This study found that ultraviolet treatment for skin conditions such as vitiligo can damage hair, with psoralen plus ultraviolet A causing more follicle damage than narrow band ultraviolet B.

This study found that a hair-coating polyphenol complex significantly enhanced the mechanical strength, UV protection, and antistatic properties of damaged hair, suggesting potential benefits for hair treatment.

This study found that UVB radiation primarily causes hair protein loss, while UVA radiation mainly contributes to hair color changes, with no significant differences in mechanical properties observed between photooxidized and non-irradiated hair.

This study found that treating human hair with vitamin E and γ-oryzanol significantly reduced UV-B-induced structural damage, with γ-oryzanol providing greater protection, especially in female hair samples. The findings highlight these compounds' potential as cost-effective solutions for preserving hair integrity against UV damage.

This study found that UV radiation exposure during a simulated Brazilian summer caused more significant mechanical damage to natural hair than bleaching, although both caused comparable structural alterations, with double bleaching leading to the most severe protein degradation.

UV dermoscopy helps detect white hairs in children more effectively.

This study suggests that using UVFD to examine non-pigmented facial lesions can potentially enhance diagnostic accuracy and reduce unnecessary biopsies.

This study found that Melamax®, originally developed as an eco-friendly hair dye, provides significant protection against ultraviolet-induced oxidative and inflammatory damage in keratinocytes by modulating gene expression and signaling pathways, highlighting its dual potential for cosmetic coloration and skin photoprotection.

This report describes how ultraviolet-induced fluorescence dermoscopy helped accurately diagnose scalp disorders, specifically alopecia areata and tinea capitis, in pediatric patients.

In this study, UVFD and sUVRD techniques revealed distinctive characteristics of GD lesions, suggesting that GD might be more common in younger individuals and females than previously thought, possibly due to underdiagnosis. Incorporating dermatoscopy in exams may help improve GD detection and management.

This study observed that exposing human hair keratins to heat or UV treatments led to modifications in cysteine residues, disrupting crucial disulphide bonds and potentially reducing the structural integrity of hair similar to prolonged styling or sunlight exposure.

In this study, researchers developed a precise and rapid method for simultaneously analyzing minoxidil and finasteride in local therapeutic formulations, ensuring that the excipients did not interfere, making it suitable for routine quality control.

UV-enhanced trichoscopy helps diagnose hair shaft disorders like pili annulati.

This study found that ultraviolet-induced fluorescence dermoscopy enhanced the identification of follicular openings in alopecia areata, potentially aiding in the assessment of disease severity and treatment strategies.

This case report highlights the importance of early mycological diagnostics, supported by dermoscopy and ultraviolet-enhanced fluorescence dermoscopy, in preventing scarring from kerion celsi-associated hair loss in children.

This study found that ultraviolet-induced fluorescence trichoscopy can help differentiate between scarring and non-scarring alopecia and between psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis.

In this study, researchers observed significant differences in microbial composition between UV-induced fluorescent and non-fluorescent scalp areas in patients with androgenetic alopecia, noting a higher abundance of Cutibacterium in the fluorescent regions.

This study found that apocynin restored collagen production, reduced DNA damage and senescence, and protected skin stem cells from aging in UVB-exposed human keratinocytes.

This study found that apocynin restored COL17A1 expression in human keratinocytes and reduced UVB-induced cellular senescence, DNA damage, and cell cycle arrest.

This thesis found that inhibiting IL-17 and IL-23 improved chronic wound healing in obese, diabetic mice by promoting a pro-healing macrophage phenotype, while ST2 signaling was also necessary for effective wound healing.

This study concluded that topical psoralen and ultraviolet A photochemotherapy is an effective and safe treatment for alopecia areata, as it produced a good response in 43.8% of patients.

This study confirmed the presence of specific stem cell populations in SKH1 hairless mice skin, including CD34+/α6-integrin+ cells, which are important for investigating ultraviolet radiation-induced carcinogenesis.

Protecting hair and scalp from sunlight may help prevent hair loss.

According to this study, rice bran oil was as effective as 2% minoxidil in improving hair growth parameters, such as VEGF expression, follicle diameter, and hair length, in Wistar rats treated for 21 days, showing potential for preventing hair thinning associated with aging.

This study found that chronic ultraviolet-B exposure increased skin vascularization and wrinkle formation in mice, while overexpressing the angiogenesis inhibitor thrombospondin-1 reduced these effects, suggesting angiogenesis inhibition as a potential approach to prevent photo-damage.

This study found that narrowband UVB phototherapy alone is not very effective for severe alopecia areata, with improved responses noted primarily in patients also receiving corticosteroid injections.

This study discusses the role of CD8+ T-cell and interferon γ signaling in vitiligo's pathogenesis and notes that JAK inhibitors, which are FDA-approved for other autoimmune diseases, may offer a potential treatment path by blocking this pathway.

This study found that phototoxic psoralen and ultraviolet A therapy with topical 8-MOP was effective in treating alopecia areata resistant to other treatments, improving hair regrowth with minimal side effects.

This study found that both topical calcipotriol and narrow band ultraviolet B phototherapy improved hair regrowth and vitamin D3 levels in alopecia areata patients.

This study suggests that combining baricitinib with narrowband UV-B therapy is an effective and well-tolerated approach for treating active nonsegmental vitiligo.
