Mitoxantrone with a corticosteroid helps manage symptoms for some advanced prostate cancer patients but doesn't extend life.

This review summarizes the clinical, trichoscopic, and histopathological features of alopecia types associated with cutaneous and systemic lupus erythematosus and explores their links to disease activity, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study confirmed that 5% topical minoxidil is more effective than 1% in increasing hair density in Japanese men with androgenetic alopecia, with no significant difference in adverse event rates.

This study observed that dental erosion was common among adolescents in Pasto, Colombia, with dietary habits like frequent juice consumption and snacking on artificially flavored lemon products linked to increased risk.

This study found that C-reactive protein may enhance monocyte adhesion to endothelial cells through NOX-mediated oxidative stress, suggesting a potential mechanism for atherogenesis.

This study found that women with hyperandrogenic amenorrhea do not show reduced bone mineral density compared to controls, indicating they may be protected from osteopenia.

This study found that HPV-150 and HPV-151 are rare genotypes with a preference for skin tissue, detected in some cases of skin lesions with generally low viral loads.

This study identified 617 differentially expressed genes in cashmere goat hair follicles, which are involved in key biological processes and provide insights into hair follicle development.

This review discusses the role of various genetic regulators in maintaining human mesenchymal stem cell stemness and highlights strategies for ex-vivo expansion, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study evaluated androgen-induced hair loss and anagen induction mouse models, finding that Minoxidil and Pyrilutamide significantly promoted hair growth by decreasing androgen receptor protein levels and enhancing the Wnt/β-Catenin signaling pathway, supporting their use in studying novel treatments for androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses Ayurvedic approaches to premature greying of hair, focusing on detoxifying therapies like panchakarma and various rejuvenative treatments, but presents no new empirical findings.

This study found that in men with androgenetic alopecia, elevated triglycerides were the only factor consistently associated with the condition, suggesting a potential link between AGA and lipid metabolism, although other hormonal, metabolic, and sleep factors were not significantly different after propensity score matching.

This study found that hypoxia-conditioned mesenchymal stem cell exosomes increased GM-CSF and decreased IL-1 expression in a dose-dependent manner in a murine model, suggesting potential for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study developed a hydrogel microneedle system combining ginseng-derived exosomes and biomimetic nanoparticles to address oxidative stress, inflammation, and melanocyte deficiency in vitiligo, showing significant repigmentation in mice within 3 weeks by enhancing melanocyte protection and keratinocyte proliferation.

In this case report, a 62-year-old woman with suspected discoid lupus erythematosus experienced worsening skin and hair symptoms despite treatment with topical corticosteroids, immunomodulatory therapy, and hydroxychloroquine, leading to her referral to a tertiary dermatology center.

In this quasi-experimental study, a 12-week intermittent fasting regimen significantly improved insulin sensitivity and reduced HbA1c levels in overweight South Asian adults with prediabetes, suggesting a practical lifestyle strategy to potentially delay the onset of type 2 diabetes.

This study found that long-term use of dutasteride in men taking it for androgenetic alopecia may lead to persistent decreases in semen volume and sperm motility, potentially impacting fertility, with significant impairment observed after 17.8 to 20.3 months of treatment.

In this study, RNA integrity in horse hair follicles stored at various conditions in RNAlater® was maintained, showing that storing them at cool or room temperature for up to a week does not compromise RNA quality or concentration.

This study found that gene therapy using a mouse cytomegalovirus vector with telomerase reverse transcriptase or follistatin significantly extended lifespan and improved health markers in mice, without adverse effects.

Men with early balding should be checked for metabolic syndrome, as there's a link between the two.

This study found no difference in lipid levels between men with and without androgenetic alopecia, suggesting the increased heart disease risk associated with this condition does not solely depend on cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

In this study, researchers found that synchronization between expanding epithelial cells and background mesenchymal cells in the mouse hair cycle may be maintained by inhibitory regulation, with potential mediators of this regulation identified.

This study assessed minoxidil solubility in propylene glycol and water mixtures, comparing cosolvency models and examining thermodynamic properties, without reporting new clinical results.

The study characterized the transcriptional changes in porcine SKP cells transitioning to fibroblast-like cells, indicating potential roles for specific signaling pathways in this cell fate transition.

This study found that testosterone administration reduced the expression of uterine receptivity molecules in ovariectomized rats, which may negatively affect early pregnancy establishment and female fertility.

This study reported that the PTGER2 gene is strongly expressed in cashmere goat skin and its expression tends to decrease from the anagen to telogen stages of the hair follicle cycle.

This study found that lupus discoid lesions on the scalp are more common in females and are associated with a higher incidence of other autoimmune diseases compared to lesions in other areas.

In this study, researchers found that substance P triggered premature catagen development and immune changes in human scalp hair follicles, providing a possible biological link between stress and hair loss conditions like telogen effluvium and alopecia areata.

This study identified a new cis-regulatory element in the mouse Hr gene that influences its expression in skin and brain cells, highlighting a complex molecular network involved in hair follicle formation.

This article outlines the rationale and design of the Rotterdam Study, summarizes its major findings, and updates its objectives and methods; it reports no new research results.
