This study found that isotretinoin, a drug commonly used for acne, inhibits polyamine transport in Trypanosoma cruzi, leading to trypanocidal effects, and suggests its potential as a treatment for Chagas disease without affecting mammalian cell viability.

This review summarizes the current understanding of microRNAs in skin biology, highlighting their roles in processes like wound-healing and aging, without presenting any new experimental results.

This study found that oral administration of l-cystine with vitamin B6 effectively prevents environmental cigarette smoke-induced alopecia in mice by reducing hair bulb cell apoptosis.

This article reviews the potential role of prolactin as a neuroendocrine modulator in skin biology and pathology, discussing its relevance for conditions such as psoriasis and hair growth, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the potential of JAK inhibitors as a promising treatment strategy for alopecia areata, highlighting their mechanism and recent FDA approval based on clinical trial efficacy.

This review focuses on neuroactive steroids' influence on GABA-ergic signaling and discusses challenges in developing them for various therapeutic uses, citing recent excitement from FDA approval of allopregnanolone for postpartum depression but reporting no new results.

This review discusses the historical and current use of ribosome-inactivating protein-expressing plants in traditional medicine across various cultures and regions, highlighting their role despite a lack of scientific validation.

This study found that people with androgenic alopecia, particularly women, are more prone to anxiety and depression, often adopting avoidant coping strategies, which are linked to emotional and psychological impacts rather than clinical severity.

This review discusses the role of δ-subunit-containing GABA A receptors and neurosteroids in temporal lobe epilepsy, highlighting their plasticity and potential pharmacological implications, without reporting new clinical results.

In this study, stress experienced by transmen during early stages of gender transition was associated with reduced nocturnal blood pressure decline and increased C-reactive protein levels.

This review discusses the role of the mineralocorticoid receptor in skin biology, highlighting its potential involvement in keratinocyte and hair physiology, and proposes it may affect the side effects of glucocorticoid use.

The authors describe drug repurposing as a promising strategy for finding new uses for existing drugs, noting it is efficient, cost-effective, and poses lower risks than traditional drug discovery processes, potentially aiding in the treatment of rare and difficult-to-treat diseases.

This review explores the therapeutic potential of bee venom for treating various skin diseases, discussing its mechanisms and effects but reports no new clinical findings.

In this animal study, researchers found that cedrol, a constituent from Platycladus orientalis, significantly promoted hair growth in a dose-dependent manner in female C57BL/6 mice, surpassing results from blank control and 2% minoxidil groups over 21 days.

This review discusses the regenerative processes of lizard tails, particularly focusing on the diversity in blastema development across different species, and reports no new findings.

This study found that Schistosoma mansoni cercariae stimulate epidermal keratinocytes in mice, initiating pro-inflammatory responses and barrier repair mechanisms akin to those in wound healing.

This study found that combining herbal extracts with PRP increased human dermal papilla cell proliferation via ERK and Akt protein regulation, suggesting its potential for developing hair growth therapies.

This article reviews comprehensive surveys on the prevalence and impact of skin disease in resource-poor countries, but reports no new clinical results; it highlights challenges such as health literacy and service access.

This study suggests that apigenin may stimulate hair growth by downregulating TGF-ß1 gene expression in human epidermal keratinocytes and promoting hair follicle elongation in a rat hair follicle culture.

Raspberry ketone may help grow hair and improve skin elasticity.

This study suggests that chicken and alligator scales evolved independently through convergent evolution rather than sharing a common origin with avian feathers.

This study found that overexpressing PLC5 in Arabidopsis thaliana reduced root growth but improved drought tolerance, and suggests PIP2 is crucial for root hair growth.

This review discusses psychocutaneous syndromes, detailing their classifications and management strategies, but reports no new clinical findings; it underscores dermatologists' role in these cases.

This review discusses immunohistological and immunofluorescent methods for studying the human hair follicle cell cycle, reporting no new results, and suggests its potential for advancing cell cycle research.

This review discusses the clinical and molecular history of 5-alpha reductase deficiency, highlighting its role in male sexual differentiation and potential therapeutic applications, but reports no new research outcomes.

This review highlights that children with adrenal disorders may experience neurological and psychiatric symptoms, with potential long-term cognitive and behavioral effects from excess glucocorticoids.

This case report describes a patient with an allergic sensitization to minoxidil, indicating that such patients should pursue alternative therapies to treat androgenetic alopecia.

This paper argues that both the modern biomedical model and existing supplementary frameworks fail to adequately capture the complexities of empathy and healing within the context of postmodern thinking.

This study found that finasteride treatment in male rats led to enduring effects on depressive-like behavior, hippocampal neurogenesis and neuroinflammation, and gut microbiota composition after withdrawal.
