This study reviewed and categorized dermatological drugs for pregnancy and lactation according to new FDA labeling guidelines, which replaced simplistic letter categories with detailed information, aiming to improve prescribing decisions by addressing both maternal and paternal reproductive potential.

This research found that a biodegradable fibrous membrane incorporating fibroblast-derived ECM accelerated wound healing and improved neovascularization in a mouse model.

This study found that vanillic acid from wheat bran promoted dermal papilla cell proliferation, potentially stimulating hair growth by activating the PI3K/Akt and Wnt/β-catenin pathways.

This study found that mackerel-derived fermented fish oil extract and its component DHA promote hair growth by activating anagen pathways in dermal papilla cells.

This study suggests that ethanol extracts from ten selected Korean herb medicines reduced inflammatory markers in a cell model and did not cause skin irritation in human testing, indicating potential cosmetic use for irritation prevention.

This study found that the humanin analogue HNG significantly promoted hair growth in vitro and in vivo by prolonging the anagen phase and inhibiting hair follicle cell apoptosis in mice.

This case report describes a 5-year-old boy with extensive epidermal nevus who experienced marked improvement using a topical calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate combination ointment.

The study found that balding scalps have more thin hairs and larger oil glands, which might contribute to skin conditions related to hair loss.

This study found that diphlorethohydroxycarmalol significantly increased prostaglandin $E_2$ synthesis in HaCaT human keratinocytes by upregulating COX-1 and COX-2 expression, suggesting potential benefits from elevated $PGE_2$ production.

This study found that a commercially available shampoo significantly increased hair counts and reduced hair shedding in Korean subjects with alopecia over 16 weeks.

This study found that myristoleic acid promotes dermal papilla cell proliferation and anagen signaling through autophagy, cell cycle progression, and activation of the Wnt/β-catenin and ERK pathways.

This study found that a new 12-point scale provided a more precise measurement system for evaluating hair damage and improvement after hair care product use compared to a 5-point scale.

This study found that 5-bromo-3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (BDB) promoted hair growth in rat vibrissa follicles by activating Wnt/β-catenin and autophagy pathways and inhibiting the TGF-β pathway in dermal papilla cells.

Wheat bran can boost hair growth by affecting cell cycle proteins and signaling pathways.

In this study, norgalanthamine was found to stimulate hair growth in cultured rat dermal papilla cells by activating the ERK 1/2, PI3K/AKT, and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways.

The authors reported that 4-O-methylhonokiol decreased TGF-β1-induced cell cycle arrest and oxidative stress markers in human keratinocyte cells, suggesting a potential protective role in TGF-β1-mediated cell cycle regulation.

In this study, researchers developed a new classification system for anterior hairline types among Asian males without androgenetic alopecia, finding MM, RM, and ML to be the most common types.

This study found that 70% ethanol extract of Houttuynia cordata promoted hair growth in laboratory cell models, suggesting potential use in developing hair care products.

Taking 5-alpha reductase inhibitors does not increase breast cancer risk in men.

This study found that ketoconazole-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles significantly improved skin permeation and retention compared to a drug suspension and marketed product, demonstrating enhanced delivery into deeper skin layers.

In this review, the authors discuss recent advancements in underwater adhesion technologies, specifically highlighting mussel-inspired catechol-based adhesives, which offer strong underwater bonding through various interfacial interactions and the influence of dopamine-modified polymeric tissue adhesives.

In this study, researchers developed an environmentally friendly hair coating from casein proteins and tannic acid, enhancing the tensile strength of virgin Asian hair by approximately 21% compared to untreated hair, while maintaining elasticity.

In this study, researchers investigated how 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) impacts hair follicle cells, finding that it delays hair growth by inhibiting angiogenesis and β-catenin signaling. This discovery could help develop treatments for chemotherapy-induced alopecia in cancer patients receiving 5-FU.

This study found that in male Wistar rats, finasteride administration reduced neural cellular activity markers and 5-alpha reductase type 2 expression in brain tissue, with some recovery occurring after drug withdrawal, unlike persistent 5-alpha reductase type 2 suppression.

This study in Singapore found that alopecia areata generally does not significantly impact the quality of life for pediatric patients and their families, with better outcomes observed in those with comorbidities like allergic rhinitis.

Multiple-wavelength radiation helps hair grow by boosting early hair follicle development.

This case report details the occurrence of alopecic scalp cysts in a young female following three weeks of isotretinoin treatment for acne, highlighting a potential side effect for clinicians to recognize.

This animal study found that finasteride, a 5-alpha reductase type 2 inhibitor, decreased dihydrotestosterone levels and c-Fos protein activation in the rat brain, but these effects may diminish after discontinuing the drug.
