Minoxidil boosts hair growth by undergoing a process in hair follicles and certain skin cells, and by increasing the production of compounds essential for hair growth and maintenance.

This Cochrane review found no clear superiority among treatments for central serous chorioretinopathy, with low-dose photodynamic therapy, supplements, and eplerenone showing slightly higher probabilities of improving visual acuity, but evidence remains uncertain due to biases and small study sizes.

This rapid review found that health-related videos on TikTok often contain questionable information, with higher content quality observed in videos produced by healthcare providers compared to general users.

This review discusses the use of CDK4/6 inhibitors with endocrine therapy in treating women with HR+ HER2- advanced breast cancer, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This article discusses the structures surrounding hair follicles and introduces aspects like follicle groups and the dermal sheath, but it reports no new research findings.

This study presents a new method using UPLC-ESI-MS/MS for analyzing the constituents of a medicinal herbal complex extract, which includes herbs traditionally used to prevent hair loss and promote hair growth; no clinical results were reported.

This study discusses hormonal changes in gastroesophageal reflux disease that may affect sebaceous gland secretion but does not report new clinical results, suggesting a need for collaborative research in gastroenterology and dermatology.

This study developed a humanized scalp model in mice which demonstrated that transplanted cultured human hair follicle dermal cells contributed to the restoration of damaged hair follicles.

This study found that finasteride gel 0.25% significantly decreased hair growth in women with idiopathic hirsutism over six months without any reported side effects.

In this study, the authors concluded that a hydrolyzed eggwhite protein treatment promoted the reconnection of disulfide bonds in excessively bleached hair, after reduction and oxidation processes in permanent waving.

Hormones cause hair loss by affecting cell growth and weakening cell attraction.

Finasteride metabolism varies by age, sex, and P450 inducers, with males processing it faster.

This review suggests that mesenchymal stem cells' therapeutic effects might be due to bioactive substances they release, rather than the cells themselves, highlighting the potential of the MSC secretome as a novel, cell-free therapeutic approach.

In this study, researchers found that sweet potato shochu oil promotes hair growth in both human follicle dermal papilla cells and C3H mice. The oil contains components like ethyl palmitate, ethyl linoleate, and ethyl α-linolenate, which were key contributors to its hair growth-inducing effects.

This study found that Rab27a and Rab27b play opposite roles in hair growth, with Rab27a knockdown suppressing and Rab27b knockdown promoting hair growth in models.

In this study, aleglitazar and its metabolite M6 were evaluated for safety in non-clinical settings, revealing organ-targeting effects common to PPAR agonists but no significant tumor increase in rat carcinogenicity studies, supporting progression to Phase 3 clinical trials.

This review discusses pumpkin seed oil as a potential treatment for androgenetic alopecia but reports no clinical results on its effects on frontal hair loss; it emphasizes the need for further research.

This study found that using a bicomponent reduction system with TGA and DTDG for hair straightening limited hair damage by forming only thiol groups, while a TGA-only system formed more damaging mixed disulfide groups.

This study found that adding dithiodiglycolic acid to the hair straightening process decreased chemical damage and preserved the structural integrity of the hair matrix compared to using thioglycolic acid alone.

This study used rapid-freezing immunocytochemistry to successfully map the ultrastructural localization of hair keratins in human scalp hair, primarily finding them in macrofibrils in the cortex and endocuticle.

This study found that a hair tonic increased hair growth and reduced resting hair ratios in men with alopecia.

This study found that phenylbutazone and fluocinolone acetonide have similar anti-redness effects in both haired and hairless animals, making hairless rats a potential alternative for testing without needing depilation.

This study concluded that a liquid serum formulation delivered two fluorescent dyes to deeper follicular regions more effectively than nanoparticle systems.

This study explores the development of a liposomal gel containing andrographolide from the plant Andrographis paniculata to potentially improve psoriasis management by enhancing drug delivery and reducing side effects of conventional treatments.

This study found that recombinant human hair keratin proteins K31 and K81 show greater potential for inducing skin cell differentiation compared to natural keratin coatings.

This study found that rubbing increased caffeine permeation into skin primarily via hair follicles, especially when applied against the natural hair direction.

This study found that human hair follicles demonstrated a dose-dependent response to light in an ex vivo photoepilation model, which could predict the clinical efficacy and permanency of light-based hair removal devices.

Researchers created a reliable method to measure dexpanthenol and resorcinol in hair products.

This study identified Armillaria gallica and Armillaria cepistipes as the most common symbiotic species with Polyporus umbellatus in China, and reported genetic diversity among their genotypes.

This study found that rice bran supercritical CO₂ extract was classified as a non-irritant for ocular use but a moderate irritant for dermal use in rabbits and guinea pigs.
