This study identified several herbs, including Ganoderma lucidum and Urtica dioica, that showed promising 5α-reductase inhibitory activity suggesting potential use in managing androgenic disorders.

This review highlights the challenges in screening for steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors and discusses significant variability in the effectiveness of finasteride and dutasteride, calling for standardized testing methods to develop safer, more specific inhibitors from herbal preparations.

This study found that Si extract, cryptomeridiol, and SiAgNPs have the ability to induce cell death and prevent cell growth in HepG2 liver cancer cells, suggesting cryptomeridiol's potential as a phytochemical component in developing new therapies for hepatocellular carcinoma using nanotechnology in vitro.

This review discusses the phytochemistry and pharmacological properties of Martynia annua but reports no new findings; it suggests the plant's various phytoconstituents offer scope for future research.

This study enumerates the traditional uses of Begonia malabarica by tribes in Tamil Nadu, where it is reported to be used for treating a variety of ailments, with further research planned to evaluate its biological potential.

This study revealed that 44.48% of people in Ghaziabad are familiar with common herbal medicines, with lower awareness of lesser-known options, prompting the creation of an educational package.

This review examines the role of oxidative stress in male hypogonadism associated with noncommunicable chronic diseases and discusses various management strategies, but it presents no new clinical findings.

This review highlights the promising potential of Semecarpus anacardium Linn. in promoting hair growth due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties but emphasizes the need for further human clinical trials and safe formulation practices due to its associated toxicity in raw form.

This study reported that 39.7% of Amargosa voles had mite-associated lesions, which may severely impact their health and fitness.

This study provides genomic and epigenomic insights into the white wax scale insect, highlighting high methylation levels and differential hormone profiles linked to its sexual dimorphism and developmental differences.

This case report details the dermoscopic features of bilateral cutaneous larva migrans in an adult male, noting similarities with lymphangioma circumscriptum but highlights that typical dermoscopy magnification may be insufficient for diagnosis.

This study describes unique anatomical characteristics of the skin and hair structures in the silver marmoset, including features such as thin epidermis, specialized nerve end-organs, and distinctive gland compositions.

This article discusses the structure and protective function of pangolin scales, emphasizing their composition of α-keratins and β-keratins, and highlights evolutionary keratin diversification in tetrapods; it reports no new empirical findings.

This study suggests that reptilian claws grow differently from mammalian claws, with continuous epidermal growth rather than a proximal matrix zone for cell proliferation.

This study describes a newly identified mite species, Demodex zalophi, found on captive sea lions and highlights its unique traits, including being the first of its kind described in marine mammals.

In this study, mixed lice infestations and their associated skin changes were observed in the Egyptian lesser blind mole rat, marking the first report of such findings in this species.

In this study, the researchers found that female Pieris brassicae butterflies have more "B-type" chemoreceptory hairs on their forelegs, which may be involved in selecting oviposition sites through detecting mustard oil glucosides.

This study found that ethanol extracts from Musa paradisiaca cv. Puttabale corms have significant anthelmintic activity against Pheretima posthuma, outperforming the standard drug piperazine citrate in terms of paralysis and death times.

This study observed that during male silkmoth development, trichogen cells in olfactory sensilla undergo significant membrane recycling, contributing to sensillum structure formation in a precisely timed series of stages.

This study found that inhibiting 5α-reductase in molluscs provokes a specific shell morphology, suggesting gastropods might have unique 5α-reductase substrates absent in vertebrates.

This study found that Brandt's hedgehog has the thickest skin on its back and the thinnest on the cloacal region, with sebaceous and sweat glands primarily located in the nostril area.

This study used transcriptome analysis to explore the genetic mechanisms behind the development and seasonal variation of nuptial pads in R. chensinensis, identifying key genes and processes that suggest the pads' development involves complex regulatory pathways, particularly those related to cell cycle and hormone synthesis.

In this study, researchers found that exosomes derived from Pinctada martensii mucus can effectively inhibit melanin production in melanoma cells and zebrafish without adverse effects, potentially offering a promising therapeutic strategy for treating pigmentary disorders by modulating the NF-κB signaling pathway.

This case report describes a diagnosis of cutaneous pilus migrans in a 19-month-old girl, highlighting its rarity and distinction from larva migrans, and confirming it through microscopic examination.

Mouse tail skin has different keratinization near hair follicles and scales.

This research observed that, in domestic cats like Maine Coon and Rex breeds, a "piebald" coat color pattern is likely influenced by the Silver locus, although the specific mutations involved are yet to be published.

This study described the structure of the hair brush on male Endoclita vietnamensis moths' legs, identifying characteristics such as specialized scales and a pheromone gland, which could facilitate the future development of pheromone-based pest control methods for eucalyptus pests in China.

This study observed that tributyltin pollution induces imposex, reduces reproductive success, and leads to population decline in Ocinebrina aciculata, highlighting its sensitivity compared to other prosobranch species.

In this study, researchers observed that the epidermal specializations on the tail scales of Lygodactylus lizards, including sensory organs and specific secretory glands, are fully restored with similar structure and distribution on regenerated tails.
