This case report describes how real-time PCR rapidly identified Trichophyton mentagrophytes in a dog's dermatophytosis when traditional mycological methods were slower.

In this case report, a 23-year-old woman developed localized trichorrhexis nodosa after compulsively applying 3% minoxidil to her scalp for two months.

This study found that an automated tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte classification algorithm identified thin melanomas with less immune response, which were associated with higher mortality compared to other cases in the study.

This study evaluated a menthol-based microemulsion for transdermal delivery of finasteride and silodosin, finding that it enhanced skin permeation and flux compared to aqueous solutions, suggesting a promising method for managing benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This research reported that docetaxel is generally safe and effective for elderly patients with solid tumor malignancies, showing no significant age-related differences in efficacy or toxicity.

This study found that the microRNAs oar-miR-23b and oar-miR-133 inhibit the proliferation and migration of sheep dermal fibroblasts, impacting the development of hair follicles in superfine wool sheep by targeting the genes TGFβ2 and NOTCH1.

This study reports that in a rat model of myocardial infarction, Zn-Cu ion sequential therapy improved cardiac function and cardiomyocyte metabolic activity by precisely regulating ion concentrations and maintaining elevated levels of the Per2 protein, important for cellular repair.

This study found that mushroom beta-glucans combined with radiation therapy may help control tumor growth and reduce metastasis in mice with Lewis lung carcinoma.

This case report highlights that macro-TSH, a rare condition causing falsely elevated TSH despite normal thyroid hormone levels, can lead to misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatment; identifying TSH antibodies and fractionation chromatography can prevent incorrect management, as demonstrated in a 19-year-old patient.

This study reports a case of a 59-year-old female with refractory follicular mucinosis and diffuse scalp alopecia who achieved complete clinical remission following treatment with a combination of topical tacalcitol and photodynamic therapy.

The researchers reported that using Natesto® testosterone gel improved erectile function and mood in hypogonadal men over a 90-day period.

In this study, the 40-MBR system was shown to enhance drug-screening efficiency by providing reliable, real-time monitoring of cell conditions in 3-D cultures compared to traditional methods.

This article reviews monilethrix, a rare genetic hair disorder causing brittle hair and alopecia, and emphasizes the need for clinical diagnosis and characteristic tricoscopic findings.

This Phase II study found that BAY 43-9006, given at 400 mg orally twice daily, led to stable disease in 30% and tumor reduction in 40% of renal cell carcinoma patients.

In this study, Saengbal-eum-2 (Shengfa-yin-2) promoted hair regrowth and decreased specific inflammatory cytokines in a mouse model compared to a control.

In this report, two young patients with corticosteroid-refractory alopecia totalis experienced safety and efficacy from oral tacrolimus.

This study found that the protein Formin 2 helps regulate cell-to-cell transport in thale cress by stabilizing actin filaments at plasmodesmata, with its absence leading to increased permeability and vulnerability to viral infections.

This study found that topical application of TGF-β mimic promoted enhanced wound healing and tissue regeneration in mice, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic option for improving wound healing.

This study found that the absence of Ctip2 in epidermal keratinocytes led to impaired wound healing in mice, affecting cell migration, proliferation, and hair follicle stem cell maintenance.

This case report highlights a rare instance of severe multi-organ involvement following a single dose of methotrexate for ectopic pregnancy, requiring intensive care but ultimately successfully treated with leucovorin and supportive care.

This study found that the antiandrogens enzalutamide and bicalutamide reduced SARS-CoV-2 entry and infection in human lung cells by lowering TMPRSS2 levels, suggesting their potential as COVID-19 treatments and supporting clinical trials.

This study reviewed the genetic and phenotypic aspects of Olmsted syndrome, highlighting pathogenic mutations in TRPV3 and MBTPS2 genes and their association with specific skin manifestations like symmetrical keratoderma and hyperkeratotic plaques.

In this case series, oral administration of zinc improved or cured hair loss in patients with zinc deficiency-related telogen effluvium.

In this study, researchers found that topical application of 3-β-methoxy-Δ18-oleanene (miliacin) in mice sped up the recovery of hair follicles damaged by cyclophosphamide, moving them into a new hair growth cycle more quickly compared to controls.

This study found that inhibiting the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier in human scalp hair follicles caused metabolic stress that halted cell proliferation and disrupted key signaling pathways, with these effects partially reversed by an integrated stress response inhibitor.

This study found that microneedle delivery of Polygonum multiflorum extract led to earlier pigmentation and hair regrowth in mice with androgenetic alopecia.

This case study reports successful treatment of a 19-year-old with Satoyoshi syndrome using a combination of carbamazepine, methotrexate, prednisolone, and sex-steroids, improving muscle spasms, alopecia, and quality of life.

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.

This study found that, in male patients with patellar tendinopathy, bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cell treatment improved tendon regeneration, organization, strength, and pain relief more effectively than leukocyte-poor platelet-rich plasma over 12 months.

This study found that silencing SRD5A2 and applying melatonin significantly boosted proliferation and migration of human hair follicle stem cells without causing differentiation, while increasing MT1 expression and reducing 5-alpha-reductase levels.
