This case report describes a 27-year-old woman with lupus erythematosus whose biopsy findings indicated that lupus panniculitis can mimic alopecia areata, leading to temporary hair loss.

This review discusses the complex links between polycystic ovary syndrome, insulin resistance, and potential metabolic risks starting in adolescence, noting the need for early screening and treatment but reports no new clinical results.

This review highlights the potential of natural product-derived compounds, such as flavonoids and alkaloids, to reverse multidrug resistance in tumors, emphasizing their role in regulating signaling pathways, proteins, and genes related to MDR, and aims to guide future research efforts in this area.

In this study, the methanol extract of Cercidiphyllum japonicum heartwood was found to stimulate the proliferation of mouse hair epithelial cells, with several isolated compounds showing significant proliferative activities.

In this review, researchers examined the physiological benefits of Cheonggukjang, a salt-free fermented soybean paste, highlighting its various health-promoting components that may contribute to improved heart health, diabetes management, and cancer prevention, among other benefits.

This study found that arctiin, a compound from Arctium lappa, demonstrated protective effects against oxidative stress-induced dysfunction in human hair dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential therapeutic use for alopecia.

This study found that colchicine treatment significantly reduced hair fiber elongation in cultured hair follicles and altered protein expression and activity in dermal papilla cells, suggesting a role for the ubiquitin-proteasome system in its effects.

This study found a strong correlation between antioxidant activity and phenolic content in rosemary, influenced by bioclimatic and seasonal factors in different stages of Tunisia.

This study found that a thyroid hormone receptor ẞ subtype-selective thyromimetic was effective in promoting hair growth in mouse and monkey models when applied topically.

In this study, male-pattern baldness was strongly associated with a higher risk of keratinocyte cancers, particularly squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma, likely due to increased sun exposure on the scalp rather than androgen levels.

The researchers found that HOXC13 regulates different keratin proteins in a mixed manner, with certain SNPs impeding this regulation, while also demonstrating negative-feedback by HOXC13 and positive regulation by LEF1 and melatonin on the HOXC13 promoter.

This case report illustrates the risk of skin necrosis in patients with high antiphospholipid antibody levels after stopping anticoagulation therapy, highlighting the necessity for careful monitoring.

This study suggests that Houttuynia cordata extract may promote hair growth by stimulating dermal papilla cell proliferation and extending the anagen phase through enhanced energy metabolism and gene expression changes.

This study developed and validated a reliable method to measure finasteride levels in human plasma, which was successfully used to assess its pharmacokinetics after a 5 mg dose in healthy volunteers.

In this case report, two plywood mill workers developed allergic contact dermatitis due to exposure to uncured phenol-formaldehyde resin, not sawdust as initially suspected.

In this study, the use of two emollients significantly reduced itching severity in individuals with xerotic eczema, starting 30 minutes post-application, and improved skin moisture and lipid content over 14 days, while demonstrating good tolerance with few adverse events.

This study identified significant changes in the expression of nine proteins in the nucleus accumbens of rats treated with finasteride, suggesting potential novel targets for its neuropsychiatric effects.

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 reported that the compound (1R, 2S)-4-(2-cyano-cyclohexyl-oxy)-2-trifluoromethyl-benzonitrile effectively stimulated hair growth in mice and reduced sebum production in hamsters.

This study found that ATM protein plays a crucial role in protecting human hair follicle melanocytes from oxidative stress, which is linked to the greying of hair.

This study suggests that PrEP implants for HIV prevention are potentially acceptable among gay and bisexual men, with positive attitudes toward implant features and minor insertion-related effects.

This study found that irregular menstrual cycles in Brazilian adolescents were significantly associated with a higher occurrence of metabolic syndrome and polycystic ovary syndrome indicators.

This study suggests that minoxidil may serve as a suitable reference drug for high permeability classification in the Biopharmaceutics Classification System due to its consistent permeability across different intestinal segments and pH levels.

In this study using data from young women in West Bengal, India, the researchers identified that leptin signaling impairment, insulin resistance, and specific gene mutations significantly contribute to PCOS, with obesity commonly manifesting in affected individuals.

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 dependencies between genetic variants and various phenotypes related to fetal and early childhood growth and neurological development in healthy infants, suggesting significant gene candidates for further investigation.

This study demonstrated that the biomimetic peptide PTP20 may help preserve hair pigmentation and reduce greying by enhancing melanocyte function and increasing melanin production in human hair follicles.

This article describes the synthesis of novel polyamine-modified minoxidil analogs and conjugates to potentially enhance minoxidil's biological activity, selectivity, and water solubility, but reports no new biological results.

This study identified aging-related epigenetic and transcriptomic biomarkers and suggested that curcumin might target and inhibit the JUN gene, implicating potential therapeutic strategies against aging.

This study found that two MC4R gene polymorphisms are associated with higher BMI in women with PCOS in western Saudi Arabia, but are not linked to PCOS itself.
