This study found that dihydrotestosterone (DHT) suppresses prostaglandin E2 and TGF-β induced IGF-I gene promoter activity in osteoblasts, suggesting complex interactions among bone growth regulators and potential complications from anabolic steroid use.

This study found that PM2.5 exposure induced oxidative stress in human keratinocytes and mouse skin, causing cellular damage, which was mitigated by the antioxidant N-acetyl cysteine.

This review discusses the complex pathophysiological and clinical aspects of COVID-19, including dermatological findings and their association with SARS-CoV-2 infection but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, the authors concluded that COVID-19 may not cause direct long-term harm to testicular function, but temporary indirect effects could occur, suggesting a possible delay in pursuing parenthood post-recovery.

This case series reports telogen effluvium in three patients following severe Sars-Cov-2 infection and suggests a potential association that merits further investigation.

This study used bioinformatics to explore molecular differences in testicular and ovarian responses to SARS-CoV-2, identifying genes that could be associated with sex differences in infection outcomes.

In this open-label trial, tofacitinib showed dramatic clinical responses in most patients with moderate-to-severe alopecia areata, supporting further research into JAK inhibitors for this condition.

This study found that a 2-deoxy-D-ribose gel stimulated hair follicle growth in mice with androgenic alopecia, showing effects similar to minoxidil without additional benefits from combining the two treatments.

This review assesses platelet-rich plasma therapy for androgenic alopecia in women and found it may improve hair thickness and quality, but more studies are necessary to confirm its psychological benefits.

In this study, low-dose finasteride (2.5 mg/day) significantly reduced hirsutism scores in women over 12 months without significant hormonal changes or serious side effects.

This study found that SDR5A1 gene expression was similar between hirsute women, normal women, and men, suggesting it may not explain differences in hair growth among these groups.

This study found that new hair follicles can form in scarred skin of injured mice, challenging the long-held belief that mammalian hair follicles cannot regenerate de novo.

In this study, researchers developed a rapid platform using primary human lung tissues to identify SARS-CoV-2 targets and test antiviral compounds, achieving highly reproducible results across viral variants.

This article reviews the structure, genomic organization, and pathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 and discusses current efforts in prevention and treatments for COVID-19 without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that individuals in this Egyptian cohort carrying the leucine (L) allele of the 5-α reductase type II enzyme had a higher risk of developing androgenetic alopecia, which may be associated with oxidative stress.

This study found that thymus transplantation in infants with FOXN1 deficiency led to T-cell reconstitution and functional immunity, resolving serious infections and cytopenias.

This study observed that male sex, diabetes mellitus, and high maximum C-reactive protein levels during the acute phase of COVID-19 were linked to elevated anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody levels.

In this study, Far2-/- mice were observed to develop focal alopecia with altered sebaceous gland morphology and lower skin lipid levels compared to wildtype mice.

The researchers reported that keratin 33A is a structural protein specific to goat cashmere hair, with increased winter expression in high-cashmere-producing breeds.

This study reported that combined oral finasteride and topical 5% minoxidil treatment in men with male-pattern hair loss improved hair growth by initiating anagen in pre-existing but deficient follicles, yet the growth rates remained unchanged and did not normalize hair productivity.

This study found that frequent consumption of sweetened tea drinks is linked to a higher risk of female androgenetic alopecia, and this relationship is mediated by late bedtimes but not daily sugar intake.

This study found that patients with psoriasis had a significantly higher prevalence of autoimmune diseases and other comorbidities compared to individuals without psoriasis.

This study found that both high-dose and low-dose finasteride significantly reduced hirsutism scores in women after 12 months, with the lower dose being safe and cost-effective.

In this study, researchers found that gentamicin-loaded exosomes derived from a bovine leukocyte spleen extract significantly enhanced antimicrobial activity and tissue regeneration in infected diabetic wounds, showing potential as an effective therapeutic strategy for diabetic foot ulcers by improving infection control and promoting healing.

This study found that γδ T cells play a role in regulating stromal behavior, influencing the composition and vascularity of fibrotic tissues during the foreign body response.

This case report describes a 40-year-old man whose vitiligo and psoriasis responded favorably to ixekizumab after experiencing vitiligo onset and psoriasis relapse during adalimumab treatment.

In this case report, the rapid clinical improvement of a 2-month-old rescued kitten with severe malnutrition-related ascites after nutritional intervention highlights the importance of nutritional assessment in diagnosing ascites in young felines.

This study found that disrupting inflammasome signaling by eliminating caspase-1 and -11 in mice reduced skin inflammation and delayed the onset of disease, highlighting their role in skin disease pathogenesis.

This research explores developing liposomal formulations to enhance the delivery of difficult-to-absorb agents directly to hair follicles and sebaceous glands, with minoxidil and plasmid DNA as study molecules.

This case report describes how changing treatment from adalimumab to guselkumab successfully controlled both pustulotic arthro-osteitis and paradoxical skin reactions in a patient with palmoplantar pustulosis.
