This case study reported that homeopathic treatment focusing on emotional stress and immune support led to positive outcomes in a patient with alopecia totalis following emotional trauma, suggesting a potential benefit of addressing both physical and emotional factors.

This study found that hair proteomics may serve as a promising, non-invasive biomarker source for stress-associated psychopathology, showing high accuracy in distinguishing patients with non-suicidal self-injury disorder from healthy controls.

In this study on mice, intensive stress through methods like resiniferatoxin injections and physical restraint was found to inhibit hair follicle growth, with the mechanism involving the sympathetic nervous system and the cAMP signaling pathway in hair follicle stem cells.

This article discusses the pursuit of more effective treatments for androgenetic alopecia due to its widespread psychological and social impact, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this laboratory study, the researchers found that combining dermal papilla cell-derived exosomes with collagenous sequences significantly enhanced hair follicle stem cell migration and proliferation, highlighting a potential strategy for hair regeneration through modulation of the hsa-novel-238a-CASP9 axis.

This review discusses gene editing techniques for breeding livestock, birds, and fish, concluding that they are key to advancing animal production by improving traits and efficiency.

This study observed that the Raman spectra of human hair cuticle vary with polarization and direction of signal collection, identifying certain spectral bands as markers sensitive to the structural changes in keratin secondary and tertiary structures.

This chapter reviews when to perform linear-strip excision vs. follicular unit excision for hair loss surgery, noting their respective advantages and disadvantages, without presenting new clinical findings.

This review article reports that oxidative stress is a key mechanism in the development of androgenetic alopecia, interacting with genetic and hormonal factors to damage hair follicle cells and potentially informing future treatment strategies.

This abstract discusses the prevalence and forms of lichen planopilaris, a type of scarring hair loss, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study review found that stem cells can be transformed into normal skin cells and skin organoids, offering promising methods for regenerating skin integrity and advancing both basic and clinical skin biology research.

This review highlights the potential of combining immune regulation, phototherapy, and dietary strategies for effective vitiligo treatment, but emphasizes that more research is needed.

This study found that oxidative stress markers, specifically MDA and H2O2, along with decreased SOD activity, may play a key role in the development of diffuse hair loss in the studied population.

This study found that recombinant human ADM2 treatment inhibited cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in human hair follicles, contrasting with the previously documented pro-proliferative and anti-apoptotic functions of ADM2.

This study suggests that a supercritical CO2 extract from wild-strawberry-processing waste may be an innovative and sustainable ingredient for cosmetic applications, particularly in treating androgenic-related skin conditions.

In this study, varying pH levels from 3 to 12 were found to impact hair structure and proteins, with optimal hair health observed between pH 5 and pH 7, while extreme acidic or alkaline conditions notably affected hair morphology and proteome.

This study investigated the effects of ammonium thioglycolate and amino methylpropanol hair straightening followed by permanent coloring, finding significant physical and chemical changes to both the cuticle and cortex of hair fibers.

In this study, patients with androgenetic alopecia experiencing stress had higher cortisol levels and altered neurotrophic factors compared to non-stressed patients, which correlated with more severe hair loss progression even after minoxidil treatment.

In this in vitro study, red ginseng extract and its main ginsenoside, G-Rb1, were found to protect human hair follicular keratinocytes from oxidative damage, preventing apoptosis, promoting hair growth, and modulating hair cycle transitions by influencing specific cellular signaling pathways.

This case report details a postmenopausal woman whose hyperandrogenism was attributed to ovarian stromal hyperplasia, ultimately resolved with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy.

This study found that among women with PCOS, the FokI CC genotype of the VDR gene may offer protection against acne and seborrhea, while the VDR-TaqI dominant genotype is associated with reduced oxidative stress.

In this study, researchers found that both oral and percutaneous applications of melatonin and lyotritone in laboratory rats enhanced hair quality and growth rate compared to a control group, which showed slower hair growth and lower hair quality.

This study found that root hairs of wild-type Arabidopsis grow faster and longer under low potassium stress, with changes in actin filament dynamics and specific regulation by the actin bundling proteins VLN1 and VLN4.

In this study, the researchers reported that a newly developed PYGL inhibitor, HTPI, enhanced hair growth in an ex-vivo culture by reducing oxidative damage in hDPCs and inhibiting glycogen degradation in hORSCs, showing potential as a treatment for hair loss comparable to minoxidil.

Tailored treatments for alopecia areata show promising results, with pulse steroids effective for mild cases and Ritlecitinib, Dupilumab, or methotrexate and prednisone effective for severe cases.

This study highlights the use of hair and fingernail cortisol levels as retrospective indicators of chronic stress, particularly in minoritized populations facing social stressors that increase the risk of mental health issues.

In this study, the researchers addressed the development of a new hair treatment prototype as an innovative alternative to current chemical hair straightening products, highlighting possible health risks and environmental concerns associated with conventional treatments. Results are not provided in the abstract.

In this study, researchers explored how hypoxic preconditioning affects the survival and oxidative stress resilience of nestin-expressing hair follicle stem cells and SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, focusing on changes in gene expression for HIF1α, BDNF, and VEGF.

This study found that inhibiting the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier in human scalp hair follicles caused metabolic stress that halted cell proliferation and disrupted key signaling pathways, with these effects partially reversed by an integrated stress response inhibitor.

This review summarizes techniques like Raman spectroscopy, nanoindentation, and small-angle X-ray scattering to explore the biophysical interactions in collagen fibers, aiming to enhance understanding of fibroblast behavior and mechanisms involved in organ fibrosis and healing processes.
