This review highlights the connection between sex hormones and metabolic dysfunction, emphasizing how conditions like male hypogonadism and female hyperandrogenism can increase the risk and severity of hepatic steatosis, which often progresses alongside metabolic syndrome and elevates mortality risks.

In this study, the combination of camouflage and psychotherapy significantly improved quality of life for vitiligo patients and potentially modulated psycho-neuro-endocrine-immune interactions.

This study found that tomato plants inoculated with Enterobacter sp. SA187 grew better under salinity and heat stress, showing improved biomass, ion balance, chlorophyll content, and antioxidant enzyme activity, potentially enhancing crop tolerance to environmental stress.

This review suggests systemic changes in polycystic ovary syndrome may increase the risk of neurodegeneration, potentially linking it to Alzheimer's disease through common pathways affecting tryptophan metabolism.

Wharton's Jelly stem cell medium may help treat skin issues in Systemic Sclerosis.

This study suggests that hair loss disorders like Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis may result from mutations that disrupt post-transcriptional regulation of HR protein expression by PCPB2 interacting with Hr mRNA.

This narrative review suggests that nutraceutical insulin-sensitizing agents like myo-inositol, alpha-lipoic acid, and vitamins may improve glycemic control and reduce inflammation in insulin resistance-related skin disorders; however, more robust long-term trials are needed to confirm these findings and establish treatment regimens.

This study found that women with PCOS had significantly higher levels of several autoantibodies compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential autoimmune component to PCOS that might aid in better disease characterization and personalized management.

This study found that neonatal blocking of androgen and estrogen pathways in rats altered sex-specific expression of estrogen and androgen receptors in adult pituitary and adrenal glands, potentially influencing lifelong neuroendocrine function.

This review outlines the design and engineering of multifunctional hydrogels, emphasizing their evolving biomedical applications, notably in controlled drug delivery, tissue support, and disease management, and discusses their potential for clinical translation.

This study found that applying an ethanol extract of Prasiola japonica improved hair regrowth, length, and follicular density in testosterone-induced hair loss conditions in mice, while also promoting dermal papilla cell proliferation and reducing dihydrotestosterone production, though effects were less pronounced than those of minoxidil.

This study reports conflicting evidence on whether GLP-1 receptor agonists are associated with various forms of alopecia, suggesting dermatology practitioners should consider monitoring and counseling patients using these medications.

This review highlights emerging evidence that chemotherapy-induced alopecia may be driven by immune mechanisms similar to alopecia areata, involving hair follicle immune privilege collapse, and evaluates Janus kinase inhibitors as potential treatments, while cautioning about their immunosuppressive risks in cancer patients.

This chapter explores the promising use of low-power laser irradiation for post-hysterectomy reconstructive care, emphasizing enhancements like a flexible fiber optic module, to potentially improve genitourinary rehabilitation in cervical cancer patients.

This systematic review synthesizes evidence from the past 20 years to highlight the potential of exosome-based therapies from stem cells and plants in improving cutaneous repair, skin aging, and challenging dermatological conditions through mechanisms like immunomodulation and collagen remodeling.

This study reports that in human glioblastoma and neuroblastoma cell lines, 24-hydroxycholesterol significantly suppressed the conversion of testosterone to growth-inducing androgens via the 5α-reductase pathway, revealing a new connection between cholesterol homeostasis and androgen metabolism.

This randomized trial found that topical GT20029 significantly increased hair counts and width in Chinese men with androgenetic alopecia over 12 weeks, showing better results than placebo, with the 0.5% once daily and 1.0% twice weekly doses particularly effective.

This chapter highlights the potential of exosomes as innovative agents in cosmetic dermatology, noting their ability to promote skin rejuvenation and target issues like wrinkles, photoaging, and hair loss.

This study found that melatonin may enhance hair follicle stem cell viability by downregulating the nuclear receptor RORA, which otherwise inhibits cell proliferation and promotes apoptosis.

This review examines sulforaphane's interactions with hormone-mediated health conditions, focusing on gender-specific health issues, but reports no new original research findings.

This source reported that early evidence supports the potential efficacy of exosomes in treating conditions like alopecia, facial rejuvenation, hyperpigmentation, and scarring, but noted that standardization issues need addressing through further studies to better understand their use in aesthetic dermatology.

This review discusses the potential of P. polyphylla saponins to treat acne through antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant effects, noting that acne's complex pathogenesis makes this line of research promising for future studies.

This study found that the herbal extract HX109 promoted hair growth in mice by increasing cell viability and enhancing hair regrowth, with the effects increasing as doses rose.

In this study, neurotrophic factors, synaptic plasticity, and neurogenesis changed in the hippocampus of rats during pregnancy, lactation, and pup deprivation, potentially influencing maternal care.

In this study, the authors reported that mycorrhizal treatment in trifoliate orange seedlings affected root hair growth and auxin-related gene expressions differently under varying phosphorus levels.

This study found that lncRNA H19 may regulate CTGF expression in KGN cells by acting as a "sponge" for miR-19b, potentially influencing polycystic ovary syndrome development.

This study found that while male COVID-19 patients in Brazil exhibited more severe symptoms and required more intensive care than females, the difference in risk of death was relatively small.

This study found that reducing testosterone levels in male mice accelerates wound healing and decreases inflammation, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for improving wound repair in elderly males.

In this study, researchers observed that male COVID-19 patients with more than 23 CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene and lower testosterone levels experienced more severe disease outcomes.

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.
