This review reports that the monosaccharide composition of polysaccharides significantly impacts their bioactivity, highlighting various roles for glucans, galactans, mannans, fructans, and pectin in immune regulation, antioxidant effects, and other biological functions.

This study found that DGAT1 exhibits additional acyltransferase activities in vitro, including MGAT, wax synthase, and ARAT activities, suggesting these could be relevant to its in vivo functions.

This study demonstrates that hair follicle bulge stem cells can transition into other stem cell compartments, indicating their role in maintaining both hair follicles and sebaceous glands.

This review highlights the potential of marine macroalgae as a largely untapped resource for developing new active ingredients in the cosmetic industry, emphasizing their role in supporting circular economy models by utilizing waste from other industrial sectors.

This review discusses factors affecting hair aging and the current pharmacological treatments for androgenetic alopecia, mentioning topical minoxidil and oral finasteride, but does not present new clinical findings.

This review discusses the role of Hedgehog signaling in epidermal and hair follicle development and its involvement in basal cell carcinoma, without reporting new empirical findings.

In this study, polydopamine emerged as a safe and effective alternative to traditional hair dyes like PPD for dyeing gray hair permanently, showing resistance to detergents and causing less toxicity and hair loss in mice.

This review discusses the chemical composition and traditional medicinal uses of Eruca sativa, particularly its potential applications in topical preparations for hair growth and treating skin infections, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses allergic reactions to pollen in dogs, cats, and horses and suggests that these animals' spontaneous allergies could serve as models for translational clinical studies applicable to human allergies.

In this study, researchers found that overexpression of the Hedgehog signaling effector Gli2 in mice led to odontogenic keratocysts development, implicating GLI transcription factors in human keratocyst pathogenesis.

This study found that applying a topical inhibitor of TGF-β1 may enhance scar maturation and improve the appearance of hypertrophic scars in a nude mouse model after two weeks.

This study found that manipulating prolactin levels in New Zealand Wiltshire sheep induces wool follicle growth cycles, revealing gene expression changes that suggest roles for specific genes in follicle function.

This study found that in vitro heat straightening of hair reduced THC and cocaine concentrations but increased CBN and BZE levels, suggesting heat conversion of these substances.

This study identified key natural medicinal materials used in traditional Chinese medicine across Taiwan for inducing lactation, highlighting Angelica sinensis as a primary core component in galactogenous prescriptions.

In this study, ginger peel polysaccharides modified with zinc reduced inflammation in zebrafish by altering cytokine expression, suggesting potential for treating chronic inflammation-related diseases.

This commentary discusses the potential of natural volatiles in medical aromatherapy, highlighting their ability to synergize with other drugs and modulate biological processes, but reports no new results.

This study found that the anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein plays a crucial role in maintaining hair follicle stem cell function and influences tissue regeneration and tumor formation in mice.

This study found that Gelidium corneum, a type of red seaweed, may serve as a promising source of bioactive compounds for skin health, showing photoprotective and healing properties in vitro and antioxidant and stability benefits in vivo when used in dermocosmetic formulations.

This review compiles EV proteomics data and reports that while MSC-derived EVs show promise in skin therapeutics, variability in protein cargo highlights the need for standardized methodologies in understanding process impacts.

In this study, animal model observations suggested that GLI1 expression may reduce cSCC initiation but is not involved in the tumor's aggressiveness.

This study found that aliphatic ester moieties in 16-formyl-17-methoxy dehydroepiandrosterone derivatives increased their potency as 5α-reductase type 2 inhibitors in vitro compared to finasteride.

This study found that injecting bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells and conditioned medium into mice promoted hair follicle stem cell proliferation and transition to active growth phases, suggesting potential clinical targets for hair loss treatment.

This study found that hair follicle stem cells in the hairpoor mouse, a model for Marie-Unna hypotrichosis, lose their quiescent state, leading to a disordered hair cycle and contributing to alopecia.

In this study, a hair wax containing propolis and Eruca sativa seed oil significantly improved hair growth in Wistar rats, increasing both the length and weight of newly grown hairs compared to controls.

In this study, PDLLA treatment in middle-aged mice was observed to enhance hair growth by increasing macrophage M2 polarization and hair follicle stem cell proliferation, potentially rejuvenating the skin's microenvironment and offering a novel approach for age-related hair loss.

This study found that incorporating Canavalia ensiformis lectin into alginate and carboxymethylcellulose films enhanced angiogenic factor expression, suggesting these biopolymer films could be an effective alternative for wound treatment.

This review discusses the role of dermal papilla cells in hair follicle formation and their potential use in cell therapy for hair loss, but reports no new research findings.

This study evaluated the 5α-reductase inhibitory effects of several Ayurvedic herbs and found that Eclipta alba exhibited the highest activity, suggesting its potential for use in treatments for androgenic disorders like alopecia.

This study compared auriculotherapy, Aslagh capsule, and metformin in women with PCOS, finding auriculotherapy significantly improved menstrual cycle duration and excess hair growth more than the other treatments, though all reduced these symptoms.
