This review discusses recent developments in dermatological treatments for skin conditions such as acne, psoriasis, acute inflammation, and alopecia but reports no new clinical results.

This meta-analysis concluded that 5α-reductase inhibitors may increase the risk of mild depression, particularly with dutasteride, in patients treated for benign prostatic hyperplasia and androgenic alopecia.

This study found that topically applied Chinese black tea extract, when fermented and combined with capsaicin, significantly promoted hair growth in mice, potentially involving estrogen receptor interactions.

This chapter discusses the role of hormones in regulating reproductive biology and outlines how the endocrine system, particularly the brain and pituitary gland, controls these hormonal processes.

This review highlights how forensic drug analysis in hair using modern instrumental techniques offers advantages such as easy sample collection and chronological tracking of drug use, emphasizing its value for law enforcement and other applications.

This review discusses the complex relationship between melasma and factors like female sex hormones, genetics, and ultraviolet light exposure, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study highlighted the promising health benefits of taxifolin, a flavonoid with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and other protective effects found in foods like onions and milk thistle, though more research is needed to fully understand its mechanisms and safety for human therapeutic use.

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 discusses the crucial role of sex hormones in maintaining and influencing skin health, suggesting ongoing research into hormonal treatments for skin conditions due to life stage changes.

Antisense oligonucleotides show promise for treating Myotonic Dystrophy type I.

This study found that Plant Elicitor Peptides enhance root hair growth through a mechanism independent of their known receptors, with PROPEP2 playing a key role in this process by influencing gene expression related to root hair formation.

In this study, the ethyl acetate extract of Semecarpus anacardium Linn leaves was reported to induce cytotoxicity in cancer cells, cause cell cycle arrest, and suppress tumor growth in mice.

This article reviews the role and controversies of 5α-reductase inhibitors like finasteride and dutasteride in managing prostate cancer, without presenting new research results.

This study found that mouse type II spiral ganglion neurites in vitro avoided laminin and high concentrations of fibronectin, indicating both can guide neurite paths differently than type I neurites.

This study observed no teratogenic effects of oral decongestants and surprisingly favorable neonatal outcomes in Swedish women who used them during pregnancy.

This chapter provides an overview of the complex chemical and physical structure of the hair surface, detailing how factors like ethnicity, environmental stress, and cosmetic treatments can alter its properties and influence the adhesion of hair care products.

This study used a newly validated method to find that one-year finasteride treatment resulted in no significant differences in urinary androgen and prostaglandin levels between male pattern baldness patients and normal controls.

This essay critically analyzes photographic narratives of breast cancer, particularly Catherine Lord's and Lynn Kohlman's works, to explore how these narratives deepen understanding of women's technologized bodies and offer discursive resistance and audience engagement.

This study found that Piezo2 channels are primarily located on sensory axon membranes in mechanosensory end organs, supporting a model where mechanical stimuli activate Aβ RA-LTMR neurons via axon protrusions.

This article discusses clinical features and treatment options for hyperandrogenism in women and does not report new findings, highlighting current practices in diagnosis and management.

This narrative review examined skin-sparing techniques in gynecomastia surgery and found satisfactory thoracic remodeling with acceptable morbidity and reduced scarring, but acknowledged methodological differences that limit decisive conclusions.

This thesis investigates the underlying mechanisms and treatment options for androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the molecular roles of androgens and genetic predispositions, and evaluates current and emerging therapies, such as PROTACs and Janus Kinase inhibitors, to enhance patient management.

In this study, a 15-year-old girl presented with symptoms suggesting thyrotoxicosis, and through various diagnostic tests, silent thyroiditis was ultimately diagnosed after negative scintigraphy, highlighting the importance of thorough differential diagnosis in thyroid disorders.

In this study, molecular docking simulations and cell-based assays suggested that certain analogues of cepharanthine might possess anti-SARS-CoV-2 activity.

This review highlights the inadequacy of the "specificity paradigm" in drug design for complex diseases like Alzheimer's and cancer, suggesting a shift toward developing multitarget drugs to improve treatment efficacy by interacting with multiple targets through various mechanisms.

This review discusses the evolution of Cereblon ligands in PROTAC technology, highlighting chemical innovations that may enhance drug-likeness and applicability in protein degradation, while noting challenges and future research directions.

This review examines the physiological, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms by which DHEA and DHEA-S influence various bodily systems, citing rodent studies, but presents no new clinical results.

This review discusses the free hormone hypothesis for measuring "free" testosterone and critiques its theoretical basis and clinical application, noting it lacks critical empirical testing and has inconsistent utility in assessing androgen status.

This study found that several preservatives, including triclocarban and triclosan, showed potential endocrine-disrupting effects on various nuclear receptors in both in silico and in vitro models.

This review summarizes recent research on the molecular properties and functions of L-PGDS and PGD2, but reports no new findings, highlighting their pathophysiological roles and guiding future studies.
