This study reported that the aqueous ethanol extract of Lygodii Spora demonstrated in vitro testosterone 5alpha-reductase inhibition and in vivo anti-androgenic activity, potentially due to oleic, linoleic, and palmitic acids.

This article discusses Hair-thread Tourniquet Syndrome in children, emphasizing the need for prompt examination and intervention to prevent severe complications, but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that most hirsute patients on combined cyproterone acetate and 'Diane' therapy experienced a reduction in hair growth, with hair becoming softer, thinner, and lighter in color over 12 months.

This study found that bio-based waterborne polyurethanes derived from castor oil may offer effective hair-styling performance without skin irritation and appear to be safer for the environment compared to traditional hair sprays.

This review compiles data on Platycladus orientalis leaves, noting their diverse pharmacological activities and advocating for more research to clarify their traditional blood-cooling and hematostatic uses.

This review explores how low-energy He-Ne laser therapy may stimulate repigmentation in vitiligo by affecting mitochondrial pathways and melanocyte function, but does not report new clinical results.

This study developed a new protocol to efficiently produce skin dermal stem cells from human induced pluripotent stem cells, which may aid in treating various skin disorders.

In this study, thread-embedding therapy enhanced hair regrowth in C57BL/6 mice by regulating growth factors associated with hair follicle anagen development and promoting cellular proliferation in hair follicles.

This study found that microneedling combined with calcipotriol plus betamethasone was more effective in treating vitiligo than microneedling with tacrolimus, particularly in difficult-to-treat areas.

This paper reviews the genetic aspects of hair disorders and suggests that understanding these genes could advance treatment and diagnosis; it reports no new experimental findings.

This case report describes a 3-year-old boy with trichothiodystrophy, highlighting specific MRI findings of diffuse dysmyelination and osteosclerosis that may be unique to the disorder.

This study suggests that the cell membrane complex in hair cuticles contains hydrophilic regions with disulfide bonds allowing polymer uptake and hydrophobic lamella-like lipid layers.

Some oils can penetrate hair and reduce the stickiness between fibers, but mineral oil cannot.

In this study, researchers found that non-invasive analysis of skin surface lipid RNAs revealed alterations in gene expression patterns associated with atopic dermatitis, suggesting its potential for understanding skin disease pathophysiology.

This study reports that the white rhinoceros has a unique integumentary structure among large herbivores, characterized by thick epidermis, organized collagen bundles, and the presence of coiled sweat glands.

This case report describes a 29-year-old woman with longstanding alopecia areata who experienced improvement in her scalp hair loss after 7 years of topical treatment with squaric acid dibutylester.

High MUC-18/MCAM levels in blood indicate a worse outlook for melanoma patients.

In this study, a psoriatic patient developed retinoid-induced granulation tissue after long-term oral etretinate therapy, suggesting prolonged use may lead to delayed wound healing.

This review highlights promising recent advances in therapies for epidermolysis bullosa, including gene therapy and stem cell approaches, but reports no definitive cures and emphasizes the need for further research.

This study found that Pep-1-mediated mitochondrial transplantation was as effective as PRP therapy in restoring hair loss related to aging in mice, with distinct improvements in hair and skin-related measures.

This study found that Chamaecyparis obtusa oil increased hair follicle cell proliferation and maintained the anagen phase in mice, suggesting a potential for promoting hair growth.

In this study, a herbal extract mixture significantly reduced IL-1α gene expression in HaCaT cells, suggesting it may aid in the treatment of nonscarring alopecia.

This study found that t-flavanone may promote hair growth in people with androgenic alopecia by enhancing hair anchoring strength and upregulating desmoglein expression in hair follicles over 30 weeks.

This study found that non-ionic silicone emulsion best protected hair color from UV-induced fading, outperforming honeysuckle extract and benzophenone-3, with significant effects in both dyed and virgin hair.

This study suggests that TGF-alpha may function in an autocrine or juxtacrine manner rather than promoting cell proliferation during hair growth cycles in ferrets and sheep.

This study found that NKIRAS2 expression affects skin tumor suppression and HRAS-driven transformation in mice, indicating its role in carcinogenesis depends on expression level and cellular context.

This study demonstrates that miniaturized hair follicles in female pattern hair loss overexpress nuclear aryl hydrocarbon receptors, suggesting a potential role for environmental pollutants in this condition.

Elkonyxis, a rare nail condition, improved when patients stopped their nail-picking habits.

This case report describes a patient with primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma who developed an alopecic atrophic patch potentially due to pressure, following rituximab treatment.

This article discusses scalp reductions for male-pattern baldness and reports potential challenges, such as stretch-back and scar-related styling issues, without providing new clinical results.
