This study found that flutamide, finasteride, ketoconazole, and EE-CPA all significantly reduced hirsutism scores, hair diameter, and hair growth rate in women with hirsutism over 12 months.

This article discusses the use of topical estrogen therapy for androgenetic alopecia in menopausal females and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, high concentrations of dihydrotestosterone and testosterone reduced the growth of human hair follicle cells in vitro, while high estradiol levels increased their growth.

Diazepam's effects on anxiety and memory differ between male and female rats due to hormonal influences.

This study successfully established an immortalized human dermal papilla cell line that maintains characteristics of original cells without malignant transformation, potentially benefiting hair research.

This study found that dutasteride completely suppressed the formation of 5alpha-dihydro metabolites in cultured human skin cells, suggesting its potential use in acne and androgenetic alopecia.

This study found weak to very weak correlations between estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone levels in the cerebrospinal fluid and serum of males without cerebral disorders.

This study found that sex differences in somatostatin biosynthesis in rat hypothalamic neurons develop between postnatal day 1 and 5, influenced by the conversion of testosterone to estrogen.

This study found that treatment with a GnRH agonist and estrogen and progestin replacement significantly improved hirsutism scores and hair growth rates in women with polycystic ovarian disease.

This meta-analysis found that in postmenopausal women with a history of breast cancer, 8 weeks of vaginal estrogen therapy while on aromatase inhibitors did not result in systemic absorption of sex hormones, suggesting potential safety for treating vulvovaginal atrophy in this context.

This report describes a study of estuarine bed-sediment quality in New Jersey and New York post-Hurricane Sandy, focusing on contamination extent and potential long-term impacts, with no new findings included.

This report describes a case where a sex reassignment patient on estrogen therapy experienced complete hair regrowth on a previously fully alopecic scalp.

Detecting steroid esters in cattle hair is inconsistent and influenced by sampling factors.

In this study, 17β-estradiol increased VEGF production in differentiated THP-1 cells, while dihydrotestosterone counteracted this effect by modulating adenylate cyclase activity.

This study established an efficient short-term culture system for human hair follicle stem cells using human fibronectin and ROCK inhibitor Y-27632, enhancing cell proliferation and stemness for potential applications in hair follicle tissue engineering.

This study established a rat model of radiation-induced dermatitis using 90 Gy irradiation, which may aid in exploring new treatments and understanding the pathology, particularly highlighting autophagy regulation as a potential therapeutic target.

This study demonstrates that keratinocyte cell lines derived from cultured hair follicles can fully differentiate in organotypic skin models, offering a minimally invasive alternative to obtaining keratinocytes for research.

In this study, researchers established five new immortalized human dermal papilla cell lines from a male with androgenetic alopecia, which may serve as valuable tools for hair research.

The estradiol valerate/dienogest oral contraceptive helps with heavy periods, may improve acne and symptoms in PCOS, and doesn't affect sexual function.

This study reported that women with female androgenetic alopecia had significantly lower zinc levels in both serum and hair, and lower hair iron levels, compared to healthy controls.

This study found that the estrous cycle influences the effect of the δ-GABAAR agonist THIP in reducing binge drinking behavior in female mice, with receptor expression elevated during diestrus.

The authors concluded that utilizing clock gene expression from hair follicle cells may improve circadian-phase estimation in clinical settings, aiding the detection of circadian-related sleep problems despite social time constraints.

This review discusses the diagnostic challenges of androgen and estrogen-secreting adrenal tumors and highlights that the presence of metastases is the most reliable indicator of malignancy; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study reported that applying natural or artificial folliculoid compounds to mouse skin caused estrous-like changes in internal sex organs, but did not lead to cancerous skin changes.

This survey estimates that the number of follicular units with "permanent" hair available for transplant varies based on hair density and projected male pattern baldness type, providing guidelines for realistic surgical goals.

This review discusses the potential role of vitamin D deficiency in cardiovascular and renal diseases and suggests that supplemental vitamin D could benefit cardiovascular outcomes, especially in African American and postmenopausal women; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study identified several genes regulated by dihydrotestosterone in an SV40T-transformed human dermal papilla cell line, which may play a role in androgen-mediated hair growth regulation.

This study found that progesterone levels were higher and increased significantly throughout pregnancy, contrasting with stable levels in non-pregnant women.

This study found that estazolam improved PTSD-like behavior deficits in an animal model, which was linked to increased allopregnanolone levels in specific brain regions.

This study in male mice found that testosterone provides strong protection against skin necrosis after ischemia, working through its estrogenic and androgenic derivatives to enhance skin survival and revascularization, with 17β-estradiol being notably more effective than dihydrotestosterone.
