research The Effect of Alfacalcidiol and Metformin on Phenotype Manifestations in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome – A Preliminary Study
Alfacalcidiol and metformin together lowered testosterone in women with PCOS, but did not significantly improve acne, hair growth, or pregnancy rates.
research Mouse Hair Cycle Expression Dynamics Modeled as Coupled Mesenchymal and Epithelial Oscillators
The study concluded that hair growth in mice is regulated by a stable interaction between skin cell types, and disrupting this can cause hair loss.

research Comparing Classic and Newer Phenotypes in Greek PCOS Women: The Prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome and Their Association with Insulin Resistance
Greek women with classic PCOS are more likely to have metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance than those with newer PCOS types.
research Three Cases of Androgen-Dependent Disease Associated with Myotonic Dystrophy
Women with myotonic dystrophy might get diseases related to male hormones because their body tissues are extra sensitive to these hormones.
research Disruption of Anthrax Toxin Receptor 1 in Pigs Leads to a Rare Disease Phenotype and Protection from Senecavirus A Infection
Removing anthrax toxin receptor 1 in pigs prevents Senecavirus A infection and causes a rare disease similar to GAPO syndrome.
research Disease Causing Homozygous Variants in the Human Hairless Gene
New and known mutations in the hairless gene cause a hair loss condition called Atrichia with papular lesions.
research The Use of High-Density SNP Array to Map Homozygosity in Consanguineous Families to Efficiently Identify Candidate Genes: Application to Woodhouse-Sakati Syndrome
Using SNP array testing helped quickly find the gene causing Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome in two related individuals.
research Ratio of Ovarian Stroma and Total Ovarian Area by Ultrasound in Prediction of Hyperandrogenemia in Reproductive-Aged Thai Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Diagnostic Test
Ultrasound measurement of the ovarian stroma to total area ratio is not a reliable single predictor of high male hormone levels in Thai women with PCOS, but works better when combined with clinical signs.
research Hair Follicle Miniaturization in a Woolly Hair Nevus
The boy with woolly hair nevus had thinner hair and abnormal hair follicles, which improved with treatment but worsened when treatment stopped.
research Association of Topical Minoxidil With Autosomal Recessive Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis Caused by LIPH Pathogenic Variants
Minoxidil solution applied twice daily improved hair growth in patients with Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis due to LIPH gene issues, with mild side effects.
