HIV can cause various nail and hair disorders, important for early diagnosis and treatment.

High testosterone to epitestosterone ratio in hair could predict male-pattern baldness.

This review discusses the potential persistent adverse effects associated with 5α reductase inhibitor treatment for androgenetic alopecia but provides no new clinical results; it emphasizes the importance of discussing these risks with patients.

This study quantifies the follicular uptake of tea tree oil in bovine udder skin, with microemulsion showing the highest concentration among different formulations tested.

In this study, procyanidin B-2 and C-1 were found to promote hair growth by selectively inhibiting protein kinase C, supporting their potential use for hair-growing activity.

This study found that Ganoderma lucidum extracts reduced prostate enlargement and improved symptoms in testosterone-treated rats, suggesting potential benefits for managing benign prostatic hyperplasia.

In this study, osthenol was identified as a highly potent inhibitor of 5alpha-reductase type I in LNCaP cells, significantly outperforming finasteride.

This research review found that platelet-rich plasma treatment generally produced successful hair regrowth in both androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata, despite study differences that limited direct statistical comparison.

This study found that unsaturated fatty acids are more abundant in the cortex of human hair than on its surface, and steryl glycoside-like lipids may help bind the cuticle to the cortex.

This study found that a combination of low-dose isotretinoin and oral azithromycin pulse effectively treats severe acne with an acceptable side effect profile and relatively low relapse rates.

This study found that finasteride 1 mg daily decreased 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone levels and improved hair growth in younger men with androgenetic alopecia, with higher initial hormone levels predicting better response.

This study identified the N-(iodopropenyl) derivative 13 as a promising candidate for development as a radioiodinated androgen receptor ligand due to its binding affinity.

This review discusses the ethnobotanical uses and phytochemistry of Plumbago zeylanica L., highlighting its potential pharmacological benefits for conditions such as diabetes and cardiovascular disorders, but reports no new experimental findings.

This review summarizes recent progress in human hair follicle bulge cell research, particularly the characterization and isolation of these stem cells, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that alcoholic extracts of Cinchona succirubra, Dictamnus dasycarpus, Brassica juncea, and Sophora flavescens promoted hair growth in 5-week-old mice.

This study demonstrates that human hair follicle stem cells can be cultured and expanded without major changes to their phenotypes, which suggests potential for use in regenerative medicine.

This review discusses the roles of epithelial-mesenchymal interactions and dermal papilla in hair follicle growth and cycling, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses topical and oral treatments for acne in children and provides guidance on tailoring these treatments according to acne severity, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that 15-dPGJ2 promotes apoptosis in human follicular keratinocytes, suggesting its potential role in developing hair loss prevention treatments through DP2 antagonism.

This study found that involucrin likely plays a key role in forming the cornified material of the medulla and inner root sheath of human hair, contributing to its mechanical strength.

In this study, 5-α reductase inhibitors were not significantly linked to increased rhabdomyolysis risk, but they may raise the risk of myopathy and myositis in men aged 66 and older.

This study found that activating SHH signaling in EPCs enhances angiogenesis to aid in healing pressure ulcers through the PI3K/AKT/eNOS pathway, indicating SHH signaling as a potential target for treatment.

Minoxidil solution applied twice daily improved hair growth in patients with Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis due to LIPH gene issues, with mild side effects.

This case report describes a canine with alopecia areata universalis treated with oral ciclosporin, which was associated with hair regrowth, but some areas remained hairless after 17 months.

The document provides a practical guide for diagnosing and treating various types of hair loss.

This study found that when metabolism changes and extracellular glucose decreases, hippocampal CA3 neurons release ATP, which is converted to adenosine and reduces neuron excitability, enhancing the seizure threshold.

This synthesis report details the successful development of a C-14 labeled isotopomer of LY300502, a 5α-reductase inhibitor, through a multi-step radiochemical process.

The researchers highlighted the nutritional benefits of kiwifruit, noting its high vitamin C content, dietary fiber, and potassium, as well as its wealth of phytochemicals and antioxidants, which may aid immune function, digestion, and potentially reduce chronic disease risk.

This study found that Mueller-Hinton Agar performed better than Dermasel Agar for antifungal susceptibility testing of feline dermatophytes, providing reliable susceptibility data for effective antifungal therapy.
