This study reports the development of a microemulsion using Momordica charantia extract, which demonstrated strong antioxidant and 5α-reductase inhibitory activity, potentially aiding hair loss management. The microemulsion was stable over 12 weeks, suggesting its future potential for cosmetic or pharmacological applications.

This study observed that skin dryness does not seem to indicate impaired epidermal barrier function, as there was no negative correlation between stratum corneum water content and transepidermal water loss.

This study observed that hair follicle morphology in dairy cows changes during the peripartum period, with fluctuations in hair follicle width and anagen percentage but no overall marked changes in skin morphology parameters.

ZNF750 and MPZL3 are important in causing seborrheic dermatitis.

In this study, seborrheic dermatitis was most prevalent among middle-aged adults and men, with patient presentations peaking during the winter months.

This study found that torsional measurements can effectively distinguish the effects of hair care products on the cuticle versus the cortex of hair fibers, unlike tensile measurements.

In this study, a computer-aided imaging system accurately measured the width of balding areas in female pattern hair loss, correlating strongly with clinical staging severity.

This study demonstrated that liquid-state vesicles may reduce the absorption of finasteride through the skin while increasing its concentration and retention in the dermis layer in hamster models.

This study proposes the sebogenic hypothesis, suggesting that hair follicles evolved from primitive sebaceous glands to facilitate lipid transport and improve water retention in early land-dwelling animals.

This study is the first to document alopecia in Guadalupe fur seals in the Northeast Pacific Ocean, finding that it may result from nutritional stress due to higher sea surface temperatures.

This study found that Geranium Sibiricum L extract may promote hair growth by increasing cell proliferation and migration while modulating cytokine expression in human dermal papilla cells under stress conditions.

This study found that leukocytes and beard hair follicle cells have an endogenous circadian clock, with PER1 and PER3 expression possibly serving as biomarkers for assessing individual biological clock traits.

This study found that maintaining tension-force balance in a human skin equivalent improved characteristics of skin homeostasis and structure, suggesting potential as an alternative to animal models for studying skin physiology.

The authors concluded that steatocystoma multiplex is a rare dermatological condition with poor treatment outcomes, emphasizing the importance of early recognition and psychological support for affected individuals.

This study found that in non-obese women with moderate body hair growth, DHEA-S and prolactin levels were higher, and SBP was lower compared to controls, which may inform treatment decisions.

This study developed a co-design framework using finite element analysis to optimize bubble microneedles, achieving controlled tip separation and effective drug delivery through the skin and mucosa while maintaining insertion strength.

In this study, despite morphological differences in the hair growth cycle stages, the lipid composition of the epidermis and dermis showed no significant variation, though water content and cholesterol levels differed between these skin layers.

This article does not include an abstract and reports no new clinical findings; it discusses Demodex blepharitis that mimics eyelid sebaceous gland carcinoma.

This article describes a newly developed portable instrument for measuring hair density, emphasizing its significance in advancing hair restoration techniques.

This study found that the Meibomian gland shares structural and cytokeratin composition similarities with hair follicles, and plays a role in hyper-keratinisation observed in obstructive Meibomian gland dysfunction.

This study suggests that Equisetum debile extracts, particularly the ethyl acetate fraction, may offer natural cosmeceutical benefits for treating hyperpigmentation, delaying skin aging, and remediating hair loss due to androgenic alopecia.

This review examines the potential pathogenicity of Demodex mites in skin disorders, considering systemic factors like immunological imbalance and microbiome changes, but reports no new clinical findings.

This article updates a diagnostic tool (SALT II) for assessing hair loss by adding more precise measurements of scalp surface area, particularly useful for various types of alopecia.

This study found that finasteride ethosome formulations with specific ethanol and soya lecithin concentrations significantly enhanced transdermal drug delivery compared to a potential nanogel.

This study assessed whether the elemental composition of human hair could serve as a marker for kidney stones, cholelithiasis, hypertension, and diabetes, but it reports only variations in element content along hair regions.

This study found that PTEN regulates the number and genomic stability of hair follicle stem cells in the skin, with its deficiency leading to increased stem cell accumulation and senescence through interactions with BMAL1 and BMI-1.

This study used molecular dynamics simulations to illustrate the complex molecular behavior of the hair surface F-layer, highlighting how fatty acids interact with 18-MEA under different conditions.

This study described a new assay for measuring cortisol in hair and found it may serve as a useful biomarker for long-term cortisol exposure, correlating with 24-hour urine cortisol levels in non-obese subjects.

In this study, researchers observed low variability in hair formoterol concentrations for COPD patients with stable adherence, but inter-patient differences and other factors may limit the effectiveness of hair analysis as a reliable tool for assessing medication adherence.

This study found that clove oil and LPGSE pretreatment increased finasteride skin permeability, while extending urea pretreatment reduced its penetration.
