research 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors Use in Prostatic Disease and Beyond
5-alpha reductase inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, are used for prostate issues, hair loss, and excessive hair growth, may help with COVID-19, but can cause sexual and mental health side effects, and their use in preventing prostate cancer needs more examination.
research Ideal JAK Inhibitor for Alopecia Areata: Baricitinib, Tofacitinib, Ritlecitinib, or Ifidancitinib - Revisiting the Immunomechanisms of the JAK Pathway
No single ideal JAK inhibitor for alopecia areata has been determined; JAK3 inhibitors may be promising with fewer side effects.
research Two Cases of Low Prostate-Specific Antigen Localized Prostate Cancer Incidentally Detected by Computed Tomography
CT scans can find serious prostate cancer even when PSA levels are low.
research Synthesis of Novel Androstane-N-Cyclohexyl-17-Carboxamides and Their Effect on 5α-Reductase Isoform 2, Androgen Receptor, and Androgen-Dependent Glands
New compounds were made and tested, with compound 6 showing potential for treating prostate-related diseases.
research 5-Aminolevulinic Acid Improves Chicken Sperm Motility
5-Aminolevulinic acid can help chicken sperm move better at the right amount.
research Early-Onset Male Androgenetic Alopecia Associated with Prostate Cancer
Early baldness in men may indicate a higher risk of prostate cancer.
research Update on Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) affects 6%-15% of women of reproductive age, causing symptoms like acne and hair loss, and increasing the risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease; it's managed through diet, exercise, and medications like Metformin and hormonal contraceptives.
research Erratum
The document contains an error.
research A Retrospective Study of Semen Quality in Young Infertile Men with Androgenetic Alopecia After Discontinuation of Finasteride
Stopping finasteride improves sperm quality but not semen volume in young men.
research Abstracts from the Current Global Literature: Finasteride and Sexual Dysfunction
Finasteride, a hair loss drug, can cause sexual side effects like erectile dysfunction in 2.1%-3.8% of users, but these usually go away with time or if the drug is stopped. Despite this, its impact on sexual function is minimal for most men.
research Female Androgenetic Alopecia
Female pattern hair loss is different from male pattern hair loss and has unclear genetic causes.
research Faculty Opinions Recommendation of Androgenetic Alopecia as an Early Marker of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Early hair loss in men could be a sign of non-cancerous prostate enlargement, and treating hair loss early might help prevent prostate issues later.
research Faculty Opinions Recommendation of Androgenetic Alopecia as an Early Marker of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Hair loss can be an early sign of prostate enlargement.

research The Selective Androgen Receptor Modulator GTx-024 (Enobosarm) Improves Lean Body Mass and Physical Function in Healthy Elderly Men and Postmenopausal Women: Results of a Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Phase II Trial
Enobosarm significantly increased muscle mass and improved physical function in elderly men and postmenopausal women without serious side effects.
research Design, Synthesis, and Biological Characterization of Metabolically Stable Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators
Researchers developed new compounds that target the androgen receptor effectively with fewer side effects.
research The Pathobiology of Skin Aging
The document reviewed the pathobiology of skin aging, identifying it as a degenerative process influenced by intrinsic and environmental factors, leading to structural changes such as epidermal thinning, loss of dermal papillae, and decreased collagen and elastin, which contribute to wrinkles and sagging. It highlighted the role of stem cell dysfunction, genetic factors, and immune system decline in skin deterioration, noting increased susceptibility to infections and skin cancer. The review argued for recognizing skin aging as a disease due to its health implications and variability among individuals. It also discussed the psychological impact of skin aging and advocated for public health strategies to mitigate its progression. The document emphasized the complex interplay between skin aging, stem cell function, and immune response, suggesting potential interventions like targeting sirtuins to reverse aging effects.
