May 2026 in “Commagene Journal of Biology” This review found that anti-aging peptides show promise in cosmeceuticals due to their targeted actions to rejuvenate skin, but challenges like peptide stability, penetration, and limited clinical data limit their current effectiveness.
March 2026 in “Trends in Sciences” This review suggests that while platelet-rich plasma has the most robust clinical evidence, platelet-rich fibrin and concentrated growth factors are gaining favor due to their ease of use and absence of additives.
December 2025 in “Open Repository of the University of Porto (University of Porto)” Pharmacists play a crucial role in improving patient outcomes through personalized care and staying updated with scientific advancements.
This study utilized a mouse model of traumatic brain injury to reveal that acute neurotrauma triggers widespread lipid metabolism reprogramming and storage lipid accumulation in microglial and monocyte populations, leading to lysosomal dysfunction, inhibited autophagy, and exacerbated inflammation through a pathological feedback loop.
November 2024 in “International Journal of Research and Review” This review explores the application of nanotechnology in cosmetics, highlighting its role in enhancing skin penetration, sustaining drug action, and protecting against UV radiation, while also addressing regulatory considerations and potential exposure routes.
April 2024 in “Cell death and differentiation” This study discusses how different modes of regulated cell death in keratinocytes affect skin stem cell niches, and their role in skin inflammation, injury repair, and cancer, based on findings from human dermatological conditions and experimental mouse models.
April 2024 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” In a keratinocyte-specific knockout mouse model, this study found that deleting GRK2 disrupted hair follicle homeostasis, causing cyst-like structures, abnormal growth patterns, and eventual hair loss, suggesting potential links to immune-mediated alopecias.
February 2024 in “Biomedical materials” This study developed a new human in vitro hair model that replicates in vivo hair characteristics and may be suitable for high throughput screening of hair growth treatments.
December 2023 in “Curēus” In this case study, researchers reported the first instance of keratoacanthoma on the scalp of an elderly patient in Saudi Arabia, highlighting the diagnostic challenge due to its resemblance to squamous cell carcinoma.
October 2023 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” In this study, researchers found that while blocking either glycolysis or glutaminolysis in cancer cells did not prevent tumor growth due to metabolic flexibility, simultaneous inhibition of both pathways hindered carcinoma development, indicating multiple interventions may be necessary for effective metabolic manipulation in cancer treatment.
April 2023 in “Acta Poloniae Pharmaceutica” This study found that using Urtica cannabina extract shampoo led to increased levels of copper, zinc, and iodine in the scalp hair of Mongolian women, along with improvements in hair growth, diameter, and density compared to a regular shampoo.
This study found significantly higher P-Smad2 levels in both lesional and nonlesional skin of organ transplant recipients, suggesting elevated TGF-β signaling might contribute to their increased cancer susceptibility.
November 2022 in “Medicina Estética Revista Científica de la Sociedad Española de Medicina Estética (SEME)” This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a hair conditioner containing Serenoa serrulata extract and tocoferol applied 3-4 times per week for 90 days against androgenic alopecia.
October 2020 in “Veterinary Dermatology” This review discusses autoimmune blistering diseases across species and highlights new treatment efficacy findings and ongoing trials, but it reports no new clinical results.
June 2020 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that low-level pulsed wave red light stimulated collagen and ATP production in human fibroblasts with significantly shorter treatment time than continuous wave light, suggesting enhanced consumer compliance for skin treatments.
August 2018 in “Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology” Reflectance confocal microscopy helped diagnose and manage a woman's hair loss without needing a biopsy.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” The study found that, unlike in actinic keratosis and squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma tissues showed higher expression of nidogen1 and Col4 in both basement membranes and surrounding stroma compared to normal skin.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study observed that β-catenin overexpression in human squamous cell carcinoma cells led to increased CREB expression, which significantly enhanced clonogenic activity, suggesting CREB as a β-catenin-regulated factor promoting cancer characteristics.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that ERBB2 mutations and amplifications are likely key drivers of extramammary Paget disease, suggesting potential for targeted therapies and cancer immunotherapy due to the moderately high mutational load observed.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” In a clinical phase I/IIa study, subcutaneous injections of the peptide FOL-005 increased hair growth by 8% and were safe for treating alopecia.
January 2018 in “Springer eBooks” Terbinafine is the most effective medicine for fungal nail infections, especially for diabetics and those with weak immune systems.
April 2017 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that Quantitative Mass Spectrometry Imaging offers precise localization and quantification of active compounds in skin tissues, demonstrating benefits over traditional LC-MS in drug penetration studies.
