In this case report, researchers described a 6-year-old girl with severe mandibuloacral dysplasia type A, noting unique physical deformities and a rare homozygous LMNA gene mutation not commonly associated with the condition.

In this study, researchers used advanced four-dimensional optical imaging techniques to observe changes in skin afflicted with acne, finding increased epidermal thickness, keratinized hair follicles, inflammation, and aggregated blood flow, helping to distinguish between inflammation and reparative phases of acne progression.

This study found that the p.E402K mutation in the KRT86 gene is a hotspot in Chinese patients with monilethrix, and treatment with 5% topical minoxidil significantly improved hair density and quality.

The researchers concluded that baicalin may promote hair growth and follicle proliferation by activating the AKT pathway, suggesting its potential as a treatment for alopecia.

This study found that Sophora flavescens extract promoted hair growth in mice by advancing the hair cycle and may inhibit acne-causing bacteria, though it did not affect in vitro hair follicle cell growth.

This study demonstrated that steroidal carbamates 7–10 altered mRNA expression related to lipid metabolism in hamster flank organs and inhibited 5α-reductase activity without binding to the progesterone receptor.

This study found that various steroids affected the mRNA expression of enzymes involved in lipid metabolism in hamster flank organs, with different impacts depending on the steroid and combination used.

The new chitosan dressing heals wounds better and faster than current products.

This review explores the advantages and drawbacks of the anticancer drug paclitaxel, noting its effectiveness in combination with cisplatin for breast cancer survival, its potential for treating non-cancer conditions, and the mechanisms behind its resistance.

This study found that in vivo and in vitro, citric acid metabolism through the CS-CA axis suppressed hair growth and induced inflammation and cell apoptosis in hair follicles, suggesting it as a potential therapeutic target.

This study identified two novel mutations in the CDH3 gene causing HJMD in a Chinese patient, expanding the genetic and phenotypic understanding of the disorder.

This study found that adhesion molecules, specifically integrins and cadherins, are crucial for the down growth and proliferation of hair follicles in human embryos and fetuses.

In this true experimental study, researchers assessed the antibacterial effect of white jasmine leaf extract against Propionibacterium acnes and found varying inhibition zone diameters, with 500 µg/mL achieving up to 10.95 mm, though less effective than clindamycin, which reached 28.55 mm.

In this study, researchers developed and validated a rapid and robust chromatographic method to assess the concentration of Minoxidil and Finasteride in a new topical formulation for alopecia, demonstrating its ability to distinguish between different types of formulations using in vitro diffusion data.

This correspondence highlights existing research on pattern hair loss, discussing findings about immune deposits, lymphocytic infiltration, and responses to treatment, and calls for future well-controlled studies.

This study found that high concentrations of supplemental cobalt inhibited hair follicle development in rabbits, potentially involving the mTOR-BMP signaling pathway.

In this study, researchers highlight the role of androgens like dihydrotestosterone in the pathophysiology of acne, pointing to the enzyme 5a-reductase type 1 as potentially more active in individuals with acne, which may contribute to hormonal influences in the condition's development.

This review discusses the potential antiandrogenic effects of environmental chemicals on reproductive development, highlighting concerns about their impacts on humans but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that Crataegus pinnatifida extract promoted hair growth in mice by inducing the anagen phase, potentially through activating signaling pathways that enhance cell survival.

This study found that ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) may play a significant role in regulating human hair growth and hair cycle changes, as inhibiting ODC reduced follicular keratinocyte proliferation and human hair growth.

The researchers reported that hair bio element median derivatives bioassay is an effective and reliable method for evaluating the nutritional status of various bio elements, offering a non-invasive approach for nutritional health surveillance and precision medicine.

This study found that patients with androgenic alopecia had altered neuroactive steroid levels and depression symptoms after stopping finasteride treatment, suggesting lingering neuropsychiatric effects.

This study uncovered that bimatoprost, a prostaglandin analog, promotes hair growth by activating hair follicle progenitor cells through two pathways: the PTGFR-MAPK signaling axis and an unexpected IGF1R-PCAD-AKT signaling axis, suggesting new potential targets for treating hair disorders.

In a mouse model, this study found that exposure to PM2.5 leads to significant postpartum hair loss, apparent via morphological changes and elevated markers of inflammation, apoptosis, and fibrosis, potentially exacerbated by changes in hormone receptors and stem cell populations.

This study introduced hydrogel microneedles loaded with palladium nanoparticles, which utilize the inherent cytotoxicity of polyethyleneimine to enhance the effectiveness of doxorubicin in treating melanoma, achieving a tumor inhibition rate of up to 98% in a murine model.

This review highlights that both human-derived and plant-derived exosomes show anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, with human exosomes being better for targeted medicinal treatments due to their ability to transport healing drugs, while plant exosomes are more scalable and cost-effective for cosmetic applications.

In this review, various expression systems for synthesizing recombinant collagen are compared, highlighting their efficiency, modification capabilities, and cost. Key purification techniques are also analyzed, and challenges like reducing R&D costs and improving safety protocols are identified.

Panax notoginseng may help with oral ulcers and hair growth.

This study introduced an eco-friendly enzymatic hair dyeing process utilizing laccase-catalyzed polymerization of hematoxylin, achieving intense, long-lasting color comparable to commercial dyes while enhancing hair strength and offering antioxidant and UV-shielding benefits.

LIPH mutations cause woolly hair in some Chinese people.
