This article discusses various diagnostic techniques for investigating equine skin diseases and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Ganoderma lucidum fruiting body powder improved cholesterol profiles and hair follicle health in rats exposed to a tumor-promoting agent, suggesting potential chemopreventive properties against skin abnormalities.

In this study conducted at the Veterinary Clinical Complex in Bikaner, Rajasthan, researchers found that among 240 canine dermatitis cases, 25 dogs had demodicosis, characterized by various hematological and serum biochemical changes, and distinctive histopathological alterations in skin samples.

This study investigated the sub-acute toxicity of Eclipta alba extract in Wistar albino rats, finding generally comparable hematological and biochemical parameters to controls, but noted mild morphological liver and kidney changes at the highest dose, highlighting a key area for further safety research.

This study found that repeated use of a protein hair conditioner, followed by hot air and gamma irradiation, may lower serum collagen I and increase heat shock protein concentrations in rats, suggesting potential cumulative risks.

This study found that female pattern hair loss may be influenced by genetic factors and hormonal changes, particularly in young adults, and identified specific dermoscopic features associated with the condition.

This study suggests that while hair analysis using GC-MS is a sensitive method for detecting cocaine ingestion, it may not reliably indicate the amount, timing, or duration of drug use due to interindividual variability and multiple incorporation mechanisms.

This study suggests that selective photothermolysis of sebaceous glands using free electron laser pulses may offer a novel approach to treating acne by causing targeted thermal damage without affecting the epidermis.

In this study, Far2-/- mice were observed to develop focal alopecia with altered sebaceous gland morphology and lower skin lipid levels compared to wildtype mice.

This study observed that in Japanese females, hair lipid composition showed significant correlations, suggesting CH and CERs may act as a barrier against sebum-derived lipids.

Hair grows like a crystal at a solid-liquid interface without cell division.

This meta-analysis found that lower serum SHBG levels are associated with an increased risk of PCOS, and improving SHBG levels through treatment may reduce PCOS complications.

In this study, human hair follicles were maintained in a serum-free medium for up to 12 days, revealing detailed histological and ultrastructural changes that suggest possible catagen-like involution mechanisms.

This study found that curcumin supplementation in adults significantly increased serum adiponectin levels and decreased leptin levels, based on a meta-analysis of 13 randomized controlled trials.

This study identified 18 significant metabolites and two enriched metabolic pathways, necroptosis and ABC transporters, in serum samples of acne patients with and without insulin resistance, potentially aiding in the clinical diagnosis and drug development for these patients.

This systematic review and meta-analysis reports that patients with alopecia areata have significantly higher serum levels of IL6 and CRP, and lower levels of vitamin D, compared to healthy controls.

This study constructed a model using serum levels of BMP2, CD8A, PRF1, and XCL1 as a non-invasive biomarker to accurately predict recurrence in patients with alopecia areata.

This study observed that testosterone concentrations in hair segments show some stability over time, but are influenced by factors like sebum integration, hair washing frequency, and individual hair growth rates.

This study developed a novel method to simultaneously measure finasteride, dutasteride, and related biomarkers in serum, finding that both drugs lowered DHT levels while increasing substrate concentrations.

This case report describes a man who ingested a large amount of topical minoxidil solution and experienced serious and prolonged cardiovascular effects despite rapidly decreasing serum concentration levels.

This bibliometric analysis identified SGK1 as a key factor in cancer, showing that its dysregulation can lead to tumor growth and treatment resistance. The authors highlighted SGK1's potential as a therapeutic target, but note that further research is needed to develop effective treatment strategies.

This meta-analysis found an association between lower vitamin D levels and increased risk of Alopecia areata, though causation cannot be established due to the study designs.

This retrospective analysis reported significant increases in testosterone levels in men with testosterone deficiency using the Daily Subcutaneous Testosterone method combined with hCG and anastrozole, indicating its potential as a treatment option.

This retrospective study found that serum hormone levels and MRI detection of ovarian nodules contributed to distinguishing virilizing ovarian tumors from ovarian stromal hyperthecosis in postmenopausal women, though histopathology remains crucial for diagnosis.

This review highlights that human hair is a valuable biological matrix for clinical and toxicological analyses, demonstrating its applicability in detecting various active substances from different pharmacological classes.

This study developed and validated a highly sensitive method using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry for accurately analyzing nine neuroactive steroids in human serum, which could enhance understanding of disease pathophysiology and support new biomarker and therapeutic discovery.

This study mapped the development of the human pilosebaceous unit in prenatal scalp skin using multi-modal analysis, finding that epithelial-mesenchymal interactions guide cellular fate and validated tissue-patterning through a hair-bearing skin organoid model.

This study found low serum ferritin and vitamin B12 levels in a significant portion of women with chronic telogen effluvium, while vitamin D deficiency was less common.

This article reports no new data; it describes the role of sebum in influencing the skin microbiome and epithelial tissues and discusses its altered composition during transit through the sebaceous duct.

In this study, nanoemulsion formulations were found to significantly enhance the skin retention of the antiseptic agent triclosan, with the optimal mixture being a low surfactant concentration, as demonstrated through quantitative and qualitative analysis using tape-stripping and micro CT scans.
