This article discusses laboratory and physical markers that may help detect androgenic anabolic steroid abuse in athletes and reports no new primary research results.

This collection from the 2021 Manfred Donike Workshop outlines advancements in doping detection, highlighting new test methods and challenges, with a focus on steroidal substances, peptide hormones, and gene doping analysis.

This study found that metyrapone and etomidate provide dose-dependent anticonvulsant effects against seizures, with delayed effectiveness linked to increased neurosteroid levels.

In this study, transdermal application of anabolic steroids demonstrated rapid and extended detectability in urine, suggesting potential implications for doping control considerations.

This case report describes an 8-year-old girl with ADHD who experienced reversible eyebrow alopecia after initiating atomoxetine treatment, with no further occurrences when the medication was reintroduced.

This study found that a specific amino-pyridine compound showed potent androgen receptor antagonist activity, stimulating hair growth in mice and reducing sebum production in a hamster model.

This study found that high doses of cloforex and chlorphentermine caused pulmonary lipid histiocytosis and toxic effects in rats, but did not induce pulmonary hypertension.

This study found that estazolam improved PTSD-like behavior deficits in an animal model, which was linked to increased allopregnanolone levels in specific brain regions.

This study concluded that the best approach for detecting Androsta-1,4,6-triene-3,17-dione administration in horses is monitoring the metabolites M1b or M4 in urine, detectable up to 77 hours post-administration.

This study found that dutasteride reduced β-amyloid plaque load in a cerebral amyloidosis model, seemingly linked to mitochondrial apoptosis and autophagy processes.

This study found that overexpression of the enzyme SSAT in a mouse model significantly reduced prostate tumor size and progression, suggesting it could be a promising strategy against prostate cancer.

In this study, researchers found that female rats exhibited more pronounced panic-related escape behavior during hypoxia, particularly in the diestrus phase, and that low-dose fluoxetine reduced this behavior, suggesting its potential for managing panic disorder symptoms related to hormonal cycles in women.

This article reviews the historical development of pharmacology up to the mid-20th century and outlines its transition from a support role in therapeutics to a distinct scientific discipline, but reports no new findings.

This study highlights the public health significance of androgenic-anabolic steroid use disorder, emphasizing health risks, societal effects, and the need for routine AAS analyses in forensic autopsies, especially in athlete deaths.

In this study, ethanol was found to enhance GABAergic neurosteroid production and inhibit long-term potentiation in rat hippocampal slices via unblocked NMDA receptor activation, effects reversible by specific inhibitors.

This study found that the yeast androgen screen (YAS) could detect the activity of methyltestosterone in urine for a longer period than classical GC/MS, potentially identifying long-lasting metabolites.

The conclusion is that a new method can measure caffeine and drugs in hair, finding caffeine abusers have 70 times more caffeine than normal, with a proposed cut-off value for abuse.

This article reviews the effectiveness of adrenal cortex compounds E and F in treating various connective tissue disorders and reports no new clinical findings.

Cyproterone and finasteride reduced hypersexuality but caused serious side effects.

This article discusses the interest in folic acid antagonists for leukemia treatment, noting their potential mechanism of interfering with cellular growth, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that nuclear androgen receptors are not necessary for androgen self-administration, suggesting that plasma membrane receptors might be involved.

This review proposes focusing on relationships between neuroactive steroids and psychiatric disorder symptoms, rather than relying on traditional disorder classifications, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that polyamidoamine dendrimers can permeate skin's current conducting pores and alter the magnitude and direction of electroosmotic flow, affecting drug flux during iontophoresis.

This review concludes that anabolic–androgenic steroid abuse may lead to significant neurotoxicity, affecting brain structure, neurotransmitter systems, and increasing the risk of mood disorders and cognitive deficits.

This study found that midazolam, unlike clonazepam, increased neurosteroid levels and affected synaptic inhibition and plasticity in rat hippocampal neurons, suggesting unique actions via dual receptor activation.

Alloxan diabetes, methylthiouracil, cortisone, and adrenaline affect how white mice hair follicles use glucose and cystine and their cell division.

This article discusses the FDA approval of bremelanotide for premenopausal women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder and reports no clinical results.

This study found that dexamethasone may induce diabetes in albino rats and Annona muricata methanolic bark extract resulted in significantly reduced blood sugar levels in dexamethasone-induced diabetic rats.

This review focuses on neuroactive steroids' influence on GABA-ergic signaling and discusses challenges in developing them for various therapeutic uses, citing recent excitement from FDA approval of allopregnanolone for postpartum depression but reporting no new results.
