This study found that four microRNAs, which were significantly upregulated in balding hair follicle papilla cells, could play a role in the development of male pattern baldness.

This review discusses various applications of CRISPR-based tools in cancer research, emphasizing their potential for investigating microRNA functions and developing microRNA-based therapies, despite challenges like off-target effects and delivery issues in using CRISPR/Cas9.

This chapter reviews the causes and underlying steroid pathways of hirsutism and virilization in women, detailing relevant conditions and laboratory assays without reporting new clinical results.

This review highlights the emerging role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in dermatology, suggesting that lncRNAs significantly impact signaling pathways involved in normal skin functions and skin diseases, offering potential as biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

This review discusses a traditional medicinal plant used in various holistic health systems and reports its potential antitumor activity, but no new clinical results are provided.

This research highlights that engineered mice lacking the vitamin D receptor show multiple health issues similar to human vitamin D deficiency, underscoring the widespread impacts of the vitamin D endocrine system.

This article discusses the treatment of androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata with finasteride and minoxidil but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, patients informed about finasteride's potential sexual side effects reported a significantly higher occurrence of these side effects, suggesting a nocebo effect.

This article reviews the historical developments in understanding and treating male pattern hair loss, emphasizing the role of dihydrotestosterone and 5α-reductase inhibitors, but reports no new clinical findings.

This abstract discusses the unclear role of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in postembryonic life in marsupials and possibly humans, reporting no new findings.
