Cathepsin L deficiency causes hair and skin issues in mice.

In this study, low-level laser therapy showed no statistically significant improvements in hair growth measures, despite some patients experiencing increases in terminal hairs and shaft diameter.

This review explores low-level light therapy's potential as a noninvasive treatment for various forms of alopecia, noting its promising results in hair regrowth and density but highlighting the need for standardized protocols and further research.

This study generated a transcriptomic map of human hair follicle compartments, providing a database for identifying compartment-specific gene expression which may aid in developing targeted treatments for hair follicle disorders.

This review discusses the clinical and trichoscopic features of lichen planopilaris and notes its potential underdiagnosis prior to hair transplant, but it reports no new findings.

This study found that loss of the Pten gene in Lgr5+ hair follicle stem cells promoted squamous cell carcinoma formation through the Akt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

In this prospective study, individuals with androgenetic alopecia using a home-use low-level laser therapy helmet for 48 weeks experienced significant increases in hair density and thickness, with reported improvements consistent across sexes and no device-related adverse events.

This study found that adding procapil to minoxidil was more effective than minoxidil alone in improving hair count, patient satisfaction, and dermatologist assessment scores for treating androgenetic alopecia over 12 months.

Low-level light therapy significantly increased hair density and thickness in people with hair loss, but they didn't notice a difference.

In this study, researchers found that a cold atmospheric plasma-activated hydrogel containing interleukin-2 significantly enhanced hair regeneration in a depilated mouse model, promoting larger hair follicles and faster hair growth phase transition, suggesting it as a potential treatment for hair loss.

This study found that bi-weekly 1550nm low-level laser therapy significantly improved hair loss conditions and scalp health in participants, suggesting its potential as an effective non-invasive treatment option.

In a rat model of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, this study found that low-level laser treatment significantly accelerated hair regrowth without affecting the efficacy of chemotherapy.

This study found that both scalp cooling systems and chemical cooling caps effectively reduced chemotherapy-induced alopecia in early breast cancer patients, with scalp cooling showing better early efficacy but chemical cooling providing greater psychological and quality of life benefits.

This review discusses the effectiveness of low-level laser therapy for androgenetic alopecia, finding significant increases in hair density and growth for individuals treated with this method.

This abstract discusses the FDA approval of Latisse (bimatoprost) for increasing eyelash growth in patients with eyelash hypotrichosis and highlights its efficacy while noting unresolved effectiveness in certain conditions and potential side effects.

This study found that l-carnitine stimulated hair growth in vitro by promoting proliferation and reducing apoptosis in human scalp hair follicles, suggesting potential as a treatment for hair loss.

This article highlights that a low suspicion for tinea capitis in adults with scaling and hair loss may delay diagnosis and treatment, urging confirmation through KOH, fungal culture, or biopsy.

This study found that prolonged acute tissue expansion notably increased the amount of scalp tissue removed during scalp reduction surgery in three patients.

This case report describes an adult initially diagnosed with alopecia areata but was later found to have tinea capitis, successfully treated with terbinafine and ketoconazole shampoo.

In this study, free flaps, specifically the ALT-free tissue transfer, were found to be safe and reliable for reconstructing large scalp defects requiring both scalp and skull repairs, with consistent results observed in clinical applications.

Collagen CLR and placenta extract may help treat diffuse hair loss.

This study reported that four patients with lichen planopilaris showed dramatic improvement, including symptom reduction and hair regrowth, after treatment with low-level light therapy.

This retrospective study reported that in HER-2-negative metastatic breast cancer patients, anlotinib combined with taxane/capecitabine showed superior disease control rate, progression-free survival, and overall survival compared to bevacizumab plus chemotherapy, with both treatments having tolerable safety profiles.

This study found that indirect treatment with cold atmospheric plasma showed promise for improving androgenetic alopecia in patients, laying the groundwork for longer trials to assess its efficacy.

This article reviews lichen planopilaris, a chronic scarring alopecia, and explores recent treatment developments, but it reports no new clinical results.

This guideline review discusses updated evidence-based recommendations for managing tinea capitis, with a focus on accurate diagnosis, effective treatment, and prevention strategies, but reports no new clinical results.

This study presents three cases where tinea capitis in children mimicked cicatricial alopecia and explores host and fungal factors that may influence the disease's presentation and treatment.

This review examines existing evidence on scalp cooling systems to prevent or reduce chemotherapy-induced hair loss in cancer patients, noting promising results and their increasing adoption in clinical practice.

This randomized controlled trial found that topical 5% minoxidil was more effective than topical 5% Procapil in treating androgenetic alopecia after six months, as indicated by patient self-assessment, global photography, and researcher evaluation, with statistically significant differences favoring minoxidil.
