This study observed that most hirsute patients on combined cyproterone acetate and 'Diane' therapy experienced a reduction in hair growth, with hair becoming softer, thinner, and lighter in color over 12 months.

In this retrospective analysis, combination therapy with tofacitinib and oral minoxidil led to significant scalp hair regrowth in patients with severe alopecia areata, with 67% achieving at least 75% regrowth, although the small sample size limits the findings.

This study found that injecting autologous dermal sheath cup cells significantly increased hair density and diameter in male and female pattern hair loss compared to a placebo for up to 9 months.

In this study, an injectable hydrogel incorporating antibacterial agents was shown to effectively heal wounds and promote hair follicle and capillary regeneration, offering a promising approach for skin tissue engineering.

This review examines the diverse roles of SRD5α enzymes across species, focusing on their involvement in steroid synthesis, sexual development, and various physiological processes, but reports no new clinical results.

This case series reports the experience of using oral minoxidil at 1.25 mg/day in 32 patients with male androgenetic alopecia, noting both therapeutic effects and potential adverse reactions.

This study found that the pharmacological inhibition of 5-α reductases with finasteride and dutasteride can reduce neurosteroid synthesis in glioblastoma-derived cell lines, potentially impacting GBM survival.

This case report describes total alopecia in a 53-year-old woman after 13 months of tamoxifen treatment for breast cancer, with normal hair distribution maintained elsewhere.

This study found that PRP injections using the Eclipse system significantly improved hair density and caliber in women with androgenetic alopecia compared to saline placebo at 24 weeks.

This study found that insulin promotes corneal epithelial wound healing and nerve recovery in diabetic mice through Wnt signaling, suggesting its potential as a protective factor for diabetic corneal damage.

In this study, intradermal injection of botulinum toxin was associated with increased hair growth in men with androgenetic alopecia through the suppression of TGF-β1 secretion from dermal papilla cells.

This article discusses the challenges of treating lichen planopilaris, reviews various therapeutic options including minoxidil, and reports no new clinical findings.

This article notes the lack of physician-reported outcome studies supporting the efficacy of off-label spironolactone in treating female pattern hair loss, despite its common prescription alongside FDA-approved topical minoxidil.

This study observed that aging leads to significant structural and biological changes in the scalp's hair follicle environment in women, which may affect hair growth.

This study observed a significant increase in telogen effluvium cases among people of color during the COVID-19 pandemic in NYC, notably affecting Hispanic/Latinx individuals.

This systematic review found inconclusive evidence on the effectiveness of botulinum toxin for treating alopecia and highlighted the need for further prospective randomized controlled trials.

This study found that knockdown of PCAT1 inhibited hair follicle regeneration in nude mice by disrupting the miR-329/Wnt10b axis and Wnt/β-catenin signaling, highlighting PCAT1's role in promoting follicle regrowth.

This study found that both oral tranexamic acid and microneedling improve melasma treatment outcomes when added to standard therapy, with microneedling showing a more sustained remission.

This study found that finasteride impaired object recognition memory and altered hippocampal dendritic structures in male 3xTg-AD mice, suggesting potential sex differences in Alzheimer's disease pathology.

In this study, miR-324-3p was found to promote differentiation and migration in cultured keratinocytes and is highlighted as a potential target for treating androgenic alopecia.

This article discusses platelet-rich plasma therapy for cicatricial alopecias like lichen planopilaris and reports no confirmed new clinical results; the authors highlight ongoing uncertainty about its effectiveness and potential risks.

This study found that mild-to-moderate COVID-19 was not associated with worsening in patients with pre-existing alopecia areata.

In this study, pantothenic acid at 20 μg/ml was observed to promote dermal papilla cell proliferation and migration, likely through up-regulation of ID3 and inhibition of Notch signaling.

In this study, knockdown of XIST in 3D-cultured dermal papilla cells inhibited hair follicle regeneration by interfering with miR-424 and hedgehog signaling, highlighting XIST's role in hair development.

This study suggests that oral tofacitinib may be an effective treatment for beard regrowth in men with alopecia areata of the beard, with a strong correlation observed between beard and scalp hair regrowth.

This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia exhibit specific miRNA expression profiles, suggesting that abnormal miR-133b expression may inhibit the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and affect hair growth.

This letter discusses the limited adaptation of low dose oral minoxidil for androgenetic alopecia in North America and reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest safety concerns or unclear dosing may be factors.

This study developed an efficient LC-MS bioanalytical method to simultaneously quantify minoxidil sulphate and latanoprost in skin layers, supporting the formulation of topical treatments for androgenic alopecia.

In this study, certain genetic variations in the ESR1 and ESR2 genes were strongly associated with polycystic ovary syndrome and related metabolic issues in Tunisian women.

This study suggests that 5-alpha reductase inhibitors may reduce invasive cancer features and improve survival in men undergoing radical cystectomy for high-grade urothelial carcinoma, although further research is needed to confirm these findings.
