This study found that white wax and its extract may promote hair growth in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia by inhibiting 5α-reductase activity and increasing cell proliferation, with efficacy surpassing finasteride.

This study suggests that policosanol may prevent androgenetic alopecia in mice by regulating hormone levels and suppressing premature hair follicle entry into the regression phase.

This cross-meta-analysis examined policosanol biorefining methods in 18 Ibero-American countries, reporting that Cuba, Spain, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Portugal show significant advances, but highlighted the need for better coordination between academia and industry for improved yield efficiency.

This overview describes the Dermatologic Surgery journal's extensive coverage of cosmetic and reconstructive skin surgery, but it reports no new research findings.

In this study, researchers developed microcapsules and effervescent tablets containing policosanol from insect wax, achieving high encapsulation efficiency and rapid water dispersion, effectively addressing the challenges of solubility and psychological acceptance in consuming insect-based lipids.

This study found that insect wax can significantly promote hair growth in mice in a way that is comparable to minoxidil, likely due to the upregulation of VEGF expression.

This study found that white wax and its extract significantly promoted hair growth in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia, outperforming finasteride by inhibiting 5α-reductase activity and enhancing cellular proliferation.

In this study, the use of two emollients significantly reduced itching severity in individuals with xerotic eczema, starting 30 minutes post-application, and improved skin moisture and lipid content over 14 days, while demonstrating good tolerance with few adverse events.

This review discusses the functional and nutraceutical importance of wheat straw, emphasizing its bioactive compounds and potential benefits, and reports no new experimental findings.

Natural products can safely and effectively treat various human diseases.

In this study, among postmenopausal women with female androgenetic alopecia, the combination of Pygeum africanum and Serenoa repens extracts at higher doses plus MSM significantly increased total hair growth and hair resistance compared to a lower dose formulation after 16 weeks.

In this study, the combination of Serenoa repens extract with Phenolmicin P3 and Bosexil suppositories significantly improved lower urinary tract symptoms and decreased PSA levels in patients with benign prostatic obstruction-related symptoms.

Chitosan-decorated carriers may improve topical finasteride delivery for hair loss treatment.

This study found that both a proprietary ultrahigh-pressure extract and a hexanic extract of saw palmetto showed comparable inhibition of 5α-reductase, suggesting similar potential for managing symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study suggests that polymersomes decorated with chitosan improve the transdermal delivery of finasteride, providing an alternative drug delivery system with higher drug retention in the skin.

This study reported that a new polymeric formulation for topical minoxidil delivery in an animal model improved hair growth and hair follicle formation more effectively than minoxidil in PBS, suggesting potential as a future hair loss treatment.

This study explored the effects of USPlus® DERM, a bioactive fatty acid extract from Serenoa repens, in promoting hair growth and enhancing hair follicle stem cell stemness in an ex vivo setting, showing potential for both 5‐α reductase-dependent and independent hair loss treatments.

In this study, researchers formulated a topical gel containing β-sitosterol for alopecia treatment and found it demonstrated good 5 alpha reductase inhibitory activity in vitro, comparable to a commercial product, indicating its potential for further antiandrogenic activity investigation.

This case report suggests that exacerbations of alopecia areata in a 40-year-old woman may be associated with sodium tetradecyl sulphate foam sclerotherapy treatments for varicose veins.

This study found that Soluplus and L-ascorbyl 2,6-dipalmitate nanoparticles may improve minoxidil's skin permeability through stable hydrophobic interactions, enhancing its potential for targeted skin application.

In this study, researchers developed a composite paste system using minoxidil-loaded nanoparticles and valproic acid, enhanced by roller-microneedles, which significantly stimulated hair regeneration and perifollicular vascularization in an androgenetic alopecia mouse model, reducing side effects compared to traditional treatments.

In this study, rice bran supercritical CO2 extract demonstrated potential to promote hair growth in mice, increasing hair follicles and growth factor expression, similarly to 3% minoxidil.

This review discusses the use of supercritical carbon dioxide for extracting rice bran oil, noting its advantages over conventional methods for preserving nutrients and antioxidants, but provides no new experimental results.

This study suggests that using cholesterol-free liposomes, specifically PPD-Lip, as a delivery system with dutasteride may enhance the treatment of androgenetic alopecia by promoting hair regrowth in mice models.

This study found that polysorbate 60 was ineffective for promoting new hair growth in male pattern baldness, as no significant difference was observed compared to placebo.

This study suggests that nanoliposomes encapsulating saw palmetto CO2 extract could be effective for delivering drugs to treat hair loss due to their small size, dispersion, and negative charge.

This study reports that pumpkin seed oil-loaded niosomes significantly decreased hair loss and increased hair growth indicators in vivo, suggesting potential as a natural anti-hair loss therapy.
