This study concluded that cyproterone acetate alone produced antiandrogenic effects on the female gerbil prostate, while ethinyloestradiol alone stimulated estrogenic activity, and their combination led to prostatic lesions.

This study suggests that melanoma tumor cells exhibit intrinsic plasticity, challenging the applicability of the cancer stem cell model to this malignancy.

This review discusses recent advances in understanding Merkel cell carcinoma biology, including the development of genetically-engineered mouse models and potential therapeutic targets, but reports no new clinical results.

This study investigated genetic and epigenetic markers for prostate cancer, reporting that certain genotype combinations may influence cancer risk or protection and identifying GSTP1 promoter methylation as a strong prognostic and diagnostic marker linked to tumor aggressiveness.

This study found that maternal melatonin supplementation improved fur quality in Rex rabbit offspring by increasing hair follicle density and altering melatonin receptor gene expression in several organs.

Testosterone therapy can improve sexual function in women but long-term safety is unclear.

This review discusses the clinical implications of female androgen deficiency and evaluates treatment options, emphasizing the need for cautious use of replacement therapy in women with severe deficiency and matching symptoms.

This study reports two cases of myasthenia gravis patients with thymoma who exhibited various autoimmune symptoms including alopecia, suggesting a link between thymus-related immune dysregulation and comorbid conditions.

This case report describes a 32-year-old woman with a history of undifferentiated connective tissue disease who presented with cardiogenic shock, and endomyocardial biopsy revealed giant cell myocarditis, possibly indicating an association with her autoimmune condition.

This study found that CMV infection in a mouse model of allogeneic transplantation was associated with increased allo-reactive T cell expansion and exacerbated graft-versus-host disease, highlighting the need for effective GvHD prophylaxis and treatment.

This review outlines the various adverse reactions to biologic therapies in Allergy/Immunology, emphasizing the clinical and management challenges due to overlapping reaction phenotypes and the need for more refined diagnostic and management strategies.

This study found that mycophenolate mofetil was well tolerated and effective as a second-line treatment for autoimmune hepatitis in patients who were intolerant to azathioprine.

This case report details a patient with myasthenia gravis and a malignant thymoma whose rising liver function tests, initially thought to be related to antibiotic use, were ultimately attributed to thymoma-associated multiorgan autoimmunity.

This report describes a case of polymyositis that was resistant to steroids and immunosuppressants but showed improvement with immunoadsorption therapy.

This study analyzed clinical manifestations in 18 dermatomyositis patients, noting that all exhibited skin rash and variable symptoms like itching and muscle weakness, with treatment involving prednisolone and hydroxychloroquine.

This case study highlights the importance of early detection and management of pembrolizumab-induced hepatitis, suggesting that early steroid treatment could potentially prevent severe complications.

This study found that while no predictive factors for response to vismodegib were identified, longer treatment duration was associated with a lower risk of relapse in basal cell carcinoma patients.

This study concluded that myositis in the reported case was caused by T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia, not dermatomyositis.

This case report examines a patient with myasthenia gravis, invasive thymoma, and paraneoplastic pemphigus associated with alopecia areata, notably without the usual mucosal involvement.

In this study, the disruption of Gh/tissue transglutaminase in mice did not affect viability but reduced thymocyte viability and fibroblast adhesion, suggesting its role in cell stabilization and extracellular matrix interactions.

This study found that methylprednisolone can block IgG-induced keratinocyte detachment in an animal model of pemphigus vulgaris, potentially by increasing the synthesis and modifying adhesion molecules.

This study reported that intensive immunosuppression in multiple sclerosis patients significantly reduced relapse rates versus pre-treatment expectations, though some required ongoing treatment after tapering.

This study, using multimodal profiling in mice, found that various tissues contain unique γδ T cell subsets adapted to their environment, revealing their functional diversity, lineage relationships, and similarities to CD8+ tissue-resident memory T cells.

This study found that topical application of recombinant human MG53 protein mitigated nitrogen mustard-induced skin injuries in mice by preserving epidermal integrity and hair follicle structure.

This study analyzed clinical manifestations of dermatomyositis in 18 patients, reporting common symptoms such as skin rash, proximal muscle weakness, and elevated serum markers, with treatment typically involving prednisolone and hydroxychloroquine.

In this study, monoclonal antibody B72.3 showed selective immunoreactivity to specific types of normal canine epithelial cells, primarily those involved in mucin production.

This review outlines strategies for preventing, identifying, and managing complications related to current MS therapies and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the growing complexity in MS treatment regimens.

In this study, gamma/delta T cells were observed in skin after allergic or irritant reactions to heavy metal salts, suggesting a role in skin defense against these metals.

In this study, a TGF-β mimic molecule from Heligmosomoides polygyrus was observed to enhance wound healing in mice, with improved tissue regeneration and specific immune cell recruitment without increased scarring.

This study found that mRNA booster vaccinations for SARS-CoV-2 increased protective antibodies without worsening autoimmune disease activity in patients with pemphigus and bullous pemphigoid.
