In this study, experimentally induced weight loss in merino sheep led to a decrease in wool fiber diameter and increased expression of certain high sulfur and glycine-tyrosine proteins, potentially impacting wool quality and industry preferences.

This review found that 5α-reductase inhibitors are associated with slightly increased rates of sexual dysfunction, gynecomastia, and mood disorders, but the true significance and persistence of these effects remain unclear.

This study found that subchronic finasteride treatment in male rats altered neuroactive steroid levels and steroid receptor expression in the brain, with some changes persisting after drug withdrawal.

This study demonstrated that topical oleuropein induced hair growth in mice by activating the Wnt10b/β-catenin signaling pathway and increasing expression of several growth-related genes in skin tissue.

This review reports on the traditional and ethnopharmacological uses of Ziziphus jujuba Mills, noting its increasing global popularity for treating various ailments, but highlights that its acceptance into the European Pharmacopoeia remains unresolved due to scientific and regulatory challenges.

This study found that Er–YAG laser treatment significantly enhanced skin absorption and follicular delivery of antialopecia drugs, suggesting a potential laser-assisted approach to treat alopecia.

This study found enhanced remyelination in the corpus callosum of late pregnant rats compared to virgin and postpartum rats, suggesting a pregnancy-associated promyelinating effect mediated, in part, by the GABA A receptor system.

This review discusses the critical parameters for MALDI IMS sample preparation in skin analysis and highlights its applications in wound healing, neoplasia, and infection research, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that certain endocrine factors, influenced by smoking, birth order, and frequency of orgasms, may play an important role in the development of male breast cancer.

This review discusses the traditional uses and pharmacological properties of Hedychium spicatum, noting that while some traditional uses are supported by scientific studies, further research on its applications is needed.

This study found that arachidonic acid may promote hair growth by enhancing dermal papilla cell function and stimulating the anagen phase in C57BL/6 mice.

This study found that male liver cirrhosis patients have higher estradiol levels and lower dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, leading to hormonal imbalances favoring estradiol, but without changing sex hormone-binding globulin's binding properties.

This study reports that a sarcoptic mange outbreak, likely originating from mange-infected llamas from a governmental program, dramatically reduced vicuña and guanaco populations in San Guillermo National Park, Argentina.

This study found that the PLC2 gene plays a critical role in auxin-mediated root development in Arabidopsis, influencing root growth and PIN2 distribution.

This study found that early life stress significantly affects hedonic sensitivity to high-palatable food by altering gonadal hormones in prenatally-stressed male and female rats, with sex-dependent changes in reward-related behaviors and neurochemistry.

In this study, topical tofacitinib significantly increased hair regrowth in mice compared to minoxidil or vehicle, potentially due to elevated VEGF levels and reduced inflammation.

This study found that conditional knockout of N-WASP in keratinocytes of mice led to skin barrier defects, increased immune cell infiltration, and hyperproliferation of keratinocytes, indicating its crucial role in skin homeostasis.

This study established a mouse model for Cushing's syndrome due to a specific Crh mutation, which may help explore the effects of glucocorticoid excess and evaluate treatments for corticosteroid-induced osteoporosis.

This study reports that the completeness of DNA degradation in hair during cornification varies among individuals and affects the success rates of forensic hair DNA analysis.

In these studies, researchers found that Peruvian camelids reach mature skin follicle development early, with specific cuticular characteristics useful for distinguishing fleece types, while Bolivian llamas have a mature follicle apparatus present at birth.

In this study, the combination of SCF and ET-1 was found to significantly enhance skin pigmentation and melanin content in human skin xenografts on SCID mice compared to either treatment alone.

This review discusses the traditional uses, pharmacology, clinical applications, and toxicology of Carthami flos but reports no new clinical results, aiming to inform further research on its medicinal potential.

In this review, researchers examined the physiological benefits of Cheonggukjang, a salt-free fermented soybean paste, highlighting its various health-promoting components that may contribute to improved heart health, diabetes management, and cancer prevention, among other benefits.

This study found that tannic acid accelerated wound healing in rats by modulating inflammatory cytokines, increasing growth factors, and activating the Erk 1/2 pathway.

This study found that some synthesized heterocyclic derivatives showed promising 5α-reductase inhibitor, antiviral, and anti-tumor activities, surpassing several reference drugs in effectiveness.

This study suggests that stress may worsen Tourette syndrome symptoms in mice by increasing allopregnanolone synthesis, with findings supporting finasteride as a potential treatment to manage symptom fluctuations.

This study suggests that sinapic acid may promote hair growth in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells by activating specific signaling pathways and inducing the expression of growth factors.

This study found that spironolactone reduced fish fecundity and caused masculinization of females at certain concentrations, while having no effect on Daphnia magna reproduction, underscoring concerns for environmental exposure to vertebrates.

This review examines mesotherapy for local fat reduction, detailing its mechanisms, safety concerns, and the need for research toward FDA-approved uses, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, Polygonum multiflorum Radix promoted hair growth in mice, with oral administration being more effective, likely through FGF-7, while topical application favored SHH-related mechanisms.
