This study reported a simple and validated gas chromatography method to accurately measure finasteride in tablets, showing equivalency to the official method with no significant differences.

This study found that in male mouse pancreatic islet β cells, testosterone enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion by being locally converted into dihydrotestosterone and estradiol.

This study found that in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia, a 3-month treatment with a long-acting GnRH agonist significantly reduced intraprostatic DHT and 3α-diol levels by about 90% and testosterone by about 75%.

The authors concluded that plasma levels of 3α-diolG, ADTG, and DHTG in women with hyperandrogenic disorders primarily reflect adrenal androgen contributions rather than peripheral action, suggesting a potential index for treatment effectiveness.

This study found that a single 2 ml injection of TEEV every 4 weeks offers similar beneficial effects with fewer side effects compared to injecting the same dose every 2 weeks in postmenopausal women.

This study concluded that the Free Androgen Index (FAI) could serve as a reliable biomarker for hyperandrogenism in women with androgenetic alopecia, showing more predictive value than testosterone or SHBG alone.

This study presents a novel assay that allows for the simultaneous measurement of various androgens and 5α-reductase inhibitors in male serum, facilitating research into the biochemical effects of these inhibitors.

In this study, the free androgen index (FAI) was found to be a reliable marker for diagnosing and monitoring adolescent girls with hyperandrogenism, suggesting clinical reference values for PCOS, obesity, and idiopathic hirsutism.

This review discusses the role of TGM3 in skin and hair follicle biology, human tumor pathology, and genetic abnormalities, and reports no novel results; the authors highlight its potential as a cancer diagnostic biomarker.

This study suggests that metformin might serve as a diagnostic and therapeutic option to distinguish insulin resistance-related ovarian testosterone excess from a testosterone-secreting tumor in women with virilization.

In this study, CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ Regulatory T cells were found to reduce TGF-b1 induced lung fibrosis and fibrocyte accumulation in mice, partly by suppressing fibroblast growth factor 9.

This study found that loss of the folliculin protein delays transferrin receptor recycling, leading to iron deficiency and suggesting a role in the mechanisms of Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome.

This study found that women with Telogen Effluvium in Thi-Qar Province, Iraq, had significantly lower serum Ferritin and Vitamin D3 levels, suggesting these may contribute to the condition's etiology.

In this study, inactivating the TAF4 subunit of transcription factor TFIID in mouse epidermis disrupted gene expression linked to skin and hair function, and increased tumor risk.

This study found that finasteride significantly inhibits the metabolism of tirilazad to its active metabolites without greatly affecting tirilazad's overall clearance.

In this study, researchers identified a highly reactive, isozyme-specific sequence for TGase 3, contributing to understanding its distinct functional role and activity distribution in the mouse epidermis.

This study found that women with female pattern hair loss had significantly lower serum IGF-1 levels compared to controls, but no significant association between IGFBP-3 levels and hair loss severity was observed.

This study found that elevated free testosterone levels may reduce body fat and increase bone density in males, but also raise the risk of prostate cancer, hair loss, and benign prostate hyperplasia.

This case report describes a successful outcome for a fetus with a neck mass attributed to unnecessary maternal PTU treatment for transient hyperthyroidism, highlighting the importance of accurate diagnosis and careful management.

This study found that free testosterone levels were a more sensitive indicator of hyperandrogenism in women with acne than total testosterone levels.

In this study, researchers developed a chemiluminescence assay kit for detecting free testosterone, showing it performed well and met clinical demands with low cost and automation; free testosterone levels differed in patients with various diagnoses, suggesting its diagnostic relevance for diseases such as prostate malignancy.

The LTF gene may help predict and manage nonspecific orbital inflammation.

This study found that salivary testosterone concentrations correlated better with hirsutism in women compared to serum testosterone measures, suggesting it may be an effective method for assessing bioavailable testosterone.

This study found that protein hydrolysates from mealworms, especially those derived using flavourzyme, significantly enhance adipogenic differentiation in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, suggesting their potential as sustainable ingredients for glycemic control, skin health, and tissue regeneration products.

This study describes an analytical technique combining field-enhanced sample stacking with dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction, offering improved sensitivity for detecting finasteride and its metabolite in urine samples from patients treated for androgenetic alopecia.

This study revealed distinct cellular and transcriptomic differences among various subtypes of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, particularly highlighting characteristics unique to folliculotropic mycosis fungoides.

This study found that female patients with telogen effluvium had significantly lower levels of serum ferritin, folate, and vitamin B12 compared to the control group.

This study found a significant association between low serum ferritin levels and chronic telogen effluvium in menstruating women, with iron treatment improving hair growth in those affected.

This study found that women with chronic telogen effluvium had significantly lower serum ferritin levels and higher TIBC levels compared to normal females, suggesting a potential role for iron stores in the condition's pathogenesis.

This study found that the free androgen index (FAI) is a superior marker of hyperandrogenism in men with premature androgenetic alopecia compared to DHEAS and testosterone levels.
