In this in vitro study, baicalin promoted human hair follicle growth, potentially by enhancing VEGF secretion by dermal papilla cells.

This study found that aminoguanidine induces VEGF mRNA expression in stored hair follicle micrografts and outer root sheath cells, suggesting potential for enhancing growth factor production during storage.

This study found that finasteride effectively reduced VEGF expression and microvascular development in the retinas of early diabetic rats.

Topical minoxidil may help hair growth by improving blood flow to hair follicles.

This study confirmed that an injectable implant known as RISUG-PH™, when administered via the vas deferens, successfully delivers the drug Finasteride to the prostate in male rats for up to 28 days, suggesting a potential localized alternative to oral delivery methods.

Botulinum toxin-A may increase hair growth and reduce hair loss in men with baldness, and injecting near blood vessels can improve pain relief and last longer.

This review suggests that hair loss involves a complex interplay of androgen signaling with various regenerative and inflammatory pathways, challenging the view of dihydrotestosterone as the sole cause.

This narrative literature review by LUSTRAO examines the complex biological mechanisms influencing hair growth and loss, highlighting that androgen signalling, while significant, works within a network involving regenerative, inflammatory, and vascular processes, without establishing it as the sole explanation for conditions like androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, oral administration of strawberry guava extract promoted hair growth in both mice and humans, with active components like adenosine, fructose, digalactosyldiacylglycerol, and pedunculagin contributing by enhancing skin blood flow and activating dermal papilla cells.

This study identified a new dermoscopic feature, plexiform erythema, in lichen planopilaris lesions, suggesting it may indicate active disease and the potential need for more aggressive treatment.

Amlodipine cream may help hair growth by improving blood flow.

This review discusses the potential role of vascular endothelial cells as signaling niches influencing epithelial stem cell states in the skin, emphasizing the need for further exploration in this area.

This study found that hypoxic preconditioning of nanofat from donor mice reduced its vascularization capacity in vivo, suggesting that this approach cannot currently enhance nanofat's regenerative potential.

This study found that uric acid-linked microvascular dysfunction may play a role in alopecia areata, suggesting that targeting endothelial function and uric acid regulation could be a potential management strategy.

In this case report, a 31-year-old woman with severe multisystem lupus vasculitis initially presented with generalized pain and rapidly worsening neuropathy, ultimately improving with cyclophosphamide and prednisolone treatment. The authors highlight diagnostic challenges, particularly in interpreting autoantibody results after IVIG therapy.

In this case study, a neutered British Shorthair cat with diabetes mellitus showed fast remission of facial skin issues using off-label oclacitinib, with no recurrence for 17 months, but required surgery for eyelid cicatrization.

This case report describes a woman whose initial presentation of SLE was persistent watery diarrhea, diagnosed as lymphocytic enterocolitis, and shows that immunosuppressive therapy resulted in symptom relief.

This study found that multiparametric ultrasound effectively detects real-time scalp changes caused by vasoconstrictive cosmetic agents, demonstrating its potential as a non-invasive tool for evaluating trichological treatments.

VIP reduces hair pigmentation by decreasing melanin production.

This study reported no significant association between vaspin and visfatin -4689G/T gene polymorphisms and alopecia areata in the Turkish population, although the visfatin GT genotype may pose a risk factor for the condition.

This case study indicates that older patients with NMOSD may show favorable clinical improvements with aggressive treatment, even when the intervention is initiated later in the disease course.

This study reports that beta-glucan hybrid hydrogels, reinforced with laponite nanoclay, showed promising results in rat models for managing hemorrhage and diabetic wound healing by enhancing hemostasis, reducing inflammation, and promoting faster wound closure and tissue regeneration.

Hair transplant surgery using micropunch can cause blood vessel damage similar to vasculitis in some cases.

Vascular patterns in dermoscopy help tell apart malignant and benign skin tumors.

This case report highlights the successful use of platelet-rich plasma infiltration to treat vasopressin-induced bilateral foot digit gangrene in a 20-year-old female, suggesting its potential in stimulating angiogenesis and wound healing, though further research is necessary to assess its general efficacy.

This study examined the vasorelaxant effects of two similar alkaloids, chloroquine and cinchonine, in a model of smooth muscle contractions induced by phenylephrine. Results are not reported in the abstract.

In this animal study, rats treated with recombinant human growth hormone (at both low and high doses) experienced quicker burn wound healing than controls, with increased micro vessel density and altered expression of vascular endothelial growth factor, alongside changes in oxidative stress and inflammation markers.

In this study, a 5-year-old Angus bull experienced systemic granulomatous disease and vasculitis potentially associated with grazing on hairy vetch, but other bulls in the same pasture showed no symptoms, suggesting variability in disease manifestation from similar exposures.

In this study, FOL-026, a peptide based on osteopontin, was shown to promote angiogenesis and stimulate vascular cell proliferation and migration through neuropilin-1, similar to VEGF, suggesting potential therapeutic applications in vascular repair and angiogenesis-related conditions.

Vascular endothelial growth factor might be involved in common hair loss.
