This study developed a new method to analyze Cantú syndrome mutations in KATP channels, finding that while Kir6.1 mutations increase sensitivity to potassium channel openers, SUR2B mutations show reduced sensitivity, but both result in marked hyperpolarization compared to wild-type channels under basal conditions.

This study established a mathematical model for measuring uncertainty in the HPLC determination of tablet content and content uniformity, which the authors concluded to be reasonable and reliable.

In this study, researchers developed a chemical cocktail and suspension culture method to transform human dermal fibroblasts into dermal papilla-like cells capable of inducing hair follicle formation in vitro and in vivo.

This study found that ultrasonic (ethanol) extracts of Salvia miltiorrhiza bunge and Scutellaria baicalensis were most effective for cell proliferation, while ethanol and ultrasonic waves (water) methods had high antioxidant activity, suggesting their potential in functional cosmetics.

In this study, researchers optimized a method for preparing platelet-rich plasma to improve light transmittance aggregometry testing in coronary artery disease patients on clopidogrel and ticagrelor, finding distinct differences in platelet aggregation and volumes among these patients compared to healthy controls.

In this study, researchers developed a sensitive assay to measure the inhibition of steroid 5-α reductase (5AR) by chemicals like finasteride and dutasteride, revealing species-specific differences in inhibitor efficacy between human and fish cell lines.

This study suggests that measuring hair DHEA and testosterone can reliably reflect long-term average hormone levels in women, overcoming daily and menstrual fluctuations seen in salivary hormone assessments.

In this study, researchers developed a relatively simple punch assay for regenerating hair follicles using mouse or human cells, finding efficient hair formation with mouse cells but low efficiency with human cells on reconstituted human skin.

In this study, mixing mouse epithelial and dermal cells was the most successful method for reconstituting hair follicles in mice, with the hair patch assay providing the quickest results.

This study suggests that analyzing hair samples with a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometric assay may offer a reliable method to measure average quarterly vitamin D levels, potentially complementing blood tests.

This study found that the Bradford assay is a sensitive and reproducible alternative to the Lowry test for quantifying hair protein loss during brushing, with bleached hair releasing more protein than virgin hair.

This study found that an improved flap model in nude mice significantly reduces the time needed for hair induction compared to the traditional method, likely due to enhanced blood supply at the transplantation sites.

This study introduced new spectrophotometric methods to estimate Minoxidil in pharmaceutical forms, demonstrating its linearity across various buffers and solvents, and found these methods to be simple, economical, and effective according to ICH guidelines.

This study introduced a new classification system for distinguishing between anagen VI and early catagen stages in human hair follicle organ culture, using it to confirm eflornithine's ability to induce premature catagen.

Using testosterone-stimulated weanling rats can effectively replace castrated rats for anti-androgen testing, reducing animal stress.

In this study, researchers developed a sensitive LC–MS–MS assay to measure 3α-androstanediol levels in rat plasma and observed that testosterone raises these levels via a 5α-reductase pathway.

In this study, researchers developed a reliable HPLC method to simultaneously estimate Finasteride and Tadalafil in marketed formulations, showing precise, linear results with confirmed degradation susceptibility under certain stress conditions.

This study found that administering botulinum toxin A via Flex-PADs to mouse footpads inhibited sweating similarly to traditional injections, suggesting a promising patient-friendly delivery method for hyperhidrosis treatment.

This study introduced a customizable ELISA for detecting antibodies against botulinum neurotoxin that matches or surpasses other tests in sensitivity and allows for more efficient and animal-friendly testing when combined with the hemidiaphragm assay.

This study developed a rapid ATP assay that effectively measures microbial populations on the skin and tracks changes after microbiome dysbiosis, with findings suggesting that ethanol-cleansed skin takes longer to recover than tape-stripped skin.

This review examines the methods and challenges in androgen laboratory diagnostics, discussing their advantages, limitations, and evolution; it presents no new experimental results.

This study used a newly developed RP-HPLC method to accurately measure finasteride distribution in human cadaver skin after applying different vesicular drug delivery systems.

This study developed and validated a high-performance liquid chromatographic method for identifying finasteride and its degradation products, showing excellent resolution and sensitivity under various decomposition conditions.

This study found that LC-MS/MS assays provided more reliable and precise steroid measurements in human serum compared to traditional immunoassays, particularly at lower concentrations.

This study developed an efficient LC-MS bioanalytical method to simultaneously quantify minoxidil sulphate and latanoprost in skin layers, supporting the formulation of topical treatments for androgenic alopecia.

This study developed a reliable HPLC-UV/Vis method to determine aluminum phthalocyanine chloride in skin, supporting its use in skin permeation studies for photodynamic therapy of cutaneous tumors.

This study developed a sensitive and precise scFv-based ELISA for miroestrol quantification, aiding quality control in P. candollei plant materials and health supplements.

Low-dose acitretin helps nail psoriasis, stem cells may treat scarring alopecia, Chinese men have lower baldness rates, lateral foldplasty is good for ingrown toenails, hair diameter helps diagnose female baldness, childhood trauma linked to alopecia areata, certain hair-weaving leads to scalp conditions in African American women, and new methods for hair research and understanding hair and sweat gland development were introduced.

This study found that finasteride effectively inhibits the enzymatic activity of human steroid 5 alpha reductase type II in newly established CHO cell lines.

This review discusses the relevance of human androgen receptor action in sports doping and examines the potential of cell-based biological assays for detecting androgenic anabolic steroid use, without presenting new research findings.
