This source describes how androgenic alopecia, or pattern hair loss, affects about 70% of men and is linked to factors like stress, hormonal imbalances, and lifestyle issues, which can also impact psychological well-being and potentially contribute to severe health conditions such as heart disease.

This case report suggests that using encapsulated retinol in polylysine may effectively treat actinic keratosis with minimal irritation, potentially providing a safer alternative for frequent use.

This study found that the F6 formulation of a hair tonic containing EDS and ATG extracts produced the most significant hair growth in rabbits, without causing skin irritation and remaining stable throughout the observation period.

In this study, Urtica dioica L. infusions were used to replace water in k-carrageenan hydrogels, resulting in stronger networks with reduced syneresis and altered textural properties, and the highest antioxidant potential was achieved with specific infusion conditions.

This review discusses the vast potential uses of persimmon beyond its dietary benefits, including applications in sustainability and new product development, but reports no new clinical outcomes.

In this review, Ziziphus lotus was reported to have multiple traditional uses and demonstrated various pharmacological properties in lab and animal studies, with over 181 identified bioactive compounds; however, clinical trials are needed to confirm its efficacy as a medicinal agent.

This review discusses the potential benefits of flavonoid-containing botanicals, such as Panax ginseng, in reducing hair loss and promoting hair growth, but reports no new experimental results.

This study suggests that guava leaf extract may inhibit hair loss by downregulating genes involved in androgen synthesis, potentially offering a natural alternative for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study concluded that extracts from fermented pumpkin peel and pulp, processed with Lactobacillus strains and kombucha, may serve as multifunctional cosmetic ingredients, offering antioxidant protection, anti-aging, and skin regeneration benefits by demonstrating cytoprotective effects and reducing inflammatory cytokines in cell assays.

This review highlights that extracts from *Hamamelis virginiana* (witch hazel) exhibit antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and wound-healing properties in various studies, showing promise for future therapeutic use in dermatology and cosmetology, particularly for skin treatments.

The researchers reported that a 5% Beta vulgaris L. extract nanogel showed better antialopecic activity in testosterone-induced alopecia in mice compared to a 2.5% concentration.

This study found that PDLLA filler treatment may help combat age-related hair thinning by reducing oxidative stress and enhancing hair follicle function in both cell and animal models.

This study found that the combination of TTNPB and CHIR99021 enhanced the derivation of highly advanced neural stem cells from human pluripotent stem cells, with improved chromatin accessibility and neuroectodermal gene expression, and these cells successfully engrafted in rat hippocampi to ameliorate depression-like symptoms.

This review discusses the diverse industrial applications of hemp beyond traditional fiber uses, highlighting its phytochemical components with antioxidant and antimicrobial properties that are explored in agrochemicals, cosmetics, and food sectors.

In this study, PDLLA treatment in middle-aged mice was observed to enhance hair growth by increasing macrophage M2 polarization and hair follicle stem cell proliferation, potentially rejuvenating the skin's microenvironment and offering a novel approach for age-related hair loss.

This study found that compounds from *Tectona grandis* leaves showed moderate inhibition of steroid 5α-reductase, a factor in androgenetic alopecia, and exhibited anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting nitric oxide and pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-6 in vitro, suggesting potential dual-action benefits for AGA management.

In this exploratory randomized controlled trial, participants using a combination of Centella asiatica-derived extracellular vesicles with recombinant growth factors showed significant improvements in hair thickness, density, length, and reduced hair loss and scalp sebum content after 56 days, compared to placebo.

In this study, PA-011, a traditional Chinese medicine extract, was shown to improve hair growth in alopecia areata model mice by reducing skin inflammation and altering skin microbiota, indicating its potential therapeutic role for this condition.

In this study, exosomes derived from Iris germanica L. rhizomes (Iris-exosomes) were reported to alleviate oxidative stress and improve mitochondrial function in human follicle dermal papilla cells by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, suggesting potential benefits for hair loss treatment.

In this randomized, double-blind study, a shampoo containing Plantago asiatica L. significantly improved hair thickness and density while reducing hair loss over 12 weeks in adults compared to a placebo.

In this study, aqueous and aqueous-alcoholic extracts of Ajuga reptans showed promising hepatoprotective and wound-healing properties, with significant effects observed in experimental models, suggesting potential for development into official medicinal products pending further research.

In this study, zinc oxide nanoparticles were synthesized using a sustainable method from the Lepidium sativum L. plant, and incorporating these nanoparticles into Sunblock Lotion significantly increased its sun protection factor.

In this study, Iris germanica L. rhizome-derived exosomes were found to reduce oxidative stress, enhance antioxidant enzyme transcription, and restore cellular function in human epidermal keratinocytes, suggesting potential protective effects against oxidative-stress-induced skin damage.

This study found no statistically significant relationship between androgenic alopecia and the PON1 ML55 and QR192 genetic polymorphisms, despite a higher frequency of the PON 55 L allele in patients.

This study found that gels containing glycyrrhizic acid and aqueous Glycyrrhiza glabra extract significantly reduced underarm hair growth in terms of area, thickness, length, and number compared to their gel bases.

This research reported that KDML105 bran extract demonstrated antioxidant activities, reduced nitric oxide production, and influenced gene expression related to the hair cycle in cultured dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential as an anti-hair loss agent by supporting the anagen phase and angiogenesis.

This study observed that dissolving microneedles made from PVP-K90 and HPMC E50, incorporating Oryza sativa L. extract complex, showed enhanced transfollicular skin penetration and maintained safety for keratinocytes, with the P25H5 formulation demonstrating faster dissolution and greater effectiveness.

This study identified that the biosynthetic pathways for coumestans in Eclipta prostrata are derived from acetate and shikimate pathways, while phenylpropanoid biosynthesis is exclusively from the shikimate pathway.

This paper reviewed studies from 2019 to 2025 on the use of olive oil and other derivatives from the European olive tree for skin, hair, and nail care, noting their roles in wound healing and skin aging while highlighting a favorable safety profile.
