This review summarizes a meta-analysis suggesting that finasteride is most effective for improving symptoms and urinary flow in men with large prostates experiencing benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study suggests that androgens enhance growth factor production in dermal fibroblasts, which in turn may alter keratinocyte differentiation and contribute to acne lesion formation.

This review discusses recent findings on the epigenetic regulation of adult stem cells and cancer stem cells, highlighting shared and distinct features, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that telomere shortening disrupts BMP/pSmad/P63 signaling, leading to skin atrophy via Follistatin up-regulation, and suggests potential therapeutic targets.

This study concluded that neither basal nor ACTH-stimulated 17-OHP concentrations effectively indicate carrier status for 21-hydroxylase deficiency among Slovenian hyperandrogenic women, recommending molecular analysis of the CYP21 gene for reliable screening.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of functional hypothalamic amenorrhea in adolescent girls and reports no new clinical results.

This study reports that BMP2 expression in goat skin is higher during late telogen and early anagen phases, indicating a potential role in hair follicle regeneration.

This study found that exposure to finasteride impaired spermatogenesis in male Xenopus laevis by affecting sex-specific feedback mechanisms in the hypothalamus–pituitary–gonad axis.

This study demonstrated that customized microneedle arrays can precisely induce targeted hair regeneration and improve hair quality in mice, potentially offering a personalized treatment approach for hair loss.

This case series describes six women with both PCOS and Graves' disease, suggesting a possible shared underlying cause for their co-occurrence.

This study demonstrated that using a perfusion culture bioreactor and 3D spheroid culture can enhance corneal endothelial cell expansion and support the construction of tissue-engineered corneal endothelial layers in vitro.

This study demonstrated that dermal papilla cells are molecularly distinct from fibroblasts and identified many novel molecules, including a new member of the CTGF protein family.

This study found that Secretory Phospholipase A2-IIA (sPLA2-IIA) promotes proliferation through JNK/c-Jun signaling, distinctively affecting normal stem cells and cancer cells, suggesting it as a potential target for cancer treatment.

In this study, researchers found that microRNAs and specific target genes, such as MiR-195 and genes like CHP1, SMAD2, FZD6, and SIAH1, play significant roles in regulating hair follicle initiation in cashmere goats.

This study found that the PP2A-B55α regulatory subunit is crucial for ectodermal development in mice, with knockout embryos displaying severe neural and epidermal defects and failing to survive to birth.

In this study, the gene SlPHL1 was identified as a transcription factor in tomatoes that enhances phosphate starvation responses by upregulating specific genes.

In this study, oil body-bound oleosin-rhFGF-10 was more efficiently absorbed through the skin and enhanced wound healing and hair growth in mice, compared to prokaryotically-expressed rhFGF-10.

In this study, subcutaneous recombinant human IL-12 showed a 43% partial response rate in early-stage mycosis fungoides patients refractory to previous treatments, with generally mild to moderate adverse events reported.

This study reported that 5 alpha-reductase type 2 is the predominant enzyme in pubic skin fibroblasts across normal men, women, and hirsute patients, suggesting potential treatment options for idiopathic hirsutism.

This study found that long non-coding RNAs are differentially expressed in androgenetic alopecia, suggesting potential roles in its development and novel targets for prevention and treatment.

This review discusses the potential role of the dietary antioxidant index in reducing the risk of various diseases, including obesity-related conditions, certain cancers, osteoporosis, and mental illnesses, but calls for further studies to confirm these findings.

This review discusses the structure, functions, and growth cycle of human hair, emphasizing its reduced growth and protective roles, and reports no new research findings.

This study suggests that the vitamin D receptor and hairless gene may directly regulate each other via a transcriptional mechanism, potentially explaining phenotypic similarities between atrichia and VDRRIIa rickets.

In this study, PKC ε transgenic mice exposed to ultraviolet radiation showed increased hair follicle stem cell frequency and altered gene expression compared to wild-type mice, suggesting a potential role in skin cancer susceptibility.

This review emphasizes the potential of repurposing topical L-thyroxine for skin ulcers and telogen effluvium and highlights the need for further exploration of its use in dermatology.

This study found that Hedgehog signaling likely contributes to cervical carcinogenesis, and while itraconazole reduced growth in mice, it did so through pathways other than inhibiting Hedgehog signaling.

This study demonstrates that Tp63-expressing epithelial stem cells from non-skin tissues can respond to skin morphogenetic signals and contribute to the formation of hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and epidermis.

Dr. Vera H. Price's 1979 work emphasizes the importance of accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment for hair loss.

This study found that deleting Snai2 and Snai3 genes in mice disrupts immune cell development, resulting in severe autoimmunity and early death due to the loss of immune tolerance.

This study found that Thy1+ keratinocytes in the basal layer of the interfollicular epidermis play a crucial role in epidermal homeostasis and wound repair, with their ablation impairing these processes.
