This review discusses the expression of circadian genes in hair follicles and their potential for monitoring circadian-rhythm-related conditions, reporting no clinical results; the authors suggest combining hair sampling with other assessments for better insight.

This study found that orlistat significantly reduced weight and total testosterone levels in Iranian women with polycystic ovary syndrome after 12 weeks of treatment.

In this study, COC treatment led to greater improvements in sex hormone, endocrine factor, and metabolic levels among PCOS patients compared to those who did not receive the treatment.

In this study, researchers observed that fasting-induced molting in laying hens led to increased thyroid hormones, which may regulate feather molting by affecting hair follicle growth through specific signaling pathways, highlighting molecular changes during induced molting.

This review of DAVID syndrome cases found that ACTH deficiency often preceded by sinus infections or alopecia is linked to specific NFKB2 gene mutations, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis to prevent complications.

This study found that methylcellulose-based hydrogels can effectively deliver growth hormone through the skin, with albumin increasing the hormone's permeation to 93% in simulated in vivo conditions.

This review highlights the potential of microneedles as a pediatric-friendly method for delivering proteins, vaccines, and diagnostics transdermally, noting their ability to penetrate the skin's barrier and suggesting future applications in other parts of the body.

This study found that hair steroid profiling is a feasible, non-invasive alternative to serum analysis in adolescents, with androgen levels correlating more strongly with body size and composition in boys than girls.

This review discusses recent advancements in omics and gene editing technologies for studying neuropeptides and receptors in fish, but reports no new experimental findings; the authors highlight the need for further research in this area.

This case report illustrates that high-dose biotin supplementation can cause false thyroid function test abnormalities in vitro, emphasizing the need to assess biotin intake before testing.

This review examines lesser-known factors contributing to polycystic ovarian syndrome and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for further research into individualized treatment and prevention strategies.

This review discusses different processing methods for isolating human AD-SVFs/AD-MSCs using various kits and reports no new clinical results, highlighting the need for standardized preparation techniques.

This study found that administering the gut bacterium Thauera sp. strain GDN1 to mice significantly reduced their serum androgen levels, indicating gut bacteria may influence androgen metabolism.

In this study, the authors concluded that the VCD-induced follicular depletion rat model can effectively simulate the perimenopause transition, with hormonal changes distinguishing early/mid-transition from late transition to estropause.

This review discusses the challenges and research gaps in transgender health care, highlighting the need for dedicated research infrastructure and funding to develop a more comprehensive evidence base.

This study found that in Pomeranians with Alopecia X, key genes in the Wnt and Shh signaling pathways and stem cell markers are downregulated, which may explain the absence of anagen hair follicles.

This study found that among older men, lower calculated free testosterone was significantly associated with a higher risk of heart failure, suggesting a possible role of testosterone deficiency in heart failure incidence.

This study reported the first known case of tertiary hypothyroidism in a dog, diagnosed after a Labrador treated for hyperadrenocorticism presented with related symptoms and an MRI-revealed pituitary mass.

In this study on Danio rerio, researchers found that exposure to titanium dioxide nanoparticles did not affect embryonic development but altered the structure of male gonads, acting as potential endocrine disruptors with androgenic activity.

This study observed that individuals with major unipolar depression have higher levels of sodium and potassium in their hair and decreased antidiuretic hormone levels, similar to changes seen in astronauts after space missions.

This review discusses the diagnosis of canine hypothyroidism, focusing on its clinical signs, diagnostic markers, and distinctive skin biopsy findings, but reports no new research results.

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 observed that deslorelin acetate implants reduced sexual activity and improved coat quality in a German Spitz dog with alopecia X, suggesting its potential as a less invasive and reversible treatment for managing reproductive function and this dermatopathy.

This book chapter reviews the genetic and epigenetic factors influencing PCOS, particularly in a global context and specific to India, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that treatment with the GnRH agonist Triptorelin significantly decreased invasion and expression of S100A4 and CYR61 in certain breast cancer cells, suggesting a potential role in slowing cancer progression.

This study reports that in ovarian cell development, FSH-induced OCT4 expression is regulated through the GSK3β/β-catenin pathway mediated by the PI3K/Akt pathway.

This study found a significant association between gut microbiome composition and PCOS in Indian women, relating specific bacterial genera to reproductive health and metabolic indicators.

This study suggests that thyroid autoimmunity may play a role in telogen effluvium pathogenesis, indicating a need for evaluating thyroid autoantibodies in addition to thyroid function tests in these patients.

This study by a panel of 13 clinicians led to 22 consensus statements recommending approaches for diagnosing scarring and nonscarring alopecias, suggesting scalp biopsy for suspected scarring alopecias and specific serologic tests for nonscarring types like alopecia areata based on clinical presentation.

This study found that DHEAS levels were lower in anti-TPO Ab positive PCOS patients compared to those who were negative, indicating a possible link between autoimmunity and reduced DHEAS in these patients.
