This study in rats found that a new hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin formulation of minoxidil reduced the adverse cardiovascular and proliferative effects seen with traditional minoxidil solutions.

This study found that topical application of triiodothyronine (T3) can induce the transition of hair follicles from the telogen to the anagen phase in mice and stimulate hair shaft growth in vitro.

In this study, researchers found that finasteride inhibits progesterone synthesis by blocking cholesterol side-chain cleavage in mouse-derived MA-10 Leydig cells, but this effect may not be evident in human or rat cells.

This study found that flower extracts of Wedelia trilobata may serve as a promising active ingredient for cosmeceutical products due to their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties.

This research developed a zinc-doped nanocomposite using biodegradable materials, observing effective bone targeting and regeneration capabilities in vivo, with no observed cytotoxicity in the MG63 cell line, potentially due to blocking Farnesyl Diphosphate Synthetase to inhibit osteoclastic activity and promote osteogenesis.

This review discusses the potential of using human hair proteomics for non-invasive diagnostic and forensic applications but reports no new results; the authors highlight areas needing further research.

This study suggests that chest, arm, leg, and beard hair samples may be viable alternatives to scalp hair for monitoring long-term alcohol intake, although body hair is more typically collected from men.

This study developed an herbal hair oil containing plant extracts such as Aloe barbadensis and Nigella sativa, reporting it showed good antioxidant and antimicrobial activity, suggesting potential benefits for hair growth and hair fall prevention.

In this murine study, researchers found that topical treatment with Philippine stingless bee propolis increased folliculogenesis, epidermal thickness, and melanogenesis, but not hair length, potentially supporting hair follicle regeneration and melanocyte function in chemotherapy-induced alopecia models.

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 review, researchers evaluated 111 studies on the biological activities and phytochemical components of the plant Tridax procumbens, emphasizing its ethnobotanical potential and the need for more research to understand its therapeutic benefits, especially in its native tropical regions.

In this in vitro study, researchers found that a combination of soursop leaf extract and doxorubicin moderately enhanced the anti-cancer effect against MCF-7 breast cancer cells, but they did not report on reducing doxorubicin's side effects.

This study found that administering an alcoholic extract of Mentha spicata leaves significantly reduced testosterone levels and aggressive behavior in female rats with elevated testosterone, suggesting its potential protective role against such symptoms.

This study demonstrated that derivatives of dehydroepiandrosterone (2a-b, 3a-f, and 4a-f) significantly reduced viable LNCaP prostate cancer cells, suggesting potential therapeutic use for metastatic prostate cancer, while finasteride did not alter cell viability.

This study reports that hair samples can be used to track chronic hormone levels, revealing stress, reproductive, and sodium regulation patterns in wildebeest related to environmental factors.

This study found that Dendrobium sabin flower extracts, especially the methanolic one, demonstrated strong antioxidant and anti-aging properties without significant toxicity, suggesting its potential in treating photo-induced skin aging.

This study found that standard decontamination procedures may not fully remove external contamination in post mortem hair specimens, complicating the interpretation of drug detection in such samples.

This study explored the structure and function of lipocalin prostaglandin D synthase, revealing its dual role in substrate catalysis and as a lipophilic ligand carrier, potentially informing future drug delivery design.

This review discusses the isolation, structure, and bioactivity of lignans and neolignans from 2016 to mid-2018, reporting no new clinical results but highlighting their potential protective properties against diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration.

This review examines how mesenchymal stem cells and their derivatives may enhance skin regeneration and rejuvenation, but it reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest iPSC-derived MSCs hold promise for future therapies.

This review explores the role of fatty acids and bioactive lipid mediators in skin health and suggests targeting this metabolic network to control inflammation and improve skin conditions, but it reports no new findings.

This review compiles data on Platycladus orientalis leaves, noting their diverse pharmacological activities and advocating for more research to clarify their traditional blood-cooling and hematostatic uses.

This chapter reviews formulation principles for creating cosmetic nanoemulsions and applications targeting skin and hair care, but does not present new experimental results.

This article discusses the genomic and postgenomic changes in chronic degenerative diseases and cardiovascular and skin disease contexts, highlighting potential modulation through diet and pharmacological interventions without presenting new experimental results.

This review integrated findings on the nutritional, pharmacological, and techno-functional properties of Leucaena seeds, highlighting their potential benefits and challenges for human nutrition, particularly due to the presence of the antinutrient mimosine, which can cause adverse effects.

This review concludes that global literature supports the lipidosterolic extract of Serenoa repens as efficacious and safe for treating lower urinary tract symptoms, with some studies showing equivalence to common pharmacologic agents.

In this review, the researchers compared the traditional use of Senna Makki in Unani medicine for various ailments to modern pharmacological evidence, endorsing its role as a laxative but indicating further research is needed for its efficacy in other therapeutic areas.

This review explores the pharmacological effects of Glycyrrhiza glabra, or liquorice, highlighting its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antiviral properties, but reports no new experimental results.
