This review summarizes the chemical composition and pharmacological properties of Teak (Tectona grandis) but presents no new research findings, emphasizing its use in traditional medicine and therapeutic potentials.

This review discusses canine dermatomyositis, highlighting its genetic basis, clinical manifestations, and the need for improved treatment options, without reporting new findings.

This review discusses the neurobiology of sexual function and reports no new results; the authors cover multiple endocrine and neurotransmitter influences on sexual desire, arousal, and orgasm stages.

In this study, administering 5alpha-reductase inhibitors reduced dihydrotestosterone levels and was associated with mild, reversible decreases in semen parameters in healthy men.

In this study, minoxidil effectively reduced blood pressure to near normal levels in patients with malignant or accelerated hypertension resistant to conventional treatments, offering a potential alternative to nephrectomy.

This review examines the mechanisms of lung fluid imbalance in COVID-19-related pulmonary edema and suggests potential drug targets to improve management and reduce mortality.

The researchers found that inhibiting soluble epoxide hydrolase, either genetically or pharmacologically, delayed the onset of chemically induced seizures related to GABA antagonism in experimental models.

Minoxidil can cause heart muscle damage in dogs.

This article discusses the emotional and psychological impact of severe alopecia areata on patients, emphasizing feelings of loss, vulnerability, and self-identity changes, and reports no new results.

This study found that Piper nigrum leaf extract showed in vivo anti-androgenic activity and potent 5α-reductase inhibitory effects, with piperine and (−)-cubebin identified as active components.

This chapter reviews surface plasmon resonance (SPR) methodology and its applications in basic science and human disease without reporting new clinical results.

This study reported that the aqueous ethanol extract of Lygodii Spora demonstrated in vitro testosterone 5alpha-reductase inhibition and in vivo anti-androgenic activity, potentially due to oleic, linoleic, and palmitic acids.

This review provides a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms, efficacy, and adverse reactions of drugs commonly used for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, petroleum ether extract of Citrullus colocynthis fruit effectively promoted hair growth in a mouse model of androgen-induced alopecia, showing comparable results to the standard treatment, finasteride.

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

Minoxidil lowers blood pressure effectively but may cause side effects.

Minoxidil promotes hair regrowth, but more research needed for effectiveness and response factors.

This review discusses the developmental and psychological significance of skin and emphasizes the need for considering stress effects when evaluating and treating psychocutaneous diseases, without reporting new clinical results.

This study reports that newly synthesized steroidal trienones exhibit higher 5α-reductase inhibitory activity than dienones in various biological models, suggesting potential use in treating androgen-dependent diseases.

Minoxidil lowers blood pressure and increases heart efficiency, but may raise lung artery pressure in some people.

This review discusses conventional and alternative treatments for trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias, including cluster headache, paroxysmal hemicrania, and SUNCT, and recommends specific medications without reporting new clinical findings.

Minoxidil effectively lowers blood pressure and initially increases plasma renin activity without raising aldosterone levels.

This study found that finasteride significantly improved motor, EEG, and cellular changes in a rat model of thioacetamide-induced hepatic encephalopathy and prevented the development of hepatic coma.

In this study, iL-PRF injections produced significantly better clinical scores for androgenetic alopecia patients compared to controls, especially in those with more severe baseline conditions.

This study found that a synthetic avicequinone C analogue, 5e, was significantly more potent in inhibiting steroid 5α-reductase type 1 activity in human keratinocytes compared to the original isolated compound.

This review discusses the use of topical and oral minoxidil for pediatric hair disorders, pointing out the lack of guidelines and the potential risks associated with systemic absorption, but reports no clinical results.

In this study, clozapine reduced suicide-related behaviors in a schizophrenia-like mouse model, but its effects on exploratory behavior were counteracted by the neurosteroid inhibitor finasteride.

This review highlights the challenges in screening for steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors and discusses significant variability in the effectiveness of finasteride and dutasteride, calling for standardized testing methods to develop safer, more specific inhibitors from herbal preparations.
