This study found that shikimic acid- and maleate-based hair repair agents modified the structure of hair fibers, though they did not increase disulfide bridge content in the hair cortex.

This study reported that a bioderived melanoidin/tannic acid nanocomplex forms a durable, antioxidant-active coating on hair fibers, providing enhanced UV protection and improving tensile resilience by suppressing oxidative stress and activating endogenous antioxidant pathways.

This study highlights the potential of novel non-invasive testing techniques to enhance the diagnosis, treatment, and care of scalp hair diseases, urging future research to improve their accuracy and efficiency.

This study identified specific keratin-associated protein genes that are highly expressed in different varieties and sexes of Angora goats, providing insights for improving mohair development through targeted breeding strategies.

This study found that metformin may promote hair follicle regeneration by enhancing dermal cell activity in an in vitro mouse model, suggesting potential for treating pattern hair loss.

This study reveals that overexpression of Wnt3 in transgenic mouse skin leads to a short-hair phenotype and cyclical balding due to structural defects in hair shafts, highlighting a role for WNT signaling in hair growth regulation.

This report describes two sisters with rickets and alopecia unresponsive to high doses of vitamin D2, where oral phosphorus supplements led to significant clinical improvement.

This review discusses the roles of androgens and androgen receptors in skin-related disorders and suggests that targeting androgen receptors may be a more effective treatment strategy.

This study suggests that finasteride's effect on promoting hair growth in men with androgenetic alopecia may be due to its inhibition of 5aR2 localized in hair follicles.

Scientists made the first metal-based compounds from a nonsteroidal antiandrogen drug, which showed potential in fighting both hormone-dependent and independent prostate cancer cells.

This study found that stem cells from the human umbilical cord's Wharton's jelly may significantly enhance healing in excisional and diabetic wounds compared to controls.

This study found that silencing clock genes BMAL1 or PER1 in human hair follicles increased melanin content and melanocyte activity, suggesting these genes influence pigmentation.

This study reports that the same androgen receptor gene mutation within a family can lead to both complete and partial androgen insensitivity syndromes, suggesting that genetic defects alone may not predict clinical phenotype.

This study suggests that Nox4 is a key factor in the hypoxia-induced enhancement of adipose-derived stem cell functions through reactive oxygen species generation.

This study found that C. obtusa oils promoted hair growth in shaved mice and increased the expression of a hair growth regulator, VEGF, in a cell line.

This review discusses idiopathic hirsutism, potential underlying mechanisms, and various therapeutic approaches without providing new clinical results, and emphasizes the need for further research on well-defined patient groups.

In this study, researchers identified a unique Arg30stop mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene that causes hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets in a young French-Canadian boy by truncating the receptor and causing hormone resistance.

In this study, ectoderm-targeted transgenic mice with glucocorticoid receptor overexpression exhibited multiple epithelial defects, suggesting the role of NF-kappaB and p63 dysfunction in ectodermal dysplasia syndromes.

This study found that D'orenone blocks root hair growth by increasing PIN2 protein abundance, leading to reduced auxin concentration, but external auxin can reverse these effects.

This study found that most pathogenic HR mutants associated with atrichia with papular lesions had abolished corepressor activity due to defective interactions with histone deacetylases.

Long-term use of a certain medication can worsen erectile function in aged rats by damaging penile muscle cells.

This study found that CD44 and CD49d together enhance signaling pathways in lymphocytes in mice with alopecia areata, influencing their activation and function.

This review covers the connection between thyroid diseases and skin conditions like alopecia, dermatitis, and vitiligo, and highlights the need for further research on the role of thyroid hormones in skin health.

In this study, the researchers discovered that specific polyamine depletion enhances stemness in hair follicle stem cells through a mechanism independent of mRNA translation.

In this review, researchers explored how PGC-1α might improve aged skin barrier function by influencing mitochondrial function and reducing inflammation, factors that are linked to epidermal health during aging.

This article discusses melanocyte development from neural crest cells and reports no new experimental results; the authors suggest a broader range of functions for melanocytes than previously recognized.

This article reviews the potential relationship between serum amyloid A and hidradenitis suppurativa, highlighting genetic influences, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses idiopathic hirsutism and suggests that combination treatment, including androgen suppression and cosmetic methods, is most effective, but notes that its pathogenesis remains unclear.

Wheat bran can boost hair growth by affecting cell cycle proteins and signaling pathways.

In this study using the C3H/HeJ mouse model of alopecia areata, researchers found that hyperexpanded CD8⁺ T cell clones were sufficient to initiate disease, establishing a causal link between T cell clonality and pathogenicity.
