This study found that mycophenolate mofetil can enhance skin pigmentation in vitiligo models by activating the WNT signaling pathway and increasing melanin-related gene expression.

In this case report, a 28-year-old female developed allergic contact dermatitis from prolonged use of 5% topical minoxidil, suggesting that minoxidil itself may often be responsible for such reactions rather than propylene glycol.

This study measured the solubility of minoxidil in various solvents, finding the highest solubility in methanol and lowest in water, with solubility correlating to temperature.

In this study, melatonin-loaded Pickering emulsions stabilized by chitosan-dextran sulphate nanoparticles and enhanced with lecithin showed improved photostability, antioxidant activity, and follicular delivery in androgenic alopecia-affected rats, potentially rivaling commercial minoxidil for hair loss treatment.

This study observed that daily selenium sulfide shampoos successfully removed fungal spores hidden beneath the hair cuticle in patients infected with ectothrix Microsporum canis.

This study reports a case where cyclosporine effectively treated a 51-year-old woman with idiopathic follicular mucinosis resistant to other therapies, suggesting its potential as an option for refractory cases.

This paper highlights the significant role of silicones in hair conditioners, noting their ability to enhance smoothness and manageability while also protecting against damage. The authors emphasize the growing importance of developing silicone-free, eco-friendly alternatives to meet evolving consumer preferences.

This study found that skin exposure to toluene diisocyanate in mice creates immune-recognition reservoirs in the skin's stratum corneum and hair follicles, potentially leading to sensitization and allergic reactions.

In this case study, a man's hair and nail symptoms, following dental treatments, resolved with mesalazine therapy after investigating suspected clindamycin allergy and diagnosing mucosal changes.

This study found that minoxidil was released 50% less from creams than from lotions, with a similar release profile across different lotion formulations, suggesting a specific vehicle composition for topical use.

This study developed a chalcone-based molecule that significantly increased tyrosinase inhibition and solubility, showing potential as a safe and effective skin depigmenting and antiaging agent, with supportive epigenetic and antioxidant properties observed in vitro.

This study found that methanol is more effective than isopropanol at removing external cortisol from grizzly bear hair and suggests that the choice of solvent can influence hair cortisol concentration results.

This paper reviews the surface degradation of hair and describes how combining 18-MEA with specific surfactants can maintain hydrophobicity on bleached and weathered hair surfaces.

This review highlights the effectiveness of medicinal plants in treating symptoms of hair disorders, emphasizing their antifungal and antioxidant properties as supported by 23 selected studies.

This study suggests that combining monoammonium glycyrrhizinate/glycine/DL-methionine tablets with 5% carpronium chloride may reduce alopecia areata area more effectively than carpronium chloride alone, particularly in patients with allergic factors.

There's a growing resistance to the antibiotic mupirocin in children's skin infections caused by MRSA in New York.

In a retrospective study, researchers found that topical spironolactone improved tear film quality and reduced inflammation related to meibomian gland dysfunction and evaporative dry eye in patients, demonstrating good tolerability and suggesting it as a potential therapy for managing the condition.

The document concludes that various topical medications are effective for skin conditions but often cause skin irritation as a side effect.

In this study, researchers developed a precise and rapid method for simultaneously analyzing minoxidil and finasteride in local therapeutic formulations, ensuring that the excipients did not interfere, making it suitable for routine quality control.

This meta-analysis found that a combination of clobetasol, hydroxychloroquine, and N-acetylcysteine may be the most effective treatment approach for lichen planopilaris compared to other therapies.

This review discusses the adverse effects of hair care products, highlighting irritation dermatitis and allergic contact eczema due to common allergens like paraphenylenediamine and glycerol monothioglycolate, but reports no clinical results.

In this study, oral etretinate resulted in increased hair length and loss of beading in a childhood monilethrix case, while the scalp's keratosis pilaris persisted.

This study outlines that hair styling products, commonly used for temporary transformations, often contain ingredients like surfactants and fragrances that can cause contact dermatitis on the face and scalp.

This study investigated the use of methylene blue in a niosomal hydrogel for photodynamic treatment of acne and found that it led to significant improvement in inflammation compared to IPL treatment.

This study validated an HPLC-UV method to detect minoxidil in cosmetic products and found that 2 out of 9 analyzed products contained minoxidil, despite international regulations banning its inclusion due to potential systemic absorption.

This study found that a conditioner containing 18-MEA and SPDA can improve hair's smoothness and reduce flyaways, enhancing hair manageability.
