Oral dexamethasone may help regrow hair in adults with alopecia totalis and universalis.

This pharmacovigilance study found strong disproportionality signals suggesting an association between finasteride and Peyronie's disease-related clinical features, but the evidence does not confirm a causal link.

This study found that palmoplantar pustulosis patients exhibited oral dysbiosis, particularly among those with pustulotic arthro-osteosis, as compared to healthy controls.

This study found that suppressing allopregnanolone production in late gestation fetal sheep altered CNS activity and behavioral responses to transient asphyxia, effects mitigated by an analog co-infusion.

This study suggests that cerebrospinal fluid levels of the neurosteroids allopregnanolone and pregnanolone correlate negatively with PTSD and negative mood symptoms, with potential sex-specific differences in synthesis enzyme blocks.

In this study, analysis of over 800 Iranian patients with epidermolysis bullosa identified 15 with pathogenic PLEC variants, highlighting a correlation between variant locations and phenotypic manifestations of plectinopathies.

This study suggests that progesterone has both THP/GABAA-dependent and independent anticonvulsive effects in a hippocampal-kindled mouse model.

This study found trilostane to be an effective and generally safe treatment for improving symptoms in dogs with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism.

This review highlights the potential of peptide-based PROTACs (pPROTACs) in expanding the target range of protein degraders beyond small-molecule limitations, particularly for undruggable proteins, by utilizing advances in design, conjugation, and bioPROTAC technology.

This study suggests that both the central biosynthesis and metabolism of progesterone to 3α,5α‐THP in the ventral tegmental area are crucial for facilitating lordosis in female rats.

This study reports a rare cluster of four patients with ectodermal dysplasia, highlighting its typical dental and dermatological manifestations and the necessity of multidisciplinary management.

This study found that both finasteride and a new steroidal compound, PM-9, competitively inhibit the 5α-reductase enzyme in Penicillium crustosum broth.

This study suggests that simple absolute threshold monitoring rules for compliance using the biomarker DHT perform similarly to more complex methods in the Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that in a mouse model, the stimulation of mammary tumor growth due to progesterone is primarily caused by its metabolite, 5αP, not progesterone itself.

This study observed improvements in hair loss, acne, and BPH symptoms after addressing vitamin D and progesterone deficiencies in male patients, suggesting the potential benefits of this therapeutic approach.

This research reexamined transcriptomic data to study stem and progenitor cell proliferation in psoriasis, finding that the number of committed progenitor cells increased eight-fold in psoriatic skin without altering stem cell numbers, potentially identifying new therapeutic targets.

This study found that finasteride-induced DHT deficiency altered estrogen receptor expression in the epididymis, potentially destabilizing its function.

In this study, researchers found no evidence of hemodynamic alterations associated with erectile dysfunction in men self-diagnosed with post-finasteride syndrome following the use of finasteride for hair loss.

This study suggests that DPCP treatment can be effective and safe for severe alopecia areata in children, with maintenance therapy potentially reducing relapse rates.

In this case report, an elderly woman with erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp showed complete closure of eroded areas after treatment with prednisone and topical tacrolimus, resulting in stable scarring alopecia.

This review summarizes the roles of PDGF and its receptors in cell development and wound healing, reporting no new research findings; the authors emphasize PDGF's diverse biological functions.

The Exfoliate-Dissolve-Repair skincare approach may effectively treat keratosis pilaris and reduce the need for corticosteroids.

In this study, progesterone showed anticonvulsant effects in mice via a mechanism that is at least partially independent of its metabolism to THP, without significant psychotoxicity.

This study identified 15 Iranian patients with PLEC variants linked to various plectinopathies and highlighted a novel association between a homozygous nonsense variant in PLEC and a rare combination of disorders including EB pruriginosa, muscular dystrophy, and congenital myasthenic syndrome.

This article highlights the health risks associated with adding paraphenylenediamine to mehndi, such as contact dermatitis and asthma, and emphasizes the need for regulatory checks as its use grows among cancer patients, women with alopecia, and pregnant individuals.

This study developed and validated a precise RP-HPLC-PDA method for estimating finasteride in bulk and tablet forms, suitable for quality control use.

PGD2 stops hair growth and is higher in bald men with AGA.

This study found that nano-sized lipid particles improved the skin accumulation and retention of dexamethasone compared to a base cream, suggesting potential benefits for inflammatory skin disease treatment.
