This study found that xylanase and pectinase enzymes clean wool and specialty hair fibers as effectively as soap, without causing physical damage, whereas resinase was not effective.

High doses of finasteride cause cell growth and tumors in mice.

This study found that nobiletin-loaded vesicles effectively restored skin condition in a mouse model of skin cancer, suggesting they are a promising treatment delivery system.

This study found that Ecklonia cava enzymatic extract, particularly its component dieckol, promoted hair growth by increasing dermal papilla cell proliferation and inhibiting 5α-reductase activity in cultured vibrissa follicles and C57BL/6 mice.

This study found that Puerariae Flos extract inhibited testosterone 5α-reductase and promoted hair growth in mouse models, suggesting its potential use for treating androgenic alopecia.

This study found that ion-paired solutions significantly improved the skin penetration of risedronate in hairless mice compared to risedronate alone.

This study found that a combination of 5% hexane extract of Curcuma aeruginosa and 5% minoxidil slowed hair loss and increased hair growth in men with androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that minoxidil increased 17ß-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity by nearly 40% in dermal papilla cells from balding scalps but not in nonbalding scalp cells or dermal fibroblasts.

In this study, the combination of finasteride and minoxidil significantly increased hair growth in balding male stumptail macaques compared to each drug alone.

In this study, researchers developed a new self-administered finasteride delivery system using powder-carrying microneedles that improved hair growth efficacy and addressed safety concerns compared to topical finasteride gel by allowing sustained intradermal release of the drug for three days with a single application.

This study found that measuring reproductive hormone levels in brown bear hair may effectively support non-invasive genetic sampling, though larger samples or more sensitive techniques are needed for broader application.

This study found that a novel effervescent formulation significantly increased minoxidil sulphate accumulation in hair follicles and skin compared to a standard minoxidil solution.

This study identified several herbs, including Ganoderma lucidum and Urtica dioica, that showed promising 5α-reductase inhibitory activity suggesting potential use in managing androgenic disorders.

This study found that the sebum partition coefficient (K(sebum)) for some drugs differs from the stratum corneum partition coefficient (K(sc)), indicating its importance for targeted drug delivery into hair and sebaceous follicles.

This review compiles studies on the antidiabetic potential of plants from the Middle East, particularly from the Asteraceae and Lamiaceae families, but reports no clinical results.

This study found that excipients significantly influence the effectiveness of curcumin nanocrystals in dermal applications, enhancing or hindering hair follicle targeting and passive diffusion based on their selection.

This review suggests that decreased serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels may play a role in different types of non-scarring alopecia, but further studies are needed to explore vitamin D supplementation as a therapeutic option.

This study found that coating liquid crystalline nanoparticles with chitosan significantly enhanced the skin permeation of 5α-reductase inhibitors, suggesting a promising strategy for improving topical delivery in androgenetic alopecia treatment.

This study found that nanostructured lipid carriers enhanced the skin penetration and retention of minoxidil compared to solid lipid nanoparticles, suggesting they could be a promising method for topical delivery.

In this study, rice bran supercritical CO2 extract demonstrated potential to promote hair growth in mice, increasing hair follicles and growth factor expression, similarly to 3% minoxidil.

This study observed that iontophoresis significantly improved the delivery of minoxidil sulfate to hair follicles compared to passive methods, suggesting potential benefits for alopecia treatment.

This study found that Blimp1+ cells from mice can generate sebaceous gland organoids in vitro, which mimic natural gland traits and may aid in studying acne vulgaris.

This review reports on the traditional and ethnopharmacological uses of Ziziphus jujuba Mills, noting its increasing global popularity for treating various ailments, but highlights that its acceptance into the European Pharmacopoeia remains unresolved due to scientific and regulatory challenges.

This study reported that in rat retinas under high pressure, allopregnanolone synthesis increased and helped reduce pressure-induced damage through GABAA receptors, suggesting potential therapeutic use in glaucoma.

This study found that Er–YAG laser treatment significantly enhanced skin absorption and follicular delivery of antialopecia drugs, suggesting a potential laser-assisted approach to treat alopecia.

This review updates the protective effects and molecular mechanisms of melatonin against ultraviolet-induced damage in human skin, reporting no new clinical findings.

This article provides an overview of recent discoveries about steroidogenic enzymes involved in androgenetic alopecia but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that formulating raloxifene in nano-lipid carriers significantly enhanced its permeation and cytotoxicity against cancer cells compared to raw raloxifene.

In this study, a high-fat, high-cholesterol diet in atherosclerotic mice led to skin inflammation and hair problems, which could be reversed by inhibiting glycosphingolipid synthesis.
