This review discusses the potential of microneedle arrays for drug delivery and in the cosmetic market, but reports no new clinical results; factors for commercial therapeutic use are explored.

In this study, researchers observed that spiral ganglion neurites created more branched networks near FGF-1-coupled beads compared to control beads, highlighting FGF-1's role in hair cell innervation development.

This study observed that direct exposure to androgens in Western clawed frogs differentially affects thyroid receptor and deiodinase gene expression in male and female tissues, offering insight into sex-specific metabolic pathway activation.

This study indicated that while testosterone replacement in older men with low testosterone increases muscle mass and strength and reduces fat, its effects on physical function, disability, falls, or fractures remain unclear.

This study found significant differences in serum lipoprotein (a) and triglyceride levels between men with androgenetic alopecia and those with normal hair, suggesting a need for dermatologists to monitor lipid profiles in these patients.

This review summarizes the use of chlormadinone acetate for hormone replacement therapy and contraception, highlighting its anti-androgenic effects, contraceptive efficacy, and clinical tolerability, without offering new clinical results.

This study provides the first crystal structure of the human SRD5A2 enzyme, revealing key insights into its function and inhibition which may aid future drug development.

This study found that in Chinese women with PCOS, pretreatment with ethinylestradiol/cyproterone acetate was associated with a lower risk of gestational diabetes, pregnancy-induced hypertension, and premature delivery compared to those without pretreatment.

In this review, researchers examined the physiological benefits of Cheonggukjang, a salt-free fermented soybean paste, highlighting its various health-promoting components that may contribute to improved heart health, diabetes management, and cancer prevention, among other benefits.

This study found a high prevalence of hyperandrogenemia in women with PCOS, with distinct biochemical differences according to BMI and presence of hyperandrogenemia.

This study found that finasteride significantly reduced levodopa-induced dyskinesia in both male and female rats without diminishing l-DOPA's motor benefits, indicating potential for clinical trials in Parkinson's patients.

This review discusses the effects of dietary protein and its components on cholesterol, essential fatty acids, and possible health consequences, but presents no new clinical findings.

In this study, adolescents with depressive symptoms were found to have higher urinary excretion rates of certain steroid metabolites, including corticosterone and adrenal hormones, and a specific metabolite ratio was identified as a potential biomarker for distinguishing these patients from healthy controls.

In this study, the authors observed that among elderly participants, 59.1% did not experience depression, correlating with measured average levels of apolipoprotein A and B. They suggest early screening can help manage apolipoprotein levels, potentially reducing depression risk and improving quality of life.

This article provides tables summarizing various medical conditions and symptoms related to COVID-19, sepsis, and cardiovascular issues, but it does not report new research findings.

In this study, researchers found that serum dihydrotestosterone levels were significantly lower in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes compared to healthy controls, with 90% of diabetics displaying subnormal levels.

This study explored the structure and function of lipocalin prostaglandin D synthase, revealing its dual role in substrate catalysis and as a lipophilic ligand carrier, potentially informing future drug delivery design.

This study found that men with androgenic alopecia had significantly higher levels of lipoprotein (a), a risk factor for coronary artery disease, compared to men with normal hair.

Baldness may indicate higher heart disease risk in men.

This study suggests that ethylene and lignoceric acid (C24:0) may promote cotton fiber and Arabidopsis root hair growth by activating the pectin biosynthesis network.

This article explores the potential of formyl-peptide receptor 2 agonists as innovative anti-inflammatory drugs, highlighting their ability to mimic the body's natural inflammation response, but it presents no new clinical findings.

This review discusses advances in protecting against chemotherapy-induced alopecia and reports no new clinical results; calcitriol and cyclosporine A emerged as promising agents in animal models with broader efficacy across multiple chemotherapy drugs.

This study found that overexpression of the mineralocorticoid receptor in a mouse model led to premature epidermal barrier development, keratinocyte apoptosis, and postnatal alopecia, indicating new roles for MR signaling in skin physiology.

This report describes a case where hidradenitis suppurativa developed in a patient receiving lithium, adding to the recognized cutaneous side effects like psoriasis, acneiform lesions, and alopecia.

This review discusses the role of hormonal dysregulation and metabolic syndrome in hidradenitis suppurativa and reports no new clinical results.

This review highlights essential preoperative assessments for ophthalmologists and non-oculo-facial surgeons performing upper facial rejuvenation, emphasizing the importance of understanding ocular and periocular anatomy to achieve both cosmetic and functional improvements.

This study found that improved outcomes in scalp surgery were achieved by utilizing knowledge of the surgical anatomy of the scalp to avoid complications like unsightly scars and distorted hair patterns.

This review discusses the mechanisms of skin aging, highlighting the roles of stem/progenitor cells, genetic and environmental factors, and suggests potential for cell-based therapies, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study developed an antimicrobial microneedle patch for delivering apoptotic vesicles to treat infected wounds, which was found to effectively reduce bacterial growth and accelerate scarless healing, including the rapid formation of mature hair follicles in just 8 days, a previously unreported early outcome.

This study found that the medication dyclonine has a potent inhibitory effect on the TRPV3 channel, effectively rescuing cell death and alleviating pruritus symptoms in a mouse model with gain-of-function TRPV3 mutations, suggesting potential for treating skin inflammation.
