In this review, recent studies on muscle atrophy are highlighted, revealing insights into its complex pathogenesis, therapeutic interventions such as hormone therapy, and diagnostic advancements, while emphasizing the need for personalized approaches and addressing challenges like small sample sizes and methodological diversity.

In this study, high expression of S100A4 in glioblastoma was associated with worse patient survival and promoted tumor progression by enhancing pro-tumorigenic vascular functions.

This study explored the structure and function of lipocalin prostaglandin D synthase, revealing its dual role in substrate catalysis and as a lipophilic ligand carrier, potentially informing future drug delivery design.

This review of 355 articles found that apigenin, a compound found in many plants and vegetables, is mainly researched for its anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and anti-cancer properties, with enhanced efficacy when combined with allopathic drugs.

This narrative review summarizes evidence on NAD⁺ biosynthesis and turnover, highlighting that while NAD⁺ precursors like NR and NMN consistently boost NAD⁺ levels in preclinical and human studies, clinical outcome results remain varied, indicating a need for more standardized human trials.

This case study reports that pancreatic enzyme replacement and fatty acid supplementation improved symptoms of fat malabsorption and essential fatty acid deficiency in a patient with EDS-4.

This review discusses the role of DHEA in intracrinology, highlighting its impact on breast and prostate cancer treatment and potential as a menopause therapy, but reports no new research findings.

This study reports that the differential expression patterns of three retinaldehyde dehydrogenases suggest a regulated need for retinoic acid synthesis in various organs during late mouse organogenesis.

This study found that human peptidylarginine deiminase type III is the predominant isoform in hair follicles and may modulate structural proteins during hair and hair follicle formation.

This study highlights that adverse effects from finasteride may persist in men after discontinuation, indicating a potential "post-finasteride syndrome.

This review examines testosterone's role in male health and aging but reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the need for further research on optimal testosterone levels to prevent age-related conditions.

This review discusses various aspects of hair follicle biology and highlights unresolved questions and potential new research avenues, but presents no new experimental findings.

This study found that the ethyl acetate fraction of Hibiscus rosa sinensis petals significantly reduced serum glucose and glycated hemoglobin levels in diabetic rats, showing effects comparable to the standard drug metformin.

This report describes a case where a man developed reversible myalgia and significant hyperCKemia after long-term finasteride use for male frontal baldness, with symptoms resolving upon discontinuation.

This review discusses the etiology and clinical findings of atypical hyperadrenocorticism in dogs due to sex steroid imbalance and explores various treatment options, but reports no new results.

This study found that small amounts of RNA present in horsehair roots can be used for molecular biological analysis, although detecting mRNA transcripts in the hair shaft is more challenging.

Androgens, like DHT, affect hair growth and treatments like finasteride may help.

This study on diabetic rats reported that Ziziphus spina-christi ethanol leaf extract significantly reduced blood glucose levels and improved liver and kidney function, suggesting possible benefits in managing diabetes symptoms in this animal model.

This article discusses the potential effects of exogenous testosterone, highlighting that its impact on prostate cancer progression, cardiovascular health, and behavior remains uncertain and needs further investigation.
