This study described the clinical characteristics of 18 pediatric patients with alopecia areata at a hospital in Denpasar from 2021 to 2023, finding equal gender distribution and hair loss as the most common symptom, with onset typically within 1–6 months.

The book is a comprehensive and current guide on hair disorders, with minor flaws.

This study provides evidence that human skin contains genes and enzymes necessary for producing serotonin and melatonin.

This article reviews trichotillomania, highlighting its differences from OCD and recommending treatments like habit reversal therapy and specific medications, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that PM2.5 exposure induced oxidative stress in human keratinocytes and mouse skin, causing cellular damage, which was mitigated by the antioxidant N-acetyl cysteine.

This study found that activation or inhibition of Wnt/β-catenin and Notch signaling pathways in rats can alter wound healing, possibly by affecting epidermal stem cell activity and keratinocyte behavior.

This research article focuses on nonsteroidal inhibitors of human type I steroid 5-alpha-reductase but reports no new results.

This study found that mouse skin can produce and metabolize serotonin and N-acetylserotonin, with activity influenced by location, physiological skin status, cell type, and mouse strain.

This review discusses the role of corneodesmosin in skin and hair follicle integrity, with mentions of its link to hypotrichosis simplex and peeling skin disease, and reports no new results.

This review discusses the potential health benefits of L-Cysteine, noting increased research interest but highlighting a lack of clinical trial data for consensus on its effectiveness.

PPAR-γ agonists like pioglitazone may help manage lichen planopilaris but don't fully reverse scarring.

This review examines the patent literature on AKR1C3 inhibitors and suggests that although numerous potent inhibitors exist, further preclinical optimization is necessary before assessing their therapeutic potential in human diseases.

This review summarizes factors involved in polycystic ovary syndrome pathogenesis and management, highlights commonly prescribed and repurposed medications, and calls for well-designed clinical trials to evaluate these treatments further.

This study found that minoxidil is bioactivated through sulfation by the phenol-sulfating form of phenol sulfotransferase in human liver.

Made 8 minoxidil samples; 1 cocrystal, 7 salts formed.

This study identified a sulfotransferase activity in rat liver that catalyzes the sulfation of minoxidil, contributing to its delayed hypotensive effects.

In this study, lecithin/n-propanol/isopropyl myristate/water/tetracaine hydrochloride microemulsion was found to be a safe carrier for transdermal drug delivery in animal models, with analgesic effects on Wistar rats.

This study observed that androgen treatment increased ROS production and TGF-β1 secretion in rat hair follicle dermal papilla cells, suggesting that the androgen-induced TGF-β1 is mediated by ROS.

This study suggests that Myc superfamily transcription factors may have distinct roles in different epithelial compartments of the human hair follicle, possibly influencing cell fate in the putative stem cell compartment.

This review discusses psychocutaneous syndromes, detailing their classifications and management strategies, but reports no new clinical findings; it underscores dermatologists' role in these cases.

In this study, N-WASP deficiency in mouse skin was found to cause severe alopecia and disrupt hair follicle cycling by 5 months, highlighting its critical role in skin function and Wnt signaling.

This study introduces MicrobeFDT, a tool that clusters chemically similar compounds and links them to gut microbial enzymes and toxicities, demonstrating its utility by uncovering previously unknown metabolism of the cancer drug altretamine.

This review summarizes current and emerging treatments for common hair loss conditions, highlighting good evidence for androgenetic alopecia but noting the lack of long-term data for alopecia areata and cicatricial alopecias.

This review summarizes various treatment options for polycystic ovary syndrome, noting that while some treatments address specific symptoms, no single therapy fully resolves the condition.

This article reviews the roles and synthesis of essential long-chain fatty acids in the body and reports no new research findings; it emphasizes the importance of dietary sources for these lipids.

This review discusses the diagnostic and treatment challenges of trichotillomania and emphasizes the need for better-designed studies to optimize treatment approaches.

This study found that minoxidil nanoparticles increased drug delivery to hair follicles and improved hair growth more effectively in mice than conventional minoxidil formulations.

This report describes a neurometabolic disorder linked to gain-of-function variants in the ODC1 gene, characterized by developmental delay, ectodermal abnormalities, and notable facial and neuroimaging features.

In this study using rats, finasteride-induced DHT deficiency led to morphological changes in seminiferous tubules, linked with altered junctional protein expression, potentially impairing fertility.

This study found that N-acetylcysteine effectively prevented cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia in rats, and ImuVert plus N-acetylcysteine prevented alopecia from a cyclophosphamide-cytarabine combination.
