In this study, researchers found that methylation of the SRD5A2 gene in blood and tissue samples can serve as a biomarker to predict men's clinical response to finasteride treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia, offering a non-invasive method for assessing potential treatment success.

This study found that reduced hair samples showed higher protease degradation than permed hair, which increased with repetitive perming, and degradation was influenced by the type of mercaptan used.

In this study, researchers accomplished the total synthesis of calanthoside, noted for its strong proliferative effects on human hair follicle dermal papilla cells, using a seven-step process from anthranilic acid with a 43% overall yield.

This study concluded that Aloe vera fermentation significantly accelerates burn injury healing in rats by reducing inflammation and altering gut microbiota composition.

This study found that the ethanol extract of Sterculia urceolata and its fractions stimulated hair growth in male rabbits, with a 15% concentration of the water fraction showing the most significant effect.

This study found that the ethyl acetate and chloroform fractions of Eclipta prostrata Linn. exhibited significant anti-inflammatory activity in a carrageenan-induced paw edema model and showed notable anti-arthritic potential in a formaldehyde-induced arthritis model.

This review discusses the properties and extraction methods of keratins from natural fibers and highlights their promising applications in fields such as biomedicine, bioengineering, and forensic science, but reports no new experimental results.

This abstract details known indications, categories, and potential reactions for various drugs, including anorexiants, estrogens, NSAID analgesics, cardiac glycosides, and migraine preventives, without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that introducing rat ornithine transcarbamylase gene into spf-ash mice improved liver and intestinal enzyme activity and normalized some metabolic indicators.

This study found that monoethanolamine-based hair color formulations caused significantly more damage to hair than ammonia-based formulations, especially at high concentrations.

This study found that local androgen biosynthesis and metabolism in human sebaceous glands play a crucial role in sebum synthesis and secretion.

Finasteride can cause itching, burning, and other side effects that may not go away after treatment.

This study found that treatment with mercuric acetate modifies the elastic properties of Lincoln wool fibers more rapidly than human hair, explaining the enhanced unshrinkable quality of wool under certain conditions.

This study developed a new quantitative method to measure skin cell turnover in just 4 days, showing it can effectively differentiate skincare product performance and revealing that turnover slows with age but responds more to treatments as people get older.

This study reported that the combination of EE-CPA and raloxifene effectively manages PCOS-related infertility, enhancing pregnancy outcomes through improvements in metabolism, sex hormones, ovarian function, and endometrial receptivity, without significantly increasing adverse effects.

This review explores the synthesis and potential of azasteroids as novel drugs, discussing challenges in their production and reporting no new clinical results.

Green algae can break down finasteride, reducing environmental harm.

This study found that overexpression of the enzyme spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase in mice was associated with increased fat oxidation and a leaner phenotype, while knock-out mice exhibited increased fat accumulation.

This article outlines the synthesis of spiro[cyclohexane‐1,2′‐[2 H ]indene] derivatives similar to known steroid 5α‐reductase inhibitors, but it does not report experimental findings.

Polymethylene wax in hair relaxers makes hair smooth and shiny with less damage.

This study found that a nanoemulsion hair spray formula with 25% PEG 400 showed promising physicochemical stability, but further research is needed to assess its colloidal stability and efficacy in hair growth.

This study evaluated new aqueous gel formulations of minoxidil without irritants and found that the calcium alginate gel showed the best performance in terms of drug release and skin permeation.

In this study, researchers investigated the formation of spherical crystals of minoxidil in various alcoholic solvents, discovering new types like spherulite aggregates and a unique butterfly-shaped crystal, with the spherulite aggregates showing improved powder flow properties compared to other forms.

This study found that compounds 21–23 and 25 exhibited strong 5α-reductase II inhibition in vitro and significantly reduced rat prostate weight, performing comparably to finasteride.

This study investigated improving Finasteride's water solubility using trimethyl-β-cyclodextrin (TM-β-CD) and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) as carriers, finding that β-CD improved Fin's cumulative release, while TM-β-CD enhanced its solubility, with computational data supporting these outcomes.

This study reports that newly synthesized steroidal trienones exhibit higher 5α-reductase inhibitory activity than dienones in various biological models, suggesting potential use in treating androgen-dependent diseases.

This study found that topical γ‐Oryzanol significantly stimulated sebaceous gland cell activity and sebum production in rats.

In this study, researchers identified a temperature-sensitive mutation in the FERONIA gene of plants that prevents root hair formation at elevated temperatures, highlighting its role in maintaining root hair growth and response to plant hormones.
