This study observed that in Japanese females, hair lipid composition showed significant correlations, suggesting CH and CERs may act as a barrier against sebum-derived lipids.

This study found that among Japanese IBD patients, the NUDT15 p.Arg139Cys variant was significantly associated with thiopurine-induced leukopenia and severe hair loss, suggesting its genotyping is important for predicting these adverse events.

This study found that androgen receptor expression varied across different types of skin appendage tumors, with specific expression patterns noted in sebaceous and sweat gland tumors but absent in hair follicle tumors.

This study found that testosterone and 5α-dihydrotestosterone affect human sebocytes differently depending on the skin region, with spironolactone inhibiting their proliferation and counteracting androgen effects in facial sebocytes.

This study found that the contribution of the hair follicle pathway to skin permeation of chemicals can be predicted using lipophilicity, with hydrophilic chemicals showing greater permeation reduction from hair follicle plugging than lipophilic ones.

Raspberry ketone may help grow hair and improve skin elasticity.

This study found that Bokusoku extract and its compound pentagalloyl glucose inhibited testosterone metabolism and sebum synthesis, suggesting potential therapeutic use for androgen-related acne.

This case study reports on a mother and daughter with ichthyosis follicularis, alopecia, and photophobia, noting consistent keratotic eruptions during the mother's pregnancies that improved postpartum.

This study found that basement membrane components and structures in mouse hair follicles are highly specialized for specific inter-tissue interactions, with laminin α5 playing a crucial role in hair cycle regulation and anchoring.

This study found that overexpression of sPLA2-X in mice was associated with alopecia and hair follicle abnormalities, highlighting its potential role in hair follicle homeostasis.

This study re-examined the structure of lanceolate endings in rat vibrissae, suggesting that their apical cones may function as a transducer site for detecting hair movements.

This study found that in Japanese male patients with androgenetic alopecia, dutasteride 0.5 mg daily over 52 weeks was associated with improvements in hair growth and appearance, with reported adverse events mostly mild.

This study identified a homozygous frameshift mutation in the HOXC13 gene associated with pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia in a consanguineous Syrian family, suggesting crucial roles for HOXC13 in hair and nail development.

Eating isoflavone can help mice grow hair by increasing a growth factor.

This study found that minoxidil nanoparticles increased drug delivery to hair follicles and improved hair growth more effectively in mice than conventional minoxidil formulations.

This study demonstrated that combining cell conditioning with mild protease digestion enhanced the visualization of versican mRNA in formalin-fixed mouse skin tissue sections compared to using either technique alone.

This article reviews the impact of natural fungal pathogens on laboratory animal research and reports no new results, calling attention to infection risks with dermatophytes, Candida, and pneumonia in immunocompromised rodents.

This review discusses micro-segmental hair analysis for forensic toxicology, emphasizing its potential to provide detailed drug distribution profiles and its application in investigations, while noting the method's limitations and future perspectives.

This case report details a 23-year-old woman who was poisoned with thallium by a colleague and treated with activated charcoal and Prussian blue.

This study found that using valproic acid during radiotherapy for glioma was associated with delayed hair loss and improved survival outcomes.

This study describes a case of epidermolysis bullosa simplex where maternal somatic and germline mosaicism was identified, highlighting the significance for genetic counseling in sporadic cases.

This study found that melanin granules in black human hair are key dyeing regions for oxidative hair coloring, as confirmed by nanoscale mass spectrometry analysis detecting deuterium ions.

This study found that water-soluble extracts of Illicium anisatum promoted hair follicle elongation in cultured mouse vibrissae, suggesting potential use in hair growth products.

This review discusses medical conditions and therapies related to various elements, such as zinc, copper, mercury, cadmium, lead, chromium, and arsenic, without reporting new experimental results; it highlights past findings on deficiencies, toxicities, and historical cases.

This study found that the collagen-binding fusion protein PTH-CBD significantly improved hair regrowth and follicle health in mice after chemotherapy, suggesting potential as a therapy for chemotherapy-induced alopecia.

This study found that a combination therapy of oral corticosteroid and oral PUVA led to scalp hair regrowth in patients with intractable alopecia totalis and universalis within two months.

This study reports that OKT6-positive dendritic cells increase in hair follicles during progressive alopecia areata, suggesting a potential role in disease pathogenesis through interaction with T cells.

In this study, researchers found that glycan profiles in epidermal stem cells differed between young and old mice, suggesting these changes may serve as molecular markers for aging.

In this study, a single dose of PTH–CBD produced a sustained increase in bone mineral density for up to a year in mice, indicating its potential as an osteoporosis treatment.

This study found that Erica multiflora extract promotes hair growth by enhancing dermal papilla cell activity and shifting hair follicles from the telogen to the anagen phase in both in vitro and in vivo models.
