This study found that women with PCOS have higher activity of the enzyme 5alpha-reductase, which may contribute to their elevated androgen levels.

This study observed that erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp in elderly patients was effectively treated with high-potency topical steroids, with plasma and lymphocyte dermal infiltrates helping to confirm diagnosis.

This study suggests that inhibitors of steroidogenic enzymes may have therapeutic potential for certain behavioral disorders linked to dopaminergic hyperfunction, despite concerns about their endocrine impacts.

This study found that allopregnanolone has a bimodal effect on prolactin secretion in sheep, stimulating PRL mRNA expression but inhibiting hormone release under stress and pregnancy conditions.

DHEA therapy improved pubic hair growth and psychological well-being in young females with adrenal insufficiency.

A woman got a scalp condition from using latanoprost, but it improved after stopping the drug and starting other treatments.

This study suggests that dermal stem/progenitor cells can be enriched by intracellular granularity and display high proliferation and differentiation potential in vitro, distinguishing them from other fibroblasts and progenitors.

This study developed and characterized new mouse models of Pemphigus that mimic different forms of the disease, but treatment with Methyl-Prednisolone showed only partial effectiveness.

This case report details a 21-year-old woman with dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis, presenting with generalized reticulate hyperpigmentation, diffuse noncicatricial alopecia, onychodystrophy, palmoplantar keratoderma, and poorly developed dermatoglyphics.

This article reviews the contraceptive agent Depo-Provera, discussing its effectiveness, potential side effects, and safety concerns, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of neuro(active)steroids, particularly those in the 5α reductase pathway, in modulating dopamine signaling and their impact on neuropsychiatric disorders characterized by dopamine imbalances, including addiction, schizophrenia, and Parkinson's Disease.

This study analyzed patients with X-linked dominant chondrodysplasia punctata and identified novel mutations in the emopamil-binding protein gene, highlighting the need for genetic testing alongside biochemical analysis for accurate diagnosis.

This study observed that PCE-DP may improve skin pigmentation by increasing epidermal turnover and inhibiting melanin uptake and inflammation in human epidermal keratinocytes.

This study found that PGD2 inhibits hair follicle regeneration in mice through the Gpr44 receptor, suggesting that blocking PGD2 or Gpr44 may enhance skin regeneration after wounds.

In this study, withdrawal from progesterone and treatment with finasteride were associated with increased signs of depression-like behavior in female mice, suggesting decreased allopregnanolone levels may play a role.

This study found that using a PEG-400/oleic acid mixture as an optical clearing agent enhanced the detection depth of particles in skin without causing dehydration, based on tests in rats and further testing in vivo.

This article describes erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp, emphasizing its chronic nature, potential complications, and the lack of specific diagnostic findings, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that canine dermal papilla cells and fibroblasts metabolize androgens differently than human hair follicle cells, indicating species-specific differences in androgen metabolism.

This policy brief highlights that post-drug syndromes remain under-recognized in pharmacovigilance, leading to inadequate risk assessments and patient care. It identifies systemic failures in current frameworks and recommends actions to improve long-term drug safety monitoring and education, affecting public health outcomes significantly.

The conference highlighted new treatments and research in pediatric skin conditions, emphasizing collaboration and innovation.

This study found that neuroactive steroids, through their interaction with the sigma1 receptor, influence the acquisition of cocaine's rewarding effects in mice, suggesting a role in drug addiction vulnerability.

In this study, researchers observed that testicular 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency in an inbred Arab population in Israel leads to genital ambiguity at birth and progressive virilization after puberty.

This study found that papillary dermal fibroblast progenitors in newborn mouse skin can be isolated and cultured to generate male germline cell precursors, demonstrating their potential through differentiation into cells with meiotic capability.

This article reviews the potential uses of PDRN in regenerative and aesthetic medicine, noting promising results in various treatments but highlighting the need for further long-term studies to confirm their safety and effectiveness.

This study suggests that Ptprq in the hair bundles may exist as multiple isoforms that are differentially expressed throughout development and affect the organization of stereocilia in the chick inner ear.

This study found that epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors can induce erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp, typically appearing sooner and affecting the scalp more extensively compared to other triggers.

This review discusses how neurosteroids acting on GABAA receptors may influence behavior and explores the potential for developing selective modulators for treating psychiatric disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that serum DHEA levels increase earlier and are higher in girls compared to boys through various stages of puberty, reflecting their earlier pubertal development.

This case study reported that two patients treated for androgenetic alopecia with Regaine® solution developed allergic contact dermatitis due to propylene glycol, highlighting the importance of testing the vehicle in patch tests.

This study evaluated the use of oral DHEA for treating atrichia pubis and psychological distress in young females with central adrenal insufficiency but reports no new results.
