This paper reviews the use of interferons, particularly alfa interferon, in treating cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, noting its substantial efficacy both alone and in combination therapies with predictable, generally well-tolerated side effects.

This study suggests that minoxidil activates PGHS-1, which may explain its hair growth-stimulating effects and could aid in designing more potent hair growth-promoting drugs.

This study found that human skin expresses proenkephalin, whose expression is upregulated by environmental stress and varies in pathological conditions, increasing in psoriasis and decreasing in melanocytic tumors.

This study concludes that fetal skin cells can significantly enhance wound healing and reduce scarring when used to treat severe burns and various wounds in children.

This study found that the EtOAc extract of Tridax procumbens aerial parts significantly inhibited rat paw edema and COX enzyme activity, suggesting its potential anti-inflammatory properties.

This article reviews therapy-related hair disorders in oncology patients, detailing underlying mechanisms and potential management strategies, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study of reproductive-aged women in Tehran, idiopathic hirsutism and polycystic ovary syndrome were reported to be prevalent, with rates influenced by the screening methods used.

This study found that only eumenorrheic polycystic ovary syndrome patients showed a temporal coupling between kisspeptin and luteinizing hormone pulsatile secretions.

This review covers the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to P450c21, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study identified thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) as a stimulant of wound healing in both frog and human skin models, suggesting it as a potential neuroendocrine wound repair promoter.

In this study, transgenic male mice over-expressing the androgen receptor in mesenchymal stem cells showed reduced fat mass and improved glucose clearance, suggesting enhanced androgen sensitivity may alter body composition.

This study found that increased dihydrotestosterone levels were observed in both androgenetic alopecia patients and controls, suggesting that follicle sensitivity to DHT may be more critical than DHT levels for alopecia development.

This study found that measuring reproductive hormone levels in brown bear hair may effectively support non-invasive genetic sampling, though larger samples or more sensitive techniques are needed for broader application.

This review suggests that decreased serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels may play a role in different types of non-scarring alopecia, but further studies are needed to explore vitamin D supplementation as a therapeutic option.

This study observed that serum AMH concentration and LH/FSH ratio showed comparable diagnostic value for PCOS among infertile women, though neither is adequate alone for diagnosis.

Continuous light exposure in rats leads to PCOS-like symptoms and suggests sleep habits might affect the disorder's development.

This study found that increased serum A4A levels were associated with more severe polycystic ovary syndrome phenotypes and could be a useful marker for biochemical hyperandrogenemia.

This study found that conditioned media from epidermal progenitor cells improved skin aging signs in a clinical trial and protected fibroblasts from oxidative stress in vitro.

This article discusses the discovery of the first known menstruating rodent, the spiny mouse, and proposes that a significant increase in progesterone during the luteal phase is a unique feature of menstruating species, but reports no new experimental results.

This study suggests that lower serum and tissue vitamin D receptor levels in alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia patients may play a role in the pathogenesis of these hair diseases.

This study found that maternal Nano-Se supplementation in cashmere goats improved antioxidant status and promoted secondary hair follicle development in fetuses at 110 days.

Finasteride reduces inflammation and improves immune response after trauma by altering hormone levels.

This study found that obese Taiwanese women had a lower incidence of acne than non-obese women, despite having higher serum testosterone levels.

This review discusses the clinical features, genetics, and treatment of 21-hydroxylase deficiency, a common type of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and reports no new research findings.

Higher thyroid hormone levels may be linked to certain types of polycystic ovary syndrome.

In studying wild meerkats, researchers observed that matriarchs with high androgen levels during late gestation exhibited increased dominance and aggression, affecting both their behavior and their offspring's aggression.

This study developed and validated a label-free assay using LC-MS to screen for S5αR inhibitors, identifying Thai herbal extracts, Impatiens balsamina L. and Curcuma longa L., as promising sources.

This study found that obesity in PCOS women with biochemical hyperandrogenemia lowers androstenedione levels and increases the testosterone to androstenedione ratio, but this was not observed in women with clinical hyperandrogenemia or in controls.

This study found that elevated serum levels of IL-15 in active alopecia areata patients are correlated with disease severity, suggesting it plays a role in disease pathogenesis.

This study reported that pulverizing hair samples significantly improves the precision of testosterone measurement, with higher testosterone concentrations observed in men than in women.
