In this study, a mixed-methods survey of 357 balding men revealed that baldness is structurally stigmatized, with many participants experiencing distress and using treatments to combat it; others resisted stigma and expressed minimal distress.

This pharmacovigilance study found strong disproportionality signals suggesting an association between finasteride and Peyronie's disease-related clinical features, but the evidence does not confirm a causal link.

This study suggests that the GDNF signaling pathway may enhance skin regeneration, as observed in axolotls and Spiny mice, indicating potential for similar processes in humans.

This review discusses the prevalence and clinical impact of menstrual abnormalities, acne, and hirsutism in young women with Cushing's syndrome and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that supplementing Liaoning cashmere goats with HMBi increased cashmere length while decreasing its diameter, attributed to changes in Met-related metabolites and elevated expression of genes related to the Met cycle and cell differentiation pathways such as Wnt and MAPK.

This study reported that while Intralesional Triamcinolone Acetonide injections effectively improved mouth opening in patients with Oral Submucous Fibrosis, it also led to symptoms of Cushing's Syndrome, highlighting the need for careful monitoring of adverse effects.

This review synthesizes findings from 15 animal studies on alopecia, identifying key biomarkers like TNF-α and IL-6 that suggest inflammation and follicular damage, offering insights into potential targeted therapies to balance degenerative and regenerative pathways for more effective treatment strategies.

In this study, maternal melatonin implantation in pregnant rabbits reduced hair follicle cell apoptosis and increased hair follicle density in their neonatal offspring, suggesting a beneficial impact on hair follicle development mediated through specific molecular pathways.

In this study, researchers observed that melatonin-mediated LncRNA MTC in Liaoning cashmere goat skin fibroblasts enhances cell proliferation by interacting with the GSTM1 protein, affecting its complex formation with ASK1 and thereby inhibiting apoptosis, which may be relevant for improving cashmere growth.

This review explores the risk factors, associated comorbidities, and psychological impacts of early-onset androgenetic alopecia, highlighting its complexity and potential implications for treatment response and overall health.

This study presented a case of tinea capitis in a 4-year-old without typical symptoms and traced the infection to Microsporum canis carried by domestic cats, highlighting the need for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment, especially in households with pets.

This study highlighted the significance of integrating single-cell RNA sequencing with spatial transcriptomics for improving cell-type identification in human skin, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive cell atlas.

This review discusses potential causes of alopecia and hair overgrowth in pediatric patients, detailing diagnostic techniques and treatments, but presents no new research findings.

In this study, exposure to m-Aminophenol in human keratinocytes altered the expression of thousands of genes involved in inflammation and stress responses, suggesting potential biomarkers for MAP-induced skin toxicity.

This article reviews genetic and phenotypic aspects of androgen insensitivity syndromes, emphasizing the diversity of mutations that complicates molecular screening and the importance of genotype-phenotype correlations.

In this study, Ageratum houstonianum ethanolic extract and its active component agerarin were found to promote hair growth and follicle elongation by increasing SCUBE3 expression via activation of MAPK–AP-1 signaling in human dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential therapeutic value for treating hair loss.

This study reviews the emerging role of protein S-palmitoylation in dermatology, highlighting its impact on skin functions like inflammation and barrier maintenance, and evaluating its potential as a therapeutic target for skin disorders such as alopecia and psoriasis.

In this study, XZYFD, a Traditional Chinese Medicine formulation, was found to improve androgenetic alopecia in a testosterone-induced mouse model by promoting hair regrowth, restoring follicular morphology, and modulating androgen metabolism, MAPK signaling, and lipid metabolism pathways, suggesting potential benefits for patients with metabolic dysfunction.

This review examines synthetic derivatives of curcumin for treating diabetes and cancer, reporting potential pharmacokinetic improvements and enhanced biological activity, but highlights ongoing challenges with bioavailability and stability, as well as gaps in translational research.

Hair follicle dermal stem cells help control hair growth timing by regulating signals at the hair germ–dermal papilla interface.

This systematic review found conflicting evidence on hair loss related to GLP-1 receptor agonists in adults with type 2 diabetes or obesity, with some studies noting hair regrowth and others reporting hair loss as a side effect. Further research is needed to understand this relationship.

This study found that Hashimoto's thyroiditis and alopecia areata show distinct gut microbial patterns, with specific microbes like Bacteroides fragilis and Microbacterium sp. T32 potentially linked to autoimmune activity.

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 review identifies and discusses various endocrine-related causes of hypertension in children and adolescents, emphasizing the role of genetic predispositions and highlighting the need for systematic diagnostic guidelines and genetic sequencing referrals to improve diagnosis and treatment strategies.

In this study, black wolfberry ferment was found to promote hair regrowth in mice with androgenetic alopecia by increasing hair weight, follicle count, and skin thickness, potentially through PI3K/AKT, NF-kappa B, and MAPK signaling pathways.

This review explores melatonin's role in hair follicle cycles and its molecular mechanisms that enhance antioxidant capacity and modulate gene expression, offering potential strategies to improve cashmere production and treating human alopecia, according to the authors.

This study found that while rat models treated with letrozole and dihydrotestosterone exhibit altered sterol, leukotriene, and steroid hormone profiles similar to human PCOS, significant differences remain.

This article explores the potential mechanisms by which polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN) could improve skin quality, slow aging, and enhance skin regeneration, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study observed that topical application of maslinic acid stimulated hair growth in mice comparably to minoxidil, possibly through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and involving ciliary gene activity, highlighting increased levels of trichogenic gene expression and protein levels.

This study identified specific keratin-associated protein genes that are highly expressed in different varieties and sexes of Angora goats, providing insights for improving mohair development through targeted breeding strategies.
