This study found that telogen, a resting phase of the hair follicle cycle, is characterized by dynamic gene expression, including enhanced cholesterol metabolism and immune signaling, suggesting it is an active regulatory phase despite its quiescent appearance.

This article reviews existing knowledge on postmenopausal hyperandrogenism and highlights diagnostic challenges, reporting no new clinical results.

The document concludes that there are still unknowns about the effectiveness, risks, and detection of performance-enhancing drugs, and doping remains a challenge.

This study identified novel selective androgen receptor modulators with enhanced in vivo pharmacological activity through structure-activity relationship analysis in castrated rats.

This study found a direct correlation between the testicular feminization gene and decreased androgen receptor activity, potentially explaining the androgen insensitivity in affected individuals.

This review examines the negative effects of anabolic-androgenic steroid use on the male reproductive system, including impaired testosterone production, sperm production issues, and adverse metabolic consequences without reporting new clinical results.

This study identified an association between the FTO gene and susceptibility to PCOS, providing the first genetic evidence linking PCOS to obesity.

This case study reports successful treatment of a 19-year-old with Satoyoshi syndrome using a combination of carbamazepine, methotrexate, prednisolone, and sex-steroids, improving muscle spasms, alopecia, and quality of life.

This study found that several new pregnane derivatives, especially steroids 16 and 19, demonstrated higher antiandrogenic activity on male hamster models than the commonly used finasteride.

Acankoreoside J from Acanthopanax koreanum may help promote hair growth.

This study constructed a model to predict finasteride's inhibitory activity on 5α-reductase type 2 and calculated that a 1 μM plasma concentration, after 50 mg administration, matches prostate inhibition levels.

This study found that fig leaf extract significantly downregulated inflammatory and androgenic gene expression in vitro, suggesting potential topical benefits for certain skin disorders.

This article reviews treatment options and psychological impacts of alopecia areata and reports no new clinical findings.

This case report illustrates the risk of skin necrosis in patients with high antiphospholipid antibody levels after stopping anticoagulation therapy, highlighting the necessity for careful monitoring.

This study found that girls with polycystic ovary syndrome and longer SHBG and AR gene repeats experienced greater improvements in lipid and androgen levels after one year of metformin treatment.

In this case report, two plywood mill workers developed allergic contact dermatitis due to exposure to uncured phenol-formaldehyde resin, not sawdust as initially suspected.

This review discusses the range of cutaneous immune-related adverse events induced by immune checkpoint inhibitors and the proposed mechanisms underlying these skin reactions, but reports no new clinical results.

This study highlights that lower testosterone in men and higher testosterone in women are linked to increased risks of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes, with associated skin diseases indicating potential cardiovascular complications.

This study identified significant changes in the expression of nine proteins in the nucleus accumbens of rats treated with finasteride, suggesting potential novel targets for its neuropsychiatric effects.

This study found that while intensive lifestyle interventions were associated with favorable changes in SHBG levels due to reduced adiposity, these changes did not consistently predict diabetes risk reduction.

This study determined that the human steroid 5α-reductase enzymes localize to the endoplasmic reticulum in HeLa cells, with protein tagging affecting expression and inducing protein aggregates for some isoforms.

This review summarizes how common polymorphisms in androgen and estrogen receptor genes may influence aging-related symptoms and diseases in men, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses nearly 70 patent applications for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia and other hair conditions, highlighting the mechanisms of action explored but reports no clinical results.

This case study suggests that treatment with Pil-Food, intended for hair loss prevention, may have triggered postinfantile giant cell hepatitis with autoimmune characteristics, which showed a rapid and effective response to corticosteroid therapy.

This article reviews common hair disorders and their normal anatomy and life cycle, but reports no new research findings.

This review discusses the roles of steroid hormone receptors in lung function related to COVID-19 and outlines ongoing clinical trials of steroid receptor ligands, but reports no new results.

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.

The skin acts like an endocrine organ, making hormones that affect skin diseases and respond to stress.

This study concluded that dietary changes alter serum progesterone and estradiol levels in late gestation ewes, likely due to metabolism rather than changes in placental steroid synthesis.

This article discusses the roles of pediatrics and dermatology departments at Yale University School of Medicine, but reports no specific clinical results.
