This review discusses the physiology of hair follicles, their disorders, and the principles behind developing treatments, reporting no new results.

This study found that foot shock stress prolonged the telogen stage and delayed anagen induction in the hair cycle of non-depilated mice, potentially through stress-induced actions of substance P.

In this study on a murine model, researchers observed that a 5% minoxidil solution reduced stress-induced changes in hair growth, suggesting its potential for managing stress-related hair loss in humans.

This study found that both ciclosporin A and topical therapy were effective in reducing alopecia and scaling in dogs with idiopathic sebaceous adenitis, with evidence suggesting improved outcomes when both treatments are combined.

This study found that subcutaneous injections of guanethidine or 6-hydroxydopamine induced premature hair growth in mice, suggesting a role for sympathetic nerves in hair growth control.

In this retrospective study, anti-tuberculous agents, likely rifampicin, were effective adjunctive therapies for a chalazion, coinciding with spontaneous drainage in a patient with rosacea.

This review discusses the multifaceted roles of hair follicles in skin health, including potential contributions to skin neoplasias, and reports no new results.

This review discusses the impact of various external factors like cosmetics, traction, and radiation on hair health and color, but reports no new findings.

This paper reviews the role of the telomere-telomerase system in cellular ageing and cancer, discussing potential therapies but reporting no new experimental results.

This study found that activin B promotes the initiation and development of hair follicles in both cultured and neonatal mouse skin models.

In this study, topical application of Cyclosporin A on mice skin induced hair growth by transitioning follicles from telogen to anagen, but no effect was observed on cultured human hair follicles.

In this study, transplanted hair follicles from different body sites showed changes in morphology and immune status, suggesting their ability to adapt and function in new recipient areas such as the scalp or eyebrows.

This study suggests that oral and topical tacrolimus may effectively treat psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and hair growth disorders, although results are mostly based on small or animal studies.

This review explores the molecular controls of hair follicle cycling and highlights the challenge of developing effective treatments for common hair disorders without providing new clinical results.

This review summarizes 19 patents filed since 2000 for treating or preventing chemotherapy-induced alopecia, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study examined a 7-year-old girl with trichomegaly of the eyelashes, showing no significant underlying or observable cause, suggesting a spontaneous occurrence.

In this review, the authors examine the causes, risk factors, and management strategies for chemotherapy-induced hair loss, highlighting its psychological impact and underscoring the role of healthcare providers, especially nurses, in supporting patients through this distressing side effect.

This review summarizes existing knowledge on androgen receptor activity in breast cancer and reports no new clinical findings, with emphasis on therapies targeting androgen signaling in specific BC subtypes.

This study found that Atlantic croaker nuclear androgen receptors AR1 and AR2 have different binding affinities for androgens, suggesting that they may mediate distinct physiological actions in teleosts.

This study found that the heat shock cognate protein Hsc70 was differentially expressed by dihydrotestosterone treatment in SV40-transformed dermal papilla cells, suggesting its involvement in androgen action on these cells.

This chapter provides an overview of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, discussing its biological and clinical aspects, current experimental models and treatments, and calls for improved understanding to prevent and manage it.

This study found that applying dexamethasone to mice induced catagen-like follicle changes significantly earlier and more consistently than a vehicle, such changes being useful for studying hair follicle regression.

This review discusses the role of immune privilege collapse in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata, emphasizing the potential for therapeutic manipulation of hair bulb immune privilege to offer new treatment options, and reports no new results.

This review discusses advances in protecting against chemotherapy-induced alopecia and reports no new clinical results; calcitriol and cyclosporine A emerged as promising agents in animal models with broader efficacy across multiple chemotherapy drugs.

This review discusses the role of the immune niche in hair follicle regeneration and its impact on different forms of alopecia, highlighting research gaps and potential therapeutic strategies.

Finasteride can treat prostatic haematuria, but its use is controversial.

This study found that human mesenchymal stem cells overexpressing JAM-A improved hair follicle structure and hair formation in mice by reducing abnormalities such as curved and zigzagged follicles.

This review explores how radiation-induced hair graying can be used as a model to study the mechanisms behind hair graying, focusing on cellular senescence and potential therapeutic targets to address age-related changes. Results are not provided.

This study discusses the potential of targeting 11β-HSD1 for treating metabolic syndrome and highlights emerging promising data from human trials on selective 11β-HSD1 inhibitors.

This review explores the potential of selective 11β-HSD1 inhibitors to improve insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetes, emphasizing the need for more clinical research and reports no new clinical results.
