This study suggests that the MAEG protein may facilitate epithelial–mesenchymal interactions during hair follicle development by binding to RGD-binding integrins like α8β1.

This study found that applying BMP2 stimulated limited regeneration of the amputated P2 bone in mice, but only when applied during a specific "regeneration window" after injury.

In this study, researchers isolated multipotent stem cells from elderly human epidermis and showed that they could differentiate into neurons using TAT-VHL peptide, suggesting potential for regenerative therapies.

This study found that finasteride 1 mg per day improved hair growth and slowed hair loss in Japanese men with male pattern hair loss compared to lower doses and placebo.

This narrative review found that Telogen Effluvium significantly affects women in Brazil due to its psychological impact and limited access to treatment, exacerbated by economic and healthcare disparities.

This review discusses fixed drug eruption (FDE) potentially linked to finasteride and emphasizes dermatologists' need to recognize its possible occurrence due to the drug's widespread use, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that using a standardized protocol with microspheres of approximately 1.5 micrometers enhances penetration into hair follicles, particularly when skin is treated with cyanoacrylate skin surface stripping.

This review discusses the various treatment options for male and female pattern hair loss and provides no new clinical results; the authors outline the most effective strategies based on existing evidence.

This article discusses the development of an evidence-based guideline for treating androgenetic alopecia and reports no new research results.

This study found that dutasteride increased hair growth and restoration in men with androgenetic alopecia more effectively than finasteride and was well tolerated over 24 weeks.

This study reported no significant difference in efficacy or sexual dysfunction risk between 5α-reductase inhibitors and placebo for androgenetic alopecia, suggesting that dutasteride 0.5 mg may be considered pending further research.

This review highlights recent advances in understanding how the extracellular matrix regulates epidermal stem cell fate, emphasizing the importance of the hair follicle stem cell niche, but reports no new empirical findings.

This study found that low-level laser therapy was the most effective non-surgical treatment for androgenetic alopecia, although the overall quality of evidence supporting various therapies was generally low.

This review examines how caloric restriction could promote autophagy to rejuvenate aging stem cells, though the precise molecular mechanisms remain unclear.

This study found that exposure to finasteride impaired spermatogenesis in male Xenopus laevis by affecting sex-specific feedback mechanisms in the hypothalamus–pituitary–gonad axis.

This article argues that lineage labeling with genetic markers is the gold standard for identifying epithelial stem cells, contrary to the view that in vitro methods alone are sufficient.

This meta-analysis found that treating male androgenetic alopecia with 5α-reductase inhibitors increases the risk of sexual dysfunction, with a statistically significant risk for finasteride but not for dutasteride.

This paper discusses the first reported case of post-finasteride syndrome in a long-term dermatotrichology setting, occurring in a 25-year-old male after dutasteride treatment, and highlights possible links to mental health disorders.

This study suggests that mammalian hair follicles may serve as a viable and non-invasive system for diagnosing traumatic brain injury, reflecting similar molecular responses observed in other tissues.

Blocking adenosine A2B receptor may prevent or treat hearing loss.

This study found that post-finasteride syndrome patients showed a tissue-specific methylation pattern of the SRD5A2 promoter in cerebrospinal fluid, potentially affecting neuroactive steroid levels and related behavioral symptoms.

This case report describes the first known instance of fixed drug eruption linked to finasteride, confirmed through an oral challenge test that reproduced symptoms at the same skin site.

This study found that nestin-negative hair follicle stem cells can differentiate into neural stem cell-like cells, but not mature neurons, through a multi-step neuro-induction process.

This study investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of a 940nm diode laser in Wistar rats with carrageenan-induced arthritis and found that a 74J/cm² energy density significantly reduced edema and restored function, whereas 171J/cm² neared thermal exposure limits for the skin.

This study concluded that finasteride 1 mg does not significantly affect the metabolism of omeprazole in young healthy Japanese male extensive or poor metabolizers for CYP2C19.

In this study, a 13-year-old boy developed temporary pressure alopecia from wearing orthodontic headgear, which resolved after discontinuation, highlighting a rare side effect that can affect psychosocial wellbeing.

This study suggests that low level laser therapy may promote hair cell regeneration in rat cochlear explants following gentamicin-induced damage.

This study explores the complex mechanisms of skin aging, including cellular senescence and disrupted communication, and highlights rejuvenation strategies like gene expression rewiring and microbiome modulation, offering potential frameworks for regenerative therapies and precise interventions in skin and systemic aging.

This review suggests that dermatological cosmetic procedures can be safely performed on dark-complexioned skin with appropriate treatment adjustments, highlighting the need for careful consideration to prevent adverse effects.

Finasteride and minoxidil are effective, low-risk treatments for male hair loss, and patient education on these therapies is important.
