This study reported that a novel liposomal formulation, SP-bFGF-SF-LIP, enhanced bFGF stability and skin permeability, significantly improving hair follicle recovery and wound healing in a mouse model.

This study found that Nymphaea caerulea flower extract may improve scalp condition by reducing sebum production, inhibiting inflammation and microbial factors, and decreasing cortisol and vascular permeability.

Minoxidil absorbs poorly through skin, with low risk of side effects at 1-2% concentration.

This study found that nanocapsules formulated as a dispersion and applied with massage may enhance follicular uptake of clobetasol propionate while minimizing its skin penetration, offering a potential improvement over conventional treatments for scalp diseases.

This study found that coadministering minoxidil with tretinoin cream increased minoxidil absorption nearly threefold in healthy males, attributed to increased stratum corneum permeability.

This study reviewed existing literature on Androgenetic Alopecia treatments, finding that minoxidil promotes hair growth but can cause side effects due to its traditional formulations. Novel delivery systems like film-forming sprays may reduce these side effects and enhance efficacy.

Applying pseudoceramide improved skin and hair health.

This review discusses the essential role of linoleic acid in preventing deficiency symptoms and enhancing skin function, but notes that scientific knowledge on its potential therapeutic use for skin diseases remains limited.

This study found that PLGA nanospheres improved scalp-pore permeability and enhanced hair growth activities in mice, suggesting their potential as drug delivery carriers for hair growth ingredients.

This study found that drug delivery through human scalp skin may be more effective for lipophilic and hydrophilic drugs compared to abdominal skin, highlighting the potential of intrafollicular delivery methods.

In this study, researchers addressed the limitations of adenosine's practical application in treating inflammation, oxidative stress, and tissue repair due to its poor water solubility and low transdermal permeability. Results are not reported in the abstract.

This study investigated the impact of container-tip design and hair density on the scalp delivery of minoxidil in topical formulations, finding that higher hair density reduced delivery, particularly with larger tip containers, indicating the importance of these factors in product design.

This review highlights the challenges in developing nano-scale drug delivery systems for natural antioxidants in wound healing, pointing out issues like low solubility and skin permeability, and discusses potential solutions such as combining polymers and lipids to enhance delivery effectiveness.

This study evaluated new aqueous gel formulations of minoxidil without irritants and found that the calcium alginate gel showed the best performance in terms of drug release and skin permeation.

This study found that the stratum corneum of scalp skin in humans has distinct functional characteristics compared to the facial skin and volar forearm, including higher hydration levels and intermediate epidermal turnover rates.

The authors concluded that VSCAPSI, a videodermoscopy-based assessment tool, provides evidence for early diagnosis, differential diagnosis, follow-up, and screening of scalp psoriasis.

This article discusses how the balding scalp's exposure to UV and near-infrared light may accelerate aging, with changes detectable under ultraviolet light; it presents no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers found that washing hair 5–6 times per week results in higher satisfaction and better objective and subjective hair and scalp conditions among Asian populations, with no observed detrimental effects from frequent washing.

This study suggests that scalp rolling could be a promising and affordable adjuvant treatment for alopecia areata, potentially promoting hair regrowth by enhancing the effects of topical medications and inducing collagen.

This study found that oral probiotic supplementation over 12 weeks may improve hair growth, skin condition, metabolic health, and stress responses in Chinese adults with hair loss and a high risk of metabolic syndrome.

This study suggests that integrating barber care with medical treatment improves scalp condition and psychological well-being in early stages of hair loss, by enhancing medication efficacy and reducing stress.

This study emphasizes the need for personalized hair care strategies based on in-depth diagnostics, taking into account scalp type, environmental factors, and the microbiome, suggesting that this holistic approach could improve hair condition.

This study reported that albino Wistar rats exposed to chemical hair straighteners showed significant hair fiber damage and scalp skin deterioration, which worsened with repeated and prolonged application, highlighting the cytotoxic potential of these products and potential systemic risks.

Using high-throughput proteomics, this study identified 34 differentially expressed proteins in the lesional skin of adults with scalp psoriasis, suggesting a cytokine storm response linked to bacterial antigens.

In this in silico study, researchers found that the hair follicle's contribution to dermal permeability of small molecules varies with the lipophilic and hydrophilic properties of substances, highlighting the need for careful characterization of substances filling the follicular route when interpreting experimental permeability data.

This report describes two prepubertal children with autoimmune gastritis, highlighting the need to screen paediatric patients with organ-specific autoimmune diseases for co-existing conditions.

This study identified three genes with significantly higher expression in androgen-sensitive beard dermal papilla cells compared to androgen-insensitive scalp cells, suggesting potential novel signaling pathways in hair follicles.

This study established a pluripotent stem cell line from a patient with androgenetic alopecia, which can potentially be used to study the disease's pathological mechanisms.

This study found that short durations of heat and specific chemical penetration enhancers significantly improved the delivery of finasteride to human scalp skin and hair follicles.

The hair follicle's connective tissue is a key source of a certain collagen in human scalp skin.
