This study found that oxidative treatment with peracetic acid dissociates some disulfide bonds in human hair fibers while maintaining the crystalline structure, suggesting different mechanisms stabilize different regions of intermediate filaments.

This study suggests that true binary and ternary inclusion complexes were formed between finasteride and 2-hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin, with or without the addition of specific polymers.

This study determined that previous reports mistakenly identified different polymorphs of furosemide and finasteride, which are actually identical, due to incomplete data collection in single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

This study found that phyto-vesicles of ß-sitosterol showed better absorption and improved activity for treating androgenetic alopecia in rats compared to the compound and its complex.

Finasteride's polymorphic form affects capsule quality and drug effect, requiring strict control.

In this study, complexation with cyclodextrins was reported to increase the solubility of FIN for potential use in aqueous formulations for treating male androgenic alopecia.

This study reported that polymeric nanofibers containing minoxidil sulphate showed effective encapsulation and stability, with minimal concentration loss over six months, making them potentially ideal for delivering this unstable drug in a more visually appealing and easier-to-apply form.

In this study, forming inclusion complexes of Finasteride and poly (ethylene glycol) resulted in significantly improved solubility and dissolution rates, suggesting a promising new solid form for enhanced drug release.

This study found that nanostructured lipid carriers with more soybean phosphatidylcholine provided better skin retention and follicular targeting for diphencyprone compared to other formulations and controls.

This study found that Si extract, cryptomeridiol, and SiAgNPs have the ability to induce cell death and prevent cell growth in HepG2 liver cancer cells, suggesting cryptomeridiol's potential as a phytochemical component in developing new therapies for hepatocellular carcinoma using nanotechnology in vitro.

This study identified a new lignan and 21 known compounds from Asiasarum heterotropoides roots, with two compounds showing potential anticancer activity by influencing NO production, FOXP3 expression, and HIF-1α activity in vitro.

In this chemical investigation, cyclospongiaquinone 1 from the sponge Verongula cf. rigida showed strong steroid 5α-reductase inhibitory activity, comparable to that of finasteride.

This study found that oregonin, isolated from Alnus japonica, demonstrated strong antioxidant activity and apoptosis modulation in hair follicle cells, suggesting its potential as a natural ingredient for preventing hair loss in cosmetic products.

This study suggests that cedrol may improve mitochondrial function, gut microbiota, and intestinal barrier integrity, indicating its potential value in treating inflammatory bowel disease.

This study found that dutasteride-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers coated with a stearic acid-chitosan oligomer are stable, less cytotoxic, and suitable for topical delivery to promote hair growth.

This research concluded that the novel hydrogel PlacMA, derived from human placenta and curable by visible light, shows promise for cell culture and tissue engineering applications due to its tunable properties.

This study found that liposomes coated with cationic polymers, chitosan and Eudragit EPO, showed improved physicochemical stability and enhanced skin diffusion of aciclovir and minoxidil compared to uncoated liposomes.

This study identified novel compounds from Bombax ceiba stem bark, including shamimicin, with potent hypotensive effects, and reported that a specific fraction had adverse effects on heart, liver, and kidneys in mice.

This research investigated aqueous alginate-based hydrogels for delivering minoxidil and reported that using hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) with molar substitution 0.65 significantly enhanced minoxidil's solubility and skin permeability without damaging the epidermis, suggesting potential as an alternative to commercial minoxidil solutions.

This study found that using 2-hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin (HP-ß-CD) to encapsulate minoxidil can create a stable aqueous solution, potentially replacing the need for organic solvents in topical treatments for androgenic alopecia.

This study reports an easy colorimetric method for detecting nitrite in water using minoxidil, which may be suitable for various analytical applications due to its effective detection range.

This study developed two sensitive chromatographic methods for determining finasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride in pharmaceutical forms, validated against International Conference on Harmonisation guidelines.

This study developed an advanced HPLC-ESI-ion trap MS(n) method for the structural identification of cyclosporin A analogs CyA and CyC and reported the first MS(n)-aided identification of a new CyA analog.

This study found that compound 2 from Polygonum multiflorum significantly increased dermal papilla cell proliferation and hair-fiber length, suggesting potential as a therapeutic agent for alopecia.

This article outlines the synthesis of spiro[cyclohexane‐1,2′‐[2 H ]indene] derivatives similar to known steroid 5α‐reductase inhibitors, but it does not report experimental findings.

This review discusses the diverse bioactivities and potential applications of Halocnemum strobilaceum but reports no new experimental findings.

This study identified new oxidative derivatives of finasteride, including a newly discovered metabolite, by using the fungus Macrophomina phaseolina.

This study found that biotransformation of finasteride by Aspergillus niger produced two metabolites with different levels of lipoxygenase inhibition, suggesting potential for developing more potent derivatives.
