This review examines recent advancements in analytical techniques used to quantify dutasteride, a medication for enlarged prostate, in various biological samples and its commercial forms, emphasizing methods such as HPTLC, GC-MS, and HPLC.

In this study, researchers developed a reliable HPLC method to simultaneously estimate Finasteride and Tadalafil in marketed formulations, showing precise, linear results with confirmed degradation susceptibility under certain stress conditions.

This study found that pectin lyase-modified red ginseng extract may promote hair growth by enhancing antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, along with inhibiting testosterone-induced 5-alpha-reductase in human hair dermal papilla cells.

This study found that nano-sized minoxidil formulations significantly increased skin penetration and follicular drug delivery for alopecia areata treatment, compared to conventional ethanol-based solutions, and demonstrated effective controlled release over six hours.

In this in vitro study, extracts from Tridax procumbens demonstrated potential antioxidant and anticancer activity against various human cancer cell lines, with notable efficacy in specific fractions.

In this study, researchers identified an elite germplasm of the medicinal plant Eclipta alba, known for its liver disease benefits, with higher growth, yield, and wedelolactone content, suitable for large-scale cultivation to reduce strain on wild populations.

This study found that the ethanolic extract of Guazuma ulmifolia, or mutamba, showed only intermediate levels of phenolic compounds and low antioxidant activity in laboratory tests, suggesting limited potential in alleviating oxidative stress conditions like cancer or cardiovascular diseases.

This study found that topical application of Sinsun-yukza-hwan extract significantly increased hair density and thickness in a mouse alopecia model and enhanced expression of growth-related genes.

This study found that ringtailed lemurs consuming leucaena in Berenty absorb mimosine, which causes alopecia without affecting body condition or organ toxicity; this may increase infant mortality due to alopecic mothers.

This study found petroleum ether to be more effective than methanol at extracting β-sitosterol from Eclipta alba, with higher concentrations detected using HPTLC and HPLC methods. The extracted materials contained metals within safety limits.

In this study, methanol extracts from Thai-colored rice fermented with Aspergillus molds exhibited an increase in polyphenolic content and antioxidant activity, outperforming Thai white and Japanese white rice, notably transforming key polyphenols like quercetin and ferulic acid.

This review examines the design strategies for creating conductive hydrogels with adjustable properties for various biomedical applications, highlighting their potential for supporting cell growth, wound healing, drug delivery, tissue regeneration, and biosensing.

This study identified 43 compounds in Platycladi Cacumen, including flavonoids, and found significant chemical variation in flavonoid content across different regions and processed products.

This study investigated the use of dissolving microneedle patches to improve the skin-lightening effects of alpha-arbutin and resveratrol, finding that the patches enhanced intradermal delivery and slightly decreased the melanin index without affecting skin hydration or causing irritation over 24 hours.

This study found that synthetic melanin particles applied topically in mouse injury models improved wound healing, showing potential as a therapy for accelerated healing, including in human skin explants.

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 found that a lipid nanoemulsion-based gel of finasteride for topical use improved hair growth and was effective against alopecia, with slow skin permeation and increased efficacy compared to a testosterone-treated group.

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

In this study, researchers found that a protein-enriched cream made from Spirulina platensis improved the physical structure of natural hair, as evidenced by more intact and smoother cuticles compared to a control cream without protein, suggesting its potential for hair care applications.

This review systematically evaluates Erzhi Pill's formulation, therapeutic potential, and challenges, exploring its traditional applications and modern prospects for developing integrated quality control and precise medical strategies.

This study highlighted the promising health benefits of taxifolin, a flavonoid with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and other protective effects found in foods like onions and milk thistle, though more research is needed to fully understand its mechanisms and safety for human therapeutic use.

This study evaluated the antimicrobial activity of Albizia saponaria stem bark against microorganisms causing dandruff and fungal alopecia. It found that the hexane fraction exhibited potent antifungal effects comparable to ketoconazole, highlighting its potential as a natural therapeutic for dandruff.

This research focused on formulating finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil with cyclodextrins to enhance their solubility and skin penetration for topical use, potentially reducing scalp irritation from current alcohol-based preparations.

In this study, researchers found that finasteride undergoes second-order alkaline degradation kinetics and that its degraded form negatively impacts cell proliferation, highlighting the need for careful handling in pharmaceutical manufacturing and storage.

This study found that men with androgenic alopecia had significantly higher levels of certain urinary steroid metabolites, suggesting increased 5 alpha-reductase activity and possible mild hyperadrenal activity.

This study developed a reliable RP-HPLC method for the simultaneous estimation of Spironolactone and Hydrochlorothiazide, which was validated as accurate, precise, and robust for pharmaceutical applications.

This study found that radiofrequency microneedling significantly enhanced the absorption of topical triamcinolone acetonide, with insertion depth being more influential than RF energy levels.

This study found that two eco-friendly analytical methods for quantifying Finasteride and Tadalafil in a new dosage form were effective, green, and suitable for quality control.

In this study, red rice was found to contain 87.2% carbohydrates, 9.1% proteins, and demonstrated bioactive properties due to its flavan-3-ol phenolic compounds, suggesting potential health benefits beyond its nutritional content.

This study found that a new quercetin-loaded self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system improved quercetin bioavailability by 149.8% compared to its suspension in rats.
