This study found that among mixed connective tissue disease patients in a tertiary care hospital in Pakistan, Raynaud phenomenon was the most common clinical feature, present in 80% of patients.

This study found that supplementing Angora goats with whole field bean seeds postpartum did not prevent weight and body condition losses but was associated with improved mohair growth and kid weight gain, likely due to better nutrient partitioning towards lactation and hair growth.

This case study reports that a 26-year-old woman with epidermolysis bullosa prurogompsa also presented with unique findings of co-existing muscular dystrophy and immune-based myasthenia gravis, with significant improvement following steroid treatment.

This study found that metformin significantly improved clinical and hormonal indices in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome compared to pioglitazone, which also effectively controlled some symptoms.

This study found that home-use microneedle devices combined with 5% minoxidil are not inferior to using 5% minoxidil alone for treating pattern hair loss, and may safely enhance hair growth.

In this randomized study, patients with early favorable Hodgkin lymphoma showed similar complete remission and survival rates whether receiving 2 or 4 cycles of ABVD and 20 Gy or 30 Gy IFRT, though reduced toxicity was associated with fewer cycles and lower radiation doses.

Understanding breast cancer requires considering both medical advancements and social influences.

This study found that testosterone and dihydrotestosterone significantly decreased the proliferation of papilla cells compared to dermal fibroblasts and outer root sheath keratinocytes in cultured hair follicle cells.

This article discusses the effectiveness and indications of sex hormone therapy for various skin disorders and emphasizes the importance of avoiding androgen-effective contraceptives, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews pathologic mechanisms causing hair changes in women on hormonal contraceptives or pregnant and reports no new study results; hormonal effects on the hair cycle stages are suggested.

This study observed that in hormone-starved prostate cancer cells, the androgen 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone rapidly induces matriptase activation and shedding, which involves androgen receptor signaling and requires both transcription and protein synthesis.

This study found that polyamines enhance genome integrity by facilitating homologous recombination-mediated DNA repair, suggesting a novel role for polyamines beyond promoting cell growth and proliferation.

This study found that Hoxc gene expression can reprogram mesenchymal dermal papilla cells, enhance epithelial stem cell regenerative potential, and promote region-specific hair follicle regeneration through Wnt signaling.

This study identified five FDA-approved drugs—cepharantine, clofazimine, metergoline, imatinib, and efloxate—as potential candidates for repurposing to interfere with viral entry in COVID-19 treatment.

This review discusses the biological roles and diagnostic significance of keratins in mammalian colon epithelial cells and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of reactive oxygen species in regulating oscillating apoplastic pH gradients and growth in plant root hairs and pollen tubes, reporting no new experimental results.

This study found that in dogs with alopecia, certain steroid hormone levels were elevated, particularly progesterone, but not all hormone abnormalities were consistent across breeds, suggesting the need for breed-specific evaluation.

This study found that the transcription factor HB24 plays a critical role in root hair elongation in Arabidopsis thaliana by promoting the conversion of indole-3-butyric acid to indole-3-acetic acid through regulation of IBR1 expression.

This study presents recombinant human hair keratins K31 and K81, observing novel nanostructures from their self-assembly and emphasizing disulfide crosslinking's role in this process.

This study found that subclinical hypothyroidism had minimal impact on the metabolic and hormonal profiles of women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

This study found that menopausal status and hormone therapy significantly affect the histology and gene expression of the introitus, with post-menopausal women showing notable tissue remodeling associated with vaginal atrophy.

This study developed a new method for detecting 30 hormones in anti-aging functional foods, demonstrating good sensitivity and reliability, and identified seven hormones in four out of 14 samples tested.

In Angora rabbits, overexpression of miR-129-5p was found to induce apoptosis and inhibit proliferation of dermal papilla cells, highlighting its role in hair follicle development by targeting HOXC13.

In this article, the authors reviewed essential terminology and recommendations for creating a welcoming healthcare environment for transgender patients and providing gender-affirming therapy, emphasizing the unique health needs and disparities faced by this population.

This study found that transverse sections of scalp biopsies, particularly looking at the anagen:non-anagen hair ratio and presence of pigment casts, effectively distinguish alopecia areata from androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, Allium hookeri extract increased viability and size of dermal papilla cell spheroids and reduced oxidative stress effects, potentially promoting hair growth by regulating specific protein signaling pathways in human cells.

The case report describes a 27-year-old woman with polycystic ovarian syndrome who experienced successful treatment outcomes from individualized homeopathic care over seven months.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome in the Black Sea Region had higher levels of androgens, obesity, and insulin resistance, increasing their risk of metabolic syndrome compared to healthy women.

In this study, researchers found that 4-Octyl itaconate (4-OI) inhibited cisplatin-induced ferroptosis and protected auditory cells by activating the NRF2/HO-1 signaling pathway, suggesting a potential therapeutic approach for reducing hearing loss associated with cisplatin treatment.
