In this study, researchers found that in late pregnancy, the neuroactive progesterone metabolite allopregnanolone inhibits HPA axis responses to immune challenges via an opioid-mediated mechanism.

This study found that oral administration of finasteride to pregnant rats caused dosage-related developmental toxicities, including hypospadias and decreased anogenital distance in male offspring.

This review discusses the mechanisms and pathways of FGFR signalling and its roles in development, disorders, and therapeutic targeting, but reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a genetic locus associated with idiopathic scoliosis in females, which might influence spinal gene expression and was previously linked to protection from early-onset alopecia.

This article discusses treatment options for androgenetic alopecia, noting that medical interventions like finasteride and minoxidil can halt and partially reverse hair loss in mild to moderate cases, especially when combined with surgery.

This review discusses the multifactorial etiology of hypospadias, including genetic predispositions and possible environmental factors, and highlights the need for further studies on genetic and environmental contributions to its increasing prevalence, without presenting new findings.

This study reported that while various treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia showed limited effectiveness, dutasteride most effectively stabilized the condition among patients at Duke University.

This study found that the transcription factor p63 is crucial for horizontal basal cell differentiation in the olfactory epithelium, suggesting a p63-dependent mechanism activates reserve stem cells after injury.

This study found that Wnt signaling regulates the symmetric division of adult neural stem cells, increasing their numbers during subependymal regeneration, stroke response, and colony formation.

This article reviews recent advancements in understanding and treating androgenetic alopecia, focusing on new genetic insights, stem cell roles, and diagnostic tools, without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that during late pregnancy in rats, there is an increase in extrasynaptic GABA A receptor number in granule cells of the dentate gyrus, linked to hormonal fluctuations.

Finasteride treats enlarged prostate, shrinks it, improves urination, but may cause sexual dysfunction and isn't for women or children.

This review examines the neuroendocrine mechanisms underlying seasonal changes in mammals and highlights areas needing further research, reporting no new experimental results.

This article presents an update on a family with Coats' plus disorder, documenting additional symptoms and two new similar cases, and reviews literature suggesting a link to dyskeratosis congenita for potential molecular insights.

This study observed that Japanese women experience diffuse central hair loss after age 40, characterized by reduced hair density and thicker hair ratio rather than vellus-like hairs.

This review discusses circadian clock regulation in stem cells and its role in processes like neurogenesis, but reports no new results; the authors emphasize its significance in stem cell function across various tissues.

This article reviews the potential relationship between different forms of permanent hair loss such as cicatricial pattern hair loss and discusses related conditions, reporting no new clinical findings.

This study found that β-catenin signaling increases in newly born glial cells in the cortex after traumatic brain injury in mice, suggesting potential targets for enhancing recovery through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

This review discusses the role of lamins in development, tissue maintenance, and stress response, and does not report new experimental findings.

This study analyzed changes in hair diameter and density with age in Caucasian women, highlighting variations in perception of hair amount over time.

This study suggests that adding metformin to diet and exercise improves insulin resistance and hyperandrogenism in women with PCOS, though lifestyle changes alone may enhance menstrual cycles.

This protocol describes using two-photon laser-scanning microscopy to study hair regeneration in live mice, offering detailed imaging capabilities for observing hair follicle stem cell behavior and manipulating cellular populations.

This study observed that autologous PRP and PDRN injections improved hair thickness and density in women with pattern hair loss, with combined therapy showing greater improvement in thickness than PDRN alone.

This review discusses various techniques for evaluating hair shedding and alopecia but reports no new clinical results. The authors emphasize the value of specific clinical and instrumental methods in assessing hair growth.

This review discusses hormonal influences on hair growth and suggests that understanding hormone-gene interactions may improve treatment of hirsutism and alopecia, but reports no new clinical findings.

The LRRK2-G2019S mutation in Parkinson's disease has a lifetime penetrance of 25-35%, and finasteride may help reduce symptoms in adult male Tourette syndrome patients.

This article contains additional supporting information available online but presents no new research findings.

This study observed that hair density and thickness were significantly reduced across multiple scalp sites in South Korean women with hair loss, highlighting potential patterns that could aid in differentiating hair disorders.

This review discusses nonsurgical techniques for facial masculinization and feminization in transgender patients and reports no new clinical findings, utilizing data from analogous procedures in cisgender individuals.

Finasteride may help reduce symptoms in male Tourette syndrome patients.
