This study suggests that human scalp hair follicles express erythropoietin and its receptor, up-regulating receptor expression under hypoxic conditions, and may mimic another hypothalamus–pituitary axis equivalent involving the TRH-TSH system.

In this study, a plasma-fluorescent corticoid test effectively differentiated patients with adrenal insufficiency from those with normal adrenal function based on their response to corticotropin.

This study found that thymosin β4 is highly expressed in multiple human tissues and may play a role in organ function and angiogenesis through co-localization with VEGF.

This study identified the presence of the enzyme 1 alpha-hydroxylase in various extrarenal tissues, suggesting its potential role in modulating vitamin D function in peripheral tissues.

This study observed that thymosin beta 4 and VEGF have similar expression patterns in various human tissues, suggesting a role in angiogenesis and organ function.

This review explores the role of hormones in pilosebaceous units and associated skin disorders, focusing on androgen action, without presenting new clinical findings.

This paper reviews adrenocortical carcinoma, discussing its prevalence, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report highlights the importance of considering pituitary stalk interruption syndrome as a potential diagnosis for patients with short stature, as early detection may allow those affected to achieve normal height.

This study found that trilostane treatment led to complete hair regrowth in three Alaskan malamutes with ACTH-stimulated elevated 17-hydroxyprogesterone levels within 6 months without any recognized adverse effects.

This review discusses the roles of androgens and androgen receptor in skin diseases like acne and hirsutism, and highlights the promise of antiandrogen drugs, reporting no new clinical findings.

This case report details a diagnosis of adult-onset isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism in a 23-year-old African American female, highlighting its genetic basis and treatment approach.

This case report highlights the need to consider complementary and alternative medicine use in endocrine evaluations, as stopping lavender oil use coincided with normalization of a concerning lab finding in a girl with precocious puberty signs.

This review discusses how sex hormone levels and local steroid synthesis influence gender differences in aging skin, reporting no new clinical results.

This case study describes an extremely rare instance of androgen-secreting adrenocortical carcinoma in a patient with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This review discusses the clinical features, genetics, and treatment of 21-hydroxylase deficiency, a common type of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and reports no new research findings.

This review covers the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency and reports no new findings.

This review discusses the influence of oestrogens on various skin components and highlights their modulatory roles and receptor pathways, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that although the G972R variant of the IRS1 gene might increase AA excess risk in heterozygous carriers with CYP21 mutations, both variations play a limited role in PCOS development.

This study found that anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is a valuable primary variable for classifying functional androgenization, especially in distinguishing ovarian-related groups, and supports the novel stratification system.

This case report concludes that a combination of physical examination, hormonal evaluation, and imaging studies is crucial for identifying malignant adrenal masses, with radical excision and adjuvant therapy improving patient outcomes.

In this case study, a woman with congenital adrenal hyperplasia experienced substantial improvement in musculoskeletal and neurobehavioral symptoms after low-dose testosterone therapy, highlighting its potential role in managing chronic glucocorticoid overtreatment effects.

This study found that children with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia had elevated epicardial fat thickness, which was associated with increased carotid intima media thickness, left ventricular mass, and mitral deceleration time.
