This study found that minoxidil inhibited lens epithelial cell migration, proliferation, and collagen secretion in vitro, suggesting it may help prevent postoperative capsular opacification.

This study confirms that finasteride inhibits the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone in human dermal fibroblasts, suggesting potential therapeutic use for androgen-related skin disorders.

This study examined Bcl-2 and COX-2 expression in Lichen Planus cases, highlighting their roles in apoptosis protection and inflammation, with results analyzed statistically.

This paper discusses the role of steroid sulfatase in hormone-dependent tumors and highlights the development of potent inhibitors, noting the commencement of a phase I trial for one inhibitor in postmenopausal breast cancer patients.

In this study, homozygous VDR null mutant mice exhibited nonfunctional vitamin D receptors, leading to growth abnormalities and revealing the limited physiological importance of vitamin D pathways outside the classical receptor.

This study identifies mutations in the SRD5A3 gene as a cause of a new type of congenital disorder of glycosylation, impacting mental, ophthalmologic, and cerebellar functions.

This study suggests that programmed cell death plays a crucial role in shaping the structure of the human epidermis and its appendages during development.

This review discusses the complexities of diagnosing and treating iron deficiency related to nutritional anemia and hair loss, concluding that routine screening and supplementation for hair loss are not yet supported by sufficient evidence.

This study reported that transgenic mice with targeted TNF alpha expression in keratinocytes showed impaired weight gain, retarded hair growth, and skin changes, leading to cachexia and necrosis.

This article argues that androgen sensitivity could be a key factor in the severity of COVID-19, suggesting that trials with anti-androgen agents may be warranted.

This study found that expressing certain PIN proteins in Arabidopsis root hairs inhibited growth by decreasing auxin levels, while PIN5 slightly stimulated growth, demonstrating differential effects on auxin transport.

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 found that treatment with mesenchymal stem cell extracellular vesicles enhanced hair growth in mice and stimulated dermal papilla cell activity and growth factor production in vitro.

This chapter reviews the complexity of hair and wool follicle formation, emphasizing the importance of cytological studies to understand the relationship between cellular components.

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

This review discusses the structural and functional advances in understanding sulfotransferases and sulfatases, highlighting new insights into enzyme mechanisms and inactivation by clinically relevant aryl sulfamates, but provides no new experimental results.

This study found that TPA was significantly more effective than mezerein in inducing dark basal keratinocytes in mouse skin, which may be important in early tumor promotion stages.

This review explores how androgens and growth hormone influence the development of terminal hairs and sebaceous glands, attributing variability in hirsutism and acne to differing genetic sensitivities to androgens, but reports no new experimental data.

This study identified that a deficiency in the palmitoyl transferase enzyme, due to a mutation in the Zdhhc13 gene, led to severe physiological abnormalities in mice, including skin, bone, and systemic amyloid issues.

This study proposes the miR-22-5p-LEF1 axis as a novel pathway that may regulate hair follicle stem cell proliferation.

This study introduced a novel in vitro assay for tracking melanosome transfer between melanocytes and keratinocytes, facilitating the quantification of melanin transfer and supporting the role of filopodia as a conduit.

This study observed that dandruff in Indian women is associated with a distinct scalp microbiome, including specific bacterial and unknown Malassezia species, with implications for nutrient homeostasis and cell-host adhesion pathways.

This study suggests that exosomes derived from dermal papilla cells, especially those cultured in three dimensions, promote hair growth and regeneration by enhancing follicular cell activity.

This review discusses 46,XY disorders of sex development caused by defects in androgen production and highlights the need for long-term care from experienced multidisciplinary teams, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This review examines the role of steroidal inhibitors in treating prostatic diseases but presents no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of estrogens in hair follicle cycling and the skin, highlighting the need for more research on estrogen signaling pathways and their interactions with other factors in hair biology.

This review discusses the role of CYP gene polymorphisms in exacerbating hyperandrogenism in women with PCOS and reports no clinical results; further validation of this hypothesis is needed.
