This study found that 11α-hydroxyprogesterone is a potent inhibitor of 11βHSD2 in vitro and may serve as a precursor to unique C11α-hydroxy steroids in prostate cancer tissue.

This study suggests that nail loss may be a new, reversible adverse event related to teriflunomide treatment, akin to its known effects on hair loss.

This survey found support among BAAPS members for using procedure-specific consent forms to improve clarity and consistency in patient information for aesthetic procedures.

This study reported that certain minoxidil conjugates, specifically those with spermine, methylenedianiline, and diaminofluorene, were able to induce differentiation in HL-60 acute myeloid leukemia cells without toxicity at a concentration of 10 μM.

This study found that baricitinib improved symptoms of atopic dermatitis and alopecia areata in both adults and children in real-world settings, aligning with clinical trial results, while noting low discontinuation due to adverse events and no new safety concerns.

This study found that castration increased 5 alpha-reductase activity in the sebaceous glands of male hamsters, but administering testosterone propionate or 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone inhibited this effect.

In this study, researchers reported that adenosine stimulated hair shaft elongation in cultured human hair follicles by promoting proliferation and prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting the A2B adenosine receptor in outer root sheath keratinocytes as a promising target for treating hair growth disorders like alopecia.

This study found that standardized scalp massages may help stabilize or regrow hair in individuals with androgenic alopecia, as perceived by the participants themselves.

This study analyzed the geometric and electronic properties of baicalin conformers, finding that BCLa2TT and BCLa1TT conformers exhibit high stability in aqueous solutions and are favorable for interactions with positively charged species.

This study reports the synthesis and structural characterization of a novel dinuclear platinum(III) complex with potential antitumor and catalytic activity.

This article suggests that nail abnormalities might occur temporarily after COVID-19 vaccination, but they are self-limiting and should not deter individuals from getting vaccinated.

The document says biodegradable cosmetics and packaging are better for the environment and user experience.

This study found that solid-state NMR combined with X-ray techniques provided critical insights into the structure and solvation of finasteride polymorphs, identifying gaps in existing patent characterizations.

Buschke-Ollendorff syndrome is a rare genetic disorder causing skin and bone changes, with some cases also showing ADHD or developmental delays.

This case study reports that different organs, such as hair and stature, may grow at varying rates during different stages of growth.

Cats lose fur due to various reasons, including allergies, infections, genetics, hormones, diet, cancer, stress, and some conditions are treatable while others are not.

This report indicates that crash dieting followed by substantial weight loss may lead to hair loss, known as telogen effluvium.

In this review, researchers discussed various novel drug delivery systems, including lipid nanocarriers and polymeric nanoparticles, that may enhance treatment for alopecia by improving drug localization in hair follicles and reducing systemic exposure, potentially offering better outcomes than conventional treatments.

This review critically examines Forensic DNA Phenotyping, highlighting high accuracy in predicting certain traits but also legal and ethical challenges, particularly around regulatory fragmentation and issues of genetic privacy.

This study reviewed the potential adverse effects of coconut oil on hair and found that its high protein content and greasy texture can cause clogged pores, inflammation, and hair damage if overused, highlighting the importance of careful application to prevent these issues.

This article discusses the widespread issue of zinc deficiency affecting plant, animal, and human health, and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the need for adequate zinc availability in agriculture and nutrition.

This study suggests that the expression of VLCFA biosynthesis genes is suppressed in skin hyperplasia and cancer, which could influence keratinocyte function.

The Leechbook shows how hair and sexual health were key to medieval masculinity and some remedies may still be useful.

This study found that alkaloids isolated from Cucumis metuliferus fruit pulp demonstrated antiviral activity against IBDV in chicken embryo fibroblast cells and NDV in 10-day-old embryonated chicken eggs, while being non-cytotoxic.

In this study, the activation of Notch1 signaling in keratinocytes was found to play a key role in recruiting immune cells and facilitating skin repair after injury.

This study found that knock-down of keratin 15 in various cell lines affected cell spreading, morphology, migration, differentiation, and proliferation, suggesting its role in maintaining the stem cell nature of keratinocytes.

This study found that men who began balding at age 20 were twice as likely to develop prostate cancer later in life compared to those who did not experience early hair loss.

This study observed that stem cells from the hair follicle dermis share similarities with bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells and have potential to form neural-like cells under specific conditions.

This study found that a quantitative system detected subtle asymmetries in frontotemporal hairline regression among male androgenetic alopecia patients, which were not captured by the traditional Norwood classification.
