This review discusses androgen manipulation strategies for conditions like benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostatic carcinoma but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses consensus guidelines for the use of acitretin in psoriasis, highlighting its ongoing utility in both mono and combination therapies, despite not always being recognized in treatment guidelines.

Testosterone therapy aims to treat hormone deficiencies and various conditions safely and effectively, but requires careful patient monitoring due to potential side effects.

This study reports that biomass activated carbon fibers derived from metaplexis japonica seed hair effectively adsorb methylene blue dye, demonstrating high capacity and rapid adsorption performance.

This study found that the hair interior defect in AKR/J mice is linked to a mutation in the Soat1 gene, which disrupts SOAT1 protein expression and affects lipid metabolism critical for normal hair formation.

This study found that several synthesized pregnane derivatives exhibited significant inhibitory effects on testosterone conversion to dihydrotestosterone and reduced related androgenic parameters in multiple pharmacological models.

This study found that C57BL/6 mice with a diet containing specific levels of vitamin A showed alterations in retinoid metabolism and increased frequency of cicatricial alopecias, suggesting dietary factors may play a role in this condition.

This review discusses the relevance of human androgen receptor action in sports doping and examines the potential of cell-based biological assays for detecting androgenic anabolic steroid use, without presenting new research findings.

This study found that long-term dutasteride therapy in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia worsened erectile dysfunction, reduced testosterone levels, and increased blood glucose and lipid profile, indicating negative metabolic impacts.

The document concludes that there are still unknowns about the effectiveness, risks, and detection of performance-enhancing drugs, and doping remains a challenge.

This study reports that five new progesterone derivatives demonstrated inhibitory activity against the 5α-reductase enzyme and binding affinity for the androgen receptor in an in vitro hamster model.

The researchers reported that in Arabidopsis collet hairs, nuclear positioning near the cell tip is not essential for hair growth, although it correlates with growth dynamics.

This article reviews the toxic effects of mimosine in Leucaena leucocephala and discusses various methods to mitigate its toxicity but presents no new findings.

This study found that feeding mice high levels of dietary vitamin A increased WNT signaling, which activated hair follicle stem cells and may have accelerated alopecia areata progression.

This study found that unsaturated fatty acids are more abundant in the cortex of human hair than on its surface, and steryl glycoside-like lipids may help bind the cuticle to the cortex.

This study found that several new pregnane derivatives, especially steroids 16 and 19, demonstrated higher antiandrogenic activity on male hamster models than the commonly used finasteride.

This review discusses various skin diseases with endocrinological origins and reports no clinical results, highlighting the need for interdisciplinary understanding in diagnosis.

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

This review discusses the role of diet in managing hair loss during menopause and reports no new clinical results; it highlights the importance of nutrients like sulfur amino acids, vitamins, and minerals.

This study describes the development of polyamide 6 composite fibers with amber filler, finding them suitable for use in medical textiles such as compression garments due to their biocompatibility with skin cells.

This review discusses potential treatments for androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new findings, emphasizing the importance of individualized antiandrogenic management to minimize side effects.

This study found that phyto-vesicles of ß-sitosterol showed better absorption and improved activity for treating androgenetic alopecia in rats compared to the compound and its complex.

This study found that inhibiting 5α-reductase in molluscs provokes a specific shell morphology, suggesting gastropods might have unique 5α-reductase substrates absent in vertebrates.

In this study, non-obese females with early-onset androgenetic alopecia showed higher total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and atherogenic index, and lower HDL cholesterol compared to controls, suggesting an association with adverse cardiovascular risk factors.

This study reported that newly synthesized progesterone derivatives significantly reduced prostate weight in testosterone-treated hamsters, with 5alpha-reductase inhibitory activity dependent on the size of the substituent at C-17.

This research article evaluates the protein content of yeast grown on wood hydrolyzate, without providing new results or clinical findings.

Vitamin D3 may prevent hair loss from chemotherapy, but side effects and cancer cell protection are concerns.

This article discusses the role of suction-assisted lipectomy (SAL) and the hCG method in obesity management, highlighting the speculative benefits of hCG but reporting no new clinical findings.

This review examines current and potential approaches to managing chronic wound inflammation through macrophage-targeted strategies using ECM-inspired wound dressings, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that moisture sorption properties of wool and hair fibers from various animals were similar, despite different structural features, with sorbed water being more ordered than liquid water.
