This study found that an optimal combination of ethnomedicinal extracts from East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, significantly increased hair length in mice, suggesting potential as a natural agent for hair growth through antioxidant mechanisms.

This study concluded that the combination 3 of the Nusa Tenggara Timur Ethnomedicinal Formula shows strong antioxidant activity and significantly increases hair follicle thickness in a chemotherapy-induced alopecia model in mice.

In this study, researchers developed an optimized formulation of a traditional ethnomedicinal recipe from East Nusa Tenggara, which demonstrated strong antioxidant activity and significantly enhanced hair growth in a mouse alopecia model, compared to control groups.

In this study, a possible case of Wolf’s isotopic response was observed, where a 72-year-old woman developed superficial basal cell carcinoma at a prior herpes zoster site on her scalp, possibly due to altered local immunity from the zoster episode.

This study at NYU Langone Health suggests that younger patients with androgenetic alopecia may experience greater improvements in hair density with PRP treatment compared to older patients, who might need more sessions for similar results.

Photobiomodulation did not significantly improve hair density in dogs with alopecia X.

This case report highlights a 7-year-old boy with suspected Netherton syndrome who presented with itchy lesions, hair abnormalities, and elevated immunoglobulin E levels. The authors report complete resolution of symptoms with oral Acitretin after failed methotrexate treatment.

This study of baricitinib in adults with severe alopecia areata found that after initial success, 10.9% of participants lost treatment response by Week 152. Factors like longer disease duration and severe baseline symptoms were more common in those losing response.

This case report details a rare instance of a young male with coexisting autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 2 and anti-GAD65 antibody-associated stiff person syndrome, where symptoms improved by adding intravenous immunoglobulin therapy, emphasizing the importance of awareness for early diagnosis and treatment.

In this pilot randomized clinical trial, TRT combined with finasteride increased lean mass, muscle size, and bone mineral density without prostate enlargement in men with spinal cord injury, suggesting potential benefits for body composition and musculoskeletal health.

This study found that inhibiting the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier in human scalp hair follicles caused metabolic stress that halted cell proliferation and disrupted key signaling pathways, with these effects partially reversed by an integrated stress response inhibitor.

In this study, researchers found that polysulfides in human hair keratin contribute to hair strength and antioxidant capacity, with sulfur supplementation enhancing hair strength and cuticle structure amid oxidative stresses such as UV radiation.

This study reports that folliculitis decalvans and lichen planopilaris phenotypic spectrum is an underdiagnosed form of cicatricial alopecia, potentially treatable with anti-inflammatory drugs used for lichen planopilaris.

Biopsies matched initial diagnoses in 76.6% of black women with alopecia and led to treatment changes in 44% of cases.

This study found that psoriasis patients on biologic therapy had significantly lower anti-COVID19 IgG antibody levels after vaccination compared to healthy individuals not on biologic treatment.

This study suggests that human dermal papilla cells respond to hypoxia by increasing the expression of HIFs, TGF-β2, and BMP4, which may influence hair cycle regulation.

This report details a 6-year-old girl with adrenocortical cancer presenting with voice changes, weight gain, and excessive hair growth, successfully treated with surgery and medication, with symptoms resolved after 6 months.

This study suggests that a third Covid-19 vaccine dose is necessary to maintain protection, especially among immune-compromised individuals and those with comorbidities, emphasizing the urgent need for vaccine access in less developed regions.

In this case report, a 9-year-old boy with diffuse alopecia areata showed improvement with topical diphencyprone immunotherapy, suggesting it as a safe and effective treatment option in pediatric cases of alopecia areata resistant to other therapies.

This study found that yellow dots seen under dermatoscopy are a sensitive and specific indicator of treatment response in alopecia areata, showing significant reduction as early as four weeks.

This review discusses the evidence for biotin supplementation in treating hair loss, concluding that its benefits are poorly supported by data and advising against routine use without more compelling future trials.

This study found that Mdm2 is critical for limiting p53 activity to maintain normal stem cell function in mouse skin, with impacts on tissue homeostasis and aging.

There is no abstract available for this article on the effects of percutaneous oestradiol implants on the skeletons of postmenopausal women, and thus no new findings are reported.

Mouse hair cells respond to male hormones by growing less, and this can be stopped by certain blockers.

Minoxidil helps hair grow and stand up.

In this study, a copper-deficient diet in rats led to a significant decrease in blood and liver copper levels without causing clinical symptoms, while hair leachable copper and bone copper remained unchanged.

This study reported that platelet-rich plasma injections led to only temporary improvement in vellus hair characteristics in temporal triangular alopecia, suggesting it may not be an effective long-term treatment.
