In this case report, two cats with asthma developed localized skin lesions associated with inhalant glucocorticoid use, which resolved after adjusting treatment and administering milbemycin.

This study found that encapsulated Garcinia mangostana Linn extract in a cream base penetrated more deeply and homogeneously into porcine ear skin compared to other formulations.

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 role of adult stem cells in tissue homeostasis and wound repair, focusing on their regulation within the murine hair follicle's specialized niche, but it presents no new findings.

This chapter reviews various antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors, detailing their mechanisms, uses, and side effects, with a focus on spironolactone, finasteride, dutasteride, and oral contraceptives.

This study found that finasteride microemulsions significantly increased skin permeability in vitro, highlighting the potential for enhanced delivery of this drug through the skin.

In this study, testosterone increased the expression of epithelial sodium channel proteins and mRNAs in rat kidneys, suggesting a potential mechanism for its effect on blood pressure through enhanced sodium reabsorption.

In this study, researchers used a hypospadiac rat model to demonstrate abnormal genital development, similar to human penoscrotal hypospadias, highlighting the model's value for studying penile growth and differentiation.

The researchers found that HOXC13 regulates different keratin proteins in a mixed manner, with certain SNPs impeding this regulation, while also demonstrating negative-feedback by HOXC13 and positive regulation by LEF1 and melatonin on the HOXC13 promoter.

This study found that inhaling toluene reduces core temperature in mice, with GABA receptors and neurosteroids involved at 4000 ppm, but different mechanisms contributing at 6000 ppm.
