Finasteride reduces alcohol withdrawal effects, especially in female mice.

This review discusses methods for evaluating hair growth-promoting effects of candidate substances for androgenetic alopecia, focusing on cell assays, organ cultures, and animal models, and reports no new results.

This review discusses various resveratrol derivative patents for therapeutic, nutraceutical, and cosmetic use, but reports no clinical results and notes that claims of improved efficacy lack trial evidence.

In this study, inactivating the TAF4 subunit of transcription factor TFIID in mouse epidermis disrupted gene expression linked to skin and hair function, and increased tumor risk.

In this study using genetic mouse models, researchers discovered that senescent melanocytes in nevi secrete osteopontin, which activates hair stem cells, enhancing hair growth; this process is mirrored in human hairy nevi, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for regenerative disorders.

This study found that ancient and modern Chinese goats share close genetic ties, originating from the Fertile Crescent, with genetic divergence influenced by China's climatic divisions.

This study found that acne keloidalis nuchae was associated with pseudofolliculitis barbae, chronic scalp folliculitis, and aspects of the metabolic syndrome, particularly hypertension, in the examined population.

This study found that Scutellaria baicalensis extract and its main component baicalin inhibited androgen activation signaling and promoted proliferation of human dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential use in treating androgen-associated disorders.

This study found that altering neonatal neurosteroid levels affected anxiety and aversive learning in adult rats, possibly through changes in hippocampal GABAergic functions.

This study found that selecting human hair follicles at a defined anagen stage based on their in vivo growth rate leads to more consistent results in organ culture, with minoxidil significantly enhancing hair growth in these follicles.

In this review, researchers examined the physiological benefits of Cheonggukjang, a salt-free fermented soybean paste, highlighting its various health-promoting components that may contribute to improved heart health, diabetes management, and cancer prevention, among other benefits.

This study developed an in vitro system to analyze human skin progenitor cells' ability to form hair peg-like structures, providing insights for engineering hair follicle organoids.

This study demonstrated that AIRE-deficient rats exhibit key symptoms of APECED, making them a relevant model for exploring potential treatments.

This article introduces a new grading system called the FPHL Severity Index to better identify and monitor early stages of female pattern hair loss using clinical criteria.

In this study, spironolactone was reported to stabilize or improve female pattern hair loss in 74.3% of treated women, especially those with signs of hyperandrogenism.

This study found that progesterone significantly delayed epileptogenesis development in a mouse model, and its effects were inhibited by finasteride, highlighting the potential role of neurosteroids in modifying epilepsy progression.

This study found that l-carnitine stimulated hair growth in vitro by promoting proliferation and reducing apoptosis in human scalp hair follicles, suggesting potential as a treatment for hair loss.

This article reviews Cronkhite-Canada syndrome as a distinct condition from Peutz-Jeghers syndrome and familial polyposis, with cases showing gastrointestinal polyposis, skin, hair, nail abnormalities, and hypoproteinemia.

This review discusses the structure and function of steroid nuclear receptors, particularly focusing on androgen receptor dysregulation in prostate cancer and androgen insensitivity syndromes, without reporting new experimental results.

This study reviewed the current state of intralesional therapy for keratoacanthoma, finding that while methotrexate, 5-fluorouracil, and interferon alpha are common agents, guidelines are still needed, and histopathological confirmation is advised to prevent misdiagnosis with squamous cell carcinoma.

This review discusses potential associations between Helicobacter pylori infection and various skin diseases but reports no new clinical findings; more research is needed to clarify these links.

Sfrp2 increases during hair follicle catagen phase and slows keratinocyte growth.

This study found that biostimulant application in lettuce cultivation led to significant yield and phytochemical enhancements, with effects varying between green and red cultivars depending on the treatment method used.

In this study, researchers found that ligand homodimerization controls the receptor binding specificity of the FGF9 subfamily, preventing off-target activation of FGFR "b" isoforms.

Genetic research has advanced our understanding of skin diseases, but complex conditions require an integrative approach for deeper insight.

This animal study found that dermal papilla cells in hair follicles of chimeric mice can originate from various fibroblasts in the skin, challenging assumptions about their specific lineage.

This study found that dermal papilla cells cultured in vitro can promote hair follicle regeneration and maintain hair growth, with stronger ET-1 and SCF expression enhancing this regenerative ability.

This study found that finasteride (1 mg/day) appeared to reverse the shortening of the hair cycle in androgen sensitive sites but did not convert miniaturized hair into terminal hair.

This study found that 2% ketoconazole solution stimulated hair growth significantly in a mouse model, suggesting potential benefits for male pattern hair loss.

This review discusses AR-modulating agents developed between 2012 and 2018, highlighting challenges with ligand-binding domain antagonists and proposing nonconventional approaches targeting other domains as promising strategies.
