In this study, the researchers reported that chloramphenicol-loaded liposomes, particularly those incorporating deoxycholic acid, enhanced follicular uptake and showed strong antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, offering potential for treating MRSA-infected skin conditions with good skin biocompatibility and minimal toxicity.

This study revealed that deficiency in the enzyme FA2H in mice affected sebaceous gland function, altered sebum composition, and caused cycling alopecia, highlighting FA2H's role in hair follicle homeostasis.

This review discusses recent research and applications of RADA16 and RADA16-based peptide scaffolds in biomedicine, including their roles in tissue repair and drug delivery, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that 50-nm PLGA nanoparticles delivered with iontophoresis enhanced skin permeation of indomethacin in rats more effectively than 100-nm nanoparticles, suggesting improved targeting of hair follicles.

This study found that the contribution of the hair follicle pathway to skin permeation of chemicals can be predicted using lipophilicity, with hydrophilic chemicals showing greater permeation reduction from hair follicle plugging than lipophilic ones.

This study found that the developed Finasteride-loaded SMEDDS improved the relative bioavailability of the drug compared to a commercial tablet, offering a promising oral delivery system for glucosteroid analogs.

In this study, a novel electrochemical sensor using a molecularly imprinted polymer was developed for the sensitive detection of minoxidil, successfully measuring its concentration in real samples.

Human platelets change minoxidil to minoxidil sulfate, helping blood vessels widen.

This study found that a ceria nanozyme-integrated microneedles patch accelerated hair regeneration in an androgenetic alopecia mouse model more effectively than minoxidil, with reduced application frequency and minimal skin damage.

This study found that the nanostructured lipid carrier formulation with a 70:30 solid to liquid lipid ratio significantly increased the dissolution rate, entrapment efficiency, and stability of spironolactone compared to its raw form.

This study used proteomic techniques to analyze human hair proteins, revealing keratin heterogeneity and identifying posttranslational modifications, such as cysteine trioxidation and methylation.

This study reported that the aqueous ethanol extract of Lygodii Spora demonstrated in vitro testosterone 5alpha-reductase inhibition and in vivo anti-androgenic activity, potentially due to oleic, linoleic, and palmitic acids.

This review explores research on nanoformulations for enhancing the topical delivery of herbal medicines, noting potential benefits like improved bioavailability and sustained delivery, and emphasizes the need for safety and toxicity guidelines in developing these novel drug delivery systems.

This study found that alkaloids isolated from Eclipta alba leaves showed increasing antimicrobial activity with higher concentrations, particularly against S. aureus and E. coli, suggesting potential for developing antimicrobial agents.

Tiny particles carrying roxithromycin can effectively target and deliver the drug to hair follicles without irritation.

This study found that Ecklonia cava enzymatic extract, particularly its component dieckol, promoted hair growth by increasing dermal papilla cell proliferation and inhibiting 5α-reductase activity in cultured vibrissa follicles and C57BL/6 mice.

This study found that Puerariae Flos extract inhibited testosterone 5α-reductase and promoted hair growth in mouse models, suggesting its potential use for treating androgenic alopecia.

This study found that ion-paired solutions significantly improved the skin penetration of risedronate in hairless mice compared to risedronate alone.

This study found that neutral liposomes were most effective at delivering minoxidil into pilosebaceous units compared to other tested formulations.

This article provides dermatology residents with essential information on cosmetic use to help manage skin conditions and reactions, without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that loading CoQ10 into a protransfersomal emulgel improved its stability and anti-ageing effects in UV radiation skin-aged induced-mice, without causing skin irritation.

In this study, researchers developed a new self-administered finasteride delivery system using powder-carrying microneedles that improved hair growth efficacy and addressed safety concerns compared to topical finasteride gel by allowing sustained intradermal release of the drug for three days with a single application.

This study identified several herbs, including Ganoderma lucidum and Urtica dioica, that showed promising 5α-reductase inhibitory activity suggesting potential use in managing androgenic disorders.

This study found that the sebum partition coefficient (K(sebum)) for some drugs differs from the stratum corneum partition coefficient (K(sc)), indicating its importance for targeted drug delivery into hair and sebaceous follicles.

This review compiles studies on the antidiabetic potential of plants from the Middle East, particularly from the Asteraceae and Lamiaceae families, but reports no clinical results.

This study found that co-delivery of minoxidil and caffeine in transfersomes with an optimized polysorbate formulation enhanced hair length and weight in vivo.

This study found that adiponectin significantly enhanced lipid production in human sebaceous glands and may be a potential target for treating conditions with reduced sebum production.

This review discusses the side effects and diseases related to hairstyles and hair treatments among black women, highlighting the need for thorough examination by dermatologists, but reports no new clinical results.
