This study found that lean women with PCOS have a similar degree of tissue insulin resistance as obese women with PCOS, suggesting that insulin resistance may be a primary feature of the syndrome.

This study reported variable expression levels of TRα and CRABPII genes during the prenatal development of cashmere goats, contributing to an understanding of hair follicle formation in these animals.

This study found that administering spironolactone or canrenone to castrated male rats significantly decreased the availability of cytoplasmic androgen receptor binding sites, suggesting canrenone mediates spironolactone's antiandrogenic effects in skin.

This study identified a novel V26M mutation in the vitamin D receptor as the cause of hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets in a patient, characterized by severe rickets and an unusual pattern of alopecia.

In vitro, this study suggests that CRH may act as an autocrine hormone in human sebocytes, influencing lipid synthesis and potentially impacting skin disorders related to alterations in sebaceous lipid formation.

This study found that in a mouse model with hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D resistant rickets, a mutant vitamin D receptor lacking hormone-binding ability could restore normal hair cycling and affect parathyroid hormone regulation.

This study established a protocol using anti-steroid antibodies to differentially label epidermal cell contributors, suggesting potential applications in simplifying complex trace DNA mixtures before profiling.

This review summarizes recent research and patents on 17β-HSD3, 17β-HSD5, and 3α-HSD3 inhibitors, suggesting their potential in treating androgen-dependent diseases, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that cortisol increases mac25/IGFBP-rP1 expression in osteoblast-enriched cells from fetal rat calvariae, indicating transcriptional regulation which may influence IGF and insulin effects in bone.

This article discusses the influence of estrogens on hair follicle growth and metabolism, suggesting a significant role alongside androgens in hair growth control but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells, 17β-estradiol repressed polyamine oxidase transcription by interacting with AP-1 sites on its promoter.

This thesis investigates the role of phosphorylation and the mutation F826L in modulating androgen receptor activity, but concludes that the precise effects are not yet fully clear.

This abstract reviews hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, a rare genetic condition causing severe early childhood rickets, and reports no new results; effective treatment typically requires high doses of calcium to address hypocalcemia and secondary hyperparathyroidism.

This review summarizes the use of chlormadinone acetate for hormone replacement therapy and contraception, highlighting its anti-androgenic effects, contraceptive efficacy, and clinical tolerability, without offering new clinical results.

This study investigated the Mandarin duck as a model for understanding lifelong developmental changes, finding that male sail feather morphogenesis involves a combination of local morphogenetic programs, epigenetic regulation, and hormonal cues, with increased female estrogen levels observed before the mating season.

This study mapped potential targets and pathways for baicalin's action in androgenic alopecia, suggesting it may inhibit 5α-reductase and serve as an effective treatment ingredient.

This article discusses differences in hair loss among monozygotic female twins despite identical genetics and reports no new clinical findings.

This study describes the first case of female pseudohermaphroditism due to a novel homozygous glucocorticoid receptor gene mutation, indicating possible pre- and postnatal virilization in affected females.

This investigation reviews the potential impact of polyunsaturated fatty acids on thyroid hormone action and does not report new results, highlighting a need for further research on dietary treatment for hyperthyroidism.

This study found that bolandiol increased lean body mass and bone mineral density in castrate adult male rats, exhibiting tissue selectivity and acting through multiple receptor pathways with less potency compared to other androgens.

This study observed that gene expression differences in Rex rabbits with varying wool densities suggest the involvement of specific genes and signaling pathways, including Shh and Eph, in hair follicle development.

In this study, researchers found that sesamin, a component of sesamum, modulated the AR-MAPK-Wnt signaling pathway in DHT-stimulated HaCaT keratinocytes, demonstrating potential multi-target activity against molecular events in androgenetic alopecia.

This study utilized a sequence-structure alignment approach to improve the characterization of Class A Rhodopsin GPCR superfamily, including orphan and unclassified receptors, through evolutionary analysis.

This review discusses the role of activin signaling in hair follicle formation, hair growth cycling, and skin healing, but presents no new clinical findings.

This article reviews the potential role of prolactin as a neuroendocrine modulator in skin biology and pathology, discussing its relevance for conditions such as psoriasis and hair growth, but reports no new clinical findings.

Alopecia areata may involve stress-related changes affecting hormone receptors, leading to reduced cortisol production.

This article discusses plasma β-endorphin concentrations during natural and artificially induced winter hair growth in mink but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers identified a temperature-sensitive mutation in the FERONIA gene of plants that prevents root hair formation at elevated temperatures, highlighting its role in maintaining root hair growth and response to plant hormones.

In this study, researchers explored whether minoxidil, a common treatment for androgenetic alopecia, may have estrogenic activity and found preliminary evidence suggesting it could act as a partial agonist of Estrogen Receptor α (ERα).

This study presents the first report on cloning and characterizing the full-length cDNA of SRD5A1 in Indian catfish (Clarias magur), revealing expression differences across reproductive phases and increased expression post-Ovatide administration in ovaries and testis.
