This study concludes that anti-androgenic chemicals causing short anogenital distance in male fetuses also induce a feminized transcriptional profile in the perineum, implicating Wnt and estrogen signaling in the process.

This study found that oral administration of finasteride to pregnant rats caused dosage-related developmental toxicities, including hypospadias and decreased anogenital distance in male offspring.

Finasteride affects male rat genitalia development, causing abnormalities during specific pregnancy days.

This case report describes a 13-year-old with DSD raised as female, exhibiting hoarseness and clitoral enlargement, with hormonal assessments not indicating common related deficiencies.

This case report describes a 10-year-old twin boy with proximal hypospadias and undescended testis, highlighting the diagnostic and treatment evaluations for associated sex development disorders.

Toxic shock syndrome is caused by a complex interaction of bacterial toxins and the immune system, and understanding this can help improve diagnosis and treatment.

This study found that prenatal exposure to finasteride in rats led to permanent changes in developmental endpoints like anogenital distance and nipple retention, which were predictive of further reproductive tract malformations.

This article reviews factors influencing hidradenitis suppurativa, its clinical diagnosis, and the diverse management approaches but presents no new clinical findings.

This review suggests that most mutations in the SRD5A2 gene show no clear genotype-phenotype correlation in 5-α-Reductase deficiency, although mutation location affects severity.

This study develops FR-1, a topical small molecule, which reduces scarring and avoids skin atrophy in a murine wound model, showing potential for treating fibrosis without the side effects of current therapies.

This study found that repeated PRP injections in patients with androgenetic alopecia may lead to hyperalgesia, where pain is felt with less stimulus after each treatment.

This review examined genetic factors in 46, XY differences/disorders of sex development and found that whole-exome sequencing is more effective than panel sequencing for molecular diagnosis. It identified regional genetic variation and emphasized next-generation sequencing's role in detecting variants related to gonadal and androgen-related genes.

This case report describes a rare instance of a Chinese Crested dog with leukocyte chimerism, normal female external genitalia, and hormonally active Sertoli cell tumors, demonstrating surgery as a curative treatment option.

The researchers identified a pathogenic variant in the SRD5A2 gene among siblings with 46,XY disorder of sexual development, highlighting the importance of comprehensive genetic testing in diagnosis and management.

In this study, genetic testing confirmed the diagnosis of Androgen insensitivity syndrome in most CAIS patients in Tunisia and identified two previously unreported mutations in the androgen receptor gene.

This review discusses 46,XY disorders of sex development caused by defects in androgen production and highlights the need for long-term care from experienced multidisciplinary teams, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This article discusses the role of testosterone in the formation of male characteristics, muscle and bone development, and its impact on skin and hair, but provides no new clinical results.

This review explores how androgens and growth hormone influence the development of terminal hairs and sebaceous glands, attributing variability in hirsutism and acne to differing genetic sensitivities to androgens, but reports no new experimental data.

This review provides an overview of recent tissue engineering and regenerative medicine developments in Asia, highlighting significant advances, representative research achievements, and discussing future directions, without presenting new research results.

Researchers successfully isolated and identified key stem cells in human hair follicles, which could help develop new skin and hair treatments.

This study reports that chemically induced short anogenital distance in male rat fetuses involved distinctive transcriptional changes, suggesting roles for estrogen and Wnt2 signaling in anogenital tissue development.

This review discusses the role of 5α-reductase enzymes in androgen action and related disorders, noting that their specific inhibitory drugs show promise for conditions like benign prostatic hypertrophy; it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the clinical and molecular history of 5-alpha reductase deficiency, highlighting its role in male sexual differentiation and potential therapeutic applications, but reports no new research outcomes.

This case report and review discuss hair-thread tourniquet syndrome in a 14-year-old autistic child, highlighting its rarity and the misconception of it being linked to abuse or socio-cultural practices.

This article discusses testosterone production in the human body and its effects on muscle mass, bone density, metabolism, and skin, but reports no new findings.

This article reviews the potential clinical use of anabolic steroids in treating muscle loss from chronic diseases and aging and highlights both the benefits and risks of these substances in sports.

This chapter reviews the role of androgen receptors in mediating the actions of androgens in specific tissues and provides no new experimental findings.

This article discusses the minimal research on hair growth physiology and highlights Dr. Masumi Inaba's contributions to understanding androgenetic alopecia, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found a significant association between AGDAC measurements and the presence of PCOS, suggesting it could be an effective clinical tool in diagnosing the condition and its phenotypes, especially when combined with AMH.

This review discusses the topical use of systemic drugs for cutaneous disorders and reports a lack of strong evidence from randomized controlled trials, highlighting the need for larger comparative effectiveness studies.
