This paper discusses various toxicological properties of diphenyl cresyl phosphate, highlighting its low acute toxicity, potential neurotoxicity linked to o-cresyl phosphate content, and the lack of data for inhalation exposure, but presents no new experimental findings.

This study found that the mammalian hairless gene encodes a corepressor protein that interacts with thyroid hormone receptors, providing insights into hair loss syndromes in humans and mice.

This case report describes a 60-year-old postmenopausal woman with virilization and hirsutism caused by hilus-cell hyperplasia, which was confirmed following bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy.

Etanercept is safe and may help improve hidradenitis suppurativa, but more research is needed.

In this study, single-cell RNA sequencing of hair follicle populations from hidradenitis suppurativa patients identified three endotypes, suggesting distinct epithelial-immune interactions that may guide stratified therapeutic approaches.

This study established a convenient, accurate, and sensitive HPLC-APCI-MS method for determining finasteride in human plasma, suitable for pharmacokinetic studies.

In this study, a herbal hair oil containing Euphorbia hirta extract showed promising results for promoting hair growth in testosterone-induced alopecia in mice, suggesting it as a potential alternative to synthetic treatments.

This article discusses the role of human scalp hair follicles in neurohormone production and their model potential for studying neuroendocrine signaling, reporting no experimental results.

This study highlights the global prevalence of hirsutism in women and reviews its diagnostic criteria, potential underlying causes like polycystic ovary syndrome, and treatment options, emphasizing the need for tailored, multifaceted management and acknowledging the distress it causes patients.

In this study of women with hirsutism or androgenic alopecia, diverse underlying endocrine disorders including polycystic ovaries and various enzyme deficiencies were detected, often associated with elevated testosterone levels.

This case report describes a 60-year-old male with vitamin A toxicity leading to severe liver disease and symptoms that resolved following liver transplantation, suggesting transplantation as a treatment option for noncirrhotic portal hypertension when symptoms do not improve after stopping vitamin A.

This case study details a 44-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus who developed hypereosinophilic asthma and was initially treated as ANCA-negative eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis. Her condition, eventually classified as HASM, underscores the need for evaluating EGPA-spectrum disorders in similar scenarios.

In this study, researchers observed that testicular 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency in an inbred Arab population in Israel leads to genital ambiguity at birth and progressive virilization after puberty.

In this study, the researchers reported that a newly developed PYGL inhibitor, HTPI, enhanced hair growth in an ex-vivo culture by reducing oxidative damage in hDPCs and inhibiting glycogen degradation in hORSCs, showing potential as a treatment for hair loss comparable to minoxidil.

In this study, researchers characterized a dehydroepiandrosterone hydroxylating enzyme system in hair follicles similar to the liver monooxygenase system, noting its inhibition by carbon monoxide and its dependence on NADPH.

This study found that hirsutism patients had a strong correlation with polycystic ovary syndrome and elevated levels of certain hormones, such as 17-OHP and serum testosterone.

This study describes the enzymatic processes through which DHEA is converted to active sex steroids in human skin, highlighting an androgenic effect on sebaceous glands and estrogenic effects in the vagina.

This study found a recurrent nonsense mutation in the HR gene linked to atrichia with papular lesions in two Kashmiri families, suggesting whole exome sequencing as an efficient method for diagnosis and genetic counseling.

A woman developed white patches on her skin and curly hair after hepatitis C treatment, likely due to the medication interferon alpha.

This letter reports the first known Japanese case of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with compound heterozygous mutations in the LIPH gene.

This study developed an effective and reliable HPTLC method for the simultaneous measurement of linoleic acid and oleanolic acid in Eclipta alba.

This review discusses the molecular mechanisms of Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome and evaluates current research trends, available mouse models, and prospects for developing therapies, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggested that non-colony dissociated hiPSCs can be effectively differentiated into functional RPE cells, and hiPSC-RPE cell spheroids showed promise for use in subretinal transplantation in animal models of retinal degeneration.

This review suggests that finasteride is well-tolerated and potentially more effective than other treatments for hirsutism, with results confirmed by other studies.

This study introduces the MHS Hair Restoration Protocol, a systems-biology model targeting hair follicle health through the gut-microbiome-endocannabinoidome axis and innovative topical treatments, emphasizing a holistic approach to pattern hair loss.

This study suggests elevated homocysteine levels may serve as a biomarker for disease severity and vascular risk in cutaneous lupus erythematosus, indicating potential therapeutic benefits from B-vitamin supplementation and lifestyle changes.

This study found that in early retinal neurogenesis in mice, the transcription factor Lhx2 regulates Sonic Hedgehog signaling by controlling expression of pathway genes like the co-receptors Gas1 and Cdon.

This study found that Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR) may alleviate UV-induced skin photoaging by enhancing collagen synthesis, reducing degradation, and modulating inflammatory and oxidative responses in a dose-dependent manner.

This article discusses the complex pathogenesis of hirsutism and reports no new clinical results; further research is needed for better diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
