New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.

Short telomeres contribute to aging and cancer, and while telomerase can delay aging, it may also promote cancer.

A new mutation in the hairless gene causes hair loss and skin wrinkling in mice.

Certain gene variations might be linked to severe acne in women but not in men.

Some thymic peptides can increase human hair growth, while others may inhibit it.

Using a combination of specific cell cycle regulators is better for safely keeping hair root cells alive indefinitely compared to cancer-related methods.

The document explains the genetic causes and characteristics of inherited hair disorders.

Molecular diagnostics help identify genetic defects causing endocrine diseases, improving diagnosis and treatment options.

FLCN helps control iron levels in cells.

DNA methylation is essential for skin and hair follicle development, and could be a target for treating skin diseases.

Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.

Dexamethasone affects hair growth by altering levels of proteins that either promote or inhibit hair follicle growth.

Caffeine can protect scalp hair follicles from damage caused by UV radiation.

Androgens like testosterone affect skin health and can lead to conditions such as acne and hair loss, with various treatments available.

Mice without the vitamin D receptor have bone issues and other health problems, suggesting vitamin D is important for preventing various diseases in humans.

MicroRNAs are crucial in controlling cell signaling, affecting cancer and tissue regeneration.

Proteasome inhibitors are promising treatments for various cancers, autoimmune diseases, and other conditions.

Anabolic steroids can build muscle and strength but have risks and need more research on their clinical benefits and side effects.

Myo-inositol supplements may improve insulin sensitivity and help with conditions like PCOS and gestational diabetes, but more research is needed.

Metformin helps with menstrual cycles and insulin levels in PCOS but is less effective for hair growth, diabetes prevention, and weight loss, and may improve fertility and reduce diabetes risk.

Calreticulin has roles in healing, immune response, and disease beyond its known functions in the endoplasmic reticulum.

The skin has a complex immune system that is essential for protection and healing, requiring more research for better wound treatment.

Understanding where cancer cells come from helps create better prevention and treatment methods.

The PDGF/PDGFR pathway is a potential drug target with mixed success in treating various diseases, including some cancers and fibrosis.

Wnt signaling controls whether hair follicle stem cells stay inactive or regenerate hair.

Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.

The WNT signaling pathway is important in many diseases and targeting it could offer new treatments.

Protoporphyrin IX is useful in cancer treatment but can cause health problems if not properly regulated.

Different types of stem cells with unique roles exist in blood, skin, and intestines, and this variety is important for tissue repair.
