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 article discusses the genetic hair disorder monilethrix, characterized by beaded, fragile hair due to defective keratin genes, and reports no effective treatment currently available; variability in severity was noted among affected siblings.

In this case report, a Danish family with monilethrix showed varying symptoms, diagnosed via dermatoscopy, microscopy, and gene sequencing. The study highlights that while no cure exists, oral minoxidil shows promise in a single case, and reducing hair trauma remains key for management.

This study found that morroniside enhanced hair follicle growth and transition through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in a mouse model, suggesting its potential as a treatment for hair loss.

This study reported that compound 16 (olean-12-en-3beta-ol, cinnamate) from Merremia peltata showed potential as an androgen receptor antagonist, suggesting it may benefit alopecia treatment based on molecular docking and ADME-Tox predictions.

This study found that bufotalinin, derived from Merremia peltata leaves, may enhance hair growth by acting as a potential androgen receptor antagonist in rabbits.

This case report describes a rare autosomal dominant hair shaft disorder, monilethrix, observed in three consecutive generations of a family, with gradual improvement noted with age.

This study found that the population of Smilax aristolochiifolia in the Poblano Totonacapan region of Mexico has decreased over the past 50 years, mainly due to land-use changes and herbicide use.

This review reported that rosemary shows promise in managing ischemic stroke and other oxidative stress-related conditions due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, highlighting its potential neuroprotective benefits for cognitive and brain health.

This study found that ingesting seeds from the Lecythis ollaria tree may cause hair loss and other toxic effects in animals.

This study found that the FER/MLO signaling module plays a crucial role in calcium oscillations and ROS production in root hair tip growth, with the MLO15 protein regulating these processes and restoring disrupted growth and signaling in fer mutant root hairs.

Sea holly extract may help reduce hair loss.

This study found that ethanol extracts from Musa paradisiaca cv. Puttabale corms have significant anthelmintic activity against Pheretima posthuma, outperforming the standard drug piperazine citrate in terms of paralysis and death times.

This study concluded that mycorrhizal colonization in trifoliate orange seedlings enhanced root-hair growth and altered root hormone levels to help the plants adapt to mild drought stress.

This study investigated the potential of nutmeg-derived phytochemicals as anti-alopecia agents using molecular docking and simulations, finding that geranylgeraniol exhibited significant binding stability and potential efficacy against androgenetic alopecia comparable to finasteride and superior to minoxidil.

In this study, oral etretinate resulted in increased hair length and loss of beading in a childhood monilethrix case, while the scalp's keratosis pilaris persisted.

This study found that hypaphorine alters cytoskeletal organization in Eucalyptus globulus root hairs, contributing to reduced root hair elongation by possibly disrupting vesicle delivery needed for growth.

This report describes four cases of monilethrix in children and concludes that periodic inhibition of keratin synthesis, not a metabolic defect, may explain the hair abnormality.

This study found that the vermilion border and mucosa of the monkey lip have a dense sensory innervation, which correlates with their known tactile sensitivity.

This review compiles evidence indicating that rosemary essential oil may enhance cognitive function, sleep quality, mood, and pain management in aromatherapy; however, it also notes potential allergic reactions, emphasizing caution in its use.

This case report describes a 7-year-old female from the Middle East with monilethrix, highlighting the disease's rarity in this population, characterized by brittle, sparse hair and keratosis pilaris.

This preliminary study found that Melandrium firmum extract may promote hair growth and inhibit 5α-reductase, suggesting potential as a candidate for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study identified 1965 different metabolites in various tissues of *Oresitrophe rupifraga* Bunge using a targeted metabolomics approach and found significant metabolic differences between its aboveground and underground parts, providing insights into the plant's unique growth traits and potential cultivation and utilization.

This study suggests that a herbal extract from Gardenia, Mentha arvensis, Rosemary, and Lavender may promote hair growth in mice at a rate comparable to minoxidil.

This article reviews the usage of medicinal plants for treating certain conditions in European Turkey, detailing the plants' parts, preparatory methods, and traditional therapeutic applications but reports no new experimental results.

This case report describes a 38-year-old patient with trichomycosis axillaris, successfully treated with shaving, 3% erythromycin cream, and clotrimazole powder.

The researchers reported that mast cell and nerve fiber interactions in mouse skin are highly selective for nerve fiber types and vary depending on the hair cycle phase.

This study found that inoculating tea plants with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi significantly improved growth, root morphology, and leaf nutrient levels, with Claroideoglomus etunicatum showing the most substantial effects.

This comprehensive review reports that Thuja orientalis L. displays several pharmacological properties, including antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticarcinogenic, anthelminthic, and hair growth-promoting effects, emphasizing its potential in modern medicine and the need for further research.

In this laboratory study, the researchers reported that an ethnomedicinal hair growth formula from East Nusa Tenggara, incorporating Kemiri, Kembang sepatu, Beringin, Mangkokan, and Waru, demonstrated significant antioxidant activity and effectively stimulated hair growth, suggesting potential development as a natural cosmeceutical.
