This case report describes three patients with Netherton syndrome who experienced growth hormone deficiency and improved growth rates following growth hormone therapy.

This review discusses spironolactone's new roles in tumor immunosurveillance, DNA repair inhibition, and viral infection suppression, highlighting its potential to extend uses beyond traditional applications, but reports no clinical results.

In this study, hydrolysates of lactic acid bacteria were found to enhance hair growth in C57BL/6 male mice more effectively than 5% minoxidil.

This study found that weakened anchorage of hair shafts, associated with the abnormal expression of 14-3-3σ, may contribute to alopecia in Er/+ mice.

This study suggests that LONRF1 may play a vital role in linking oxidative damage responses and tissue remodeling during wound healing, with distinct mechanisms in senescent and non-senescent cells.

This review discusses how targeting protein degradation processes may help overcome cancer drug resistance, but reports no new clinical results and suggests further research for precise therapeutic strategies.

This review highlights phytochemicals, particularly flavonoids and phenolics, as potential supportive treatments for SARS-CoV-2 by interfering with viral proteins and providing anti-inflammatory effects; it suggests a foundation for future therapeutic and vaccine development efforts.

This study found that the combined use of sugarcane fibre and keratinolytic enzymes reduced hairball excretion in cats.

The document concludes that early diagnosis of Balint's syndrome is crucial for effective treatment and that understanding drug interactions, like between ritonavir and statins, is important for patient care.

In this study, the researchers developed a new protocol using human-induced pluripotent stem cells to efficiently create skin hair follicle organoids, which may aid in optimizing hair follicle growth and exploring treatments for alopecia.

This study demonstrated that treating platelet-rich plasma with ozone or procaine in vitro led to distinct changes in platelet activity, significantly enhancing the release of platelet-derived factors without damaging the platelets, indicating potential for improved regenerative therapies.

This review discusses the repurposing of natural products for COVID-19 treatment but reports no new clinical findings, highlighting ongoing research to target host and viral mechanisms.

This review examines the development and challenges of using PROTACs, a targeted protein degradation strategy, to treat cancer by degrading specific proteins like PARPs and GPX4, highlighting issues such as target diversification and bioavailability.

This study highlights the underexplored allergenic potential of Trichophyton rubrum, a dermatophyte, which can trigger IgE-mediated allergic reactions and a Th2 immune response shift, underscoring the need for its inclusion in diagnostic panels and further research for treating chronic mycoses and related allergies.

In laboratory settings, this study found that finasteride repurposed as a quorum sensing inhibitor significantly reduced virulence factors of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, including biofilm formation by 45% and pyocyanin production by 49%, suggesting potential for treating infections.

This study explored new molecular structures as potential COVID-19 treatments, identifying a compound called Hit15 that inhibited viral infection in lab settings and reduced inflammation markers in human neutrophils, suggesting further development is warranted.

This review summarizes the latest updates on using antiandrogens as potential prophylactic and therapeutic options for COVID-19, highlighting that androgen-mediated regulation of factors like TMPRSS2 and ACE2 is involved in SARS-CoV-2 infection, suggesting a strategy to block viral entry into cells.

This study reviewed previous research and highlights the potential of plant-derived compounds as anti-coronaviral agents, emphasizing the inhibition of viral enzymes and the need for further natural-origin antiviral investigations.

This study revisits and reproduces Felix Pinkus' concept of the vitreous membrane in hair follicles, suggesting these structures may play a role in differentiation or nutrition due to their location in metabolically dynamic regions.

This article lists online educational resources from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons but reports no new research findings.

This research discusses potential cancer vaccine strategies using cell-based and DNA vector-based approaches, and suggests targeting the v3 splice variant of thioredoxin reductase 1 to inhibit cancer cell motility and metastasis formation.

This study presented at the ASCO Annual Meeting reported that the epidermal growth factor receptor antibody ABX-EGF showed preliminary efficacy in renal cell cancer patients, with tolerable side effects, while bortezomib demonstrated clinical benefit in a significant proportion of multiple myeloma patients.

Authors defend finasteride-depression link, suggest detailed medical history, and call for more investigation.

This review discusses the use of platelet-rich fibrin in medical fields, especially dentistry, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the ethanol extract of mangkokan leaf (Polyscias scutellarium) demonstrated antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, with higher concentrations showing greater inhibition zones, particularly against Staphylococcus aureus.

This case study reported on a 62-year-old woman with ovarian hyperthecosis, which caused symptoms like hirsutism and elevated testosterone; after bilateral oophorectomy, her symptoms improved, suggesting the importance of considering this rare condition in hyperandrogenism diagnosis for postmenopausal women.

This case report describes a family with autosomal dominant transmission of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans, with observed treatment refractoriness in multiple topical and systemic therapies.

This study found that androgen deprivation therapy in prostate cancer patients was associated with fewer SARS-CoV-2 infections but did not reduce COVID-19 disease severity or hospitalizations.

Any drug can cause skin reactions, but antibiotics, NSAIDs, and psychotropic drugs are more common, with some reactions being life-threatening.

This study explores the correlation between sirtuins' expression, histone deacetylation, and redox status in young and old monozygotic twins to understand their role in age-related mechanisms.
