In this study, a single dose of PTH–CBD produced a sustained increase in bone mineral density for up to a year in mice, indicating its potential as an osteoporosis treatment.

This study found that exposure to sex steroid biosynthesis inhibitors increases the expression of piRNA pathway genes in frog larvae, suggesting these genes play a role in gonadal sex differentiation.

This study observed that hair density and growth rates vary by location and age, and the presence of thin hairs predominates in younger women with mild patterned hair loss.

This case study identified Trichophyton rubrum as the cause of trichophytia profunda acuta in a patient using nested PCR, suggesting an alternative diagnostic approach when KOH tests and cultures fail.

This article reviews the role and clinical applications of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and parathyroid hormone-related peptide in dermatology, with a focus on psoriasis treatment, and reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that the twisted hair shafts characteristic of pili torti may result from uneven outer root sheath cell development, leading to irregular hair shaft modeling and twisting.

This study found that the Alopecia Areata Patient Priority Outcomes questionnaire is a reliable and valid tool for measuring the severity and impact of hair loss in individuals with alopecia areata.

Understanding tissue self-organization can improve treatments for diseases and advance regenerative medicine.

This study found that fremanezumab was effective in reducing migraine headache days by at least 50% for the majority of patients with high-frequency episodic or chronic migraine who had failed previous treatments.

This study explored gene expression in Changthangi goats and found that higher expression of keratin-related genes and specific signaling pathways may play a role in the development of Pashmina fiber.

This study found that procyanidins effectively alleviate neuropathic pain in mice by significantly inhibiting MMP-9/2 activity.

This study found that mice with a mutation in the Zdhhc13 gene exhibited increased susceptibility to skin cancer, highlighting a potential protective role of palmitoyl acyltransferase in skin carcinogenesis.

A specific gene mutation causes severe skin and nail issues and hair loss.

This phase I study determined that a combination of oral SU-014813 and docetaxel is a feasible treatment with a manageable safety profile and potential anti-tumor activity, particularly noted in melanoma and GIST patients.

The authors concluded that finasteride treatment inhibits hippocampal neurogenesis in mice, potentially impacting emotional behaviors and contributing to the pathophysiology of affective disorders.

This case report describes a 41-year-old woman with segmental vitiligo and lichen sclerosus in the perineal region, where treatment with clobetasol ointment improved repigmentation and resolved many symptoms, although some scaling persisted.

This phase II study found that gemcitabine plus paclitaxel showed promising activity and manageable toxicity as first-line therapy for recurrent or metastatic breast cancer, with a 35% overall response rate.

In this study, acute restraint stress increased Y1 receptor gene expression in the amygdala and PVN of transgenic mice, but this effect was not due to elevated neuroactive steroid concentrations, indicating a potential ligand-induced mechanism.

This study reported that finasteride 1 mg significantly improved hair growth in men aged 41 to 60 with predominantly vertex male pattern hair loss over 24 months compared to placebo.

This study found that the water fraction of Panax ginseng may reduce apoptosis and enhance medullary cell formation in the hair follicles of irradiated mice, suggesting a potential protective effect.

The researchers suggest that testosterone levels might influence COVID-19 susceptibility and severity, with low levels potentially protecting against infection but possibly worsening severe disease due to cytokine storm activation.

This study identified specific germline and somatic mutations in the Phospholipase C Delta 1 gene as high-risk factors for developing hereditary trichilemmal cysts, involving a monoallelic two-hit mechanism.

This review discusses a clinical approach to diagnosing alopecia through patient history and clinical findings, but it reports no new clinical results.

This source reports that hair surgeons can now regularly and significantly reduce damage to existing hair follicles in early-stage pattern baldness patients, helping preserve hair during treatment with finasteride or minoxidil.

This review discusses how using hydrogels as a three-dimensional culture platform for mesenchymal stem cells might affect the production of extracellular vesicles, highlighting challenges in standardization and opportunities to boost EV yield via combined hydrogels and bioreactor methods.

This study observed that among patients with Myhre syndrome, those with the SMAD4 gene variant p.Arg496Cys experienced fewer symptoms like hearing loss, while those with the p.Ile500Thr variant often had severe aortic hypoplasia, highlighting the diverse symptom progression and genetic factors of this rare condition.

This study concluded that 12 sessions of fractionated thulium laser treatment improved hair density and thickness in patients with pattern hair loss, with further benefits from adding a growth factor solution post-treatment.

This study found that women with female pattern hair loss had increased 5α-reductase isozymes and decreased aromatase mRNA levels, potentially affecting their response to treatment.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have elevated cardiovascular risk markers, with levels being higher in obese participants compared to non-obese participants.

This study found that glycyrrhizic acid significantly reduced stem cell characteristics of dermal papilla cells by down-regulating key signaling pathways, suggesting potential use in suppressing unwanted hair growth.
