In this study, researchers isolated gram-positive bacteria from acne lesions in 50 patients, finding that Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus, and Leuconostoc mesenteroides were present at varying frequencies, indicating multimicrobial causes for acne vulgaris.

In this study, G. brevis and M. myristica, alone or together, improved hematological and testicular antioxidant parameters in male rats with finasteride-induced reproductive toxicity, showing potential protective effects against oxidative stress and supporting therapeutic use for related male reproductive disorders.

This review summarized and classified 32 approved synthetic and natural-identical antioxidants, examining their regulatory status, safety, pharmacological properties, and effectiveness on human health, aiming to clarify their antioxidant actions and encourage further research in the field.

This study synthesized and verified the structures of Setipiprant's major and minor metabolites, confirming their regio- and enantioselectivity from earlier proposals in a clinical study.

This study found that 10,11-dibrominecrebanine (2Br-Cre) and Stephanine demonstrate significant anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties in various experimental models, with 2Br-Cre showing enhanced efficacy over Cre and both compounds potentially mediating their analgesic effects through opioid receptors.

This study suggests that enzyme-modified oriental medical prescriptions could be a promising ingredient for hair products due to their beneficial effects on hair growth and melanogenesis with minimal skin irritation.

This study reports that A132, a hair dye ingredient, induces phototoxicity and photogenotoxicity via mitochondrial apoptosis when exposed to sunlight, suggesting potential risks of oxidative stress and hair damage.

This study examined finasteride degradation under stress conditions, identifying three unique degradation products in acidic environments, providing insights into impurity profiling and quality control for finasteride formulations.

This study suggests that rat skin may synthesize minoxidil sulphate independently, implying the skin could contribute to minoxidil's hair growth promotion without help from the liver or other organs.

This study suggests that combining finasteride with traditional herbal formulas Yongdamsagan-tang or Paljung-san may not interfere with drug metabolism while potentially enhancing anti-inflammatory effects for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study concluded that a synthesis process for finasteride from pregnenolone acetic ester is inexpensive, simple, and achieves a good yield of 36.5%.

This study identified that the biosynthetic pathways for coumestans in Eclipta prostrata are derived from acetate and shikimate pathways, while phenylpropanoid biosynthesis is exclusively from the shikimate pathway.

This study found that an optimized microemulsion for minoxidil with high solubility, permeation flux, and skin deposition can be achieved with specific low and high levels of certain surfactants and co-solvents.

This study found that ingesting seeds from the Lecythis ollaria tree may cause hair loss and other toxic effects in animals.

This study reports a new method for selectively synthesizing finasteride Form-I in good yield using water as an ecofriendly solvent at room temperature.

This study found that newly synthesized steroidal trienones demonstrated stronger 5α-reductase inhibitory activity compared to dienones in various biological models, suggesting potential for developing enhanced antiandrogenic drugs.

In this study, researchers produced a biosurfactant from yeast that effectively reduces surface tension, acts as a good oil emulsifier, demonstrates antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, and exhibits no cytotoxicity, suggesting its potential use in eco-friendly cosmetic formulations.

This study found that in a rat model, 14,15-EET may alleviate central poststroke pain by enhancing thalamic inhibition through neurosteroid signaling, potentially outperforming gabapentin in early-stage treatment.

This study found that Origanum vulgare extract significantly ameliorated finasteride-induced liver and kidney damage in mice by improving biochemical indices, reducing inflammation, and enhancing antioxidant status in a dose-dependent manner.

In this study, the reconstructed skin epidermal model derived from hair follicles showed gene expression and enzyme functionality consistent with native human skin, suggesting its viability for studying skin metabolism and potential toxicity of dermo-cosmetic ingredients.

This report describes the first documented case of an oral overdose of the extra strength 5% minoxidil solution, resulting in severe hypotension and requiring intensive medical intervention.

This article discusses the role and potential of plant stem cell extracts in cosmetics for their antioxidant and protective effects on skin cells, reporting no new clinical results; the authors highlight ecological and sustainable production methods.

This study reported that the expression of sulfotransferase enzymes in hair follicles remained stable during treatment with topical minoxidil, indicating consistent metabolic activity throughout the treatment period.

In this study, oxidation hair dye formulations tested on mice showed no evidence of causing systemic toxicity or cancer over an 18-month period.

In this study, incorporating a novel amino acid compound into a hair-straightening formulation improved humidity-resistant straightening and enhanced the surface and mechanical properties of hair fibers, including increased bending stiffness, reduced friction, and better shape retention under high temperature and humidity conditions.

In this study conducted using an in vitro model with rabbits, researchers found that citral from lemongrass oil, especially at a 1% concentration, improved comedone erythema and tissue hyperplasia, suggesting its potential as a treatment for comedone acne.

In this study, treatment with the oral contraceptive containing 30 μg ethinyl oestradiol and 150 μg desogestrel significantly reduced androgen-dependent hair growth in hirsute women over one year.

This review discusses the efficacy and safety of exemestane as a treatment for estrogen-receptor-positive breast cancer and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, lysocellin induced G1 phase arrest in human osteosarcoma cells, but diminished the cytotoxic efficacy of etoposide, while its derivative alopestatin may reduce etoposide-induced alopecia in a rat model.
