This study found that Origanum vulgare extract significantly ameliorated finasteride-induced liver and kidney damage in mice by improving biochemical indices, reducing inflammation, and enhancing antioxidant status in a dose-dependent manner.

This study investigated a novel extract from pomegranate byproducts, finding it effective in reducing blood pressure and inflammation in hypertensive rats, comparable to Captopril, while also highlighting the extract's potential to enhance the pomegranate supply chain and environmental benefits.

This study highlights IGF-1's role in promoting hair follicle proliferation, vascularization, and growth, suggesting its potential as a treatment target for hair loss disorders like androgenetic alopecia, though more research on delivery methods and long-term effects is needed.

In this study, lifelong barley intake in SAMP8 mice was associated with extended lifespan, improved aging-related phenotypes, and beneficial shifts in the intestinal microbiome.

This review highlights advancements in applying single-cell sequencing to cattle, sheep, and goats, noting its potential to elucidate cellular diversity and improve traits affecting livestock health and productivity, despite challenges in cell population annotation and spatial resolution in these species.

This review discusses the impact of lifestyle interventions, including diet and probiotics, on weight and metabolic health in women with PCOS, but reports no new clinical results.

This review reports that oral collagen peptide supplements may improve skin elasticity, hydration, and wrinkle appearance while also supporting hair and nail health and wound healing, but emphasizes the need for longer, high-quality studies due to current research limitations and variability in findings.

This Mendelian randomization study found that specific dietary patterns, such as consuming antioxidant-rich foods like melon and tea, may have protective effects against hair loss, while processed carbohydrates, alcohol, and certain dairy products could increase the risk of androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata.

This review discusses the vast potential uses of persimmon beyond its dietary benefits, including applications in sustainability and new product development, but reports no new clinical outcomes.

In this review, researchers highlighted that natural polyphenolics like flavonoids and resveratrol may help enhance testosterone production in aging males by boosting the expression of the Star gene in Leydig cells, potentially preventing age-related degenerative conditions linked to testosterone insufficiency.

This randomized controlled trial found that consuming *Gynostemma pentaphyllum* extract significantly improved hair elasticity, density, and diameter over 24 weeks without severe adverse events, suggesting it as a safe functional food ingredient for hair health improvement.

This joint consensus statement from several Polish professional associations discusses strategies for improving obesity treatment and enhancing primary care's role in managing obesity, with no new empirical data reported.

This study found that piglets' rapid growth during nursery and lactation was linked to changes in microbiota composition and increased cortisol conversion, highlighting critical early life factors influencing adult microbiota establishment.

This study found that hair manganese levels did not vary by acute coronary syndrome or stable coronary artery disease severity, but a modest, non-significant correlation with body mass index suggests a potential link between manganese homeostasis and cardiometabolic status that warrants further investigation.

This study observed that while low vitamin D levels are associated with increased risk of autoimmune thyroid diseases, evidence from clinical trials on vitamin D supplementation shows inconsistent effects on thyroid function and disease progression, underscoring the need for further research.

This study discusses the potential association between low vitamin D levels and insulin resistance, suggesting that vitamin D deficiency may contribute to disorders like obesity and diabetes, but emphasizes the need for further research to confirm these links.

This study found that berberine supplementation improved gut microbiota composition and reduced obesity-related hepatic inflammation and oxidative stress in genetically obese mice.

This review summarizes existing reports on placenta extract for treating liver injury and discusses its mechanisms but provides no new clinical results.

In this study, Ishige sinicola extract was observed to improve bone density and structure in an animal model of estrogen deficiency-induced osteoporosis, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic option for postmenopausal osteoporosis by inhibiting osteoclast formation without cytotoxic effects.

This study in mice found that maternal iron deficiency led to hair loss and growth abnormalities in offspring due to increased oxidative stress and disrupted signaling pathways, but postnatal iron supplementation was able to reverse these effects.

This study found that enhancing quercetin bioavailability with EubioQuercetin significantly improved external aging signs in mice and influenced gut microbiota and intestinal gene expression, suggesting potential modulation through the gut microbiota–intestinal barrier axis.

This study found that adequate vitamin D status is necessary for metformin to effectively reduce prolactin levels in men with iatrogenic hyperprolactinemia, while improvements in glycemic control were observed across all vitamin D groups.

In this experimental study, the researchers observed that Platycladus orientalis leaf extract promoted hair growth by enhancing dermal papilla cell proliferation and increasing growth factor expression, particularly through ACK1 activation and modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways in cultured human cells and a 12-week topical application.

In this systematic review, animal studies showed that cytarabine causes multi-organ toxicities, notably neurotoxicity, linked to oxidative stress and other mechanisms, though study quality raises concerns about reliability and translation to human outcomes.

In this laboratory study, Cucumis melo var. makuwa leaf extract significantly reduced DHT-induced apoptosis in human dermal papilla cells by modulating androgen receptor activity and gene expression, suggesting potential as a therapy for androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses how dental pulp stem cells and their derivatives may accelerate skin wound healing by modulating inflammation, promoting angiogenesis, optimizing extracellular matrix structure, and enhancing tissue formation, with implications for translating these findings into therapies for skin and mucosal repair.

Innovative methods are reducing animal testing and improving biomedical research.

This review concluded that polyherbal hair oils, using key medicinal plants, may offer a validated and sustainable alternative to synthetic cosmetics for hair and scalp health, with potential for industrial standardization and clinical use.

In this study, researchers developed and tested a herbal hair serum using hibiscus, flaxseed, and aloe vera, finding that the optimal formulation effectively reduces frizz, enhances hair smoothness and glossiness, and provides moisturizing benefits without harmful ingredients compared to conventional hair serums.
