This study suggests that dihydrotestosterone plays a key role in the development of chronic allograft nephropathy, and inhibiting androgens may improve long-term kidney transplant outcomes.

Male pattern hair loss negatively affects quality of life, but drug treatments can help.

This review discusses diagnostic challenges and management approaches for pediatric hair disorders, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing between acquired and congenital conditions, and reports no clinical results.

This study found that only minoxidil encapsulated in cationic vesicles significantly promoted hair growth in mice, likely due to its higher retention on the skin.

Pollution exposure speeds up hair damage.

This study found that adipocytes in the interfacial white adipose tissue adjacent to fibrotic lesions in systemic sclerosis show unique phenotypes and contribute to the condition's pathogenesis.

This study found that a low-dose intermittent finasteride regimen significantly reduced hirsutism scores in adolescent girls with PCOS or idiopathic hirsutism, with similar efficacy but potentially safer and less expensive than continuous administration.

This study found that preserving hair micrografts in an enriched storage medium for five hours significantly increased their survival rate compared to those stored in saline.

In this study, patients with lichen planopilaris showed higher prevalence of autoimmune disorders like Hashimoto's thyroiditis and hypothyroidism compared to those with seborrheic dermatitis.

This study found increased IL-18 levels in the endometrium of women with polycystic ovary syndrome, especially in those who are overweight, suggesting a link with body mass index.

This study found that the protein CCN2 in dermal papilla cells is a physiologically relevant suppressor of hair follicle formation by destabilizing β-catenin, which may help maintain stem cell quiescence.

This study suggests that gel containing OSF3 loaded in niosomes offers high transfollicular penetration for topical anti-androgenic alopecia treatment with minimal systemic effect.

This study investigated a new formula called SV-loaded nanospanlastics for topical application to treat androgenic alopecia. It showed similar effectiveness to minoxidil lotion but with fewer adverse effects when used to enhance dermal delivery and efficacy of sodium valproate.

This source reviews Japan's extensive 2014 reforms and investments in regenerative medicine, exploring the government's initiatives to accelerate stem cell research while maintaining safety and efficacy.

TGF-β1 increases androgen receptor activity in hair loss, but Hic-5/ARA55 can counter this effect.

This notice provides information about JAMA Dermatology's website usage policy, and no research findings are reported.

This study reports that sequential high- and low-dose prednisolone therapy effectively promotes complete hair regrowth in 62% of children with severe alopecia areata, while minimizing severe side effects.

This report describes a case where a sex reassignment patient on estrogen therapy experienced complete hair regrowth on a previously fully alopecic scalp.

This review discusses the potential link between long-term transdermal exposure to sex hormones from antiperspirants and increased breast and prostate cancer rates, calling for further research to confirm this theory.

Knowing detailed head and neck anatomy is crucial for safe and effective facelift surgery.

This article reviews the relationship between hair loss and lithium but does not provide any new clinical findings.

This study found that 3D cultured hair follicle-like constructs, which include keratinocytes and dermal papilla cells, showed improved gene expression and cell interactions relevant to hair follicle development.

This study suggests that epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) from green tea may counteract DHT-induced hair follicle damage by modifying the miRNA expression profile in human dermal papilla cells.

In this study, trichoscopic features aiding differential diagnosis of alopecia in Korean patients were found to be similar to those in Caucasians, but pigment pattern frequencies differed due to racial characteristics.

This study found that the penetration enhancer SEPA™ significantly increased both the speed and amount of hair growth from minoxidil in balding stumptail macaques compared to Rogaine®.

This article discusses common dermatologic side effects of psychopharmacologic agents such as eruptions, urticaria, and photosensitivity, but it reports no new research findings.

This study found that the optimized finasteride-loaded lyophilized tablets using a self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system improved bioavailability in human volunteers compared to the marketed finasteride product.

This study found that glioblastoma cancer stem cells avoid immune suppression by downregulating TLR4, and restoring TLR4 signaling may reduce tumor growth and self-renewal.

This review discusses various methods to conceal hair loss, such as wigs and hair transplants, and reports no new clinical results; the authors evaluate each option's pros and cons.

This study found a relatively low prevalence of cutaneous reactions in chronic hepatitis C patients treated with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin, with reactions correlated to age and treatment duration.
