Scalp Roller therapy helped improve hair growth in patients with hard-to-treat alopecia areata.

In a retrospective cohort of patients with steroid 5 α-reductase 2 deficiency, this study identified seven novel genetic variants in the SRD5A2 gene, expanding the variant database and contributing to improved diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for the condition.

In this study, both physician and patient reports revealed that more severe alopecia areata was associated with higher emotional symptoms and greater activity limitations among patients.

The study found that dermal EZH2 plays a crucial role in coordinating dermal fibroblast differentiation and epidermal development by modulating Wnt/β-catenin and retinoic acid signaling.

This case study found that isotretinoin treatment achieved complete resolution of erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp in a patient, suggesting systemic retinoids as a potential treatment option.

This study analyzed the genetics of the patchiness phenotype in New Zealand rabbits and found that the gene KRT82, with identified SNPs in its promoter, may serve as a potential biomarker for breeding these rabbits.

This study concluded that the hairless protein interacts with the vitamin D receptor to repress transcription crucial for hair cycling, employing multiple protein interfaces and modulating chromatin structure.

This study found that rabbits fed a diet deficient in Vitamin E developed severe muscular dystrophy that was not fully prevented by adding selenium, Vitamin E supplements, or natural feedstuffs, indicating other nutritional deficiencies.

This research found that a novel dehydroepiandrosterone derivative (12) significantly reduces cell viability and increases apoptosis in testosterone-stimulated normal and tumor prostate cells, unlike finasteride and dutasteride, which also showed activity under dihydrotestosterone stimulation.

This study reported that exogenous R-spondin-1 can restore hair follicle neogenesis in adult mouse cells, highlighting differences in gene expression and signaling pathways between fetal and adult dermal papilla cells.

In this study, ALRV5XR treatment significantly increased terminal hair density in men with androgenetic alopecia after 24 weeks, while also decreasing vellus hair density, and was well tolerated without adverse events, suggesting its potential efficacy over standard therapies.

In this study, researchers observed that the skin quality and hair follicle development of Rex rabbits improved when slaughtered in winter compared to summer, with findings suggesting seasonal regulation via multiple signaling pathways affecting fur characteristics.

This study concluded that a new model of reconstructed human epidermis using keratinocytes from plucked hair follicles offers a less-invasive alternative to conventional skin-derived models for skin research.

This study suggests that 2% minoxidil and Kerium may promote hair regrowth in rats, while Aminexil showed the least effect among tested treatments; human-use products varied in efficacy in this animal model.

This case report observed a 5.5-year-old girl with Ectodermal Dysplasia-Syndactyly Syndrome 1, who experienced improved hair density and thickness with topical minoxidil and tretinoin, suggesting a potential adjunctive role for topical retinoids, though confirmation in larger studies is needed.

This study reports a novel mutation in the TP63 gene associated with T and B cell lymphopenia in an EEC patient, suggesting that EEC diagnosis should include TREC assay and evaluation for immunodeficiency.

In this study, researchers found that the glabrous skin of the rat forelimb contains sparse Meissner corpuscles and Merkel complexes, with more slowly adapting afferents in the palm and rapidly adapting afferents in the digit extremity.

Farudodstat may effectively treat alopecia areata without harmful side effects.

This case report reviews the management of Rowell syndrome in a patient initially diagnosed with Rhupus syndrome and highlights their development of erythema multiforme after certain medications.

Teledermatology reduces unnecessary in-person visits and improves care.

The researchers reported that the petroleum ether extract of Cuscuta reflexa may promote hair growth in testosterone-induced alopecia in mice by inhibiting the enzyme 5α-reductase.

This study established a novel in vivo "whisker follicle microinjection assay" using mouse whiskers to evaluate hair growth and pigmentation effects of various chemicals and proteins, identifying minoxidil, ruxolitinib, and RSPO1 as growth promoters, while deoxyarbutin inhibited pigmentation and Nbl1 emerged as a growth inhibitor.

This review compiles existing knowledge on the botanical characteristics, traditional uses, phytochemistry, and pharmacological activities of Eclipta alba, highlighting its potential therapeutic properties and encouraging further pharmacological and phytochemical exploration of this traditionally used medicinal plant.

In this study, researchers found that Derinat treatment in mice maintained the hair cycle in the anagen phase and reduced TRPCs-mediated intracellular ROS accumulation, potentially improving hair growth by altering the skin microenvironment.

This study found that combining electrical stimulation with minoxidil had a synergistic effect on the proliferation of cultured human dermal papilla cells, potentially through enhanced activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

This study found that the long-pulsed ruby laser effectively delays hair growth and has the potential for permanent hair removal with minimal pain and side effects, offering an advantage over traditional hair removal methods.

This study found that acute sleep deprivation enhanced 5α-reductase expression and activity in the rat prefrontal cortex, and finasteride treatment reduced associated psychosis- and mania-like behaviors.

This study found that the rs1128977 SNP in the RXRG gene may be linked to altered clinical characteristics such as higher HDL-cholesterol levels and increased body mass index in individuals with dyslipidemia.
