This study found that 50-nm PLGA nanoparticles delivered with iontophoresis enhanced skin permeation of indomethacin in rats more effectively than 100-nm nanoparticles, suggesting improved targeting of hair follicles.

This study found that the contribution of the hair follicle pathway to skin permeation of chemicals can be predicted using lipophilicity, with hydrophilic chemicals showing greater permeation reduction from hair follicle plugging than lipophilic ones.

This study suggests that true binary and ternary inclusion complexes were formed between finasteride and 2-hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin, with or without the addition of specific polymers.

In this study, Geranium sibiricum L. extract promoted hair growth in vitro with human dermal papilla cells and in vivo in mice, outperforming minoxidil by proliferating cells and stimulating growth factor expression, suggesting its potential as a hair growth treatment.

This study found that Puerariae Flos extract inhibited testosterone 5α-reductase and promoted hair growth in mouse models, suggesting its potential use for treating androgenic alopecia.

This study found that polymeric nanoparticles retained more minoxidil and facilitated superior drug permeation compared to lipid nanoparticles, although premature drug release affected formulation performance.

This study found that pretreating mouse skin with microneedles significantly enhanced the hair growth inhibitory effect of eflornithine cream, likely by improving its skin permeation.

Non-viral vectors show promise for safe and effective CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing in treating diseases.

This study utilized magnetic resonance imaging to noninvasively visualize and differentiate skin structures in rat skin, finding a significant correlation between MRI data and histological areas.

This study found that incorporating 0.5% TPGS into topical minoxidil solutions enhanced hair growth in mice, although increasing TPGS to 2% decreased effectiveness.

This study found that surface-modified liquid crystalline nanoparticles significantly enhanced skin permeation of finasteride and dutasteride compared to unmodified nanoparticles, suggesting potential for improved treatment efficacy in androgenetic alopecia.

This study introduced a new adaptive microrhizotron for non-destructive observation of pepper root traits, finding that specific installation patterns significantly enhanced root interception probability while effectively measuring root architecture for plant research.

This study focused on designing a niosome formulation that encapsulates pumpkin seed oil for topical use, achieving high entrapment efficiency and stability over three months.

This study presents recombinant human hair keratins K31 and K81, observing novel nanostructures from their self-assembly and emphasizing disulfide crosslinking's role in this process.

This review discusses the role of platelet-rich plasma in assisted reproductive technology for enhancing endometrial receptivity and reports promising outcomes.

This study found that polymeric micelle nanocarriers delivered pharmacologically relevant amounts of spironolactone to the epidermis and upper dermis, with higher delivery to pilosebaceous units, suggesting potential for treating glucocorticoid-induced impaired wound healing and pilosebaceous androgen-related skin diseases.

In this study, UCMSC exosomes showed protective effects against cisplatin-induced hearing loss in mice by improving hearing and promoting cochlear tissue repair.

This review discusses the impact of air pollution on hair loss and sensitive scalp syndrome, evaluating possible causes and management strategies, but reports no new clinical results.

This study describes an analytical technique combining field-enhanced sample stacking with dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction, offering improved sensitivity for detecting finasteride and its metabolite in urine samples from patients treated for androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that adjusting plant growth conditions, such as the use of elicitors like yeast extract and methyl jasmonate, increased wedelolactone production in Eclipta alba cell suspension culture.

This study reported that polymeric nanofibers containing minoxidil sulphate showed effective encapsulation and stability, with minimal concentration loss over six months, making them potentially ideal for delivering this unstable drug in a more visually appealing and easier-to-apply form.

In this study, researchers developed a sensitive assay to measure the inhibition of steroid 5-α reductase (5AR) by chemicals like finasteride and dutasteride, revealing species-specific differences in inhibitor efficacy between human and fish cell lines.

This study identified seven compounds from Cercidiphyllum japonicum twig extracts, including a newly discovered flavonoid, marking the first time these specific compounds have been isolated from this genus.

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 oregonin, isolated from Alnus japonica, demonstrated strong antioxidant activity and apoptosis modulation in hair follicle cells, suggesting its potential as a natural ingredient for preventing hair loss in cosmetic products.

This study concluded that chitosan nanoparticles loaded with minoxidil effectively target hair follicles and reduce dermal exposure compared to iontophoresis, despite similar drug delivery potential to the follicles.

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.

In this case report, researchers described a 48-year-old man with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed a fungus ball (aspergilloma) within a tuberculosis cavity, a complication rarely reported in such patients, emphasizing the role of CT scans in diagnosis and the potential need for surgical intervention.

This study reports the development of a microemulsion using Momordica charantia extract, which demonstrated strong antioxidant and 5α-reductase inhibitory activity, potentially aiding hair loss management. The microemulsion was stable over 12 weeks, suggesting its future potential for cosmetic or pharmacological applications.

This research introduces WomenCare, a web-based system using a machine learning model to predict PCOD risk by evaluating factors like age, BMI, and lifestyle habits; it aims to help women monitor their health but is not a substitute for a professional diagnosis.
