This article reviews the anatomical complexity and developmental aspects of hair follicles for analyzing abnormalities, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses nonsteroidal selective androgen receptor modulators and their potential therapeutic applications but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, androgen deprivation, particularly through finasteride treatment, effectively reduced chronic bacterial prostatitis severity in rats, suggesting potential for improved treatment modalities combining finasteride and levofloxacin.

This review summarizes existing research on the use of finasteride for treating androgenetic alopecia in men, reporting its effectiveness at 1 mg/day and a strong safety profile, but presents no new findings.

This study found that good quality protein supplements or rumen-protected methionine increased fiber yield in Angora goats and, to a lesser extent, in Cashmere goats.

Testosterone causes hair loss in AGA mice, which are good for testing baldness treatments, and both minoxidil and cyproterone acetate can prevent this hair loss.

This study suggests 5α‐androstan‐3α‐17β‐diol may be the true inducer of kidney enzymes in certain mice, while its induction mechanism likely involves pinocytosis rather than a receptor protein.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had significant systemic inflammation and vitamin D deficiency, with both conditions more pronounced as disease severity increased.

This study found that administering the gut bacterium Thauera sp. strain GDN1 to mice significantly reduced their serum androgen levels, indicating gut bacteria may influence androgen metabolism.

Nano-liposol with astaxanthin may improve antioxidant and wound healing effects.

This review analyzed clinical trial protocols for platelet-rich plasma preparation in hair loss treatment, finding inconsistent and insufficient reporting that complicates comparison and efficacy determination.

In this study, researchers found that the prevalence of androgenetic alopecia was higher in their sample compared to other studies in Asian and Caucasian populations, and it was linked with age-related severity.

This study found that topical valproic acid significantly increased hair count in male patients with moderate androgenetic alopecia compared to placebo over 24 weeks.

This study provides new insights into the identification and expression patterns of miRNAs in wool follicles, which could improve understanding of wool follicle development in sheep.

In this study, transgenic male mice over-expressing the androgen receptor in mesenchymal stem cells showed reduced fat mass and improved glucose clearance, suggesting enhanced androgen sensitivity may alter body composition.

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

This study found that both men and women with androgenic alopecia had significantly higher triglycerides, total cholesterol, and LDL-C and lower HDL-C levels than controls, suggesting increased dyslipidemia prevalence.

This study concluded that heredity is associated with hair loss, while lifestyle and stress factors are not significantly related.

This study found that in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, shorter CAG repeat lengths in the androgen receptor gene were associated with lower dihydrotestosterone and androstenedione levels, but a higher prevalence of acne and hirsutism.

The researchers reported that the rat Hershberger assay reliably detected endocrine-disrupting effects of finasteride, procymidone, and 17α-methyltestosterone, validating the assay's sensitivity for identifying hormonal activity.

In a study using human scalp skin grafts on SCID mice, topical flutamide and finasteride significantly improved hair growth in male-pattern baldness compared to placebo, with flutamide showing superior results to finasteride.

This review summarizes various effects of bergamot components on multiple health conditions in humans and animals but reports limitations in their use for stress and anxiety relief in aromatherapy.

This study reported that Turkish males with male pattern androgenetic alopecia had significantly lower zinc and copper levels in their hair compared to healthy controls, suggesting these imbalances may play a role in the condition's etiology.

This study found that among middle-aged Korean women, those with metabolic syndrome had a higher risk of androgenetic alopecia, while no significant association was observed in men.

In this study, crossing mice overexpressing antizyme with MEK mutants significantly delayed tumor development and reduced tumor frequency, likely by slowing cell growth in skin tumors.

In this study, researchers observed a significant association between female androgenetic alopecia and coronary artery disease in women under 55, supporting a link similar to that seen in men.

This study found that prenatal antiandrogen treatment in female spotted hyenas significantly altered the LH response to GnRH, indicating partial masculinization of their anterior pituitary gland without affecting ovulatory function.

This study found that nexin 1 mRNA, a potent protease inhibitor, is prevalent in rat follicular papilla cells and may play a role in regulating hair follicular growth.

This study found that topical hair lotions with 17 alpha-estradiol may reduce telogen hair loss in patients with androgenetic alopecia, though they did not lead to new hair regrowth.

This study found that downregulating PI3K in common bean severely impaired symbiosis with beneficial microorganisms, indicating an essential role for autophagy-related processes in these mutualistic interactions.
