This review summarizes causes and treatments of androgenetic alopecia with a focus on herbs as potential alternatives, but reports no new results and suggests more research is needed to validate these options.

This study identified the AtPRPL1 gene in Arabidopsis thaliana as being involved in cell elongation processes, despite unclear changes in cell wall composition from its altered expression.

In this study, Geranium sibiricum L. extract promoted hair growth in vitro with human dermal papilla cells and in vivo in mice, outperforming minoxidil by proliferating cells and stimulating growth factor expression, suggesting its potential as a hair growth treatment.

This study found that TSC2-null fibroblast cells from TSC skin hamartomas can induce hair follicle formation and hamartomatous changes in keratinocytes, with active mTOR signaling observable in a mouse xenograft model.

This review explores research on nanoformulations for enhancing the topical delivery of herbal medicines, noting potential benefits like improved bioavailability and sustained delivery, and emphasizes the need for safety and toxicity guidelines in developing these novel drug delivery systems.

This study found that men with androgenetic alopecia treated with pumpkin seed oil for 24 weeks experienced a notable 40% increase in hair count compared to a 10% increase with a placebo.

This research suggests that targeting the HIF-1α pathway via PHD inhibitors may enable regeneration similar to amphibians in mammals, potentially fast-tracking regenerative therapies from mice to humans.

This review found evidence supporting the effectiveness and safety of topical minoxidil for treating female pattern hair loss, though many included studies were at high risk of bias.

This study found that a combination of 5% hexane extract of Curcuma aeruginosa and 5% minoxidil slowed hair loss and increased hair growth in men with androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that cepharanthine can inhibit gastric cancer cell activity by inducing oxidative stress and altering energy metabolism, suggesting its potential for gastric cancer treatment.

This study found that red ginseng oil and its major components improved hair regrowth in testosterone-treated mice by promoting an earlier anagen phase and altering related gene expressions.

This review covers the connection between thyroid diseases and skin conditions like alopecia, dermatitis, and vitiligo, and highlights the need for further research on the role of thyroid hormones in skin health.

In this study, petroleum ether extract of Citrullus colocynthis fruit effectively promoted hair growth in a mouse model of androgen-induced alopecia, showing comparable results to the standard treatment, finasteride.

This review explores the significant impacts of hormonal changes within normal physiological ranges and suggests examining low-dose effects from chemicals disrupting hormonal activity; it presents no new clinical results.

This case report describes a 27-year-old woman with lupus erythematosus whose biopsy findings indicated that lupus panniculitis can mimic alopecia areata, leading to temporary hair loss.

This study found that glutathione deficiency affects lateral root and root hair responses to indole butyric acid in plants, but not to indole acetic acid, indicating its role in auxin pathway regulation.

This review suggests that hair transplantation may be a viable treatment option for certain primary scarring alopecias, although findings should be interpreted cautiously due to possible publication bias favoring positive results.

In this study, researchers reviewed recent advances in using nanoencapsulation technology to improve the pharmacological treatment of alopecia, suggesting its potential to enhance drug delivery and reduce adverse effects compared to conventional methods.

This study found no significant difference in the CAG and GGN repeat lengths between infertile and fertile men in Nigeria, but identified a unique GGN allele distribution in the Nigerian population compared to Caucasians.

This study reports that milk goats exhibit significantly more differentially expressed genes related to hair follicle cycling across different months compared to cashmere goats, especially in December.

This study explored hair follicle gene expression in Inner Mongolia Cashmere goats and identified potential regulators of the transition between growth phases, including IL17RB and ZNF genes.

This review summarizes preclinical and clinical information on herbal products for hair loss treatment, highlighting their mechanisms, follicular penetration, and potential side effects, suggesting they may offer alternatives to synthetic drugs with fewer side effects.

This study developed lipid-core nanocapsules for encapsulating menthol, improving its solubility and thermal stability, and demonstrated their safety and rapid skin absorption in ex vivo tests, highlighting potential applications for cosmeceuticals.

This study observed that the NOTCH signaling pathway may contribute to the development of fibrosis in systemic sclerosis by affecting epithelial cell changes, and inhibiting this pathway could prevent fibrosis in experimental models.

In this study, a dual recombinase-mediated genetic system showed that cavity macrophages accumulate on the surface of visceral organs during lung and liver injury but do not penetrate or contribute to tissue repair.

This review reports that women with polycystic ovary syndrome are at 28%–50% higher risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection, with increased rates of COVID-19-related hospitalization, morbidity, and mortality.

This review discusses the epidemiology, clinical manifestations, and pathogenesis of autoimmune skin diseases and their associations with thyroid diseases, reporting no new clinical results.

This review examines hormonal influences on acne development and available hormonal therapies but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Ganoderma lucidum extracts reduced prostate enlargement and improved symptoms in testosterone-treated rats, suggesting potential benefits for managing benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This review discusses recent advances in understanding the pathogenesis of autoimmune alopecia areata and reports no new clinical results; it highlights potential for developing more effective treatments.
