This study found that prenatal exposure to finasteride in pregnant rats significantly disrupted male reproductive development, confirming its use as a positive control for androgen-related reproductive effects.

This review details common symptoms of rheumatic diseases and how to differentiate them from other conditions based on patient history and physical examination.

This case study reported that systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can initially present as patchy non-scarring alopecia, potentially misdiagnosed as alopecia areata, highlighting the importance of thorough examination.

This case study describes a 9-year-old girl with a homozygous EGFR gene mutation, presenting with tubulopathy and chronic dermatitis, whose ongoing symptoms and management offer insights into this rare genetic condition.

This study found that proretinal nanoparticles, applied topically, are safe and effective for penetration into hair follicles, enhancing retinoid biological activity in the skin while reducing irritation compared to conventional retinal formulations.

This review discusses the role of androgens in women's skin-related conditions like acne, hirsutism, and female pattern hair loss, noting the lack of dermatology guidelines for when to pursue endocrinologic evaluation.

This study reports the creation of rat liver stem cell lines that can differentiate into hepatocytes and suggests they might be useful for pharmacological and regenerative medicine applications.

This case report detailed a 38-year-old woman with thallium intoxication, who initially presented with polyneuropathy and alopecia. The diagnosis was confirmed by toxicology, and treatment with potassium hexacyanoferrate led to full recovery, underscoring the importance of early diagnosis and treatment in toxic polyneuropathies.

In this study, a pH-responsive microneedle patch was developed, showing potential in rat models for treating spinal cord injuries by reducing inflammation, promoting nerve regeneration, and supporting neurogenesis, which contributed to improved motor and neurological recovery.

In this case study, a 53-year-old female with multiple autoimmune symptoms was diagnosed with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease, confirmed by specific antibodies, and showed significant clinical improvement after one year of treatment.

This case study reports a patient with Rothmund-Thomson type congenital poikiloderma, showing primarily skin changes and hair loss, along with slightly elevated lysine and cystine levels in urine.

In this study, white females with Ludwig I female pattern hair loss had significantly higher hair density on the occipital scalp area, while Asian females had significantly thicker hair diameters in both frontal and occipital areas.

Amenorrhea is relatively rare and initial testing should check FSH, TSH, and prolactin levels.

This study found that transient mtDNA double strand breaks in mice accelerated aging in certain tissues through increased reactive oxygen species, independent of p21/p53 pathway mediation.

This research discusses the time-of-day-dependent role of protein-complex assembly in the differentiation of human epidermal stem cells and highlights the context-dependent functioning of human protein complexes.

This review discusses the biochemical and biological functions of histone demethylases and their potential involvement in human diseases, including cancer, but reports no new findings.

This study found that Origanum vulgare extract improved testicular structure and function in mice against finasteride-induced damage by enhancing antioxidant defense and modulating gene expression related to apoptosis.

This study found that finasteride treatment in male rats may lead to changes in connexin 43 expression in the testes of their offspring, potentially affecting spermatogenesis.

This review discusses mesenchymal stem cells' role in tissue regeneration and skin anti-aging, highlighting their migration to damaged sites and secretome effects, but reports no new clinical results.

This review summarizes discussions from a 2010 stem cell biology meeting, covering the origin, behavior, and therapeutic potential of pluripotent and multipotent stem cells, without reporting new experimental findings.

This study demonstrates that c-MYC overexpression in sebaceous glands affects differentiation via a regulatory axis involving the androgen receptor and p53, influencing carcinoma formation outcomes.

This study found that cathepsin L deficiency in mice led to significant abnormalities in hair follicle development and cycling, including disrupted hair shaft outgrowth and premature hair growth phase entry.

This study found that chronic exposure to fadrozole or finasteride during frog development induced intersex individuals, which displayed different gene expression profiles depending on the chemical used.

This study observed that CIP/KIP proteins play a significant role in regulating cell cycle arrest and differentiation in human hair follicles, supporting hair growth and formation in the anagen phase.

This study found that the ARL15 gene affects adipocyte differentiation and adiponectin secretion, and suggests that ARL15 haploinsufficiency may predispose individuals to lipodystrophy.

This study found that a high-energy shock wave can increase osteogenic activities in human mesenchymal cells, offering insights into potential therapeutic targets for trauma-induced heterotopic ossification.

This study demonstrates that Rac1 activity is essential for normal hair follicle formation but influences hair structure and pigmentation, in terminal differentiation, through alterations in hair shaft, cuticle, and pigmentation organization.

This study found that dermal EZH2 plays a crucial role in controlling fibroblast differentiation by regulating Wnt/β-catenin and retinoic acid signaling during skin development.

This study identified distinct gene expression programs in keratinocytes responsible for forming hard scales and soft interscale epidermis in chickens, revealing conserved differentiation genes similar to those in human skin.

This study found that Erdr1 expression was significantly reduced in the skin of patients with hair loss disorders, particularly alopecia areata, suggesting it may serve as a novel biomarker.
