This study found that in young men with post-finasteride syndrome, there are potential genetic risk factors associated with psychological and sexual dysfunctions, suggesting genetic screening may be beneficial before prescribing finasteride.

This study found that high-dose cyproterone acetate was effective for treating hirsutism, but 33% of patients felt their condition worsened on low-dose maintenance therapy, despite no significant change in objective measures of hair growth.

This research reported that using an electromechanical system based on flexible nanogenerators significantly accelerated skin wound healing and hair growth, and reduced food intake in rat models.

This letter discusses the potential connection between androgenetic alopecia and COVID-19, suggesting a possible new therapy, but it reports no new results.

In this study, a novel VDR gene mutation was identified in a child with HVDRR, and the researchers observed that high-dose intravenous calcium therapy led to significant and sustained improvement in rickets symptoms.

This study found considerable variation in hair shaft proteomic profiles among Caucasian, African-American, Kenyan, and Korean subjects, with individual and site-specific differences observed.

This study used proteomic profiling to reveal significant individual and site-specific differences in human hair shaft proteins, which may improve the differentiation of hair based on ethnic origin and individual identity.

This study found that Smad7 perturbs hair follicle development while promoting sebaceous gland formation by antagonizing Wnt/β-catenin signaling in transgenic mice.

This study found that overexpression of Smad7 in transgenic mice led to severe alterations in multiple epithelial tissues, resulting in early death after birth.

This study found several microRNA-related genetic variants linked to epithelial ovarian cancer risk, with a notable association at the 17q21.31 region, suggesting potential new susceptibility genes.

This review examines cell senescence pathways in melanocytes, highlighting the involvement of telomere attrition, the p16/RB pathway, and cAMP signaling in the context of melanoma development, but reports no new findings.

This review examines the roles of Smad-4 and Smad-7 in hair follicle differentiation and development through BMP signaling and TGFβ/Activin/BMP pathway inhibition but reports no new experimental results.

In this study, germacrone from Curcuma aeruginosa showed anti-androgenic effects by inhibiting 5α-reductase, suggesting its potential as a lead compound for treating androgen-dependent disorders.

This study found that the loss of Smad4 in keratinocytes reduces Dsg4 expression via disrupted BMP signaling, contributing to hair follicle degeneration and alopecia.

This study found that early-onset baldness in African-American men is associated with an increased risk of developing prostate cancer and more aggressive tumors, with potential interactions involving age and smoking.

This observational study provides cause-specific mortality estimates to help patients and physicians better understand long-term outcomes for localized prostate cancer based on initial treatment choices.

This study reported that exogenous R-spondin-1 can restore hair follicle neogenesis in adult mouse cells, highlighting differences in gene expression and signaling pathways between fetal and adult dermal papilla cells.

This review reports that while finasteride effectively treats androgenetic alopecia and benign prostatic hyperplasia, persistent adverse effects on sexual, psychological, and metabolic health have been noted, highlighting the need for ongoing research and careful risk assessment for safer clinical usage.

This study found that Italian nurses who worked night shifts, in non-COVID wards, and reported regular meal intake were more likely to contract SARS-CoV-2.

This study found a strong correlation between antioxidant activity and phenolic content in rosemary, influenced by bioclimatic and seasonal factors in different stages of Tunisia.

This case report describes a patient with autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 3 who experienced total hair regrowth following the successful control of diabetes with insulin therapy.

This study reported that different types of alopecia have distinctive dermoscopic patterns, which aids in their diagnosis.

This study assessed patient satisfaction and hair retention in 15 individuals with alopecia treated with Biofibre ® 4.0 artificial hair implants, finding high levels of satisfaction and excellent biocompatibility, with no significant adverse reactions reported after one year.

This case study reports the rare occurrence of widespread soft-tissue calcification in a young patient with SLE, suggesting that 99mTe-phosphate compounds could help diagnose this complication.

This study found that the E6 gene, but not E7, was responsible for HPV8-induced expansion of keratinocyte stem cells in hair follicle junctional zones in mice.

This study found that misexpression of Hoxc8 in mice led to ectopic mammary development and suggests Hox genes may play crucial roles in the regional specification and initiation of cutaneous accessory organs.

In a mouse model of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, this study found that inhibiting the protein S100A8 with paquinimod alleviated hair loss and reduced oxidative stress and ferroptosis, suggesting a potential therapeutic strategy for managing this side effect in chemotherapy patients.

This study found that HPV8-induced actinic keratoses may mechanistically involve Lrig1+ hair follicle keratinocyte stem cells, with the E6 gene promoting downstream STAT3 activity in a mouse model.

This study found that transgenic mice expressing human keratin K8 in the epidermis showed increased progression of skin lesions toward malignancy, suggesting a role for K8 in the development of invasive skin cancer.

This study in a murine model of alopecia areata found that IFNg is crucial while perforin is not necessary for CD8 T cell-mediated disease development.
