A cancer patient died from a severe skin reaction after taking the drug cetuximab.
research The hair growth promoting effect of ascorbic acid 2-phosphate, a long-acting Vitamin C derivative
A long-acting Vitamin C derivative helps hair grow by stimulating cells and increasing growth factors.
research Pharmacologic Modulation of Sebaceous Gland Activity: Mechanisms and Clinical Applications
The document concludes that new treatments are needed to better manage acne and reduce side effects related to current therapies.
research Use of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Cicatricial Alopecia
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) may help improve hair density in primary cicatricial alopecias (PCAs) patients, but more trials are needed to confirm its benefits.
research Cholesterol homeostasis: Links to hair follicle biology and hair disorders
Cholesterol balance is important for hair health, and problems with it can lead to hair loss conditions.

UV-B light increases inflammation-related substances in acne-related skin cells.
research Selenium and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome; Current Knowledge and Future Directions: A Systematic Review
Selenium might help with insulin resistance and cholesterol in PCOS, but more research is needed to confirm its benefits.
research Alopecia and Hirsuties
The document concludes that treatments for female hair loss and excessive hair growth are temporary and not well-studied.
research Androgenetic alopecia and COVID ‐19: A review of the hypothetical role of androgens
Possible link between androgens and COVID-19 severity; more research needed.
research Prostaglandin D2 Uses Components of ROS Signaling to Enhance Testosterone Production in Keratinocytes
Prostaglandin D2 increases testosterone production in skin cells through a process involving reactive oxygen species, and antioxidants may help treat hair loss.
research Morphological and morphometric study of the androgenetic alopecic scalp using two- and three-dimensional analysis comparing regional differences
The study found that balding scalps have more thin hairs and larger oil glands, which might contribute to skin conditions related to hair loss.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome: a dermatologic approach
Early treatment of PCOS is crucial for better health and quality of life.
research Raising hairs
Stem cell treatments can potentially treat baldness, with one trial showing hair growth after injecting a hair-stimulating complex, and no safety issues were reported.
research Clinical Evidence of Increase in Hair Growth and Decrease in Hair Loss without Adverse Reactions Promoted by the Commercial Lotion ECOHAIR®
ECOHAIR® lotion is effective and safe for improving hair growth and reducing hair loss.
research The promoter of an androgen dependent gene in the hamster flank organ
Researchers found a gene in hamsters that responds to male hormones and may be indirectly controlled by them.
research Male Pattern Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgens contribute to common male hair loss; more research needed for hair growth medication.
research Vandetanib-associated alopecia areata in a patient with metastatic medullary thyroid cancer
A cancer patient developed a type of hair loss after starting a cancer drug called vandetanib.
research Protective role of agomelatine via modulation of TLR4/NF-κB: NLRP3/IL-1β signaling pathways in testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia in rats
Agomelatine may help reduce benign prostatic hyperplasia by blocking certain inflammatory pathways.
research Sex Hormones and Related Compounds, Including Hormonal Contraceptives
The document concludes that sex hormones and related compounds have various effects on health, with both potential benefits and risks.
research Insights into the context-dependent immunological roles of the CXCL12–CXCR4 axis in alopecia
Blocking the CXCL12–CXCR4 axis may help treat hair loss in alopecia.
research 257 Is EBF1 a negative regulator of WNT10A in the development of androgenetic alopecia?
Finasteride helps female-pattern hair loss.
research Roles of tumor suppressors in regulating tumor-associated inflammation
Tumor suppressors help control inflammation in cancer and restoring their function could lead to new treatments.
research Thyroxine (T4) may promote re-epithelialisation and angiogenesis in wounded human skin ex vivo
Thyroxine (T4) may help heal skin wounds by promoting new skin and blood vessel growth.
research Wound Healing and Skin Regeneration
Hair growth phase and certain genes can speed up wound healing, while an inflammatory mediator can slow down new hair growth after a wound. Understanding these factors can improve tissue regeneration during wound healing.
research Bioengineering skin using mechanisms of regeneration and repair
Artificial skin development has challenges, but new materials and understanding cell behavior could improve tissue repair. Also, certain growth factors and hydrogel technology show promise for advanced skin replacement therapies.
research Metformin: an old medication of new fashion: evolving new molecular mechanisms and clinical implications in polycystic ovary syndrome
Metformin helps manage polycystic ovary syndrome by improving insulin resistance and ovulation, but more research is needed on its full effects.
