In this study, female-to-male transsexuals treated with long-acting testosterone undecanoate experienced an increase in lean mass but no change in fat mass or bone mineral density over 24 months.

This study found that the vitamin D receptor in lampreys, which lack bones and hair, binds 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and may function to induce enzymes for detoxifying substances.

This review discusses recent research on male infertility causes and treatments, emphasizing the need for further understanding of idiopathic sperm abnormalities and molecular factors to improve patient outcomes; it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of immune privilege collapse in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata, emphasizing the potential for therapeutic manipulation of hair bulb immune privilege to offer new treatment options, and reports no new results.

This study found that maternal PPARγ is essential for preventing the production of inflammatory lipids in mouse milk, which can otherwise cause inflammation, alopecia, and growth retardation in nursing pups.

This systematic review reports that "COVID toes" and other skin manifestations can be initial signs of COVID-19, and advises immunosuppressive therapy adjustments only for infected or at-risk patients.

This article reviews current understanding and management of peripheral arterial disease and reports no new results; the authors emphasize early diagnosis and lifestyle modification for better outcomes.

This study found that UV exposure in human skin induces IL-10 production by macrophages, while Langerhans cells are depleted and their IL-12 production is downregulated.

This study indicates that reduced activity of the matriptase-prostasin proteolytic cascade is likely the cause of human autosomal recessive ichthyosis with hypotrichosis, as demonstrated using a novel mouse model.

Matriptase is crucial for skin barrier, hair growth, and may contribute to skin cancer.

This article reviews existing treatments for male-pattern hair loss, noting that while they can slow progression, they generally achieve only partial hair regrowth.

This review noted that alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease impacting hair follicles and offered insights into its complex pathogenesis involving immune responses, while highlighting ongoing research into new treatments such as Janus kinase inhibitors and other immunomodulatory drugs.

This review discusses evidence-based guidance for managing primary cicatricial alopecias but reports no new clinical results, highlighting significant gaps in knowledge and the need for more quality trials.

This chapter reviews the male accessory sex glands in rats and their responses to hormonal influences, detailing common spontaneous changes and effects of compounds, but it provides no new experimental findings.

This article outlines the potential for upregulating the vitamin D receptor in treating hair disorders, emphasizing the need for further studies to evaluate vitamin D's role in the hair cycle.

This study in the Arab population of Gaza described pseudohermaphroditism due to 17β-HSD deficiency, where individuals showed marked masculinization after puberty despite inadequate androgen proportions.

This review discusses the use of very low-calorie ketogenic diets for obesity management and provides recommendations for nutrition experts, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that dutasteride increased hair growth and restoration in men with androgenetic alopecia more effectively than finasteride and was well tolerated over 24 weeks.

This study found that mice with a mutant CDP/Cux protein lacking the homeodomain showed severely impaired growth, high postnatal mortality, and reduced fertility, highlighting CDP/Cux's role in developmental regulation.

This article discusses the management of male lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and presents randomized placebo-controlled study results on finasteride use, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses various stem cell compartments in adult murine and human epidermis, examining their expressed markers and characterization assays, and reports no new experimental results.

In this study, the researchers observed that male pattern alopecia is characterized by miniature follicles, enlarged sebaceous glands, and an increased number of mast cells, without significant abnormalities in enzyme activity.

This review article explores the potential of various mesenchymal stem cell populations derived from oral tissues, such as DPSCs and hPCy-MSCs, in bone tissue engineering and regeneration, detailing their high plasticity and clinical applications in dental procedures.

This study found that traction alopecia risk was higher in adults than children and increased further when traction was combined with chemically relaxed hair.

This study found that patients with acne vulgaris had higher serum IGF-1 levels and more intense FoxO1 and mTOR expression than controls, suggesting their role in acne pathogenesis.

This study found that 0.5 mg of dutasteride significantly improved hair growth compared to placebo and was well tolerated over six months in men with male pattern hair loss.

This review discusses the role of dietary habits and lifestyle modifications in managing polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no clinical results; the authors emphasize the need for tailored diet therapy in affected women.

This review discusses management strategies for sexual side effects of aromatase inhibitors in postmenopausal breast cancer patients and reports no original clinical findings.

This review discusses biotinidase deficiency, noting that biotin treatment from birth can prevent symptoms, but acknowledges the complexity and need for further understanding due to late-onset cases with varied clinical findings.

This study found that labeled galectin-1 binds to specific nuclear sites in human bone marrow stromal cells and keratinocytes, suggesting a role in nuclear function, although only in a small fraction of cells.
