This review summarizes the structural and chemical characteristics of current and novel antiandrogenic drugs but reports no new clinical findings.

This article discusses the challenges in treating androgenic alopecia and highlights its potential links to coronary heart disease and metabolic syndrome but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the occurrence of persistent sexual, physical, neurological, and psychiatric side effects known as post-finasteride syndrome after 5x-reductase inhibitor treatment, and emphasizes the importance of evaluating these risks for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia or androgenic alopecia.

This review explores the role of hyperandrogenism, including adrenal-derived 11-oxygenated androgen, in the development of polycystic ovarian syndrome and discusses potential therapeutic strategies targeting androgen excess, without reporting new clinical results.

This research focused on formulating finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil with cyclodextrins to enhance their solubility and skin penetration for topical use, potentially reducing scalp irritation from current alcohol-based preparations.

This study concluded that prepubertal girls with hypertrichosis have androgen receptors with enhanced sensitivity, which may contribute to their increased body hair growth.

This study evaluated dermatologists' beliefs and counseling practices regarding finasteride's adverse effects, revealing that while 51% believed it could cause sexual side effects, fewer associated it with depression or infertility, highlighting a need for increased awareness and improved patient counseling.

This study found that specific genetic variants in the CYP21A2 and CYP19A1 genes were associated with severe acne vulgaris among Han Chinese, particularly in male patients.

This review elaborates on the concept of cutaneous mosaicism and its link to acneiform conditions, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the use of finasteride for androgenetic alopecia and highlights that while it is considered safe, there is concern regarding its sexual side effects, which reverse upon discontinuation.

This review discusses the dual role of testosterone in COVID-19 progression and suggests its importance in understanding the disease's mechanisms, highlighting the need for further targeted research.

This study found that higher BMI in PCOS patients at a Chinese clinic was associated with functional disorders of androgen excess, suggesting BMI may predict hyperandrogenism in this population.

This review discusses the complex genetic factors contributing to androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the variability in genetic risk across different populations and the emerging understanding of personalized treatment strategies, but reports no new clinical findings.

This book chapter reviews the genetic and epigenetic factors influencing PCOS, particularly in a global context and specific to India, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study on male rats found that finasteride treatment led to the differential expression of several genes in the hypothalamus and hippocampus, hinting at potential links to observed side effects like depression, anxiety, and cognitive disturbances.

This study suggests that post-finasteride syndrome and post-SSRI sexual dysfunction share potential etiopathogenetic mechanisms involving brain modulators, neurotransmitters, and gut microbiota, although more research is needed to understand these conditions fully.

This study found that Lespedeza cuneata aqueous extract reduced serum dihydrotestosterone levels and 5α-reductase mRNA expression in testosterone-induced prostatic hyperplasia in rats, suggesting potential as a treatment for prostatic hyperplasia.

This pharmacovigilance study found strong disproportionality signals suggesting an association between finasteride and Peyronie's disease-related clinical features, but the evidence does not confirm a causal link.

This systematic review and meta-analysis reported potential risk variants for acne in genes related to inflammation and sebaceous gland function, including TNF, CYP17A1, and FST, across diverse populations.

This review discusses advances in molecular biology and genetics related to androgenetic alopecia and reports no new clinical results.

This review explores the mechanisms, current products, challenges, and innovative approaches related to cosmetics for hair loss prevention and growth promotion, emphasizing the need for multidisciplinary cooperation to enhance product development and market success.

This study reviewed early research on topical finasteride for androgenetic alopecia, finding it appears safe and promising, though further investigation is needed to determine optimal dosing, frequency, and potential applications for other types of alopecia.

This study suggests that the DNMT3B -579 G>T polymorphism may be a genetic risk factor for colorectal cancer in the Azerbaijani population.

This study found that prolactin gene polymorphism in Changthangi goats showed no significant association with Cashmere quality traits, indicating the need for further research with larger sample sizes.

In this study, the expression of Gnαs was significantly higher in black mice compared to white mice, suggesting its potential involvement in coat color formation in mice.

This study concluded that allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR) is more reliable than tetra-primer ARMS-PCR for genotyping the SNP rs1998076 due to better stability and interpretability.
