This study found that laminin-511 is crucial for hair morphogenesis in mice, as it influences primary cilia formation and dermal papilla maintenance through noggin and sonic hedgehog signaling.

This study found that the nanostructured lipid carrier gel containing minoxidil showed good consistency and a prolonged drug release in vitro, suggesting potential for treating alopecia.

This study indicates that reduced activity of the matriptase-prostasin proteolytic cascade is likely the cause of human autosomal recessive ichthyosis with hypotrichosis, as demonstrated using a novel mouse model.

This study found that parents of women with PCOS have a higher prevalence of insulin resistance and Type II diabetes than parents of healthy women.

This study identified genetic mutations linked to congenital ichthyosis in families from the UAE and Turkey, revealing a connection between keratinization disorders and impaired filaggrin processing.

This preliminary study suggests that finasteride might cause depressive symptoms, indicating the need for cautious prescription in patients at high risk for depression.

This study found that overexpression of PKCepsilon in transgenic mice reduced papilloma development but accelerated carcinoma formation in a skin tumor promotion model.

This review discusses the possible impacts of prolactin on skin conditions like psoriasis, alopecia, and stress-related dermatoses, emphasizing the need for further research to explore its therapeutic potential.

This review discusses evidence-based guidance for managing primary cicatricial alopecias but reports no new clinical results, highlighting significant gaps in knowledge and the need for more quality trials.

This article discusses the role of human hair follicles in neuroendocrinology and suggests potential new therapeutic targets by examining how neuromediators influence hair growth, pigmentation, and stem cell biology in organ cultures.

This review critically examines the current medical management strategies for BPH/LUTS and reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the etio-pathogenetic factors in benign prostatic hyperplasia and their role in the development of lower urinary tract symptoms but reports no new research findings.

This review discusses advances in protecting against chemotherapy-induced alopecia and reports no new clinical results; calcitriol and cyclosporine A emerged as promising agents in animal models with broader efficacy across multiple chemotherapy drugs.

This study identified WNT10A as crucial for adult epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation, suggesting β-catenin pathway activation may help address regenerative defects in WNT10A mutation patients.

This study found that G protein-coupled estrogen receptor enhances melanin synthesis in melanoma cells through cAMP-PKA-MITF-TYR signaling, suggesting its potential as a drug target for chloasma treatment.

In this study, significant elevations of DHA and testosterone were associated with pubic hair development and voice changes in boys during puberty.

This article reviews primary cicatricial alopecias, focusing on lymphocytic forms such as chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus, according to a classification by the North American Hair Research Society, and reports no new clinical results.

Gene expression in wool follicles changes with growth cycles, offering insights into wool and human hair growth.

This study found that male 5αR1 knockout mice and obese Zucker rats treated with finasteride showed increased insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis, potentially implicating 5α-reductase activity in metabolic liver disease development.

This review describes the roles of 5α-reductase isozymes in prostate development and pathology and reports no new clinical results.

This study identified an unexpected critical role for the FATP4 protein in skin and hair development in mice, linking it to a potential candidate gene for restrictive dermopathy in humans.

This study found that newborn mouse skin organoids can robustly grow hair in vivo, while adult organoids require specific interventions to restore their hair-forming ability.

This study found that transgenic mice overexpressing the BMP antagonist noggin showed increased hair follicle size and altered hair type, linked to changes in cell proliferation and gene expression.

In this study, transgenic mice overexpressing the glucocorticoid receptor in certain epithelia showed skin development abnormalities resembling ectodermal dysplasia and exhibited reduced inflammatory responses.

This study demonstrates that hair follicle bulge stem cells can transition into other stem cell compartments, indicating their role in maintaining both hair follicles and sebaceous glands.

This study found that overexpression of the enzyme SSAT in a mouse model significantly reduced prostate tumor size and progression, suggesting it could be a promising strategy against prostate cancer.

This study found that prolactin and its receptor are expressed in the murine hair follicle epithelium, influencing hair cycle phases by down-regulating keratinocyte proliferation during anagen and inducing premature catagen.

This paper describes the PRIDE syndrome associated with epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that finasteride significantly reduced VEGF expression and microvessel density in prostatic suburethral tissue, suggesting a mechanism for decreased bleeding in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia.

In this study, 1 mg/day finasteride lowered serum PSA concentration in men aged 40–60, suggesting that PSA adjustment recommendations for prostate cancer screening using 5 mg/day finasteride should also apply to this lower dose for hair loss treatment.
