This study found that the stratum corneum of scalp skin in humans has distinct functional characteristics compared to the facial skin and volar forearm, including higher hydration levels and intermediate epidermal turnover rates.

This study found that the aqueous ethanol extract of Myricae Cortex demonstrated in vitro testosterone 5alpha-reductase inhibitory activity and in vivo anti-androgenic effects in mouse and hamster models.

This study observed that hair loss in captive rhesus macaques varies with season, sex, and housing conditions, and is significantly correlated with HPA axis activity as indicated by faecal cortisol metabolites.

In this study, Juvéderm repeat treatments maintained wrinkle correction in nasolabial folds for up to 21 months and required significantly less filler than the initial treatment, indicating potential benefits for patients.

This study found that trichohyalin, a protein previously thought to be restricted to hair and tongue, is also present in isolated cells within the granular layer and stratum corneum of normal human epidermis.

This animal study found that Cinnamomi cortex water extract reduced prostate weight and improved histological changes in a benign prostatic hyperplasia model, suggesting potential as a treatment.

This study suggests that mesenchymal stem cell-induced dermal papilla-like tissues can generate new hair follicles in mice, indicating potential for developing hair cell therapy using stem cells.

This study found that intralesional triamcinolone acetonide is effective for treating localized patchy alopecia areata, with dermoscopy aiding in early detection of clinical response and adverse effects.

This article reviews the causes and cultural aspects of traction alopecia in black women and presents a treatment not previously reported, but it offers no new clinical findings.

This retrospective study found that a hairline-lowering technique effectively advanced the female hairline by an average of 2.1 cm with high patient satisfaction and minimal complications over 20 years.

This study found that certain endocrine factors, influenced by smoking, birth order, and frequency of orgasms, may play an important role in the development of male breast cancer.

This study found that combined topical, intralesional, and oral corticosteroids led to significant hair regrowth in some patients with alopecia totalis or universalis, allowing eventual cessation of oral corticosteroids in several cases.

Pollution exposure speeds up hair damage.

Darker hair may lead to higher cortisol readings, suggesting a need to adjust for hair color in studies.

In this case report, researchers identified Arthroderma vanbreuseghemii as the cause of a familial fungal infection, which was successfully treated with itraconazole and topical terbinafine cream.

In this study, researchers identified three molecules in hair that varied with age, suggesting potential markers for aging and targets for cosmetic products.

This study reports that sequential high- and low-dose prednisolone therapy effectively promotes complete hair regrowth in 62% of children with severe alopecia areata, while minimizing severe side effects.

The study found that finasteride increased endoplasmic reticulum stress and reduced fertility in rats, effects that were alleviated by the administration of DA-9401.

This study reports that epidermal neural crest stem cells from dogs (cEPI-NCSC) can generate neural crest derivatives and may offer a new cell-based therapy for canine spinal cord injury, with potential as a model for human treatments.

This study suggests that Houttuynia cordata extract may promote hair growth by stimulating dermal papilla cell proliferation and extending the anagen phase through enhanced energy metabolism and gene expression changes.

This study found that hydrophobic lipid-coated silica nanoparticles penetrated deeper into human stratum corneum compared to their hydrophilic counterparts, highlighting the influence of surface polarity on skin penetration.

This study found that N-acetyl-glucosamine-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers showed promise for skin lightening in healthy volunteers by reducing melanin distribution.

This study demonstrated that using a perfusion culture bioreactor and 3D spheroid culture can enhance corneal endothelial cell expansion and support the construction of tissue-engineered corneal endothelial layers in vitro.

This study found that AHCC significantly reduced alopecia caused by Ara-C in neonatal rats and improved liver function affected by 6-MP and MTX in mice.

This systematic review assessed cyclosporine's effectiveness with or without corticosteroids for treating alopecia areata, finding combined therapy more effective and with a lower recurrence rate than monotherapy, especially for severe cases, though results varied by alopecia type.

In this study, the herbal complex of Houttuynia cordata, Perilla frutescens var. acuta, and green tea promoted hair growth in C57BL/6 mice, enhancing regrowth and follicle development compared to controls.

This study suggests a weak association between male-pattern baldness and some coronary heart disease risk factors, but does not support it as a strong indicator of coronary risk.

Researchers observed that dutasteride and finasteride caused structural changes in the penises of both control and hypertensive rats, with dutasteride having a more pronounced effect on the corpus cavernosum.

This study found that hair follicle-plugging reduced skin permeation of certain model drugs, with effects varying based on EtOH pretreatment and the drug being evaluated.

This review discusses the role of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stromal cells in skin rejuvenation and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes their potential in delaying skin aging.
