This study found that three genetic loci, including the newly identified JMJD1C, are associated with circulating testosterone and dihydrotestosterone levels, explaining a small portion of their variance in European men.

In this study, researchers found that depleting mtDNA in mice caused skin wrinkles and hair loss but restoring mitochondrial function reversed these effects, highlighting mtDNA's significant role in skin and hair health.

This study found that in young Taiwanese women with PCOS, low sex hormone-binding globulin levels were associated with low HDL cholesterol levels, independent of insulin resistance and obesity.

This study found that the SRD5A2 A49T A variant is associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer, lower circulating 3α‐diolG levels, and a decreased risk of baldness.

This study suggests that higher PDCD4 expression may play a significant role in polycystic ovary syndrome pathogenesis through its association with obesity, insulin resistance, lipid metabolism disorders, and increased granulosa cell apoptosis.

This article reviews the complexity and diverse manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting potential genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors in its pathogenesis without presenting new clinical findings.

In this study, rheumatoid arthritis patients showed no changes in the number of circulating follicular helper T cells, but these cells had increased CD200 expression, implicating them in disease pathogenesis and suggesting CD200/CD200R as a potential therapeutic target.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome in the UK show significant differences in phenotypic and metabolic characteristics based on ethnicity, age, and obesity, influencing management strategies.
