, which efficiently induced hair follicle regeneration in mice, suggesting potential improvements for hair regeneration treatments in conditions like androgenetic alopecia.

This study examined the stability of two 5α-reductase inhibitors in Tectona grandis extracts, finding that they are more stable in acidic environments and degrade rapidly under heat and light unless protected, suggesting the need for careful storage when developing anti-hair loss medications.

This study found that higher concentrations of topical diphenylcyclopropenone, especially when prepared with acetone, showed better stability over 6 months compared to lower concentrations.

This study evaluated a hair tonic formulated from oil palm leaf extract, finding it demonstrated very strong antioxidant activity and could prevent hair decolorization from sun exposure, with effective concentrations ranging from 25 to 200 ppm.

New materials and methods could improve skin healing and reduce scarring.

This study found that a combination of ciclosporin and Miglyol 812 was effective in treating sebaceous adenitis in rabbits, with significant improvement in skin condition and hair regrowth.

This study found that a herbal gel containing fenugreek seed extract significantly promoted hair growth on mice after 30 days of topical application.

In this study, researchers developed gellan gum hydrogels functionalized with biomimetic peptides that create a supportive microenvironment for human dermal papilla cells, enhancing their hair-inductive capacity and ability to mimic hair morphogenesis-like events in vitro.

This study reported that newly developed RADA16-I peptide hybrids, with active motifs like GHK and KGHK, demonstrated improved wound healing in a mouse skin injury model without cytotoxicity, suggesting they might be effective scaffolds for tissue engineering and regeneration.
