research Inhibition of Rat 5α-Reductase Activity and Testosterone-Induced Sebum Synthesis in Hamster Sebocytes by an Extract ofQuercus acutissimaCortex
An extract from Quercus acutissima bark was found to reduce sebum production and block an enzyme linked to acne.
research Photobiomodulation in Cells’ Repair
Photobiomodulation helps reduce pain, lessen inflammation, heal wounds, and can be used in skin treatments. It also boosts hair growth in women with hair loss and may help fight microbes and prevent respiratory issues in COVID-19.
research Pre-receptor regulation of the androgen receptor
Two enzymes regulate androgen receptor activity, affecting treatments for androgen insufficiency and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Near Infrared (NIR) Light Therapy of Eye Diseases: A Review
NIR light therapy may effectively treat eye diseases and improve brain function without side effects.
research Repeated Low-Level Red-Light Therapy for Controlling Onset and Progression of Myopia-a Review
Red-light therapy may slow myopia progression better than traditional treatments.
research The Arabidopsis Receptor-like Kinase CAP1 Promotes Shoot Growth under Ammonium Stress
CAP1 helps Arabidopsis plants grow better under ammonium stress.
research In vitro–in vivo assessments of apocynin-hybrid nanoparticle-based gel as an effective nanophytomedicine for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis
The gel with apocynin-loaded nanoparticles shows promise for treating rheumatoid arthritis.
research High Auxin and High Phosphate Impact on RSL2 Expression and ROS-Homeostasis Linked to Root Hair Growth in Arabidopsis thaliana
High levels of auxin increase root hair growth by activating RSL2 and producing ROS, while high phosphate levels hinder growth by repressing RSL2.
research Maternal androgen excess induces cardiac hypertrophy and left ventricular dysfunction in female mice offspring
High levels of male hormones in pregnant mice cause heart enlargement and poor heart function in their female babies.
research Oxidative stress and autoimmune skin disease
Antioxidants may help fight oxidative stress linked to autoimmune skin diseases.
research Photobiomodulation devices for hair regrowth and wound healing: a therapy full of promise but a literature full of confusion
Photobiomodulation may help with hair growth and wound healing, but research is inconsistent and needs better quality studies.
research Oxidative stress management in the hair follicle: Could targeting NRF2 counter age‐related hair disorders and beyond?
Activating NRF2 might help treat hair disorders by improving antioxidant defenses.
research Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, February 13–16, 2013
The document concludes that various findings in rheumatology offer insights into disease severity, treatment responses, and potential risks in medication, with some limitations due to unspecified participant numbers.
research Potential efficiency of antioxidants to prevent pressure ulcers. A neglected hypothesis
Antioxidants might help prevent pressure ulcers, but more research is needed to find effective ones.
research The effect of oxygen supply using perfluorocarbon-based nanoemulsions on human hair growth
A new nanoemulsion increases oxygen for hair cells, leading to better hair growth.
research Low Level Laser and Light Therapy
Low-Level Laser Therapy can stimulate healing and cell function, potentially leading to wider medical use.
research Stimulation of Stem Cell Niches and Tissue Regeneration in Mouse Skin by Switchable Protoporphyrin IX-Dependent Photogeneration of Reactive Oxygen Species In Situ
Controlled light treatment in mouse skin speeds up healing and hair growth.
research Xenobiotica-metabolizing enzymes in the skin of rat, mouse, pig, guinea pig, man, and in human skin models
Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.
research Alopecia: unapproved treatments or indications
Many treatments for hair loss lack proper testing and FDA approval, so their effectiveness is uncertain.
research Conflicting Auxin-Phosphate Signals Impact on RSL2 Expression and ROS-Homeostasis Linked to Root Hair Growth in Arabidopsis
Auxin helps root hairs grow in high phosphate by affecting ROS and involving RSL2 and RSL4.
research ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective FDA-approved treatments for androgenetic alopecia.

Angelica gigas Nakai root extracts may help with cancer, pain, memory loss, and metabolic issues.
research Alopecia in Harlequin mutant mice is associated with reduced AIF protein levels and expression of retroviral elements
Harlequin mutant mice have hair loss due to low AIF protein levels and retroviral element activity.
research Mechanisms of repigmentation induced by photobiomodulation therapy in vitiligo
Light therapy using helium-neon lasers can help restore skin color in vitiligo by promoting skin cell growth and movement.
research The eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome
Eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome, linked to contaminated L-tryptophan supplements, caused severe symptoms and some deaths, with long-term effects in survivors.
