This study systematically compared pediatric and adult Cushing's disease patients, revealing more severe and earlier-onset symptoms in males, and distinct gender-specific clinical manifestations.

This case report describes a post-menopausal woman with severe hirsutism whose high testosterone levels decreased after gonadotropin suppression, indicating residual hormone-producing tissue responsive to gonadotropins.

This review discusses recent findings on hair follicle morphogenesis and regeneration, focusing on molecular signals and stem cells, and suggests that understanding these processes may aid in developing new strategies for wound healing.

This article reviews Cronkhite-Canada syndrome as a distinct condition from Peutz-Jeghers syndrome and familial polyposis, with cases showing gastrointestinal polyposis, skin, hair, nail abnormalities, and hypoproteinemia.

This study reported that baicalin activates the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in mouse hair follicles, suggesting its potential as a topical treatment for hair loss.

The researchers reported that minor salivary gland stem cells exhibit stem cell characteristics and respond to tobacco-derived carcinogens, implicating the transforming growth factor beta pathway in their maintenance.

This article reports a case of hair loss and pigmentation changes in a man after using propylthiouracil alongside iodine solution for thyroid and diabetic conditions, providing clinical observations without broader conclusions.

In this animal study, rats given high doses of ethynylestradiol showed dose-related estrogenic effects, delayed tumor onset in females, and no overall increase in tumor incidence compared to controls.

This case series reports three cats diagnosed with hypersomatotropism due to GH-secreting pituitary adenomas without concurrent diabetes mellitus, highlighting the potential for underdiagnosis in non-diabetic cats.

This case report describes a 73-year-old male with numerous colon polyps whose long-term use of Cape Aloe likely caused melanosis coli, which helped highlight the polyps' locations.

This review highlights the eye and skin manifestations of endocrine-related metabolic diseases but provides no new clinical results.

This review discusses the etiology and clinical findings of atypical hyperadrenocorticism in dogs due to sex steroid imbalance and explores various treatment options, but reports no new results.

This case study highlights the significance of early diagnosis and treatment of Cushing's syndrome during pregnancy, as it is associated with severe maternal and fetal complications, including stillbirth.

This review discusses various pathologies involving sebaceous glands, primarily and secondarily, but reports no new clinical findings.

Finasteride use may be linked to rare testicular tumor, but more research needed.

This review discusses imaging's role in the diagnosis and management of congenital adrenal hyperplasia and reports no new clinical results; it suggests a potential presentation route via incidental radiologic findings.

This study found that CRABP1, Nestin, and Ephrin B2 are expressed in both the tumor stroma and invasive front of skin adnexal tumors and basal cell carcinomas.

In this study, aleglitazar and its metabolite M6 were evaluated for safety in non-clinical settings, revealing organ-targeting effects common to PPAR agonists but no significant tumor increase in rat carcinogenicity studies, supporting progression to Phase 3 clinical trials.

The researchers reported that Lrig1 overexpression was observed in 100% of sebaceous carcinoma cases, suggesting it may serve as a potential marker for poorly differentiated sebaceous carcinoma.

This study in Saudi female patients with hyperprolactinemia found that pituitary imaging is often indicated due to a high prevalence of pituitary anomalies, with prolactin levels showing moderate accuracy in predicting adenomas and a suggested cutoff level of >38.71 ng/mL for diagnosis.

This case report describes a 35-year-old woman with a Rathke’s cleft cyst presenting with Cushing disease, highlighting the need to evaluate hormonal hypersecretion in atypical pituitary lesions.

This case report documented the management of a 46-year-old female with Marine-Lenhart syndrome, combining antithyroids with minimally invasive sclerotherapy to achieve euthyroidism and reduce thyroid nodule size by 58%.

This review discusses recent studies on the hepatotoxic effects of anabolic androgenic steroids and selective androgen receptor modulators, including liver damage, tumors, and related conditions, and reports no new primary research results.

In this case report, a 62-year-old postmenopausal woman with hyperandrogenism exhibited male-pattern alopecia and hirsutism, which improved after bilateral adrenal adenomas were removed, underscoring the need for investigation of androgen-producing tumors in similar cases.

This case report highlights the potential benefits of unilateral adrenalectomy in treating primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia, noting a high rate of remission and low risk of recurrence.

This case report describes a 58-year-old woman whose virilization symptoms were linked to a steroid tumor of the ovary, emphasizing the importance of prompt diagnosis and treatment to improve her quality of life.

This case study reports a rare instance of ectopic ACTH secretion from a primary lung neuroendocrine tumor in a young woman, highlighting successful diagnosis and treatment following symptoms of Cushing syndrome, with normalization of ACTH, glucose, and cortisol levels post-surgery.

This case report describes a 64-year-old woman with male pattern hair loss and elevated testosterone levels, who was diagnosed with an androgen-secreting adrenal tumor and successfully treated with laparoscopic adrenalectomy.

Recognizing minor skin lesions can help identify serious cancer syndromes.

This case study diagnosed a cat with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, confirmed by specific hormonal tests and post-mortem findings of adrenal hyperplasia and a pituitary adenoma.
