In this study, finasteride reduced the severity of dopaminergic behavior manifestations in rats without causing extrapyramidal side effects, unlike other antidopaminergic agents.

This letter to the editor raises concerns about minoxidil, an arterial vasodilator also used for androgenic alopecia, noting that overdose can cause severe side effects such as distributive shock, pulmonary edema, and myocardial ischemia.

Minoxidil increases blood flow in balding scalps, possibly reversing hair loss.

Created material boosts hair growth and kills bacteria for wound healing.

This study suggests that the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride modulates sensorimotor gating in rats by affecting D1 and D3 receptors, but not D2 receptors, with varying effects based on genetic strain.

This study explored the use of manganese-doped calcium silicate nanowire-incorporated alginate hydrogels (MCSA hydrogels) for treating melanoma and promoting wound healing, finding that these hydrogels effectively ablate melanoma under near-infrared irradiation and enhance vascular endothelial cell activity for tissue regeneration.

This study demonstrated that using lead-doped keratin film as a calibration standard allows for accurate tracking of lead distribution along hair strands, revealing different exposure patterns among workers in a battery manufacturing factory in Thailand.

This study found that in rodent models, the ability of D1 dopamine receptor activation to impair sensory gating is facilitated by 5α-reductase type 1, which produces allopregnanolone.

This study found that applying benzyl nicotinate on open hair follicles led to a significant increase in blood flow, highlighting the role of the follicular pathway in epidermal penetration.

This study reviewed the effectiveness of long pulse 1,064-nm Nd:YAG laser treatments for leg veins, hair removal, and skin rejuvenation, highlighting its safety, particularly for darker skin types, due to reduced pigmentary side effect risks.

In this study, no changes in cutaneous blood flow were observed after applying 2%, 5%, or placebo minoxidil lotion in both androgenetic alopecia and healthy male volunteers.

In this study, the Cu-doped bioglass composite dressings showed promising results for wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in vitro, with enhanced fibroblast proliferation and vascular growth.

This collection from the 2021 Manfred Donike Workshop outlines advancements in doping detection, highlighting new test methods and challenges, with a focus on steroidal substances, peptide hormones, and gene doping analysis.

This study evaluated petroleum jelly-based bioactive glass ointments with varying copper concentrations for wound healing in chronic wound models, finding that the 3 wt% copper formulation significantly improved healing by enhancing tissue regeneration, vascularization, and antibacterial protection compared to controls.

In this study, ZnO nanoparticles synthesized with Ferulago angulata extract and doped with magnesium showed improved antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal properties, and facilitated faster wound healing and hair growth in a burn treatment model, although higher concentrations decreased cell viability.

This study observed that exosome treatment in skin led to increased dermal vascularity and mild inflammation, with one alopecia patient showing hair follicle growth at treated areas.

In this study, conducted during the 22nd FIFA World Cup in Qatar, doping control analysis of 1612 samples showed negative results for prohibited substances, except for two instances each of codeine and carboxy finasteride.

This study found that female patients in Finnish specialized health care with a history of doping use exhibited high rates of psychiatric and substance use disorder morbidity, with less than half of those using anabolic androgenic steroids showing atypical red blood cell parameters.

This study found that UV laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy can effectively differentiate between types of alopecia in patients, showing a high correlation between blood circulation levels and tissue autofluorescence intensity.

This study found a perfect correlation between laser Doppler velocimetry measurements of scalp blood perfusion after minoxidil application and sulfotransferase enzyme activity in hair follicles, indicating a potential non-invasive test to predict minoxidil response in female pattern hair loss.

This review discusses the use of anabolic-androgenic steroids in sports and outlines current methods for detecting urinary steroid doping, particularly testosterone, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study suggests that ultrasound and color Doppler analyses may enhance the differential diagnosis of GnRH-dependent precocious puberty in girls with premature breast development or pubic hair growth.

This article reviews the history and current medicolegal challenges of doping in sports, focusing on FIFA's procedures and three urgent legal issues, but presents no new findings.

In this review, the authors discuss recent advancements in underwater adhesion technologies, specifically highlighting mussel-inspired catechol-based adhesives, which offer strong underwater bonding through various interfacial interactions and the influence of dopamine-modified polymeric tissue adhesives.

This study reports that a new boron/nitrogen-doped carbon nano-onion-based delivery system for doxorubicin enhanced its uptake and anticancer effects in specific cancer cell types, while reducing cardiotoxicity in human heart cells.

This study, using a reporter mouse line, characterized diverse subtypes of dopaminergic neurons in the enteric nervous system, identifying unique subtypes with potential roles in gut function and disease.

In this study, researchers used a reporter mouse model to identify and characterize distinct subtypes of dopaminergic neurons in the gut's enteric nervous system, revealing novel populations with potential implications for understanding their roles and vulnerabilities in disease.

Laser treatment is safe and can effectively treat toenail fungus, especially when combined with other treatments if no improvement is seen after about a year.
