This study found that the creation of hair follicle lumens in mice is driven by the outward migration of keratin 79-positive cells, suggesting a novel mechanism for generating hollow cores in hair follicles.

This study observed that the ethyl acetate extract of Equisetum debile showed high activity against 5α-reductase and lipid peroxidation with no cytotoxicity on dermal papilla cells.

In this study, higher expression levels of aromatase and steroidogenic acute regulatory protein were correlated with increased estrogen synthesis and fewer hair follicles in human skin, suggesting a link to elastic fiber formation and hair growth.

This review discusses the challenges in diagnosing tinea capitis and highlights the need for laboratory confirmation and systemic treatment due to the limited effectiveness of topical antifungals; no new clinical results are presented.

This study found that Ldh activity in hair follicle stem cell-mediated squamous cell carcinoma is not necessary for tumorigenesis, as its modulation did not affect the cancer's development or characteristics.

In this study, experimentally induced weight loss in merino sheep led to a decrease in wool fiber diameter and increased expression of certain high sulfur and glycine-tyrosine proteins, potentially impacting wool quality and industry preferences.

This study found that human hair follicle dermal cells, specifically dermal sheath cells, can serve as an alternative and potentially superior cell source for constructing the dermal component of bioengineered skin in both in vitro and in vivo settings.

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 local androgen biosynthesis and metabolism in human sebaceous glands play a crucial role in sebum synthesis and secretion.

This study found that microencapsulation combined with iontophoresis can significantly enhance the delivery of minoxidil sulphate to hair follicles, suggesting a synergetic approach for topical drug targeting.

This study observed significant inter- and intra-individual variability in serum testosterone levels among women treated with subcutaneous testosterone implants, suggesting that therapy should be guided by clinical response rather than single serum measurements.

This article discusses how racial essentialism impacts health professions education by increasing prejudice and reducing empathy, and it suggests reforms to emphasize racism as a cause of health inequity, without presenting new research data.

In this scoping review, researchers found that while some dietary approaches may help improve psoriasis symptoms—particularly in those with obesity or coeliac disease—the overall evidence is limited, and larger studies are necessary to identify effective diets for the broader psoriasis population.

This study found that low serum testosterone and elevated serum oestrone in men with cirrhosis are associated with worse liver disease and adverse health outcomes, suggesting oestrone as a potential ill health marker.

This review discusses the challenges in measuring testosterone for assessing androgen excess in women and emphasizes the importance of quality control in laboratory methods, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Prosopis farcta is a rich source of phenolic compounds with strong antioxidant activity, suggesting its potential for use in food, beverage, feed, and pharmaceutical applications.

This study developed and validated a reliable method to measure finasteride levels in human plasma, which was successfully used to assess its pharmacokinetics after a 5 mg dose in healthy volunteers.

This study observed that aging leads to significant structural and biological changes in the scalp's hair follicle environment in women, which may affect hair growth.

This review highlights the promising potential of microemulsions and nanoemulsions in (trans)dermal drug delivery, noting a gap in understanding their distinct mechanisms and composition-related effects on skin permeability, while emphasizing the limited clarity on mesostructures and cosolvent impacts.

This case report describes a 47-year-old woman who experienced reversible curling of her hair during treatment with valproic acid, suggesting potential side effects on hair texture.

This review highlighted the pharmacological potential of Mor, noting its protective effects on the kidneys, liver, bones, nervous system, heart, digestive system, skin, and lungs, as well as its anti-obesity and anti-inflammatory properties, revealing areas for future research.

In this research, caffeine's versatile pharmacological actions were highlighted, demonstrating its stimulant, bronchodilator, diuretic, and potential anticancer effects through interactions with adenosine receptors, phosphodiesterase, and renal tubules, revealing valuable insights for drug development and therapeutic applications in medicine.

This study found that α-13′-carboxychromanol significantly accelerated wound healing and improved tissue quality in a mouse model, especially when delivered with bacterial nanocellulose under diabetic conditions.

This study identified proteins that are differentially expressed in balding versus non-balding dermal papilla cells, potentially aiding the understanding and treatment of androgenetic alopecia.

This study introduced a novel nonsteroidal androgen receptor antagonist that effectively controls sebum production in the golden Syrian hamster ear model through targeted follicular delivery.

This study reported that among 10 tested 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazole compounds, compound 4c showed the highest activity against cancer cell lines, with a 95.37% average growth rate.

This article discusses fluconazole's pharmacological and physicochemical properties and methods for its analysis, but reports no new clinical results.

This study demonstrated that an LC/MS-MS method could effectively detect and quantify the vitamin B3 vitamer nicotinamide in human hair, suggesting its potential use for long-term deficiency examination.

This study evaluated the thrombolytic potential of Moringa oleifera leaves and flowers, finding significant in vitro clot lysis activity at a concentration of one mg/ml, which suggests possible use in preventing athero-thrombotic cardiovascular diseases, although further research is needed to identify the active components.

This study found that the Foxn1(-/-) nude phenotype significantly influences epithelial progeny in skin, with notable changes in stem cell niches not achievable in other models.
