research Effects of Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists on Skin Homeostasis and Skin Aging Processes
GLP-1 RAs may help wound healing but can also cause faster facial aging and skin issues.
research An ERK-dependent molecular switch antagonizes fibrosis and promotes regeneration in spiny mice ( Acomys )
High levels of ERK activity are key for tissue regeneration in spiny mice, and activating ERK can potentially redirect scar-forming healing towards regenerative healing in mammals.
research The Impact of Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists on Erectile Function: Friend or Foe?
The effect of GLP-1 RAs on erectile function is unclear and needs more research.
research Corticotropin releasing hormone and the skin
CRH in the skin acts like the body's stress response system, affecting cell behavior and immune activity.
research Topical and nutricosmetic products for healthy hair and dermal antiaging using “dual‐acting” (2 for 1) plant‐based peptides, hormones, and cannabinoids
Plant-based products can improve hair and skin health without harmful side effects.
research Intracrine androgen biosynthesis, metabolism and action revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
research Do Anti-androgens Have Potential as Therapeutics for COVID-19?
Anti-androgens might help reduce COVID-19 severity in men.

Cannabinoids may help treat various skin conditions.
research Mandibulofacial dysostosis with alopecia results from ETAR gain-of-function mutations via allosteric effects on ligand binding
Specific mutations in a receptor cause facial abnormalities and hair loss.
research Cannabinoid Compounds as a Pharmacotherapeutic Option for the Treatment of Non-Cancer Skin Diseases
Cannabinoids like CBD and THC may help treat non-cancer skin diseases, but more research is needed.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: An Update on Pathogenesis and Pharmacological Treatment
Current treatments for androgenetic alopecia are complex and promising, but more research is needed.
research TRP Channels in Skin Biology and Pathophysiology
TRP channels in the skin are important for sensation and health, and targeting them could help treat skin disorders.
research Polydeoxyribonucleotide in Skincare and Cosmetics: Mechanisms, Therapeutic Applications, and Advancements Beyond Wound Healing and Anti-aging
PDRN from trout sperm helps skin and hair regeneration but is costly and complex to produce.
research Pathogenic Mechanisms and Mechanism‐Directed Therapies for Androgenetic Alopecia: Current Understanding and Future Directions
Targeting multiple pathways may improve treatments for androgenetic alopecia.
research Synthesis and Actions of 5α-Reduced Metabolites of Testosterone in the Nervous System
Testosterone and its metabolites affect brain functions and could help treat neurological disorders.
research Fibroblast Growth Factor-7 and Hair Biology: Bridging Basic Science and Therapeutic Applications
FGF-7 helps hair grow by activating hair follicles and is a promising target for hair loss treatments.
research TRPV3 Ion Channel: From Gene to Pharmacology
The TRPV3 ion channel is important for skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin conditions.
research Expanding the Scope of PROTACs: Opportunities and Challenges in Topical Delivery
Topical PROTACs show promise for treating skin conditions but need better stability and delivery methods.
research Novel Synthetic Steroid Derivatives: Target Prediction and Biological Evaluation of Antiandrogenic Activity
New steroid compounds may help with hormonal therapy and have potential benefits for glucose disorders, but more research is needed.
research 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D resistance, rickets, and alopecia
A genetic defect in vitamin D receptors causes severe rickets and hair loss in children, but some heal as they age.
research Recent advances in neuropeptide-related omics and gene editing: Spotlight on NPY and somatostatin and their roles in growth and food intake of fish
New tools show that in fish, NPY increases feeding and somatostatin decreases it.
research Brimonidine Beyond a Single Specialty: Pharmacological Profile, Dermatologic Applications, and Advances in Drug Delivery Systems
Brimonidine is effective for reducing facial redness in skin conditions and has potential for broader dermatological uses.
research Rebamipide Induces Hair Regeneration Through EP4-Driven Lipid Metabolism Remodeling
Rebamipide may help regrow hair by activating hair follicle stem cells.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research (2015)
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
