This study observed that androgenic alopecia patients taking finasteride had altered neuroactive steroid levels and persistent depression symptoms even after stopping the treatment.

This paper provides evidence supporting the formation of new hair follicles in adult humans, building on findings previously demonstrated in rabbits.

This study found that significant hair loss in about one-third of patients after vertical gastroplasty was reversed by zinc supplementation.

In this study, finasteride dose-dependently inhibited stress-induced increases in allopregnanolone in rats, while enhancing 20alpha-reduction of progesterone without affecting 3alpha-dihydroprogesterone or 11-deoxycorticosterone levels.

This study found that nanostructured lipid carriers with more soybean phosphatidylcholine provided better skin retention and follicular targeting for diphencyprone compared to other formulations and controls.

This study found that 4 weeks of finasteride treatment significantly decreased DHT levels in bald scalp to levels similar to hair-containing scalp in men with male pattern baldness.

This study found that patients with post-finasteride syndrome exhibited major depressive disorder, severe erectile dysfunction, and neuropathy, alongside altered neuroactive steroid levels in cerebrospinal fluid.

This study identified novel compounds from Bombax ceiba stem bark, including shamimicin, with potent hypotensive effects, and reported that a specific fraction had adverse effects on heart, liver, and kidneys in mice.

This review discusses recent advances in using nanocarrier-loaded gels for various medical applications and reports no new clinical results, highlighting potential advantages in therapeutic strategies.

This study found that ethanol-containing formulations significantly increased minoxidil retention in the stratum corneum and appendages initially, while a propylene glycol-rich formulation enhanced deeper skin penetration over time.

This chapter reviews keratins in skin epithelia, including their roles in cellular function and disease, and reports no new experimental results.

This study found that aged tritiated thymidine breaks down and incorporates into cytoplasmic macromolecules, not DNA, suggesting caution in its use.

This study identified 43 compounds in Platycladi Cacumen, including flavonoids, and found significant chemical variation in flavonoid content across different regions and processed products.

This article discusses the complexity of selecting hair cleansing products and conditioners and reports no new scientific findings or results.

This article reviews organotypic skin culture systems and their applications in dermatological research, highlighting their ability to model human epidermal conditions in vitro, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that serum ferritin levels were lower in premenopausal women with female pattern hair loss compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential role for iron in hair loss.

In this study, a novel electrochemical sensor using a molecularly imprinted polymer was developed for the sensitive detection of minoxidil, successfully measuring its concentration in real samples.

This article reviews recent trends and developments in dermoscopy, highlighting its expanding use beyond pigmented lesions, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that finasteride significantly alters urinary steroid profiles, complicating the detection of steroid abuse in doping-control analysis by potentially causing false-negative results.

This case report describes a patient with an allergic sensitization to minoxidil, indicating that such patients should pursue alternative therapies to treat androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that hair follicle stem cells could enhance burn wound healing and improve tissue tensile strength in rats.

This study found that intravaginal testosterone significantly improved sexual satisfaction and reduced dyspareunia in postmenopausal women using aromatase inhibitors, with no effect on urinary incontinence.

This study suggests that true binary and ternary inclusion complexes were formed between finasteride and 2-hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin, with or without the addition of specific polymers.

This study found that fullerene nanomaterials can significantly enhance hair growth and increase hair follicle numbers in both shaved and bald mouse models, as well as in cultured human skin sections.

This study found that adapalene-loaded solid lipid microparticles may enhance targeted drug delivery into sebum due to their similarity to sebum components, although both this formulation and a standard cream showed equivalent follicular penetration.

This study estimates the prevalence of hyperandrogenic states in late adolescent and young females, revealing that these disorders often begin at a young age.

This study found that minoxidil increased 17ß-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity by nearly 40% in dermal papilla cells from balding scalps but not in nonbalding scalp cells or dermal fibroblasts.

This article provides dermatology residents with essential information on cosmetic use to help manage skin conditions and reactions, without reporting new clinical results.

This review discusses the complexity of neuroactive steroid therapies for neuroprotection and reports no new clinical findings, suggesting potential unexpected effects in the brain compared to systemic levels.

This study reported that in rat retinas under high pressure, allopregnanolone synthesis increased and helped reduce pressure-induced damage through GABAA receptors, suggesting potential therapeutic use in glaucoma.
