This review examines physical methods like electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry, highlighting their complementary capabilities in analyzing biomolecular structures and mycobacterial interactions with reactive oxygen species and antioxidants.

In this study, researchers characterized a dehydroepiandrosterone hydroxylating enzyme system in hair follicles similar to the liver monooxygenase system, noting its inhibition by carbon monoxide and its dependence on NADPH.

This study found that six months of combined estrogen-progestin pill therapy led to a significant reduction in serum AMH levels and improvement in hyperandrogenic symptoms among women with PCOS.

This article provides diagnosis and treatment guidelines for hyperandrogenic disorders in women but reports no new clinical results; it offers a summary of accepted scientific information and suggestions for clinical practice.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy with argon sputter etching visualizes hair lipids at the cell membrane complex as distinctive convex structures, shedding light on their role and localization in human hair.

In this study, a new topical formulation containing amine-activated carboxymethyl chitosan and hydrolyzed extracellular matrix showed promising results in a mouse model by reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, and promoting hair regeneration, potentially offering an alternative treatment for inflammatory hair loss.

This study found that concentrations of haloperidol and its metabolite in human scalp hair significantly correlated with the daily dose and plasma trough levels in patients taking haloperidol.

This study found that small proline-rich proteins modify the biomechanical properties of cornified cell envelopes in rodent forestomachs, potentially affecting the tissue's ability to withstand mechanical stress.

This study found that bioconjugating 16-methylheptadecanoic acid to damaged human hair can mimic the protective function of the original 18-methyleicosanoic acid, effectively restoring both the hair's external structural integrity and its internal moisture balance.

This study developed and validated a micellar electrokinetic chromatography method to determine finasteride stability, finding that the drug degrades under acidic, basic, and oxidative stress conditions.

HEV light can harm or help skin and scalp, so safe exposure guidelines are needed.

This study suggests using a handheld dermatoscope may allow for simple and efficient differentiation of eruptive vellus hair cysts by detecting vellus hair shafts, as demonstrated in a familial case involving five women.

This article discusses how activating the hexosamine pathway may enhance skin homeostasis by increasing hyaluronic acid secretion and supporting hair follicle stem cell self-renewal, but reports no new results.

The study reported a significant genotype–phenotype correlation in prepubescent males with XLHED, particularly in the severity of skin and hair manifestations between those with different EDA mutations.

This study found that combining CelluTome system and RCM is a safe and effective protocol for evaluating wound healing responses in patients with epidermolysis bullosa.

This study found that high-dose cyproterone acetate was effective for treating hirsutism, but 33% of patients felt their condition worsened on low-dose maintenance therapy, despite no significant change in objective measures of hair growth.

This review discusses the importance of heme oxygenase in skin physiology and disease, but it reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight its potential as a treatment target for conditions like atopic dermatitis and psoriasis.

This project by the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery reviews best practices in hair restoration surgery and reports no new research findings.

Human hair follicles have their own thyroid hormone system.

This study suggests that the cell membrane complex in hair cuticles contains hydrophilic regions with disulfide bonds allowing polymer uptake and hydrophobic lamella-like lipid layers.

In this study, researchers found that hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells, modified to overexpress extracellular matrix protein 1, significantly improved liver function and reduced liver damage in cirrhotic mice by inhibiting hepatic stellate cell activation and TGF-β/Smad signaling.

This case report highlights the importance of histopathological examination in accurately diagnosing eruptive vellus hair cyst due to its rarity and resemblance to other conditions.

This study found that women with severe hirsutism have thicker subcutaneous abdominal fatty tissue and are more likely to develop metabolic syndrome compared to those with moderate hirsutism.

This article describes Amy Senior's evolving views on the Joint Council for Cosmetic Practitioners and reports no new research findings.

This study found that the HairCheck® device, demonstrating high correlation between its Hair Mass Index and hair characteristics such as strand number and diameter, may be an effective tool for assessing hair mass changes in alopecia patients.

This study concluded that a new model of reconstructed human epidermis using keratinocytes from plucked hair follicles offers a less-invasive alternative to conventional skin-derived models for skin research.

This review discusses the potential health risks of mercury released from dental amalgam, examining its effects on multiple body systems, and calls for replacing amalgam with composite resins due to these concerns.

This study found that after four weeks of daily use, the roughness of the hair surface significantly decreased, as shown through quantitative image analysis using HIROX.

This study observed that five out of fourteen individuals aged 13-16 years, who were homozygous for the p.C282Y mutation related to hemochromatosis, had increased liver and phlebotomy-mobilized iron levels.

This study found hirsutism negatively affects quality of life and psychological wellbeing in women, suggesting effective medical treatment alongside psychotherapy might better address these issues than psychotherapy alone.
