This review discusses theories and treatments for body image disturbances and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that younger, unmarried individuals under 40, especially women, experienced significant anxiety and depression due to androgenetic alopecia, impacting their psychological well-being and self-perception.

This review found that hyperandrogenism in premenopausal women is linked to a higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and diseases regardless of obesity, while in postmenopausal women, these risks depend on obesity.

This study found that specific ATP-competitive TOR inhibitors (asTORis) decrease root growth in Arabidopsis thaliana in a dose-dependent manner, similar to their effects on mammalian cells.

This study explains finasteride's high potency and specificity as a mechanism-based inhibitor for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia by detailing its interaction with human type 2 steroid 5α-reductase.

This study found that human hair follicles express ATP-sensitive potassium channels, suggesting that minoxidil acts on these channels and that drugs targeting them may treat hair disorders.

This study identified WNT10A as crucial for adult epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation, suggesting β-catenin pathway activation may help address regenerative defects in WNT10A mutation patients.

This study applied semantic text-mining to identify phenotypes linked to over 6,000 diseases, demonstrating that these phenotypes can accurately identify known disease-associated genes, creating a human disease network based on phenotypic similarity.

This review discusses the use of mushrooms and their bioactive compounds in cosmeceuticals and nutricosmetics and reports no new clinical findings, highlighting potential areas for future research and development.

This review discusses the incidence, reversibility, and impact of chemotherapy-induced alopecia and concludes that scalp cooling is the most effective prevention method in most cases, though some questions remain.

This study found that light stimulation of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells in the eyes can activate hair follicle stem cells through a neural circuit involving the sympathetic nervous system.

This study found that disrupting inflammasome signaling by eliminating caspase-1 and -11 in mice reduced skin inflammation and delayed the onset of disease, highlighting their role in skin disease pathogenesis.

This study found that bimatoprost stimulated hair growth in both human scalp follicle cultures and mouse pelage in vivo, suggesting it might offer a promising treatment for scalp alopecias.

This study found that hair follicle and interfollicular epidermis stem cells contribute differently to skin regeneration, with their persistence influenced by factors like spatial constraints and competition moderated by Notch suppression.

This study found that temperature affects the influence of daylength on prolactin secretion and hair growth in dairy goats, without significant involvement of melatonin.

This study identified acne, superficial mycoses, pigmentation disorders, and actinic keratosis as the most common dermatologic diagnoses in Brazil, emphasizing the importance of skin cancer and leprosy in public health.

This study found that transient mtDNA double strand breaks in mice accelerated aging in certain tissues through increased reactive oxygen species, independent of p21/p53 pathway mediation.

This review discusses post-SSRI sexual dysfunction and post-finasteride syndrome, highlighting unknowns about their true incidence and underlying causes, and reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that iontophoresis significantly improved the delivery of minoxidil sulfate to hair follicles compared to passive methods, suggesting potential benefits for alopecia treatment.

This study found that intermediate hair follicles are morphologically distinct from terminal follicles and offer a novel model for developing new alopecia therapies despite being technically more challenging to study.

Hair fibers interact through classical forces, which are influenced by treatments and products, important for hair care and other applications.

This study found that local androgen biosynthesis and metabolism in human sebaceous glands play a crucial role in sebum synthesis and secretion.

In this study, researchers observed that African spiny mice, Acomys cahirinus, are capable of regenerating skeletal muscle in dermal wound sites, unlike common mice, Mus musculus.

This study found that minoxidil inhibited prostacyclin production in various endothelial and smooth muscle cells in culture without affecting the synthesis of other cyclooxygenase products.

This study observed significant inter- and intra-individual variability in serum testosterone levels among women treated with subcutaneous testosterone implants, suggesting that therapy should be guided by clinical response rather than single serum measurements.

This study found that the pharmacological inhibition of 5-α reductases with finasteride and dutasteride can reduce neurosteroid synthesis in glioblastoma-derived cell lines, potentially impacting GBM survival.

This study established an androgen-responsive human organ culture model using hair follicles, demonstrating that women's intermediate facial follicles grow more hair in response to men's higher androgen levels.

This study demonstrated that a new topical treatment using ketotifen-loaded microneedles, designed for prolonged release, significantly reduced inflammatory markers in an animal model of allergic conjunctivitis, suggesting enhanced therapeutic delivery and sustained ocular benefits.

This study found that exposure to finasteride impaired spermatogenesis in male Xenopus laevis by affecting sex-specific feedback mechanisms in the hypothalamus–pituitary–gonad axis.

This study found that finasteride- and dutasteride-loaded iron oxide nanoparticles improved drug penetration in the skin, suggesting they may be promising for topical alopecia therapies.
