Scientists turned rat thymus cells into stem cells that can help repair skin and hair.

This case report describes a 17-year-old boy with obesity who was diagnosed with severe hypothyroidism, leading to myopathy, rhabdomyolysis, acute kidney injury, and bradycardia.

In this case report, a 62-year-old woman with hyperandrogenism and polycythemia was diagnosed with a rare ovarian steroid cell tumor, highlighting the importance of considering such tumors in similar presentations; surgical removal led to symptom and lab normalization.

This study synthesized new heterocyclic steroid derivatives and reported their promising antiproliferative activity against breast and prostate cancer cell lines, highlighting selectivity and impact on signaling pathways even in cells resistant to certain treatments.

This study found that TET2 plays a tumor-suppressive role in preventing squamous cell carcinomas by regulating 5-hydroxymethylcytosine levels, suggesting therapeutic potential for DNA methylation dynamics.

This study found that in thin cutaneous melanomas, tumor regression is associated with a higher risk of sentinel lymph node involvement.

This study describes the case of a Filipino woman with virilisation, where a rare ovarian Leydig cell tumour was identified and removed, normalizing her testosterone levels.

This study found that serum levels of NF-L and GFAP decreased but tau protein levels did not change in anorexia nervosa patients after short-term partial weight restoration.

This case report details a patient with autoimmune hypothyroidism who experienced multiple health issues that improved with comprehensive treatment including Thyroxin replacement and other supportive measures.

This case report describes a 57-year-old woman with hirsutism, hair loss, and vocal changes, who was found to have elevated testosterone levels but normal dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate levels.

Regulatory T cells help prevent autoimmunity and have potential for treating autoimmune diseases.

This case report describes a 32-year-old woman with a history of undifferentiated connective tissue disease who presented with cardiogenic shock, and endomyocardial biopsy revealed giant cell myocarditis, possibly indicating an association with her autoimmune condition.

A postmenopausal woman's masculine symptoms improved after surgery for a hormone-producing ovarian tumor.

This case report highlights that in severe illnesses like sepsis, myxedema coma can occur with less elevated TSH levels than typical for primary hypothyroidism, likely due to inflammatory cytokines affecting TSH secretion, even when central lesions are absent.

In this study, Nano-Pulse Stimulation Therapy successfully cleared up to 91% of melanoma tumors in mice with less skin damage compared to cryoablation, which cleared up to 66% of tumors.

This case study reported on a 62-year-old woman with ovarian hyperthecosis, which caused symptoms like hirsutism and elevated testosterone; after bilateral oophorectomy, her symptoms improved, suggesting the importance of considering this rare condition in hyperandrogenism diagnosis for postmenopausal women.

This article discusses the benefits of tumescent surgery, such as reduced blood loss and pain control, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study reported significant symptom improvement in a 30-year-old female with hypothyroidism after Ayurvedic treatment with Kanchnar twak kwath, Shunthi churna, and Nimb tail nasya, noting a reduction in TSH levels from 18.65 to 6.92 post-treatment.
