This study summarizes how the IL-23/IL-17 axis contributes to inflammatory skin diseases like psoriasis and highlights that biologics targeting this pathway, including monoclonal antibodies against IL-23 and IL-17, have shown efficacy in clinical trials for these conditions.

This review highlights recent insights into how IL-15 influences T cell responses and contributes to immunopathogenesis in various diseases, suggesting its crucial role in TCR-independent activation and potential in optimizing therapeutic strategies.

This article is a discussion piece that examines the clinical symptoms of hyperandrogenic women with COVID-19, without reporting new research findings.

This study found that GI198745 acts as a time-dependent inhibitor of rat 5α-reductase type 2 but a rapid-equilibrium inhibitor of type 1, potentially making it more effective than finasteride in preventing rat prostate growth.

This study reviews the mechanisms by which SARS-CoV-2 may impact male fertility, noting potential disruptions in spermatogenesis and hormone secretion, and underscores the need for follow-up in recovered men.

This review discusses hypopituitarism's bidirectional relationship with COVID-19 due to metabolic comorbidities and pituitary risks, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that Panax ginseng extract significantly inhibited DKK-1-induced catagen-like changes in human hair follicles by promoting cell proliferation and reducing apoptosis, suggesting it may help mitigate hair loss associated with DKK-1.

This review discusses sex differences in immune response to respiratory viral infections, including SARS-CoV-2, and highlights that hormones like estrogen may provide females with better protection, but it reports no new results.

This study found that men have higher COVID-19 positivity, hospitalization, and death rates than women, even when accounting for age differences.

This review discusses the complexity and genetic organization of human keratin gene clusters and addresses the ongoing need for an updated unified naming system; it reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that using growth factors and ADSC-conditioned medium can enhance keratinocyte viability and migration in epidermal transplantation, potentially improving chronic wound healing rates with a patient-dependent effect.

This case report describes a woman with hyperandrogenism and menstrual disturbances, where an ovarian steroid cell tumor was identified and removed, leading to resolution of symptoms.

This study found that adding concurrent and adjuvant temozolomide to radiotherapy for patients with anaplastic gliomas improved progression-free survival without adversely affecting health-related quality of life.

This article discusses the highlights and key topics from the 17th Congress of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology but reports no new results.

This study found that hypoxia-conditioned mesenchymal stem cell exosomes increased GM-CSF and decreased IL-1 expression in a dose-dependent manner in a murine model, suggesting potential for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This review examines the potential of K18 as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in epithelial-derived tumors, highlighting its specific expression in tumor tissues and interaction with proteins involved in tumor progression, without reporting new clinical findings.

COVID-19 can cause different types of hair loss, with telogen effluvium being the most common.

This study found that premature hair loss due to stress does not occur in NK-1 receptor knockout or mast cell deficient mice, suggesting a key role for neurokinin substance P and mast cell interaction in stress-related hair follicle changes.

The document recommends a multidisciplinary approach and experience sharing to advance facial feminization surgery as a medical field.

This review discusses various drugs and their uses across multiple therapeutic categories but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that in scarring alopecia, stem cells are differentially localized, suggesting that both inner and outer root sheath stem cells, rather than just follicular bulge stem cells, are involved.

This study found that IGF-1 injections increased hair follicle number and growth phase duration in wild-type mice, suggesting potential for baldness treatment.

In this study, fraction No. 3 of Oryza sativa bran extract demonstrated high unsaturated fatty acid content and significant 5α-reductase inhibition, suggesting potential for developing anti-androgenic alopecia products.

This review explores possible reasons for why male COVID-19 patients experience more severe symptoms and higher fatality rates than female patients but provides no new clinical results.

This study found that sebaceous glands predominantly exhibit oxidative activity of the type 2 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase isozyme, which is not inhibited by 13-cis retinoic acid.

This study found that combining fractional erbium-glass laser therapy with topical minoxidil significantly improved hair density and diameter in men with androgenetic alopecia compared to using minoxidil alone over a 24-week period, with no serious adverse events reported.

This study found that activating CB1 receptor signaling in human hair follicles increased stem cell proliferation while reducing differentiated cell survival, suggesting CB1's role as a survival stimulus for epithelial stem cells.

This review discusses current anti-inflammatory treatment options for calcium pyrophosphate crystal deposition disease (CPPD) and highlights the lack of crystal-targeted therapies, emphasizing the need for more research to guide treatment.

In this study, the CYP 21A2 gene p.V281L mutation was associated with an increased susceptibility to familial frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting an antigen-driven mechanism linked to certain human leukocyte antigen haplotypes.

This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia had increased scalp microbial diversity and reduced Staphylococcus abundance, particularly in the frontal and vertex regions, suggesting this dysbiosis as a sensitive indicator of AGA.
