This article discusses the paradoxical effects of valproic acid on hair, reporting both drug-induced hair loss and the potential for hair growth when used topically, but presents no original research findings.

This study found that loss of epidermal PPARγ in mice altered the expression of many genes related to skin inflammation, keratinization, and sebaceous gland function, indicating its key role in maintaining skin homeostasis.

In this study, FMN was found to inhibit androgen receptor function and androgen-regulated gene expression in prostate cancer cells, suggesting potential as an antiandrogen therapy.

This study found that hair manganese levels did not vary by acute coronary syndrome or stable coronary artery disease severity, but a modest, non-significant correlation with body mass index suggests a potential link between manganese homeostasis and cardiometabolic status that warrants further investigation.

This review compiles existing research on infrared radiation's effects on human skin, noting both its potential harmful thermal impacts and encouraging therapeutic applications, but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that hair loss disorders like Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis may result from mutations that disrupt post-transcriptional regulation of HR protein expression by PCPB2 interacting with Hr mRNA.

This study found that the protein C4BPA may link insulin resistance and acne vulgaris by influencing lipid metabolism and inflammatory pathways, suggesting it as a potential mediator in the pathogenesis of both conditions.

This study demonstrates that Bazi Bushen capsules may have therapeutic potential against skin photoaging in mice by enhancing NRF2 expression and targeting the KEAP1-NRF2 pathway.

This study describes the development of a prototype clinical expert system that uses a belief rule-based inference methodology to improve the risk stratification and diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome by addressing uncertainties in clinical data and domain knowledge.

This study concluded that Buserelin can effectively inhibit gonadal activity in children with central precocious puberty over 18 months, potentially improving final height predictions with prolonged treatment.

This study suggested that MRF may support skin regeneration and rejuvenation by promoting collagen synthesis and regulating factors involved in fibroblast activation and ECM remodeling, with preliminary findings indicating ADSCs might aid these processes.

Nelfb is essential for dermal fat development and survival.

This study found that men with early-onset androgenic alopecia are less responsive to the cardiometabolic effects of bromocriptine compared to men with normal hair growth.

This study found that the BP-3 extract from Boesenbergia rotunda, rich in panduratin A, demonstrated strong anti-adipogenesis and lipolysis effects on preadipocyte cells at non-toxic concentrations, and when formulated into a serum reduced thigh circumference and improved skin firmness in a human trial.

In this study, remote photobiomodulation therapy to the lungs improved behavioral and neurological outcomes in rats with repeated closed-head injuries, suggesting potential preventive benefits for brain health.

This review suggests that brassinosteroids may have similar biological activities in both plants and other organisms, prompting further exploration of steroid regulation mechanisms across different life forms.

This study found that individuals with alopecia areata had significantly higher serum levels of retinol-binding protein 4 and increased IgG immunoreactivity against it, suggesting a role in the disease's pathogenesis.

This study found that the circadian clock regulates the activation state of murine epidermal stem cells, affecting tissue homeostasis and susceptibility to tumorigenesis when disrupted.

This case report highlights that a patient with resistance to thyroid hormone was misdiagnosed as having Graves’ disease, leading to unnecessary radioactive iodine treatment.

This study reported high analytical performance of an RMP for DHT quantification, with the ability to differentiate between 5α-DHT and 5β-DHT isomers, making it suitable for routine assay standardization and clinical sample evaluation.

In this study, bicalutamide at low doses was not linked to significant liver enzyme changes compared to other androgen-blocking treatments in transfeminine adolescents and young adults, suggesting its safety with careful monitoring for this population over one year.

This study found that higher BMI in PCOS patients at a Chinese clinic was associated with functional disorders of androgen excess, suggesting BMI may predict hyperandrogenism in this population.

This study found that photobiomodulation via LED light at 630 nm and 810 nm increased proliferation and mineralization in osteoblast-like cells, with comparable effects between the two wavelengths.

This study observed that maize plants, including a root hairless mutant variety, did not exhibit typical root growth or compensatory foraging behavior under severe boron deficiency in soil, indicating atypical responses compared to other plants.

This study found that unripe Rubus occidentalis extracts may inhibit benign prostatic hyperplasia development in a rat model by reducing prostate weight and androgen-related gene expression.

In this study, knockout of B-raf and C-raf genes in mice showed they are not needed for early melanocyte development, but are crucial for maintaining melanocyte stem cells, as evidenced by hair graying due to stem cell depletion.

This article reviews the diverse regulatory roles of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone in skin biology, highlighting its potential involvement in maintaining tissue homeostasis and protecting against inflammation-induced DNA damage but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers found that the compound BMS-470539 induced a senescence-like state in fibroblasts from systemic sclerosis patients, reducing fibrosis-associated markers in vitro and decreasing skin thickness in a mouse model of skin fibrosis, suggesting a novel therapeutic strategy for managing fibroblast-driven diseases.

This review discusses the role of acyl-CoA binding protein (ACBP) in the epidermal barrier, noting that its disruption in mice is linked to skin and fur abnormalities; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that PTEN regulates the number and genomic stability of hair follicle stem cells in the skin, with its deficiency leading to increased stem cell accumulation and senescence through interactions with BMAL1 and BMI-1.
