In this study, researchers isolated new compounds from the plant *Calanthe cardioglossa* and found that five of these compounds, particularly calancardin B, significantly reduced TNF-α levels in immune cells relevant to multiple sclerosis, suggesting potential for immunomodulatory effects.

This study reported that, in a laboratory setting, araliadiol derived from Centella asiatica activated antioxidant pathways, mitigating urban particulate matter-induced oxidative stress and skin damage.

This study found that PRO 160/120 and Finasteride showed similar effectiveness in improving urinary symptoms and quality of life in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia over 48 weeks.

This review discusses various herbal and pharmaceutical products, including their purported uses and possible interactions, but reports no new research findings.

This study found that methyl jasmonate can induce tanshinone biosynthesis in S. miltiorrhiza by affecting the expression of the SmMEC gene, as supported by RT-PCR and transcriptomic data.

This study found that ultrasonically depolymerized ι-carrageenan from Solieria chordalis yields low-molecular-weight fractions that maintain fibroblast viability and show no cytotoxicity, suggesting potential for safe use in human medicine.

This in-silico study identified several compounds as potential Vitamin D Receptor agonists, with Dolichosterone showing the strongest binding energy.

In this study, researchers developed a delivery system using a deep eutectic solvent to improve hydroxytyrosol absorption for hair regrowth, achieving over threefold greater skin penetration compared to aqueous solutions and demonstrating its effectiveness and biocompatibility in hair regrowth and ROS-scavenging tests.

This study found that shallot (Allium ascalonicum) extracts reduced oxidative stress in human nasal epithelial cells caused by PAH exposure by decreasing ROS generation, suppressing lipid peroxidation, and restoring SOD activity, with quercetin being a key antioxidant component.

This study reports that a low concentration of chitosan induces callose deposition and slows root hair growth in Arabidopsis, suggesting an evolutionary conservation of this response to mild biotic stress across plant types.

This study found that stilbamidine and hydroxystilbamidine can inhibit the release of specific enzymes from lysosomes and mitochondria in rabbit liver at certain concentrations, with effects similar to cortisol and chloroquine.

This study found that overexpression of the SbbHLH85 gene in sweet sorghum increases root hair growth and Na+ absorption, but negatively affects salt tolerance.

This study found that the synthesized compound 7b exhibited higher 5α-reductase inhibitory activity, increased solubility, and dissolution compared to finasteride, suggesting its potential as a lead compound for benign prostatic hyperplasia treatment.

This review discusses the benefits of β-sitosterol, a plant compound found in nuts and seeds, which may lower "bad" cholesterol and help prevent heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, but notes the lack of clinical studies on its safety and effectiveness in humans.

In this study, methanol extract of Cuscuta reflexa leaves significantly reduced blood glucose and improved insulin and liver function in alloxan-induced diabetic rats, indicating potential as an antidiabetic and organ-protective agent.

This article outlines the synthesis of spiro[cyclohexane‐1,2′‐[2 H ]indene] derivatives similar to known steroid 5α‐reductase inhibitors, but it does not report experimental findings.

This study found that indole glycosides from Calanthe discolor Lindl. can significantly promote the proliferation of human hair follicle dermal papilla cells, potentially through upregulating specific growth factors.

This study identified a fungal sulfotransferase enzyme, FgSULT1, from *Fusarium graminearum*, expanding the sulfotransferase superfamily and offering new biocatalytic methods for producing bioactive sulfates.

This review discusses indole-based bifunctional aldose reductase inhibitors and antioxidants for diabetic complications and chronic inflammation-related pathologies, but reports no new clinical results.

Ro stress hindered ginseng root growth and ginsenoside production, but increased certain hormones and affected gene regulation related to plant growth and stress responses.

This source does not provide specific results but reviews scientific research on saw palmetto, highlighting its potential efficacy for benign prostatic hyperplasia and other men's genitourinary disorders, while noting caution for use in women with childbearing potential.

In this in vitro study, researchers found that a combination of soursop leaf extract and doxorubicin moderately enhanced the anti-cancer effect against MCF-7 breast cancer cells, but they did not report on reducing doxorubicin's side effects.

This study reported that phytochemicals SA-4 and SA-6 from Tridax procumbens exhibited a dose-related immunostimulatory effect on mice, suggesting their potential as immunostimulators.

This study reports that structural and biochemical analysis of steroid 5α-reductases clarifies how they mediate steroid reduction with NADPH, potentially aiding in designing targeted therapies.

This study reported that Saw Palmetto, at a physiological dose, partially inhibits 5-alpha-reductase and, when combined with Lycopene, L-Arginine, and Astaxanthin, demonstrates a synergistic effect in restoring hormonal balance, reducing inflammation, and improving hair density, urinary flow, and oxidative biomarkers in related male health conditions.

In this study, researchers developed a novel platform for discovering potential hair loss inhibitors by investigating the testosterone/dihydrotestosterone biosynthetic pathway and its regulation through biochemical mechanisms involving 17β-HSD and 3β-HSD, combined with medicinal plant extracts.

This study suggests that rat skin may synthesize minoxidil sulphate independently, implying the skin could contribute to minoxidil's hair growth promotion without help from the liver or other organs.

This study found that Santolina oil was effective in controlling experimental candidiasis in both in vitro and in vivo settings and enhanced the effectiveness of clotrimazole against Candida albicans in vitro.

This study suggests that oleosomes in Sesbania nodules are utilized for cell growth and development but are not directly involved in nitrogen fixation.
