This study suggests that botanical 5AR inhibitors like Serenoa repens and β-sitosterol may improve symptoms of androgenetic alopecia, with 60% of treated subjects showing improvement compared to placebo.

This study found that 60% of men with mild to moderate androgenetic alopecia showed improvement after treatment with botanically derived 5AR inhibitors, suggesting these compounds may be effective, though larger trials are needed.

This study found that liposterolic extracts of Serenoa repens enhanced hair regeneration and repair in DHT-induced hair loss mouse models, suggesting potential effects comparable to finasteride.

This study found that a composition including Serenoa repens extract and anti-inflammatory agents effectively suppressed inflammation-related gene expression in a keratinocyte model, suggesting a potential dual strategy for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This review concludes that global literature supports the lipidosterolic extract of Serenoa repens as efficacious and safe for treating lower urinary tract symptoms, with some studies showing equivalence to common pharmacologic agents.

This review discusses the efficacy of the lipidosterolic extract of Serenoa repens for treating lower urinary tract symptoms and reports no new clinical results; the authors propose further examination of the existing literature and guidelines.

This review concludes that the global literature supports the efficacy and safety of lipidosterolic extract of Serenoa repens in treating lower urinary tract symptoms, comparable to alpha-blockers and 5α-reductase inhibitors.

In this study, researchers differentiated human induced pluripotent stem cells into dermal papilla-like cells and observed gene expression dynamics during five stages of dermal differentiation, demonstrating the potential of these cells to interact with epidermal cells in functional assays.

In castrated rats, this study found that triterpenoids from Ganoderma lucidum inhibited both types of 5α-reductase and reduced prostate growth linked to testosterone but not dihydrotestosterone.

This study reviews existing literature on botanicals for androgenetic alopecia, noting a growing interest and emphasizing research on hair growth stimulants, especially involving green tea and other specific botanicals.

This study suggests that inhibitors of steroidogenic enzymes may have therapeutic potential for certain behavioral disorders linked to dopaminergic hyperfunction, despite concerns about their endocrine impacts.

In laboratory settings, this study suggests that Serenoa repens and N-acetyl glucosamine with milk proteins may promote hair follicle vascularization through specific cellular interactions and actions.

This study found that a topical herbal solution significantly increased hair diameter and density in men with androgenetic alopecia compared to minoxidil after 36 weeks of treatment.

This study reported unexpected positive results in two males with androgenetic alopecia using a cyclodextrin-enabled, natural-based formula over 270 days, showing marked hair thickening and reduced scalp hair loss.

This review evaluates laboratory models used in androgenetic alopecia research but reports no new findings, emphasizing the potential of human-derived 3-D models for future studies.

This randomized, placebo-controlled trial reported that USPlus PRO saw palmetto extract significantly improved lower urinary tract symptoms, including voiding, incomplete emptying, and weak stream, as well as sexual function in males over 12 weeks, while maintaining a favorable safety profile.

In this study, researchers examined a document submitted by Jakeline Ortega related to Joandele Cristina da Silva Barcelos, but results or specific findings are not reported in the abstract.

This review concludes that autologous split-thickness skin grafting remains the gold standard for safety and efficacy in treating chronic leg ulcers, with greater success in venous ulcers.

This review discusses the critical parameters for MALDI IMS sample preparation in skin analysis and highlights its applications in wound healing, neoplasia, and infection research, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the selective PPARγ modulator GMG-43AC may inhibit unwanted hair growth by inducing catagen phase while preserving hair follicle epithelial progenitor cells, suggesting potential in anti-hirsutism therapy.

In this study, researchers at Go Pet Care Animal Clinic reported a varying prevalence of dermatophytosis in domestic cats from 2020 to 2022, highest in young and male Persian cats, with common lesions including alopecia mainly in the ear and back regions.

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.

This study found that increasing commensal bacterial load on the skin enhances wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis in mice, mediated through IL1R-MyD88 signaling pathways.

This case report highlights the importance of trans-esophageal echocardiography in distinguishing Libman-Sacks endocarditis from infective endocarditis in systemic lupus erythematosus patients, guiding appropriate treatment for associated cerebrovascular disease.

This study concluded that erosive lichen sclerosus is a distinct subtype marked by red patches on hairless skin, while ulcerated lichen sclerosus typically results from trauma in uncontrolled dermatosis.

This study observed that administering 1000 mg/kg of LSFP significantly reduced serum FSH and LH levels and testicular index in male Wistar rats, while lower doses showed no such effect.

This case report highlights a 21-year-old woman with seizures, mental retardation, spastic diplegia, and ichthyosis consistent with Sjogren-Larsson syndrome, and emphasizes the importance of differential diagnosis when additional symptoms are present.

This study observed that lupus erythematosus-specific skin lesions were more common than nonspecific ones and can serve as diagnostic clues, while nonspecific lesions were more often linked to systemic disease.

This study describes the development of the EUSCLE Core Set Questionnaire for cutaneous lupus erythematosus, designed to standardize data collection, facilitate epidemiological analysis, and guide diagnostic and therapeutic strategies across European centers.

This study reports that systemic lupus erythematosus patients with Evans syndrome often exhibited photosensitivity, hypocomplementemia, and elevated serum IgG, while lupus nephritis was less common, suggesting distinct clinical features.
