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 review discusses the potential link between long-term transdermal exposure to sex hormones from antiperspirants and increased breast and prostate cancer rates, calling for further research to confirm this theory.

This review discusses challenges in managing cutaneous drug reactions to anticonvulsants and reports no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize the complexity of discontinuing or rechallenging suspected agents.

This review discusses histologic findings in alopecia and emphasizes the importance of understanding normal follicular anatomy and cycles in transverse sections, without reporting new results.

This review discusses adverse effects associated with pegylated IFN therapy for chronic hepatitis C and highlights the potential of new antiviral drugs to reduce side effects and improve treatment adherence, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reports on the biochemical characteristics of S100A3 protein in human hair cuticle, notably finding its N-terminal methionine is acetylated and has a slightly lower isoelectric point compared to the recombinant version.

The authors reviewed the mechanisms behind Kennedy's disease, noting advances in therapeutic strategies such as androgen deprivation and gene silencing that may soon expand treatment options for this incurable neuromuscular condition.

This study found that deferiprone significantly reduced dermal fibrosis and skin thickness in mice with chronic kidney disease treated with Omniscan, suggesting iron's role in gadolinium chelate toxicity and nephrogenic systemic fibrosis.

This review explores theories on the evolution of hair from synapsid scales and glands, proposing mechanisms supported by comparative studies, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study observed that carboxytherapy significantly improved clinical and dermoscopic measures in patients with alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia compared to placebo, though some benefits regressed during follow-up.

In this study, early treatment with nitazoxanide, ivermectin, or hydroxychloroquine, combined with azithromycin, was associated with reduced hospitalizations, respiratory complications, and deaths in early-stage COVID-19 patients compared to untreated controls.

This review discusses the varied roles of Wnt7a in development, tissue homeostasis, and cancer, reporting no clinical results; the authors emphasize the need for further investigation on its roles in inflammation and fibrosis.

This review examines the long-standing use of "Dictamnus" in traditional medicine, highlighting the promising potential of D. albus and D. hispanicus as herbal drug candidates, but presents no new experimental findings.

This study found that N-acetyl-glucosamine-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers showed promise for skin lightening in healthy volunteers by reducing melanin distribution.

This study indicates that hair analyses for calcium and phosphorus are unlikely to be useful for assessing the nutritional status of horses, suggesting soil and feed analyses as more effective alternatives.

This study developed and validated a label-free assay using LC-MS to screen for S5αR inhibitors, identifying Thai herbal extracts, Impatiens balsamina L. and Curcuma longa L., as promising sources.

Finasteride boosts morphine's pain relief, stops tolerance, and reduces withdrawal in rats.

This study found no strong evidence that the human hairless gene is significantly involved in the development of androgenetic alopecia, though a minor role cannot be completely ruled out.

This study introduced a new adaptive microrhizotron for non-destructive observation of pepper root traits, finding that specific installation patterns significantly enhanced root interception probability while effectively measuring root architecture for plant research.

This study reports that hair analysis could potentially monitor metformin use in diabetic patients, suggesting a possible correlation between daily dose and concentration in dark hair but not in light hair.

Created microspheres show potential for safe and effective use in prostate artery embolization.

This study found that male 5α-reductase 2 knockout mice showed deficits in social dominance behaviors and reduced dopamine receptor binding in a brain region related to social ranking.

This review discusses the evolution of lineage-tracing strategies over the past century, emphasizing their role in identifying progenitor cells and resolving debates about cellular origins, with no new results reported.

This review discusses in vitro methods for evaluating the effects of hair care products on hair fibers, reporting no new results; the authors emphasize the importance of selecting appropriate and accurate equipment for testing.

This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to create a detailed atlas of human scalp hair follicles and found that early-stage hair graying involves matrix hair progenitor depletion linked to P53 pathway activation.

This review explores the expression of Perforin by gamma delta T cells in human skin and its role in cytotoxicity but reports no new experimental results.

This study reported that pathways related to apoptosis, cell proliferation, and WNT signaling might be key drivers of hair loss in androgenetic alopecia, guiding potential targets for therapy development.

In this study, researchers identified a new dominant mutation in Hairless mice, called Pied, resulting from a deletion in the Adam10 gene, which causes freckle-like skin pigmentation by inhibiting melanocyte expansion.

This study developed a new competitive 5alpha-reductase inhibitor with an IC(50) of 0.84 microM using a novel chemical structure.

This study reported that using photomnemonics facilitated accurate histopathologic interpretation of horizontal scalp sections in distinguishing between nonscarring and scarring alopecias by dermatopathologists and residents in a validation test.
