This study presents a validated HPTLC method for simultaneously determining five BPH drugs, showing high sensitivity and selectivity for potential use in quality-control analysis.

This article reviews the use of hormonal therapies in dermatology, specifically focusing on their pathophysiologic rationale, indications, commonly used drugs, and pretreatment evaluations, and it reports no new research findings.

This study found that several synthesized pregnane derivatives exhibited significant inhibitory effects on testosterone conversion to dihydrotestosterone and reduced related androgenic parameters in multiple pharmacological models.

This study found that ginsenoside F2 may suppress hair cell apoptosis and improve hair growth outcomes in a DHT-induced hair loss model more effectively than finasteride.

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.

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.

This research investigated aqueous alginate-based hydrogels for delivering minoxidil and reported that using hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) with molar substitution 0.65 significantly enhanced minoxidil's solubility and skin permeability without damaging the epidermis, suggesting potential as an alternative to commercial minoxidil solutions.

In this study, researchers developed a hyaluronic acid-coated copper peroxide nano-antimicrobial system that demonstrated precise antimicrobial activity and accelerated wound healing by releasing reactive oxygen species in response to bacterial enzymes, in both laboratory and animal tests.

This case report details a 10-year-old boy diagnosed with kerion celsi caused by Microsporum gypseum, successfully treated with itraconazole over 4.5 months.

This study developed a niosomal delivery system loaded with tretinoin and bicalutamide, optimized for follicular targeting in acne management, showing promising accumulation in hair follicles in animal models.

This study found that fig leaf extract significantly downregulated inflammatory and androgenic gene expression in vitro, suggesting potential topical benefits for certain skin disorders.

This review presents current evidence on medicinal plants and their phytoconstituents, such as phenolic compounds, used in acne treatment, highlighting their potential as alternatives to conventional therapies due to issues like antibiotic resistance and high cost.

This review highlights the promising potential of microemulsions and nanoemulsions in (trans)dermal drug delivery, noting a gap in understanding their distinct mechanisms and composition-related effects on skin permeability, while emphasizing the limited clarity on mesostructures and cosolvent impacts.

This study reported intra-familial transmission of Arthroderma benhamiae among Canadian porcupines in a Japanese zoo, with genetic sequences previously undocumented in Japan or the GenBank database.

This study found that red-flowered cultivars of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis displayed the highest antioxidant activity, phenolic, and flavonoid content compared to other colored cultivars.

In this study, a combination of spironolactone and finasteride was found to significantly improve hirsutism scores without increasing side effects compared to spironolactone alone.

This study found that Monascus cursory extraction reduced baldness, prostate hyperplasia, and tumor incidence in animal models of androgen-related diseases, suggesting it may be a promising new therapeutic candidate.

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 developed dissolving microneedles using specific polymers for transdermal delivery of rizatriptan benzoate, demonstrating improved drug skin penetration and significant alleviation of migraine symptoms in vivo compared to passive diffusion, suggesting potential advantages over conventional treatment methods for acute migraine.

This review discusses various patent articles on microemulsion carriers in drug delivery systems and reports no new empirical findings.

In this study, ketoconazole treatment successfully cured a dog with erythematous epilation caused by Chaetomium globosum, with new hair growth observed 9 weeks later.

This review discusses the applications and advantages of LED-based photobiomodulation therapy for dermatological and cosmetic purposes but highlights existing challenges and health concerns while exploring future perspectives.

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.

A new method was created to accurately measure minoxidil and aminexil in hair loss treatments.

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 describes an analytical technique combining field-enhanced sample stacking with dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction, offering improved sensitivity for detecting finasteride and its metabolite in urine samples from patients treated for androgenetic alopecia.

This study evaluated a herbal shampoo containing flavonoid glycosides from Dicerocaryum senecioides and found that it successfully treated T. tonsurans infections in children's scalp when used daily, demonstrating significant effectiveness compared to a placebo.

This study found that Lepidium sativum leaf extract significantly downregulated VEGF, TNF-α, and SRD5A2 gene expressions in HaCaT cells, suggesting potential benefits for inflammatory and androgen-dependent skin disorders.

This study developed a simple and cost-effective chromatographic method for simultaneously analyzing betamethasone dipropionate and calcipotriol, achieving rapid separation within 7 minutes suitable for routine applications.
