This review examines around 68 plant sources from six major plant families, assessing their scientific rationale and use by the cosmeceutical industry for applications like anti-ageing and sun protection.

This review suggests that skin may largely protect itself from CYP-generated reactive metabolites due to higher conjugating enzyme activities, while highlighting limitations in modeling human skin metabolism experimentally.

This review explores the potential of using genetically-manipulated stem cells as both therapeutic agents and gene delivery vehicles for enhanced wound regeneration, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review updates the protective effects and molecular mechanisms of melatonin against ultraviolet-induced damage in human skin, reporting no new clinical findings.

This review discusses AR-modulating agents developed between 2012 and 2018, highlighting challenges with ligand-binding domain antagonists and proposing nonconventional approaches targeting other domains as promising strategies.

In this case report, researchers identified Arthroderma vanbreuseghemii as the cause of a familial fungal infection, which was successfully treated with itraconazole and topical terbinafine cream.

This review discusses the role of hair dyes in cosmetic dermatology, their effects on hair and scalp health, and the importance of dermatologists understanding potential side effects; it reports no new findings.

This study found that dutasteride completely suppressed the formation of 5alpha-dihydro metabolites in cultured human skin cells, suggesting its potential use in acne and androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses the potential uses of 5α-reductase inhibitors for conditions ranging from benign prostatic hyperplasia to skin disorders like acne and male pattern baldness, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review summarizes recent advancements in steroidal 5α-reductase inhibitors for benign prostatic hyperplasia and reports no new clinical results.

This study reports on the biochemical characteristics of S100A3 protein in human hair cuticle, notably finding its N-terminal methionine is acetylated and has a slightly lower isoelectric point compared to the recombinant version.

In this study, melatonin administration enhanced various cellular and structural features of the scrotal skin in Soay rams, including increased thickness, cell count, and gland activity.

This review discusses various targets for treating prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia and reports on recent studies of new compounds and 5α-reductase inhibitors, but provides no new experimental results.

This study reports that melanocytes form a defined photoresponsive network in the skin that reads environmental light cycles and may influence the sleep-waking cycle similar to the pineal gland.

This study identified FP-1 as a highly specific extracellular matrix protein in follicular papilla cells, which may play a role in hair growth regulation during specific hair cycle phases.

This study observed that a topical liposome formulation of a 5‐α‐reductase inhibitor effectively reduced the size of treated sebaceous glands and induced apoptosis in a hamster model, suggesting potential benefits for acne treatment.

This article discusses the role of Minoxidil Sulfotransferase Enzyme (SULT1A1) genetic variants in predicting the response to oral minoxidil for treating female pattern hair loss, without presenting new research findings.

This review discusses hormonal manipulation for conditions like prostatic disorders and skin issues and highlights promising treatments like casodex and finasteride, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that cortexolone 17α-propionate showed strong topical antiandrogenic activity, outperforming progesterone and several known antiandrogens, but lacked systemic antiandrogenic effects in animal models.

This study found that novel compounds moderately inhibited 5α-reductase type 1 activity compared to finasteride, offering valuable data on structure-activity relationships.
