June 2011 in “Portuguese National Funding Agency for Science, Research and Technology (RCAAP Project by FCT)” The researchers reported that both estrogen receptors ERα and ERβ are expressed in human testis, and identified two novel genes, Aven and Regucalcin, linked to estrogen and androgen regulation, which may be crucial for spermatogenesis.
April 2008 in “Medical & surgical dermatology” Certain hairstyles can cause scalp diseases, smoking is linked to hair loss, 5% minoxidil foam is effective for hair loss treatment, and various factors influence wound healing and hair growth.
This study found that dense-packing hair grafting is a simple, safe, and effective method for restoring scarring alopecia, with high patient satisfaction and significant graft survival rates reported.

March 2026 in “Journal of Clinical Oncology” In this study, pre-treatment with 5-α-reductase inhibitors (finasteride/dutasteride) in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma was associated with better immune checkpoint inhibitor effectiveness and improved progression-free and overall survival, without increasing severe side effects.
This study found that administering gingerol improved survival and reduced organ damage in mouse models of chronic graft-versus-host disease by modulating T cell differentiation and inflammatory cytokines, suggesting a novel therapeutic approach for steroid-refractory cases.
This study found that the survival and proliferation of mouse melanocytes expressing the GNAQQ209L oncogene were impaired by interactions with the epidermal microenvironment, suggesting a possible mechanism for the rarity of these mutations in epidermal melanomas.
April 2019 in “Radiotherapy and oncology” HPV infection is linked to better survival in advanced anal cancer, higher radiation doses improve survival, especially in HPV-negative patients, and prostaglandin E₂ pretreatment can protect mouse hair follicles from radiation damage.
