This review discusses recent molecular biology advances in the human phenol sulfotransferase gene family and reports no new results; the authors highlight its relevance for studies of endogenous and xenobiotic metabolism.

This study investigated a potential link between male pattern baldness and Pityrosporum group fungal contamination but found no significant statistical association.

This commentary reviews the post-Finasteride syndrome and argues that while the condition's validity is debated, comprehensive guidelines are needed to address related risks and treatment options; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that novel MPC inhibitor analogues with specific chemical modifications promoted significant hair growth in shaved mice when applied topically.

This study found that mycophenolate mofetil can enhance skin pigmentation in vitiligo models by activating the WNT signaling pathway and increasing melanin-related gene expression.

This study concluded that an endogenous circannual rhythm of prolactin secretion in mouflon influences their seasonal hair growth and moulting cycle, which varies under different photoperiodic and melatonin treatments.

Some men experience persistent sexual, neurological, and psychological symptoms after stopping finasteride, but evidence of permanent damage is inconclusive.

This study found that the newly developed microarray patches for intradermal delivery of finasteride showed high drug content and significantly improved skin deposition compared to existing methods.

This study found that 5% minoxidil topical foam used once daily for 24 weeks was well tolerated and significantly improved hair regrowth and scalp coverage in women with female pattern hair loss compared to vehicle foam.

This case report describes frontal fibrosing alopecia in a woman with primary biliary cirrhosis and polymyalgia rheumatica, suggesting a possible autoimmune link to this form of hair loss.

This article summarizes Dr. Alan Jacobs's presentation at the 2016 ISHRS World Congress but reports no new research findings.

This study reported that mSKPs and DMSCs share similarities in biological characteristics but exhibit distinct transcriptome profiles, with mSKPs being more immune-related and DMSCs more associated with differentiation and disease pathways.

Scalp micropigmentation is a process where tiny dots of pigment are tattooed onto the scalp to create the appearance of a shaved head or fuller hair.

This review discusses the evidence for post-finasteride syndrome as a condition potentially induced by finasteride and dutasteride, associating them with sexual dysfunction, depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation in a subset of men, and reports no new clinical results.

This study details a method for assessing the risk of modifications to pharmaceutical frame formulations by assigning a risk priority number using Failure Modes Effects Analysis, which estimates the severity and probability of changes impacting the formulation.

This study aimed to identify characteristics of patients who fail to void during pressure-flow studies, which limits the determination of the cause behind their lower urinary tract symptoms.

Finasteride for hair loss may cause long-lasting sexual side effects in young males.

In this study, researchers isolated five new compounds from Monascus purpureus wmd2424 and found that four exhibited mild antifungal activity against several fungi.

The researchers found that melatonin implantation in Cashmere goats influenced PDGFA gene expression and hair growth cycles, indicating it may control hair phase transformation from growth to catagen and telogen.

In this study, platelet-rich fibrin matrix combined with follicular unit transplantation increased hair follicle numbers in men with androgenetic alopecia on the treated side of the scalp after six months.

This study identified mefloquine as a potent inducer of lethal ER stress that effectively eliminated vemurafenib-resistant and sensitive melanoma cells, suggesting its potential for repurposing as a melanoma treatment.

This study describes the diverse histopathological patterns and clinical features observed in patients with folliculotropic mycosis fungoides, emphasizing the importance of accurate recognition to avoid diagnostic errors.

This review discusses concerns about persistent side effects of finasteride, such as sexual dysfunction and suicidal ideation, urging the medical community to recognize and address these issues.

This review discusses the occurrence of persistent sexual, physical, neurological, and psychiatric side effects known as post-finasteride syndrome after 5x-reductase inhibitor treatment, and emphasizes the importance of evaluating these risks for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia or androgenic alopecia.

This case report describes a 26-year-old man who experienced persistent sexual dysfunction and other symptoms for 19 months after stopping finasteride for androgenetic alopecia. The authors highlight post-finasteride syndrome's impact on quality of life and stress the need for careful risk-benefit assessment before prescribing.

This study used atomic force microscopy to identify significant morphological differences in hair from patients with lichen planopilaris compared to healthy controls, noting more scratches, uneven edges, and pitted scales in affected hair, which may aid future research on the condition.

This study demonstrated that a finasteride-loaded proniosome significantly enhanced transfollicular delivery and hair growth in mice without causing skin irritation, with effects comparable to a 2% minoxidil solution.

This study found that calprotectin induces complex multi-metal starvation responses in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, affecting its metal homeostasis pathways and resistance to polymyxin B.

This study observed that POMP is strongly expressed in the root sheath hair follicles of Liaoning Cashmere goats and its expression can be regulated by certain factors, which may influence cashmere growth.

This review discusses the complex nature of frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting it is a misnomer and possibly a subset of lichen planopilaris, but reports no new clinical results.
