This report presents a rare case of suspected 3β HSD deficiency in an adult female with symptoms like male pattern hair loss and low testosterone, suggesting a non-classical presentation.

This study found that the ACE gene DD genotype and D allele are linked to an increased risk of hypertensive IHD complications, with dyslipidemia also identified as a significant risk factor for ischemic heart disease.

This study found that while DP concentrations in dust were higher in male dormitories, DP in hair was higher in females, suggesting differing metabolism between genders and that hair DP mainly originates internally.

This study suggests that women with idiopathic hirsutism have increased 5α-reductase activity, indicated by elevated levels of 3α-diol glucuronide; further research is needed to assess its clinical biomarker potential.

This study found that HPD is a potent activator of hair follicle regeneration, surpassing the efficacy of conventional minoxidil treatment by modulating Wnt/β-catenin signaling and enhancing follicular proliferation, indicating its potential as a non-invasive hair restoration therapy.

This study suggests that combining LMWHA solution and HCO might improve mild to moderate urinary incontinence in women with GSM, potentially offering benefits over HA therapy alone, but further research is needed.

This review provides an overview of the hairless gene in mice and humans, discussing its structure, expression, and implications for understanding skin physiology and human disorders related to gene disruption, but it reports no new empirical findings.

This study found that hidradenitis suppurativa is associated with increased serum levels of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α, suggesting its role in the disease's pathogenesis and as a treatment target.

In this case series study, mild ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome was reported in only one out of 118 PCOS patients receiving highly purified HMG injections for IVF treatment.

This study developed and validated an HPLC method for detecting a novel 5α-reductase inhibitor in human plasma, supporting its pharmacokinetic evaluation at low doses.

In this study, a Chinese Han family with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets was found to have a homozygous missense mutation in the VDR gene, and the affected individual uniquely responded well to treatment with oral calcium and low-dose calcitriol.

This study found that anionic HSES achieved high complexation efficiencies with various steroids, significantly enhancing their solubility, while specific β-cyclodextrin thioethers showed selective binding to testosterone and estradiol.

This article discusses Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV) and highlights the need for continued research, noting that while supportive treatments exist, no vaccines or specific therapies are currently available.

This study found that untreated hirsute patients have lower expression of type 2 17β-HSD mRNA in scalp hairs, indicating potential disturbances in androgen metabolism, compared to treated hirsute patients.

This study found that a hypomorphic mutation in the Hr gene contributes to the development of diet-induced pruritic atopic skin in mice, particularly when combined with dietary deficiencies of polyunsaturated fatty acids and starch.

In this study, a novel VDR gene mutation was identified in a child with HVDRR, and the researchers observed that high-dose intravenous calcium therapy led to significant and sustained improvement in rickets symptoms.

This study found that patient-derived HGF significantly accelerates wound healing in diabetic mice, particularly improving skin structure and flexibility, and rHGF plays a key role in boosting hair growth.

This study found that while prolactin and DHEA-S levels were higher in women with hirsutism compared to controls, there was no significant correlation between second to fourth digit ratio and hormonal profiles.

This case report describes a 40-year-old woman with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome diagnosed with multiple chromophobe renal cell carcinomas, highlighting the importance of recognizing associated dermatologic lesions for early intervention.

This study explored the effects of DPP, a 15-PGDH inhibitor, on human follicle dermal papilla cells damaged by dihydrotestosterone and observed that DPP enhanced wound healing, reduced reactive oxygen species, and increased hair growth in ex vivo human hair follicle cultures.

This study evaluated high-dose oral minoxidil treatment in 57 patients with androgenetic alopecia and found it improved hair density by 10-30% in most cases, but 24.6% experienced adverse effects like hypertrichosis and tachycardia, indicating further research is needed to optimize safety and efficacy.

This study describes new devices, "HairMeasure" and "Scalp Zone Identifier," which offer an economical method to calculate Hair Mass Index without disposable materials.

A specific gene variant is linked to heart disease, increased heart muscle, curly hair, and thick skin on palms and soles.

In this study, researchers developed a novel delivery system using hyaluronic acid gels to encapsulate Huperzine A for Alzheimer's treatment, achieving extended release over 20 days and significantly improving pathology and behavior in mice, including enhanced memory and reduced neuroinflammation.

This case report suggests that human dermal papillae conditioned media may accelerate wound healing in congenital aplasia cutis due to varicella infection.

This study found that using an ultrasound hollow microneedle array enhanced transdermal delivery of finasteride, accelerating hair regrowth in mice with androgenetic alopecia compared to other delivery methods.

In this study, researchers used a UV-Vis Spectrophotometer to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze Dutasteride residues in human plasma, achieving a total recovery rate of 64.992%, and determined that the BTB reagent effectively selected compounds not analyzed in their research.

This study found that Arabidopsis thaliana mutants with altered AtRBOHC/RHD2 enzyme function showed abnormal protein regulation linked to increased drought sensitivity due to disrupted plasma membrane protein balance and cytoskeleton changes, as revealed through proteomic analysis and advanced microscopy.

This systematic review and meta-analysis found that hidradenitis suppurativa is associated with an increased risk of major adverse cardiac events, including cerebrovascular accidents and myocardial infarction, although study heterogeneity affects the magnitude of risk.
