This review details the expression and diverse functions of melatonin receptors in non-neural tissues and reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing their potential as therapeutic targets across various physiological and pathological processes.

This review discusses nonclassical 21-hydroxylase deficiency as the most common autosomal recessive disorder in humans and highlights the effectiveness of glucocorticoid treatment in reversing related symptoms.

This review summarizes recent multidisciplinary advances in sebaceous gland research and highlights potential novel therapeutic strategies for skin diseases, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the essential roles and complex regulation of PP2A in various physiological processes and reports no clinical results; the authors highlight the need for further mouse model research to explore PP2A's therapeutic potential.

This study found that a 6-month treatment with either metformin or rosiglitazone significantly improved endothelial function in young women with PCOS without any one drug being superior.

This review discusses clinical, hormonal, and genetic aspects of nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia and reports no new findings; the condition is highlighted as a potential cause of premature adrenarche and other symptoms in young people.

This study found that 62% of neutered dogs with hair cycle arrest experienced partial to complete hair re-growth after melatonin treatment, but hair re-growth was not consistently linked to normal sex hormone levels.

This study found that spironolactone treatment can normalize endothelial function and improve cholesterol levels in non-obese patients with polycystic ovary syndrome.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, molecular genetics, and management of non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, with no new clinical findings reported.

This report presents the second known case of erythema nodosum without typical associated conditions, which could be linked to mycoplasma infection, although no testing was conducted to confirm this in the patient.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, genetics, and management of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, noting subfertility and hormonal issues without providing new clinical results.

This study found that the N363S variant of the glucocorticoid receptor was rare among women with PCOS and did not significantly contribute to genetic risk for PCOS or adrenal androgen excess.

This study found that adrenal hormones appear to inhibit winter fur growth onset in mink and may affect the duration of inactivity between fur growth periods.

This review discusses the fertility and pregnancy challenges faced by women with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency and reports no new research findings.

This study found that finasteride treatment in males with androgenetic alopecia was linked to significant changes in sperm parameters and increased testosterone levels, but no sexual dysfunction was observed, and sperm parameters returned to baseline after treatment stopped.

In this review, the authors aim to improve the differential diagnosis between hyperandrogenic PCOS and NCAH, which could lead to more personalized treatment strategies for patients experiencing hyperandrogenism.

This study found that diagnosing non-classical 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency solely based on elevated serum or urinary 5-ene-steroids may not be reliable.

This case report details a postmenopausal woman with hyperandrogenism due to both adrenal adenoma and ovarian hyperthecosis, highlighting the effectiveness of hormonal suppression and venous sampling for diagnosis.

This case report describes a 17-year-old boy with alopecia areata who had vitamin D deficiency and an incidentally discovered adrenal ganglioneuroma, with alopecia receding after vitamin D supplementation but later recurring despite normalized vitamin D and no tumor return.

This case report highlights that in postmenopausal women with severe hyperandrogenism, thorough adrenal and pelvic evaluations, hormonal profiling, and permanent pathology are essential for accurate diagnosis and management of androgen-secreting tumors, such as AGCTs, to prevent misdiagnosis and ensure effective treatment.

This chapter explores the potential of phytochemicals in modulating human endocrine function, emphasizing the growing interest in plant-derived alternatives to synthetic medications for managing metabolic and hormonal disorders often linked to chemical exposures and lifestyle factors.

This review identifies and discusses various endocrine-related causes of hypertension in children and adolescents, emphasizing the role of genetic predispositions and highlighting the need for systematic diagnostic guidelines and genetic sequencing referrals to improve diagnosis and treatment strategies.

This case report details a rare instance of primary adrenal insufficiency as a manifestation of antiphospholipid syndrome, with the patient successfully managed through glucocorticoids, warfarin, and hydroxychloroquine.

This report describes a complex case of postmenopausal hyperandrogenism with virilization and concurrent rare ovarian tumors, highlighting the critical role of interdisciplinary collaboration in diagnosing and managing such challenging scenarios.

This case study reports a patient with ACTH-driven cortisol secretion 14 years after adrenalectomy, suggesting possible residual adrenal tissue or extra-adrenal steroid synthesis, challenging the need for lifelong steroid replacement.

This study found that PRL-1-overexpressing PD-MSCs reduced adipogenesis in orbital fibroblasts from Graves' ophthalmopathy patients by secreting IGFBPs and modulating the FAK pathway.

This case report describes a rare occurrence of giant bilateral adrenal myelolipomas in a 28-year-old female with CAH, emphasizing that large, hormonally active, or painful myelolipomas should be surgically removed.

This review discusses recent advancements in understanding and managing congenital adrenal hyperplasia, including improvements in screening, diagnostics, and potential genetic and cell-based treatments, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that women with PCOS who have an exaggerated 17-hydroxyprogesterone response to buserelin exhibit more severe hyperandrogenemia, increased insulin secretion, and reduced insulin sensitivity.

In this study, plasma levels of MSH and cortisol in patients with alopecia areata did not show significant changes compared to healthy controls.
