This study found that 2 percent topical minoxidil significantly increased nonvellus hair count and showed moderate regrowth compared to placebo in women with mild to moderate androgenetic alopecia, although participants did not notice the difference.

This review discusses studies on resistance training for improving PCOS symptoms and reports no new results, highlighting the need to consider diet alongside exercise and calling for more research.

This case study reports a new variant of chronic dermatophytosis with giant cutaneous horns, suggesting a possible genetic link and highlighting successful treatment with antifungal medications.

This study describes optimized methods for culturing hair cells from 4-day-old C3H mice, leading to successful maintenance of hair-specific cytoskeletal protein expression under the experimental conditions.

In this study, gene expression changes in rat whisker follicles after methamphetamine administration may serve as indicators of the drug's rewarding effects and potential addiction pathways.

This review discusses the suitability of stump-tailed macaques and rodent models for studying hair growth and developing treatments for androgenetic alopecia, but reports no new experimental results.

In this study, Trf1 genetic deletion in mice, including those with cancer-prone mutations, was shown to not affect overall viability and cause only mild effects, while being necessary for tumor formation, suggesting a potential therapeutic window for Trf1 as an anti-cancer target.

This review discusses the use of the feather model to explore tumorigenesis, regeneration, and hormone-dependent growth, highlighting its potential for advancing biomedical research, but reports no novel experimental results.

This study found that knocking down P-cadherin expression in cultured human hair follicles recreates the hair abnormalities seen in patients with hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy.

In this study, researchers found that arsenic transfer to induced hair in rats increased sharply at first and then more gradually, correlating significantly with arsenic levels in key organs.

This review discusses the potential severe consequences of androgenic alopecia, including its association with psychosocial distress and an increased risk for certain diseases, and highlights the need for comprehensive medical evaluation.

This study found that treatment with cyproterone acetate and estradiol improved emotional well-being and acceptance of being viewed among women with hirsutism, with no significant differences between oral and transdermal estradiol groups.

The study examined cytokeratin expression in different bovine epithelial tissues, finding that hair follicles and nasolabial glands express both acidic and basic types, while other epithelia express only one type.

In their research, Yucel and colleagues found that CaV1.2 is expressed in hair follicle stem cells, facilitating anagen re-entry in a way not dependent on calcium flux.

This case report describes the diagnosis of Netherton's syndrome in two young sisters, attributing their serious erythrodermia, poor hair growth, and atopic conditions to this hereditary condition.

The article concludes that studying how skin forms is key to understanding skin diseases and improving regenerative medicine.

This review discusses non-motor symptoms in autoimmune myasthenia gravis and associated thymomas, highlighting abnormal T-cell clones as a contributing factor, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reported three related cases of woolly hair syndrome transmitted as a dominant autosomal trait, characterized by fine, frizzy hair and general hair thinning.

This obituary honors Susan Lee Lindquist for her pioneering work in cellular protein folding and genetics, highlighting her significant contributions to science and mentorship in her nearly 40-year career.

In this study, azelaic acid was found to enhance UVB protection in bulge cells and, when combined with minoxidil, may promote hair growth through increased Sonic hedgehog protein expression in hair follicles.

This case study reports that a woman with systemic lupus erythematosus experienced remission of her symptoms after receiving a combined therapy of corticosteroids and cytostatics.

This personal narrative from "Archives of Disease in Childhood" 1995 underscores that empathy, explanation, and reassurance may be more effective than medication for those experiencing delayed puberty and related social challenges; no clinical results are provided.

This report describes a case of polymyositis that was resistant to steroids and immunosuppressants but showed improvement with immunoadsorption therapy.

This study found that dispersed hair follicle cells can be cultured successfully on collagen type IV, potentially offering an alternative to cultured epidermal keratinocytes for skin treatment.

This article presents the surgical technique of long hair follicular unit excision (FUE) in hair transplantation and reports procedural and outcome data for 134 patients, without evaluating clinical outcomes.

This case study reports successful treatment of partial scalp alopecia secondary to a repaired occipital encephalocele using the tissue expansion technique.

This study found that the chromatin remodeler Brg1 plays a crucial role in hair follicle maintenance and epidermal repair by regulating the Shh signaling pathway and forming a positive feedback loop.

This report describes a case where a young woman developed Kerion Celsi, a fungal skin infection, potentially linked to the use of a tretinoin, minoxidil, and betamethasone valerate lotion.

This review discusses causes and treatments for hirsutism in women and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that nisoral treatment in patients with hyperandrogenism was associated with restored menstrual cycles and reduced pathological hair growth, along with decreased testosterone and increased estradiol and progesterone levels.
