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 review article proposes a possible skin-gut-fibrosis axis, suggesting that gut microbial metabolites may influence the development of keloids and hypertrophic scars by affecting immune responses and fibrotic signaling pathways, although direct evidence in skin fibrosis remains limited.

This review discusses targeting gut microbiota modulation as a promising strategy for osteoarthritis prevention and management but reports no new clinical findings.

Data-driven methods can help understand microbiota's role in diseases and develop personalized treatments.

This study found that certain gut microbiota are linked with androgenetic alopecia, identifying both risk and protective microbial factors, which could inform targeted probiotic strategies for managing AGA.

This study reported that mannan oligosaccharides improved the fur quality, immune response, antioxidant status, and gut microbiota of fur-growing raccoon dogs, suggesting they could potentially replace antibiotics in their diet.

This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia had increased scalp microbial diversity and reduced Staphylococcus abundance, particularly in the frontal and vertex regions, suggesting this dysbiosis as a sensitive indicator of AGA.

This review highlights the mixed roles of testosterone in COVID-19, noting both potential benefits through anti-inflammatory effects and risks due to increased virus entry, with low testosterone linked to increased severity.

This study found that multimetal starvation by the immune protein calprotectin triggers unique regulatory responses in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, beyond those seen with individual metal shortages.

This study proposed a new approach to combat leishmaniasis by targeting host proteins rather than the parasite itself, identifying eight existing drugs as potential treatments despite not having been previously tested on leishmaniasis.

This study suggests that a specific short sequence repeat in Malassezia restricta may be linked to increased colonization and the development or exacerbation of androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, researchers observed that Malassezia species show different lipid metabolism and growth patterns depending on pH, with slightly acidic conditions promoting beneficial lipid bio-conversion for skin health, while neutral pH resulted in lower growth and lipid content, potentially negatively impacting the skin.

This review discusses the current research and development of mannosylerythritol lipids, particularly focusing on their potential commercial applications in cosmetics; it reports no new results.

In this study, dihydrotestosterone increased proliferation and decreased IL-6 production in in-vitro fibroblasts from hereditary gingival fibromatosis and normal gingiva, effects partially reversed by anti-androgens.

This review discusses the advancements enabled by intravital microscopy in understanding host-parasite interactions in living animals and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that using a shampoo containing heat-killed probiotics, GMNL-653, led to decreased dandruff and sebum production and increased hair growth in human participants, with observed microbiota shifts including changes in M. globosa and M. restricta abundance.

This article examines the limitations of using large databases for epidemiological research, highlighting the risk of spurious associations due to data quality issues and insufficient adjustment for multiple comparisons, and reports no new results.

This study suggests that Isaria cicadae Miquel rice fermentation extract may enhance regenerative wound healing of hair follicles in mouse skin through the Hippo pathway mechanism.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that using cyanoacrylate glue effectively reduces microbial contamination in biopsy samples from the skin surface of wild roe deer, offering valuable insights for human hair follicle microbiome research despite the nonhuman model.

This study observed that pancreatic cancer-related skin lesions in mice are linked to microbiota imbalances, specifically noting changes in the abundance of certain bacterial genera, which may offer potential diagnostic or therapeutic targets for managing skin complications in humans with pancreatic cancer.

This review discusses the potential health benefits of probiotics as a "Bio-Therapy" in food and medicine, noting that more research is needed to fully understand their mechanisms and effectiveness.

This study found that restoring the skin microbiome significantly improved hair growth and skin condition in androgenic alopecia model mice by modulating the immune-inflammatory balance, highlighting the potential of bacterial-based therapies for hair loss.

In this study, the researchers found that their conductive bio-harvesting tonic enhanced hair follicle proliferation and delayed regression with electric stimulation and the antifungal agent 6-pentyl-α-pyrone in both mice and human hair follicle tests.

This review discusses the molecular mechanisms by which oncogenic viruses contribute to cancer development through manipulation of host cellular functions and highlights the need for further research into virus-associated cancers, reporting no new results.

This study found that the RpoN/RpoS pathway regulates gene expression in Borrelia burgdorferi, influencing its ability to persist in mammals and adapt to different hosts.

This study engineered a bioluminescent yeast strain responsive to androgenic chemicals, demonstrating rapid and sensitive detection suitable for high-throughput screening and environmental monitoring.

This article reviews historical and recent developments related to toxic shock syndrome (TSS), emphasizing the increase in cases among young women using tampons, and calls for new research tools but does not report new results.

This study found that loliolide enhanced hair growth-related functions in 3D dermal papilla spheroids by activating AKT/β-catenin signaling pathways, with increased expression of related growth factors and genes.

This study found that the S. epidermidis A/C lineage is more pathogenic due to its metabolic and genomic versatility, which allows it to adapt quickly from a commensal to a pathogenic lifestyle.

This study demonstrated that human hair shafts can inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria but have no effect on Gram-negative bacterial growth, offering insights into hair and scalp health.
