Lowering 3α,5α-THP in the hippocampus increases anxiety and depression in proestrous rats.

Higher 3α,5α-THP levels in the brain may reduce depression in pregnant rats.

In this study, ethanol was found to enhance GABAergic neurosteroid production and inhibit long-term potentiation in rat hippocampal slices via unblocked NMDA receptor activation, effects reversible by specific inhibitors.

This review discusses the local production and role of sex steroids in the hippocampal neurons of adult rodents and reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that in male rat hippocampal slices, DHT is necessary for low frequency stimulation-induced long-term depression, while E2 synthesis is essential for high frequency stimulation-induced long-term potentiation.

This article investigates whether finasteride influences adult hippocampal neurogenesis related to depression and reports no new clinical findings; the authors suggest further research on its neurosteroid inhibition.

This study found that testosterone and dihydrotestosterone are crucial for synaptic transmission and spine density in male hippocampal neurons, suggesting sex-specific effects of neurosteroids on brain development.

This study found that hippocampus sparing whole brain radiation therapy (HS-WBRT) using multi-field intensity modulated radiation therapy prevents alopecia without compromising cognitive function compared to traditional whole brain radiation therapy.

Neonatal neurosteroid levels affect adult brain function and behavior.

This study reported that human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived skin organoids, used to model epidermolysis bullosa, have an epidermal-dermal junction largely lacking type VII collagen, which is important for skin structure.

This study suggests that ovarian cycle-related progesterone and neurosteroids regulate α2-subunit expression of GABA-A receptors in the hippocampus through a pathway independent of progesterone receptors, potentially affecting brain conditions linked to the menstrual cycle.

This study found that neonatal administration of allopregnanolone enhances, while finasteride suppresses, the effects of adult intrahippocampal pregnenolone sulphate on rat locomotor activity in an open field test.

This study found that altering neurosteroid levels during early development in male rats can influence KCC2 levels, underscoring the role of neurosteroids in hippocampal maturation.

This study found that local synthesis of 17β-estradiol and 5α-dihydrotestosterone, combined with specific stimulation patterns, is crucial in determining the direction and strength of long-term synaptic effects in the hippocampal CA1 region of male rat slices.

This review discusses the role of YAP/TAZ proteins in skin cancer physiology and tumorigenesis, and the potential of targeting these proteins in skin cancer treatments, but presents no new experimental findings.

This study found that both declining levels of the neurosteroid THP and increasing levels of estradiol before puberty trigger maximal expression of α4βδ GABAA receptors in the CA1 hippocampus of female mice.

This study found that progesterone and its metabolite, allopregnanolone, provided anti-anxiety and anti-depressive effects in female mice, potentially independent of nuclear progestin receptors but requiring 5α-reduction and estradiol's influence on brain-derived neurotrophic factor.

This study using a mouse model reports that CuATSM treatment accelerates skin wound healing and reduces scar formation, with effects possibly mediated via the ferroptosis-induced Hippo/YAP signaling pathway and macrophage polarization, suggesting CuATSM as a potential therapy for scarless wound healing in clinical settings.

This study found that Arc/Arg3.1 expression in hippocampal neurons is regulated by sex steroids in a sex-dependent manner, with E2 increasing expression in females and DHT in males.

In this study, overexpression of YAP1 was found to promote adipogenic differentiation of goat adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells by up-regulating LATS2 expression and activating the Hippo pathway's negative feedback loop.

This case report describes a woman with virilization syndrome who experienced a reduction in androgen levels and reversal of alopecia after removal of a Leydig cell tumor from her ovary.

This study established a method to create stem cell-derived dermal papilla cells and found that their conditioned medium significantly boosts hair growth and offers anti-inflammatory benefits in mice, surpassing minoxidil and addressing androgen-related hair loss.

This study discusses the complex roles and effects of brain-synthesized sex neurosteroids, highlighting sex differences in their concentrations and their varied impacts on synaptic plasticity, cognitive behavior, and aging-related cognitive decline.

This study highlights that hypoalbuminemia, often found in critically ill or elderly hospitalized patients, may increase morbidity, mortality, and hospitalization duration, suggesting specific conditions where oral or parenteral albumin supplementation should be considered.

In this study, chronic finasteride administration in male rats led to depression- and anxiety-like behaviors only in specific tests and moderately affected hippocampal synaptic plasticity, possibly due to adaptive plasma corticosterone level changes over time.

In this study, hypoxic conditions were found to enhance stemness in hair follicle neural crest stem cells, while inhibiting the Hippo pathway significantly decreased their proliferation.

In this study, young adult male albino rats treated with finasteride showed a 10% reduction in thickness of the CA1 layer of the hippocampus, suggesting that this atrophy may contribute to memory impairments linked to Post-Finasteride Syndrome.

This case report describes an infant with mucopolysaccharidosis type II who developed generalized hypertrichosis after receiving a bone marrow transplant and cyclosporine, highlighting the medication's potential role in exacerbating excessive hair growth and reviewing hypertrichosis causes.

This study found that boosting the synthesis of neural-derived 17β-estradiol effectively counteracted the impairment of hippocampal long-term potentiation caused by amyloid beta 1-42 in rat hippocampal slices, with the effect seemingly linked to glutamate NMDAR signaling.

In this study, researchers differentiated human induced pluripotent stem cells into dermal papilla-like cells and observed gene expression dynamics during five stages of dermal differentiation, demonstrating the potential of these cells to interact with epidermal cells in functional assays.
