This study found that FucoPol hydrogel membranes can effectively deliver model drugs such as caffeine and diclofenac sodium via different loading methods, with notable mechanical and release properties, suggesting their potential as platforms for topical drug delivery.

This study found that novel androgen antagonists incorporating a carborane moiety showed anti-androgenic activity comparable to flutamide in a laboratory setting.

This study found that adding calcitriol to metformin significantly improved symptoms in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome and decreased serum MCP-1 levels compared to metformin alone.

The new chitosan dressing heals wounds better and faster than current products.

Nanocrystals improve alopecia areata treatment by better targeting hair follicles.

In this study, researchers developed a new prostate cancer imaging agent, a [99m Tc]tricarbonyl complex derived from finasteride, which demonstrated high radiochemical purity and significant uptake in the prostate of a rat model, suggesting its potential for noninvasive prostate cancer imaging.

This study characterized the CYP154C7 enzyme from *Streptomyces* sp. PAMC26508, highlighting its ability to hydroxylate steroids efficiently, particularly androstenedione, and identified key amino acids important for substrate selectivity and catalytic efficiency.

This study found that transgenic expression of COX-2 in mouse basal keratinocytes causes epidermal hyperplasia and certain dysplastic features at specific body sites.

This study found that the compound 9,11-dehydrocortexolone 17alpha-butyrate (CB-03-04) showed strong local antiandrogenic activity in animal models, suggesting potential for treating prostate conditions.

In this systematic review, animal studies showed that cytarabine causes multi-organ toxicities, notably neurotoxicity, linked to oxidative stress and other mechanisms, though study quality raises concerns about reliability and translation to human outcomes.

This article discusses the effects of ablative carbon dioxide laser treatment for skin rejuvenation, noting it requires only a single treatment but involves more complex postoperative management, without reporting new clinical outcomes.

This study found that incorporating acrylic and methacrylic acid into poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) copolymers improves film mechanical properties but negatively affects their interaction with keratin for hair care applications.

This study reports the crystallization of the human androgen receptor's ligand-binding domain with nonsteroidal ligands, which may aid in understanding the differences in binding compared to steroidal ligands.

This research elucidates the molecular mechanisms underlying carbamazepine and griseofulvin's inclusion complex channel formations with polymers, revealing why carbamazepine forms stable channels independently, while griseofulvin requires polymeric support due to weaker interactions.

This narrative review on inositol use in PCOS treatment found positive results for myo-inositol alone and effective outcomes for a myo-inositol/D-chiro inositol combination at a 40:1 ratio, suggesting further research on other combinations like 66:1 to 100:1.

This study established a stable cell line for CRF1 receptor screening, which can be used to develop functional cosmetics and modulators potentially affecting hair re-growth.

This study identified a heterozygous de novo mutation in the ODC1 gene causing a new disorder characterized by overgrowth and developmental delay, and suggests that DFMO treatment may help manage elevated ODC activity and putrescine levels.

In this study, Carthamus caeruleus root juice exhibited in vitro anti-inflammatory effects by stabilizing human erythrocyte membranes and inhibiting albumin denaturation, as well as showing potential inhibition of COX-2 through in silico analysis; however, further research is needed to confirm efficacy and mechanisms.

This study explored the solubility and crystal structure of GI197111X, a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor for androgenetic alopecia, finding its solubility in Capmul MCM suitable for a soft gel dosage form.

This study suggests that caribine may enhance the interaction between CRFR and maltose binding protein, potentially offering a new approach for treating hair loss.

In this study, researchers developed a novel periodate oxidation method for extracting keratin micro-units from waste hair and feathers, achieving yields of 31.28% and 20.64% respectively, enhancing the stability of oil-in-water emulsions and suggesting potential for sustainable biomaterial production.

This study comprehensively compared different crystalline forms of finasteride, including the new finasteride DMF solvate hemihydrate, to better understand their structural characteristics and intermolecular interactions.

This study found that carbonic anhydrase II was significantly upregulated in human keratinocytes when treated with toll-like receptor 3 agonist and Th2 cytokines, suggesting its potential role in inflammatory skin conditions.

This review summarizes recent advancements and future trends in the design and application of metal oxides for biocatalytic therapeutics, discussing their structural diversity, catalytic site tunability, and therapeutic applications, such as in cancer therapies and ROS scavenging, as well as challenges for their future utilization.
