This study found that 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone increased pigmentation in dorsal spots and scrotal skin of prepubertal male Syrian hamsters, while estradiol decreased scrotal skin melanocytes and reversed androgen-induced pigmentation in costovertebral spots.

This correspondence addresses the diagnostic challenges in distinguishing between Marie-Unna Hereditary Hypotrichosis and Autosomal Recessive Hereditary Hypotrichosis with Woolly Hair, reporting no new clinical findings.

This review found dutasteride to be effective, safe, and well-tolerated for treating symptomatic BPH and provides expert commentary on its use, though the relationship with high-grade prostate cancer remains unclear.

This study reported no association between higher serum testosterone or dihydrotestosterone levels and the incidence or progression of lower urinary tract symptoms in asymptomatic or symptomatic men in the REDUCE trial, challenging the belief that elevated androgens contribute to these symptoms.

This case report describes an instance of autosomal recessive uncombable hair syndrome caused by maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 1.

This review discusses the production, role, and measurement of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in various disorders of sexual development but does not report new clinical results.

This study used one-dimensional SDS electrophoresis to examine low sulfur proteins in hair samples from multiple generations within five families, but does not report new results.

This study found that nanoparticles can penetrate the skin, but artifacts produced during specimen preparation complicate accurate observation, and proposed a method for reducing errors in imaging quantum dots as tracers.

This study found that certain tandem repeats predict darker hair color across diverse ancestry groups and can contribute to a polygenic score for hair color, independent of SNP variation.

A new compound that could treat various androgen-related conditions was created and analyzed.

This study reports that five new progesterone derivatives demonstrated inhibitory activity against the 5α-reductase enzyme and binding affinity for the androgen receptor in an in vitro hamster model.

This study describes a co-dominant E410D mutation in keratin hHb6 associated with severe hair loss and extensive papules in homozygous individuals, with variable expression in heterozygous family members.

This study concluded that two exemestane preparations are bioequivalent, using a high-performance liquid chromatographic mass spectrometric method to measure concentrations in human plasma.

This research describes the synthesis of 16β-chloro- and 16β-bromo-cyproterone acetate, detailing the chemical processes involved, but reports no clinical outcomes.

In this study, gamma/delta T cells were observed in skin after allergic or irritant reactions to heavy metal salts, suggesting a role in skin defense against these metals.

This study reports the first detection of electromagnetic forces from human hairs, evidenced by the aggregation of iron nanoparticles around hair follicles.

This study found that a single 2 ml injection of TEEV every 4 weeks offers similar beneficial effects with fewer side effects compared to injecting the same dose every 2 weeks in postmenopausal women.

This study concluded that two different pharmaceutical formulations of finasteride were bioequivalent in terms of rate and extent of absorption based on pharmacokinetic evaluations in a randomized crossover study with 38 volunteers.

This study suggests that DHT may have a less potent effect on the prostate compared to testosterone while maintaining safety and similar effects on erythropoiesis and lipids.

Dutasteride works better than finasteride for hair growth with similar side effects.

This study found that ion-paired solutions significantly improved the skin penetration of risedronate in hairless mice compared to risedronate alone.

This study found that the orally disintegrating tablet and standard tablet formulations of finasteride met bioequivalence criteria in fasting healthy adult male Han Chinese volunteers, although there was a significant difference in time to maximum concentration.

This review examines recent advancements in analytical techniques used to quantify dutasteride, a medication for enlarged prostate, in various biological samples and its commercial forms, emphasizing methods such as HPTLC, GC-MS, and HPLC.

This study found that 11α-hydroxyprogesterone is a potent inhibitor of 11βHSD2 in vitro and may serve as a precursor to unique C11α-hydroxy steroids in prostate cancer tissue.

This study found that untreated hirsute patients have lower expression of type 2 17β-HSD mRNA in scalp hairs, indicating potential disturbances in androgen metabolism, compared to treated hirsute patients.

This case report describes a newborn diagnosed with dominant dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa due to a COL7A1 mutation, following the presentation of blisters that healed without further complications.

The researchers identified a pathogenic variant in the SRD5A2 gene among siblings with 46,XY disorder of sexual development, highlighting the importance of comprehensive genetic testing in diagnosis and management.
