This study found that men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia had significantly larger prostate volumes and lower urinary flow rates compared to healthy controls, suggesting a possible link between AGA and prostate-related urinary symptoms.

This study found that androgenic alopecia at an early age was associated with a lower risk of prostate cancer, contrary to assumptions about androgens' role.

This study concluded that the frizzy mutation in mice is linked to a T to A transversion in Prss8 and is orthologous to the 'hairless' mutation in rats.

This study found that progesterone can increase glycine release in rat brainstem neurons through its conversion to allopregnanolone, which modulates presynaptic GABA receptor activity.

This study found that 0.7% apple procyanidin oligomers applied externally for six months significantly increased hair growth in men with male pattern baldness compared to placebo, with no observed adverse effects.

This study found that overexpression of PKCepsilon in mouse epidermis was associated with increased susceptibility to metastatic squamous cell carcinoma, potentially through a mechanism involving tumor necrosis factor-alpha.

This study by Gao et al. reports that two nonsteroidal selective androgen receptor modulators, S1 and S4, demonstrated tissue-selective actions in rats, suppressing prostate growth while maintaining muscle growth without altering hormone levels.

This review discusses the hormonal influences on prostate carcinogenesis and notes ongoing trials investigating whether finasteride could reduce prostate cancer incidence by inhibiting dihydrotestosterone synthesis, but it reports no new results.

This study demonstrated that the highly divergent WDSV rv-cyclin significantly stimulates eukaryotic cell proliferation, leading to hyperplastic skin lesions in transgenic mice.

This study found that proteolytic activities in murine skin vary with hair cycle stages, with significant collagenase activity during the early anagen phase.

The researchers reported that noncoding double-stranded RNA promotes wound-induced hair neogenesis in mice by modulating prostaglandin and Wnt levels.

This study found that altering neonatal neurosteroid levels affected anxiety and aversive learning in adult rats, possibly through changes in hippocampal GABAergic functions.

In this study, Wnt-10b was found to promote hair follicle development and hair growth in cultured mouse embryonic skin and transplanted skin in nude mice.

This study found that protease nexin-1 mRNA is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and is downregulated by dihydrotestosterone in balding scalp, suggesting a role in male-pattern baldness progression.

This study found that white wax and its extract may promote hair growth in a mouse model of androgenetic alopecia by inhibiting 5α-reductase activity and increasing cell proliferation, with efficacy surpassing finasteride.

In this study, a topical formulation with compounds from the monoterpenoid family significantly improved hair growth indicators like anagen:telogen ratio, hair fall, and visual hair density in men and women with pattern hair loss.

This study found that Dutasteride, a 5α-reductase inhibitor, demonstrated neuroprotective effects by preventing the MPTP-induced decline of dopaminergic markers in a Parkinson's disease mouse model.

This study analyzes how commercial websites for Propecia depict male hair loss and promote medical treatment, suggesting they contribute to medicalizing a natural condition for profit.

In this study, methylprednisolone pulse therapy was found to be effective for severe alopecia areata patients, especially those with a short disease duration or plurifocal type.

Progesterone increases alcohol tolerance and withdrawal anxiety, while DHEAS prevents them.

This study found no significant difference in estrogen and progesterone receptor expression between androgenic alopecia and alopecia areata, suggesting an indirect hormonal influence on androgenic alopecia.

This review discusses adverse effects of 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors, particularly persistent side effects such as post-finasteride syndrome, and highlights the need for further investigation.

This study found that forsythiaside-A, a natural compound from Forsythia suspensa, was more effective than finasteride at preventing apoptosis of hair cells and delaying the catagen phase entry in an androgenic alopecia mouse model.

This study observed that patients with rapidly progressive alopecia areata may have a favorable prognosis regardless of treatment, and regenerated vellus hairs were linked to higher improvement or cure rates.

This study found that progesterone significantly delayed epileptogenesis development in a mouse model, and its effects were inhibited by finasteride, highlighting the potential role of neurosteroids in modifying epilepsy progression.

This study found that high doses of progesterone significantly inhibited neuroblastoma growth in both in vitro and mouse models, while showing selective toxicity and minimal harm to healthy cells.

This study found that l-carnitine stimulated hair growth in vitro by promoting proliferation and reducing apoptosis in human scalp hair follicles, suggesting potential as a treatment for hair loss.

This study found that gastric exclusion surgery in morbidly obese patients resulted in significant weight loss, improved metabolic parameters, and reduced prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, gout, and hyperlipidemia over time.

This review provides an overview of the risks and side effects associated with common medications used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia, highlighting the importance for clinicians and patients to discuss these aspects for informed decision-making.

This study found that TRPV3 activation in human sebocytes inhibits lipid synthesis and triggers proinflammatory cytokine expression, suggesting a role in the pathogenesis of dry skin-associated inflammatory dermatoses.
