This study found that basal cell carcinomas show strong expression of vitamin D receptors at both mRNA and protein levels, suggesting a potential role in tumor growth regulation.

This review suggests that quercetin supplementation may benefit ovarian functions and hormonal levels in polycystic ovary syndrome, though further high-quality trials are needed for confirmation.

This study found that isotretinoin, a drug commonly used for acne, inhibits polyamine transport in Trypanosoma cruzi, leading to trypanocidal effects, and suggests its potential as a treatment for Chagas disease without affecting mammalian cell viability.

This review summarizes the current understanding of microRNAs in skin biology, highlighting their roles in processes like wound-healing and aging, without presenting any new experimental results.

The authors describe drug repurposing as a promising strategy for finding new uses for existing drugs, noting it is efficient, cost-effective, and poses lower risks than traditional drug discovery processes, potentially aiding in the treatment of rare and difficult-to-treat diseases.

This study found that Par3 plays a crucial role in maintaining epidermal homeostasis by regulating Rho/actomyosin contractility and ensuring mitotic accuracy, with potential implications for other self-renewing epithelia.

This study found that a genetic model using SNPs can predict early-onset male-pattern baldness with moderate accuracy, which may assist in decisions about interventions.

This review discusses the physiology of hair follicles, their disorders, and the principles behind developing treatments, reporting no new results.

This study found that exercise decreases the expression of 5αR1, thereby enhancing the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in PCOS rats.
