In this study, researchers found that disrupting the PRL gene in mice led to earlier hair molting, especially in females, suggesting that PRL inhibits murine hair cycle events.

This study found that disrupting the PRL gene in mice alters the timing of hair cycling events, causing earlier molts and changes in hair characteristics, particularly affecting female mice more significantly.

This case report describes a rare instance of a Chinese Crested dog with leukocyte chimerism, normal female external genitalia, and hormonally active Sertoli cell tumors, demonstrating surgery as a curative treatment option.

This review discusses the hormonal and genetic factors influencing acne development, emphasizing the role of androgens and insulin signaling but reports no new clinical results.

This brief report discusses spironolactone used as a treatment for hirsutism in a hyperandrogenic woman, offering no new clinical findings and focusing on its antiandrogenic properties.

This study observed that chemically-induced intersex frogs displayed altered brain mRNA profiles, with finasteride increasing certain hormone-related gene expressions and fadrozole reducing aromatase activity without affecting gene transcript levels.

GABAergic steroid precursors reduce ethanol withdrawal symptoms in certain mice.

This review discusses the role of gut steroids in communicating with the gut microbiota and their potential implications in treating gastrointestinal disorders and related brain conditions, suggesting new perspectives on steroid molecules as therapeutic agents.

This review highlighted that in an in vitro setting, 3D spheroid cultures of fish cells offer a promising alternative to traditional monolayer cultures, potentially advancing research in eco-toxicology, immunology, drug screening, and more by better mimicking in vivo conditions.

This chapter reviews the role of the testes in producing and functioning of testicular androgens and protein hormones, but it presents no new clinical results.

This review explores the diverse physiological roles of the vitamin D endocrine system, discussing current research on receptor structure, transcription details, murine models, and alternative receptors, but reports no new findings.

This review discusses the niches supporting adult stem cells in various organisms, including well-studied germline niches and the less understood mammalian niches, but it reports no new research findings.

This study found that ACE2 and TMPRSS2 genes were more highly expressed in tumors of elderly male cancer patients compared to healthy individuals, with notable differences across age and gender.

This paper reviews the advancements and applications of single-cell transcriptomics in animal research, highlighting its potential to enhance understanding of animal nutrition, health, genetics, and disease models.

This review discusses the role of anti-Müllerian hormone in polycystic ovary syndrome and its male equivalent, but reports no new clinical findings; it suggests further investigation is needed into male relatives' reproductive function.

This study found that the estrous cycle influences the effect of the δ-GABAAR agonist THIP in reducing binge drinking behavior in female mice, with receptor expression elevated during diestrus.

This article reviews Miriam Arbeit's skill-based model for promoting adolescent sexual development, highlighting its focus on adolescents as active participants in their own sexual growth but noting areas for further expansion.

This review highlights the connection between sex hormones and metabolic dysfunction, emphasizing how conditions like male hypogonadism and female hyperandrogenism can increase the risk and severity of hepatic steatosis, which often progresses alongside metabolic syndrome and elevates mortality risks.

This review highlights that hormones significantly influence the wound healing process by coordinating cellular and molecular activities, and hormonal therapy is emerging as a promising treatment, with current research focusing on optimizing dosages and minimizing side effects.

In this study, researchers observed that acute stress increased levels of the enzyme 5αR2 in the medial prefrontal cortex of male rats, affecting stress reactivity, but this effect was not seen in females.

This study found that nuclear androgen receptor expression was enhanced by dihydrotestosterone in rat gubernacular mesenchyme, but this did not affect muscle morphology or matrix composition during fetal development.

In this study, inducible whole-body Acly-knockout mice revealed that ACLY is essential for skin homeostasis, as its deficiency led to increased sebum production and skin abnormalities, indicating a vital role for cytosolic acetyl-CoA synthesis in preserving skin barrier integrity and systemic lipid regulation.

This review highlights potential negative impacts of certain medications on male fertility, such as hormonal disruption and germ cell toxicity, emphasizing the importance of clinicians being aware of these effects to advise on safer alternatives.

This review highlights capsaicin's chemical properties, natural sources, and its potential benefits such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic effects, while also noting its challenges in food applications regarding dosage, taste perception, and regulatory compliance.

In this study, researchers performed a genome-wide characterization of the Wnt gene family in domestic donkeys, identifying 19 genes and highlighting their evolutionary conservation among mammals, along with tissue-specific expression patterns potentially linked to reproductive regulation and tissue homeostasis.

This review examines recent advancements in green and emerging microextraction techniques, such as SPME and DLLME, for more sustainable hormone detection in biological samples, emphasizing environmentally friendly solvents and bioanalytical applications.

In this study, metformin was found to reduce prolactin levels in men with hyperprolactinemia and normal hair growth but not in those with androgenic alopecia, suggesting that androgen excess may interfere with metformin's effects on prolactin.

This review discusses recent advancements in omics and gene editing technologies for studying neuropeptides and receptors in fish, but reports no new experimental findings; the authors highlight the need for further research in this area.

In this study, Carthamus caeruleus root juice exhibited in vitro anti-inflammatory effects by stabilizing human erythrocyte membranes and inhibiting albumin denaturation, as well as showing potential inhibition of COX-2 through in silico analysis; however, further research is needed to confirm efficacy and mechanisms.
