This study found that a topical hedgehog agonist can stimulate hair growth by promoting the transition from the resting to growth phase of the hair cycle in adult mouse skin.

This study found that preconditioning adipose-derived stem cells with HB-EGF enhanced their ability to promote hair growth in vivo by increasing their motility, paracrine effects, and survival.

In this study, researchers found that recombinant human HAPLN1 promoted hair growth in mice and human hair matrix cells by activating specific signaling pathways, suggesting it may offer a potential hair loss treatment with fewer side effects than existing medications.

This study reports that a heparin-based sericin hydrogel encapsulating basic fibroblast growth factor significantly accelerated wound healing in mice by enhancing vascularization, re-epithelialization, and collagen deposition.

In this in silico study, researchers analyzed nonsynonymous SNPs in the LIPH gene linked to hypotrichosis and identified three potentially harmful variants (W108R, C246S, and H248N) out of 215 total, using sequence- and architecture-based bioinformatics techniques to differentiate between harmful and benign SNPs.

This study identified a novel mutation and confirmed a previous mutation in the LIPH gene in a woman with autosomal recessive woolly hair, expanding the mutation spectrum for this condition.

This article discusses the potential of copper tripeptide (GHK-Cu) to support collagen synthesis and antioxidant activity in the context of androgenetic alopecia but reports no clinical results.

This report documents the first known case of acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy potentially linked to pegylated interferon-alpha 2a in a woman undergoing treatment for chronic hepatitis C.

In a laboratory setting, this study found that overexpression of the FGF5 short form in cultured keratinocytes increased hepatic growth factor gene expression, suggesting a potential role in hair growth.

This study identified compound heterozygous mutations, c.1101del and c.736 T > A, in the LIPH gene responsible for causing autosomal recessive woolly hair in a child, with c.1101del being a novel frameshift mutation.

This study found that GnRH agonist treatment improved hirsutism scores more than finasteride after six months in women with idiopathic hirsutism, with both treatments causing no menstrual abnormalities or side-effects.

This review highlights that while sonidegib and vismodegib offer promising treatment options for advanced basal cell carcinoma, their use is often limited by treatment-emergent adverse events, which can be managed through protocol modifications and supportive interventions.

This study found that injecting hepatocyte growth factor-enhanced hair follicle stem cells into a rat model of ischemic stroke improved recovery by reducing inflammation, protecting the blood-brain barrier, and promoting angiogenesis.

This study identified a homozygous frameshift mutation in the HOXC13 gene associated with pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia in a consanguineous Syrian family, suggesting crucial roles for HOXC13 in hair and nail development.

This study found that finasteride gel 0.25% significantly decreased hair growth in women with idiopathic hirsutism over six months without any reported side effects.

In this study, 15d-PGJ2 administered in a topical cream inhibited oxidative and inflammatory skin changes caused by UVB radiation in hairless mice, suggesting it as a promising treatment approach.

This study found that female pattern hair loss was present in 12.5% of PCOS patients examined, with most cases in younger women, highlighting early detection and management importance.

This study suggests that geranyl acetate may offer protective, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective effects against PPD-induced toxicity in keratinocyte cells, indicating its potential as a plant-derived treatment.

Female hair loss may be linked to heart health and aging.

This study found that although progerin expression in mouse skin causes significant nuclear shape changes in keratinocytes, it does not result in alopecia or common skin abnormalities seen in human Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome.

In this study, Polygonum multiflorum Radix promoted hair growth in mice, with oral administration being more effective, likely through FGF-7, while topical application favored SHH-related mechanisms.

Scalp micro-wounding helps promote hair growth in female pattern hair loss.

This study found that injecting PDGF-AA and -BB into mouse skin immediately triggered the hair growth cycle's anagen phase, suggesting potential treatment options for certain types of alopecia.

This article reviews the etiology of FPHL, distinguishing between androgen-dependent and androgen-independent forms, but reports no new clinical findings; it highlights the need to better understand its pathogenesis.

In this case study, a patient with moderate papulopustular acne showed improvement in acne scars and active lesions after three monthly treatments with autologous plasma-rich growth factors, which help regulate inflammation, inhibit bacterial growth, and restore collagen.

This study found that a poly herbal hair oil formulation significantly promoted hair growth in a pre-clinical mouse model.

The study found that IPI-926 was well tolerated up to 160 mg once daily for 28-day cycles and showed activity as a single-agent treatment in Hedgehog pathway inhibitor-naïve patients with basal cell carcinoma.

This study found that activating the hexosamine pathway increased hyaluronic acid secretion and hair follicle stem cell numbers in vitro, suggesting its role in modulating skin homeostasis.

This study found that isolated human scalp hair follicles express PGE2 genes and EP2 protein, suggesting PGE2 may play a crucial role in regulating hair growth.

This study found that plasma rich in growth factors (PRGF) as an adjuvant to follicular unit extraction (FUE) surgery may enhance hair graft performance and reduce post-surgical inflammation and pain in hair loss patients.
