This paper reviews the use of interferons, particularly alfa interferon, in treating cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, noting its substantial efficacy both alone and in combination therapies with predictable, generally well-tolerated side effects.

In this study, researchers found that depleting mtDNA in mice caused skin wrinkles and hair loss but restoring mitochondrial function reversed these effects, highlighting mtDNA's significant role in skin and hair health.

This review explores the potential (neuro-)endocrine influences on hair follicle epithelial stem cell biology and emphasizes the need for more systematic research, but it provides no new empirical results.

This paper discusses the limitations of clinical trials in evaluating combination treatment regimens for Alzheimer's disease and ischemic stroke, highlighting the extensive resources required for such trials.

The study concluded that poly(propylene carbonate maleate) microspheres effectively encapsulated finasteride, achieving a biphasic release with prolonged drug release over 5-6 weeks in vitro.

This study suggests that prolactin has complex, gender- and location-dependent effects on human hair follicles, promoting hair growth in female frontotemporal scalp areas while inhibiting it in male occipital regions.

In this study, 1% procyanidin B-2 tonic significantly increased the number of total and terminal hairs on the scalp of male participants compared to a placebo after 6 months of use.

This study found that tannic acid accelerated wound healing in rats by modulating inflammatory cytokines, increasing growth factors, and activating the Erk 1/2 pathway.

In this study, oral administration of Crataegus pinnatifida extract was associated with hair growth promotion in mice by inducing anagen phase and enhancing cell signaling related to hair follicle development.

This study found that a novel missense mutation in the vitamin D receptor caused hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets with alopecia by disrupting protein function, highlighting the importance of DNA binding in hair development.

This study reported that microparticle-loaded emulsions containing caffeic acid achieved more homogeneous distribution and prolonged release in hair follicles, suggesting potential for effective folliculitis treatment.

This study found that procyanidin oligomers from apples and barley may stimulate hair growth by promoting hair epithelial cell proliferation and protecting them from apoptosis via MEK activation in a murine model.

This study found that keratin phenotypes were consistent across different types of hair from the same individual, allowing for successful keratin typing following ABH blood group determination.

This study demonstrated that human hair shafts can be anatomically separated to obtain intact micron and nano keratin filaments using solvents like performic acid and urea.

This study reports an association between the ESR2 gene variant rs10137185 and female-pattern hair loss in German patients.

Combination therapy with QR 678 Neo and 5% Minoxidil is most effective for male hair loss.

Hair increases in size when it absorbs water, and treatments like bleaching affect how much water it can take in.

This review discusses molecular testing for endocrine diseases, highlighting its diagnostic benefits and potential for prevention, particularly in conditions like multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 and adrenogenital syndrome, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the combination of Stemoxydine® and Resveratrol improved hair density in women with Female Pattern Hair Loss.

In this commentary, the authors discuss emerging evidence primarily from pharmacovigilance data and retrospective studies indicating a potential association between GLP-1 receptor agonists, like semaglutide and tirzepatide, and hair loss, although causality remains unproven, prompting recommendations for patient monitoring and further research.

This study found that curcumin spanlastics demonstrated greater antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer activities in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line compared to curcumin alone or curcumin nanocrystals, also affecting several cancer-related protein markers and showing enhanced solubility and activity.

This study developed a multipurpose herbal hair emulgel incorporating aloe vera, tea extract, coconut oil, and castor oil, aimed at promoting hair growth and controlling dandruff, hair fall, and greying. Evaluation found the product to be stable.

This research concluded that the novel hydrogel PlacMA, derived from human placenta and curable by visible light, shows promise for cell culture and tissue engineering applications due to its tunable properties.

This article reviews the role of hormones in human penis development and associated conditions due to hormonal imbalances, but reports no new findings, suggesting hormone replacement can manage some conditions.

This case study of a toy poodle with Cushing syndrome found that after unsuccessful initial treatments, hair growth and symptom alleviation occurred following daily administration of o,p'-DDD, despite initial side effects.

This study found that loss of Apc due to K14-cre-mediated gene recombination in mice led to aberrant growth in ectodermally derived squamous epithelia, implicating its critical role in specifying epithelial cell fates during embryonic development.

In this study, proliferative and necrotizing feline otitis externa in four domestic shorthair cats improved with topical 0.1% tacrolimus treatment, despite previous ineffective therapies.

This study reports that a short course of steroids resolved symptoms and hyperplasia in infants and young children with recurrent intussusception associated with intestinal lymphoid hyperplasia, suggesting consideration of steroids before surgery.

A woman showed neurological symptoms from psittacosis linked to bird exposure, improving after antibiotic treatment.

In this study, detailed examinations of alopecic lesions in two female Cronkhite-Canada syndrome patients suggested hair regrowth might occur without systemic corticosteroids if not required for gastrointestinal treatment, and hair loss may begin with anagen-telogen transition.
