This study found that the phytosterols β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, and campesterol have low-to-negligible inhibitory activity against steroidal 5α-reductase type 2 compared to the synthetic inhibitor dutasteride, with β-sitosterol showing the highest activity among the tested phytosterols.

SPRY1 deficiency in skin cells causes stem cells to move to the skin surface, leading to increased pigmentation.

This study found that the interdigital gland of Vembur sheep has larger secretory lobules in males than females, producing various compounds for chemical communication and foot protection.

This study found that RSPO1, a Wnt/β-catenin pathway agonist, significantly induces insulin-producing β cell replication and neogenesis in various settings, offering a promising potential therapy for diabetes.

This study found that sustained ERK activity during tissue regeneration in spiny mice is linked to fibroblast growth factor and ErbB signaling, while inhibiting ERK shifted regeneration toward scarring.

Women have a higher DHT/testosterone ratio than men, possibly due to gut bacteria activity.

In this study, onion (Allium cepa) extracts promoted hair growth in an alopecia model in mice, with the effect appearing unrelated to the presence of the polyphenol quercetin.

In this study, researchers observed that Centratherum anthelminticum seed extract effectively reduced cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin resistance, and inflammatory markers, while normalizing hormone levels and oxidative stress markers in rodents with PCOS, suggesting potential benefits for managing the condition.

The congress highlighted new gene therapy techniques and cell transplantation methods for treating diseases.

This document provides protocols for gender-affirming hormone therapy in India, highlighting the need for research on outcomes and adverse events in adults receiving such therapy; it reports no new results.

TG5 helps maintain hair follicle health, while TG3 aids in hair shaft development.

This review discusses treatment options for tics in Gilles de la Tourette syndrome, highlighting existing therapies and potential future advancements, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that patients with STSD show a different pattern in androgen activation compared to healthy controls, potentially due to increased 5α-reductase activity and absent prepubertal serum DHEA surge.

This study reported that black hairy tongue can occur after allogeneic stem cell transplantation and may indicate cutaneous graft-versus-host disease, highlighting the need for histopathologic evaluation.

This study reported that EGFR activation leads to suppression of Stathmin, which may promote synchronized entry into catagen in hair follicles, highlighting potential mechanisms involving EGFR in hair cycle transitions.

This publication reviews the World Professional Association for Transgender Health's Standards of Care for supporting transgender and gender nonconforming people, with adjustments needed for diverse global contexts and no new clinical results.

This review discusses the regulatory frameworks for cell and gene therapy products in the US, EU, and India, and highlights the growth and challenges in their clinical trial stages, but reports no new experimental outcomes.

This study found that the Transdermal Delivery System efficiently delivers testosterone systemically and showed bioequivalent hormone concentrations to a known topical gel in healthy males.

This study found that GnRH-a treatment or orchiectomy, which required significantly lower doses of oral estradiol valerate, were more effective than anti-androgens like spironolactone and finasteride in achieving target hormone levels in transgender females in India.

This review discusses the role of steroid sulfatase in steroid hormone metabolism and highlights the need for more research on its expression and regulation, especially regarding hormone-dependent tumors.

This study found that incorporating 0.5% TPGS into topical minoxidil solutions enhanced hair growth in mice, although increasing TPGS to 2% decreased effectiveness.

This study found that among transgender men undergoing long-term testosterone therapy, a severe pattern of androgenetic alopecia may indicate increased arterial stiffness, as measured by higher intima-media thickness of the carotid artery.

This review revisits hair-thread tourniquet syndrome, highlighting the importance of prompt diagnosis and treatment by removing the constricting hair or similar substance to prevent damage to affected body parts, aiming to raise healthcare professionals' awareness for better prevention and management.

This study suggests that tissue transglutaminase (TG2) may play a role in sebum production by regulating autophagy in sebaceous glands, offering potential targets for dermatological interventions.

This study reports that the peptide GPIGS, found in Bacillus sp. M18 conditioned medium, may promote hair growth through the PI-3K/Akt pathway and accelerate hair regrowth in mice.

This study reports that human epidermal transglutaminase activity increases with treatment using organic solvents and chemicals without significant molecular weight changes, which may allow modulation of the enzyme in skin diseases.

This study found that applying 2.5% testosterone gel increased facial terminal hairs in young males with beta-thalassemia major and was well tolerated.

In this study, a TGF-β mimic molecule from Heligmosomoides polygyrus was observed to enhance wound healing in mice, with improved tissue regeneration and specific immune cell recruitment without increased scarring.

This study found that contrast enhanced phototrichogram (CE-PTG) significantly improved detection of various hair types and growth stages in androgenetic alopecia compared to standard PTG and was comparable to biopsy analysis.
