This study found that Grateloupia angusta extract improved wound healing by promoting matrix production and pro-angiogenic activity in cell cultures and enhanced early wound repair in a mouse skin incision model.

This review highlights the potential of microneedles as a pediatric-friendly method for delivering proteins, vaccines, and diagnostics transdermally, noting their ability to penetrate the skin's barrier and suggesting future applications in other parts of the body.

This study found that, although finasteride reduced dihydrotestosterone levels in males with heavy episodic drinking, it did not significantly alter brain activation or craving but was linked to a stronger desire not to drink.

In this study, araliadiol, a plant-derived compound, exhibited senomorphic effects in three dermal fibroblast senescence models, suggesting its potential as a topical treatment to mitigate skin aging by reducing certain senescence-related markers and increasing procollagen type I content.

This research review highlights how hair cortisol concentration can reflect the activation of the stress-response system in farm, domestic, and wild animals, noting it correlates with factors like species, sex, age, and environmental conditions, which may influence stress and adaptation.

This study found that in domestic cats, black hair contained significantly higher cortisol concentrations than white hair, whereas ginger hair showed no significant difference compared to white hair. Additionally, a positive correlation was reported between hair cortisol levels and behavioral issues mentioned by cat owners.

In this Delphi study, international experts established consensus-based guidelines for diagnosing and managing persistent chemotherapy-induced alopecia (pCIA), recommending prevention through scalp cooling and early use of minoxidil, while advising against bicalutamide and certain finasterides for breast cancer patients due to safety concerns.

This review highlights that while low-dose oral minoxidil appears well-tolerated in cancer patients post-chemotherapy, its use during active chemotherapy has shown potential benefits but remains under investigation, with preclinical studies suggesting a protective effect against chemotherapy-induced alopecia.

This study highlights conflicting evidence on the safety and efficacy of nutritional supplements for hair loss in breast cancer patients, emphasizing the need for oncologist management and further research.

LMWP-PDGFA shows promise for improving hair health and treating hair loss with fewer side effects.

This case report identified a connection between idiopathic intracranial hypertension, papilledema, and newly diagnosed systemic lupus erythematosus in a young woman, highlighting the importance of thorough system reviews in such circumstances.

In this review, the authors highlight that drugs promoting androgenic activity or inhibiting estrogenic activity may unmask or worsen androgenetic alopecia in genetically predisposed individuals, indicating the need for careful management in clinical settings.

This review assessed the safety of oral antiandrogen treatments for female androgenetic alopecia, finding spironolactone to be potentially safe even in high-risk populations, but indicated ongoing uncertainty regarding other medications, especially for patients with a history of gynecologic cancers.

In this study, researchers developed a novel platform for discovering potential hair loss inhibitors by investigating the testosterone/dihydrotestosterone biosynthetic pathway and its regulation through biochemical mechanisms involving 17β-HSD and 3β-HSD, combined with medicinal plant extracts.

In this study, researchers investigated factors predicting resistance to clomiphene citrate in women with anovulatory PCOS, identifying AMH and SHBG levels as significant indicators, but they found no reliable thresholds for predicting resistance to the standard 50 mg/day dose.

The document concludes that inflammation markers can be used in diabetes, vitamin D3 affects immune pathways, hyperthyroidism changes hormone levels, androgen levels help diagnose Adrenocortical Carcinoma, erectile dysfunction is linked to diabetes, hypogonadism is common in HIV-infected males, and hormones can be biomarkers for various conditions.

This study found that supplementing Angora goats with whole field bean seeds postpartum did not prevent weight and body condition losses but was associated with improved mohair growth and kid weight gain, likely due to better nutrient partitioning towards lactation and hair growth.

This study suggests that combining finasteride with traditional herbal formulas Yongdamsagan-tang or Paljung-san may not interfere with drug metabolism while potentially enhancing anti-inflammatory effects for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study provides genomic and epigenomic insights into the white wax scale insect, highlighting high methylation levels and differential hormone profiles linked to its sexual dimorphism and developmental differences.

This study found that a 50% ethanol extract from marine green alga Chlamydomonas sp. W80 exhibited several bioactive properties, including skin lightening and hair growth promotion effects, with potential implications for bioenergy and high-value coproducts.

This study found that women with androgenic alopecia often have increased dihydrotestosterone levels, suggesting potentially enhanced activity of 5-alpha-reductase, with the saliva free testosterone level providing valuable hormonal background information.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia is associated with insulin resistance, elevated adipokines levels, and dyslipidemia in males, while female patients generally maintained a normal hormonal profile.

This study explored the Belanger tradition, a Sasak hair-cleansing ritual using natural ingredients, and concluded that it combines cultural heritage with sustainable practices and scientifically supported benefits.

This study identified that biotin ingestion led to interference in immunoassay results, falsely indicating high testosterone and insulin levels in a 28-year-old female patient, thus complicating her clinical assessment and treatment planning until recognized and resolved.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia patients had significantly lower serum levels of paraoxonase 1, which correlated with disease severity and suggests a role of oxidative stress in its pathogenesis.

This review found that 5α‐reductase inhibitors were associated with slightly increased rates of decreased libido, erectile and ejaculatory dysfunction, gynecomastia, and mood disorders compared to placebo, though their long-term effects remain unclear.

This collection of interdisciplinary studies highlights research from various institutions on topics relevant to Brazilian social development, but it reports no new empirical findings.

This study reported the development of a workflow that combines SIMS and X-ray elemental mapping techniques for multimodal imaging at the single cell level, successfully applied to visualize elements, metals, and lipids in porcine skin without loss or delocalization.

This study found that AIRE, a usually nuclear protein, is expressed in the cytoplasm of human epidermal and follicular keratinocytes and associates with the intermediate filament protein cytokeratin 17, potentially impacting ectodermal abnormalities in APECED syndrome.

This study found that CI-1033 caused skin lesions in rats that resemble effects seen in humans receiving EGF receptor inhibitors, suggesting this animal model can help explore the mechanisms behind this cutaneous toxicity.
