This study investigated a liposomal hydrogel system for delivering minoxidil and tretinoin to treat androgenic alopecia, finding that the system enhanced skin permeation of minoxidil while retaining tretinoin on the skin and was non-irritating in animal tests, suggesting its potential effectiveness.

This exploratory study found that cannabidiol (CBD) at higher concentrations may inhibit hair growth by promoting the onset of catagen in human hair follicles, while lower concentrations showed potential anti-inflammatory effects without promoting catagen.

This study successfully developed a method to measure four flavonoids from Platycladus orientalis leaves in rat plasma, which was used in a pharmacokinetic study on healthy rats.

This review discusses the phytoconstituents and biological properties of T. orientalis and T. occidentalis, but reports no new clinical results.

This study concludes that egg shell membrane hydrolysates, particularly Fraction I, may effectively mitigate UV-B radiation-induced wrinkles and promote skin collagen and hyaluronic acid production, suggesting potential use in functional cosmetics.

This study found that pregnane derivatives with higher lipophilicity, like compound 9d, had stronger androgen receptor binding and greater antiandrogenic effects in rats, correlating relative binding affinity with log P values.

This review highlights the promising potential of microemulsions and nanoemulsions in (trans)dermal drug delivery, noting a gap in understanding their distinct mechanisms and composition-related effects on skin permeability, while emphasizing the limited clarity on mesostructures and cosolvent impacts.

This study found that Centipeda minima extract promotes hair growth by activating Wnt/β-catenin, ERK, and JNK signaling pathways in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells.

This study found that ethanol extract of Tubtim Chumphae rice bran downregulates SRD5A gene expression, similarly to finasteride, suggesting potential use as an anti-hair loss product.

This study found that both ethanol and aqueous extracts of Lepidium sativum seeds improved insulin signaling and reduced obesity-related metabolic changes in high-fat diet-fed rats, suggesting potential as a dietary supplement.

This review discusses the analysis of pharmaceutical relics from prehistoric times to the twentieth century and emphasizes the need for a multifaceted approach, but it presents no new experimental results.

This study found that dutasteride reduced β-amyloid plaque load in a cerebral amyloidosis model, seemingly linked to mitochondrial apoptosis and autophagy processes.

This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to create a detailed atlas of human scalp hair follicles and found that early-stage hair graying involves matrix hair progenitor depletion linked to P53 pathway activation.

This study found that the n-hexane fraction from Leea indica leaves significantly increased hair growth in mice and showed potential as a natural treatment for alopecia.

In this study, the herbal complex of Houttuynia cordata, Perilla frutescens var. acuta, and green tea promoted hair growth in C57BL/6 mice, enhancing regrowth and follicle development compared to controls.

This study reported that compounds isolated from Alpinia zerumbet significantly promoted hair cell growth and exhibited anticancer activity in cell cultures, suggesting potential as treatments for alopecia and cancer.

This study found that the polymorphic forms I, II, and III of finasteride can be prepared purely, with form III being identical to what was previously referred to as form X.

This study found that ethanol extracts of Allium tuberosum Rottler ex Spreng significantly promoted hair growth in mice, possibly by increasing IGF-1 expression.

This study found that finasteride selectively inhibited UGT1A4 in vitro but is unlikely to cause clinically significant drug interactions mediated through hepatic UGT enzymes in vivo.

This study developed an inexpensive method to provide initial data on both the photostability and toxicity of pure active principles and their photodegradation products.

Nanocarriers could improve how drugs are delivered through the skin but require more research to overcome challenges and ensure safety.

This study found that red-flowered cultivars of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis displayed the highest antioxidant activity, phenolic, and flavonoid content compared to other colored cultivars.

This study identified certain benzopyran derivatives with a bulky tert-butyloxycarbonylamino group as effective KATP channel openers that inhibit insulin secretion in rat pancreatic islets.

This study developed a rapid and sensitive HPLC method for measuring finasteride in bulk and tablet forms, showing high precision and accuracy compared to the official method.

This study reported a simple and validated gas chromatography method to accurately measure finasteride in tablets, showing equivalency to the official method with no significant differences.

This study reported that newly synthesized progesterone derivatives significantly reduced prostate weight in testosterone-treated hamsters, with 5alpha-reductase inhibitory activity dependent on the size of the substituent at C-17.

This study introduced a new method for extracting red mordant dyes from wool fibers that preserved the fibers for further analysis and allowed for spectrophotometric examination of the dyes' absorption curves.

This study found that a transdermal delivery system using 3% azone and P407 gel may enhance the skin permeation of doxazosin and finasteride for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study found that a topical transethosomal system may enhance the skin penetration and deposition of naftifine compared to a marketed cream, potentially overcoming the stratum corneum barrier.

In this study, lecithin-based microparticle formulations of minoxidil showed enhanced skin penetration and comparable hair growth effectiveness to commercial products in mice, while minimizing skin irritation often seen with standard minoxidil solutions.
