Finasteride reduces opioid use and withdrawal symptoms in animals.

This study found that systemic treatment with DS77754007, a KLK5 inhibitor, improved skin symptoms in a mouse model of Netherton Syndrome more effectively than certain antibody treatments, suggesting KLK5 inhibition as a promising therapeutic approach for this condition.

In this study, acetone was not superior to other degreasers for enhancing the efficacy of trichloroacetic acid peels, and its higher flammability suggests using alternative degreasers to reduce workplace hazards.

In this study, exposure to high concentrations of all-trans retinoic acid caused apoptotic cell death in mouse hair follicle stem cells, suggesting its potential for removing unwanted hair.

This review and meta-analysis found that isotretinoin is an effective treatment for dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, with a high estimated efficacy rate of 90%, yet 24% of patients experienced recurrence after successful treatment.

This study found that using a commercially available IPL home-use device led to significant hair reduction and demonstrated long-term efficacy in maintaining hair reduction one year after treatment.

Martin-Perez et al. show that rapamycin's beneficial effects in a mouse model of Leigh syndrome are linked to the downregulation of protein kinase C.

This study reported that the novel AKT inhibitor CCT128930 demonstrated significant antitumor activity in human cancer cell lines and xenografts, highlighting its potential as an anticancer therapy.

This study found that neurosteroids and benzodiazepines decrease network excitability in neuronal cultures, with specific long-term depressive effects on inhibitory neurons.

This study found that ingesting seeds from the Lecythis ollaria tree may cause hair loss and other toxic effects in animals.

This study found that α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone increased melanin production in hair follicles of moulting Siberian hamsters, whereas [8-arginine]-vasotocin inhibited melanin production without affecting tyrosinase activity.

This study suggests that UVA-responsive nanocapsules may provide an effective method for skin antisepsis by releasing ethanol and reducing microorganisms within hair follicles on ex vivo porcine ear skin.

This study found that cardamonin may inhibit OSCC cell migration, proliferation, and invasion by affecting the PI3K/AKT pathway, suggesting its potential as a treatment.

This study found that ozonated olive oil exhibited antifungal activity against Trichophyton mentagrophytes, comparable to the standard antifungal terbinafine, in an in vivo rat study, suggesting it may serve as an alternative treatment for dermatophytosis.

This communication discusses previous reports of deadly hematopoietic depression associated with the topical use of demecolcine for skin cancers, highlighting potential hazards relative to colchicine ointment in psoriasis.

This review discusses the mechanisms of skin-associated cell death and their potential role in treating inflammatory skin diseases, but presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that caffeic acid amide derivative, compound 4, effectively inhibited steroid 5α-reductase type 1 in vitro, suggesting potential for development as a treatment for androgenic alopecia.

In these two clinical trials, DS-2325a, a KLK5 inhibitor, was found to be generally safe and well tolerated in healthy volunteers, with mild and non-serious adverse events, suggesting its potential for further development as a treatment for Netherton Syndrome.

TEC kinases may help cause inflammation in vitiligo and could be targeted for treatment.

This study suggests that the anticonvulsant effects of deoxycorticosterone in young rats may be mediated by its metabolites and interactions with multiple receptors, including mineralocorticoid and progesterone receptors.

In this case study, alopecia was observed as a possible side effect in a patient taking oral acyclovir for herpetic keratouveitis, which resolved after discontinuing the medication.

In this clinical trial, patients with lichen planopilaris treated with the oral TYK2 inhibitor deucravacitinib showed significant improvement in PGA, LPPAI, and Skindex-16 scores over 24 weeks, with transcriptomic analyses indicating decreased inflammatory and immune pathway activity post-treatment.

This study suggests that combining bendamustine with tucidinostat may improve survival in patients with relapsed or refractory adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, highlighting its potential for clinical investigation.

In this study, isatin-gallate hybrids were synthesized and assessed, with compound 3b showing significant in vitro antioxidant and cytotoxic activities, and the series displaying moderate efficacy in inhibiting coronavirus activity through in silico analysis.

This review summarized the latest knowledge suggesting that Janus kinase inhibitors may have therapeutic potential for treating skin diseases like atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, especially when conventional therapies do not work.

This study found that Botryococcus terribilis ethanol extract significantly reduced inflammation markers in LPS-stimulated RAW264 cells, potentially via Axl inhibition and alteration of immune-related gene expression.

This study found that low-output laser irradiation demonstrates biostimulatory effects on several biological systems and processes, including hair growth, wound healing, and immune function, with effects influenced by dose and exhibiting both stimulatory and inhibitory potential.

This study at Abbasi Shaheed Hospital reported that intralesional triamcinolone acetonide via Dermojet was highly effective, with 75 out of 100 alopecia areata patients showing significant hair regrowth in affected patches.

This Phase II study found that BAY 43-9006, given at 400 mg orally twice daily, led to stable disease in 30% and tumor reduction in 40% of renal cell carcinoma patients.
