This study found that sheep possess a polymorphic KAP8-2 gene that shares high sequence identity with the KAP8-2 gene in goats and reindeer.

This study concludes that rhesus macaques are a suitable model for testing the pharmacological properties of finasteride and other 5aR inhibitors, due to their biochemical similarity to humans.

This study introduced a statistical method, PLACO, which revealed novel genetic regions associated with both Type 2 Diabetes and Prostate Cancer from GWAS data.

This study found that activating cannabinoid receptor 1 reduces the expression of keratins K6 and K16 in human keratinocytes, suggesting potential implications for psoriasis management.

In this study, researchers identified compound 30a as a promising topical androgen receptor antagonist that promoted hair growth in mouse models of androgenetic alopecia without noticeable toxicity, suggesting its potential for treating this hair loss condition.

This study found that specific mutations in the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 may significantly alter its structure and affect how it binds to certain inhibitors, but experimental studies are needed to confirm potential clinical implications.

In this study, mild adverse reactions to COVID-19 vaccines were reported among vaccinated staff and students, with females experiencing more reactions than males.

In this narrative review, the authors compared monotherapy and combination therapy for type 2 diabetes, finding that while monotherapy is effective in early stages, combination therapy offers superior glycemic control and cardiovascular benefits, though it requires individualized selection for safety and adherence.

This study found that Bangladeshi patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus had significantly lower serum vitamin E levels compared to healthy individuals, with lower levels particularly observed in female and older patients, emphasizing the potential importance of antioxidant status in managing the disease.

In a clinical trial, this study found that a modified slow-release oral testosterone formulation improved pharmacokinetics, delaying serum testosterone peaks and reducing serum DHT compared to immediate-release formulations, especially when combined with finasteride.

This study identified 29 Moroccan medicinal plants containing compounds that may act as natural inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 based on molecular docking and in-silico analyses.

In this study, low dose finasteride or dutasteride treatment was found to reduce prostate specific antigen levels in men with androgenetic alopecia, though levels sometimes remained stable or increased in those with low baseline PSA.

In this study, researchers aim to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of combining plum-blossom needle tapping with ginger juice rubbing to prevent hair loss in obese women after metabolic bariatric surgery, through a randomized controlled trial involving 96 participants.

In a study on secondary hair follicle stem cells from Arbas cashmere goats, researchers found that 10 μg/mL quercetin for 48 hours enhances cell proliferation and inhibits apoptosis through multiple signaling pathways, potentially improving cashmere production.

This study identifies six novel keratin genes from the chromosome 17q21.2 region, suggesting their association with hair follicles, while all 27 keratin genes in the domain have been characterized transcriptionally.

This study found that modified laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity reduced ghrelin levels, improved glycemic and insulin levels, and resulted in significant weight loss.

This study found no significant difference in the risk of poor glycemic control between men with type 2 diabetes using tamsulosin and those using finasteride.

This review outlines various clinical methods for assessing ageing skin and discusses their application in supporting the efficacy claims of anti-ageing treatments, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, ALR was found to enhance both the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, potentially through specific signaling pathways.

This study found no significant associations between the polymorphisms of SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 genes and androgenetic alopecia, clinical types of baldness, or response to finasteride in Koreans.

This conference abstract outlines topics discussed at the International Conference of the Islamic Medical Association of North America and reports no new results.

Baricitinib is a safe and effective treatment for severe alopecia areata.

This study identified five FDA-approved drugs, including cepharantine and clofazimine, as potential COVID-19 therapies through in silico and in vitro screening targeting viral entry mechanisms.

This study explores potential strategies for targeted drug delivery specifically to pancreatic beta-cells in type 2 diabetes treatment, highlighting methods for inducing drug expression in beta-cells, suitable drug carriers, active targeting peptides, and optimal administration routes.

This study found that betulinic acid inhibits hepatitis C virus replication by suppressing the NF-κB- and ERK1/2-mediated COX-2 pathway, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic supplement.

This review highlights cepharanthine as a promising candidate for COVID-19 treatment due to its antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 and favorable pharmacokinetic and safety profile, but reports no new clinical results.

Baricitinib is generally safe for long-term use in treating severe alopecia areata.

This study observed that topiramate treatment in female zebrafish may impair genetic transmission to offspring, reducing expression of certain skeletal development-related genes in embryos.
