Among in vitro and in vivo models, this study found that Miscanthus sinensis var. purpurascens flower extract may promote hair growth, potentially by modulating growth factor expressions and facilitating earlier hair follicle transitions in treated mice.

This review discusses the disparities in approved treatments and evidence-based guidelines for various chronic skin diseases, highlighting greater unmet medical needs in conditions like hidradenitis suppurativa, alopecia areata, and vitiligo compared to psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.

In this study, transverse sectioning of scalp biopsy samples showed higher diagnostic accuracy than vertical sectioning for noncicatricial alopecia, although both techniques are important for accurate diagnosis.

In this study, adding platelet-rich plasma to minoxidil and finasteride treatment for patterned hair loss improved hair outcomes with minimal side effects compared to using minoxidil and finasteride alone.

This study suggests that vellus to terminal hair follicle reconversion can occur in male pattern androgenetic alopecia using an in vivo model with minoxidil and platelet-rich plasma treatment.

This case report describes a 36-year-old female patient with panhypopituitarism, experiencing severe adrenal insufficiency and thyroid hormone deficiency, which led to electrolyte imbalance, QT interval prolongation, and ventricular tachycardia; treatment stabilized her condition, underscoring the importance of hormonal evaluation in arrhythmia assessment.

This study found that under optimized extraction conditions, the Gleditschia fera fruit extract contained a high level of saponins and demonstrated notable antioxidant activity.

This article discusses new guidelines recommending finasteride for asymptomatic men during prostate cancer screening to reduce disease risk, but notes no impact on mortality; it reports no new results.

This study suggests that PrPC plays a role in the differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells during neurogenesis, impacting neural progenitor cell development.

This study developed a herbal hair oil using garlic leaves, coconut oil, castor oil, hibiscus flower powder, and amla extract, finding it enhances scalp nutrition, reduces hair loss, and maintains favorable aesthetic attributes with appropriate stability and consistency for hair application.

In this study, researchers examined common chemotherapy side effects among 100 Pakistani cancer patients and explored the potential side effect reduction through hunger-based differential chemotherapy. They found widespread adverse reactions, with only 18% willing to fast for over 24 hours.

This review provides information on the biological activity and chemical composition of various Rumex species, finding that some have pharmacological potential, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that in semi-coarse wool sheep of the Ukrainian Carpathian Mountain breed, changes in microflora and grease composition are linked to increased felting in wool, due to wetter, more alkaline fleece conditions that promote bacterial and mold growth and alter fatty acid balances.

This review discusses the use of human-to-mouse xenografting to study human skin processes in vivo, highlighting its importance for understanding skin regeneration and pathology while identifying knowledge gaps and challenges in applying these findings to human skin.

This review discusses the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles and modern technologies like 3D bioprinting but reports no new clinical results.

This study established a mouse model for Cushing's syndrome due to a specific Crh mutation, which may help explore the effects of glucocorticoid excess and evaluate treatments for corticosteroid-induced osteoporosis.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that in a mouse model, the stimulation of mammary tumor growth due to progesterone is primarily caused by its metabolite, 5αP, not progesterone itself.

This study found that photoacoustic imaging can effectively measure follicle density and angles, even when follicles are not visible to the eye, providing a promising alternative to traditional photographic examination.

In this study, red rice was found to contain 87.2% carbohydrates, 9.1% proteins, and demonstrated bioactive properties due to its flavan-3-ol phenolic compounds, suggesting potential health benefits beyond its nutritional content.

This study on Sdr16c5/Sdr16c6-null mice found that inactivating these genes significantly increased Meibomian gland secretions and altered lipid profiles but had a subtle impact on sebogenesis, suggesting the genes control a bifurcation point in meibogenesis pathways.

In this study, intralesional triamcinolone acetonide was found to be more effective than platelet rich plasma and placebo for moderate to severe alopecia areata, but had a higher relapse rate.

In this study, androgenetic alopecia patients had a significantly higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome and related metabolic disorders compared to those without the condition.

This study found that quiescence in hair follicle stem cells acts as a tumor suppression mechanism for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, with Pten activity necessary to maintain this state.

This review article explores the pathogenesis of vitiligo and examines various therapeutic approaches, specifically highlighting the potential use of oral and topical Janus kinase inhibitors for treatment.

This study found that injecting blood plasma enriched with platelet growth factors significantly improved the healing and auditory function in patients with acute post-traumatic tympanic membrane perforation compared to natural regeneration.

In this randomized, placebo-controlled study, Titagen® was found to improve skin, hair, and nail health in adults consuming 5g daily, and reduce pain and improve quality of life for osteoarthritis patients taking 10g daily, without related adverse events.

This review found that oral methotrexate plus oral prednisone may improve disease activity or damage in juvenile active morphea compared to placebo plus prednisone, but adverse events may slightly increase.

This study observed that autologous platelet-rich plasma treatment improved hair count and density in areas with androgenetic alopecia compared to placebo, with differing outcomes based on the PRP collection device used.

This study suggests that the GPX-PDE1 and GPX-PDE2 genes in white lupin enhance root hair development and contribute to Pi limitation acclimation by facilitating glycerophosphodiester degradation.

This study reports that once neoplastic causes are excluded, functional hirsutism can be effectively treated with low-dose dexamethasone, oral contraceptives, and spironolactone.
