This article discusses treatments for androgenic manifestations using cyproterone acetate alone or with estrogens, but it does not provide new clinical results.

This review discusses the effects of neuroactive testosterone metabolites on CNS functions and suggests their potential as therapeutic options for neurological disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that the active metabolite minoxidil sulfate promotes vascular relaxation by enhancing potassium permeability, which may inform understanding of minoxidil's antihypertensive and hair growth effects.

This study observed that acute stress in rats increased neurosteroid levels linked to enhanced GABA(A) receptor function, raising seizure thresholds, while similar effects were seen in mice with deoxycorticosterone administration.

In this review, researchers highlighted that natural polyphenolics like flavonoids and resveratrol may help enhance testosterone production in aging males by boosting the expression of the Star gene in Leydig cells, potentially preventing age-related degenerative conditions linked to testosterone insufficiency.

Among patients diagnosed with hair loss at a Miami dermatology department, this study found that oral minoxidil prescriptions increased significantly among English-preferring patients six months after media attention, but not for Spanish-preferring patients or within three months for either group.

This study found that neuroactive steroids like DHEA and pregnenolone influence cocaine-induced appetence in mice through their interaction with the ς₁ receptor, suggesting a role in individual vulnerability to addiction.

This narrative review reflects on the challenges faced by FDA's Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee members, highlighting public pressure, decision-making complexity, and the evolving landscape of cancer drug development.

In this study, Ishige sinicola extract was observed to improve bone density and structure in an animal model of estrogen deficiency-induced osteoporosis, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic option for postmenopausal osteoporosis by inhibiting osteoclast formation without cytotoxic effects.

This letter discusses adverse events related to low-dose oral minoxidil for alopecia, highlighting age-related risks and stressing the importance of contraindication awareness with no new clinical results presented.

Auxin promotes root hair growth through oxidative processes involving reactive oxygen species.

This review discusses emerging research on the transcription factor Sox6 and its roles in cardiovascular and kidney function, highlighting its involvement in diseases such as cardiomyopathy and diabetes; it reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that finasteride was nongenotoxic in Drosophila, while doxazosin mesylate and saw palmetto induced homologous recombination, indicating potential genotoxic actions under the test conditions.

Nandrolone and oxandrolone could help treat male health issues like muscle loss and low testosterone.

This study found that niosomal aminexil was more clinically effective for hair growth than conventional aminexil solutions, and that niosomes facilitated aminexil penetration through rat skin without propylene glycol.

This review evaluates the clinical experience of using low-dose oral minoxidil for treating alopecia and highlights the ongoing concerns about its potential side effects without reporting new clinical results.

This study developed a transgenic mouse model to explore androgenetic alopecia, finding that inducible COX2 expression led to sebaceous gland changes and hair miniaturization, with reversible effects upon reducing COX2.

Alloxan diabetes, methylthiouracil, cortisone, and adrenaline affect how white mice hair follicles use glucose and cystine and their cell division.

In this study, GTx-027, a selective androgen receptor modulator, significantly inhibited tumor growth in certain breast cancer models and showed good tolerance in a Phase II trial with postmenopausal women.

In this case report, a 9-year-old girl using topical minoxidil for alopecia experienced a 6-second asystole with syncope, suggesting careful cardiac monitoring may be needed for minoxidil users.

This study found that the FER/MLO signaling module plays a crucial role in calcium oscillations and ROS production in root hair tip growth, with the MLO15 protein regulating these processes and restoring disrupted growth and signaling in fer mutant root hairs.

This study found that a microneedle patch using manganese thiophosphite showed greater hair regrowth potential compared to minoxidil, even with less frequent application, for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This article reviews the potential male equivalent of polycystic ovarian syndrome, focusing on hormonal alterations and premature androgenic alopecia, but reports no new clinical findings; the authors highlight the need for further studies on adrenal steroids and other factors.

This case report describes a child with Gomez–Lopez–Hernandez syndrome, highlighting developmental challenges and medical interventions, yet noting academic success and participation in mainstream activities.

This study identified NM_026333 as a potential anti-aging gene that, when induced, may alleviate proton-induced aging symptoms in CF6-overexpressing and high salt-fed mice.

This article reviews recent discoveries about the role of the nitroxide free radical NO in vascular physiology and suggests potential implications for minoxidil's vasodilatory action, but reports no new clinical findings.
