This article discusses the multifactorial nature of acne vulgaris, detailing its link to androgen-induced sebum production, altered keratinisation, inflammation, and bacterial colonisation, but reports no new research findings.

This review summarizes the potential of N-acetyl-cysteine in managing diseases linked to redox imbalance, discussing its effects from cellular mechanisms to clinical applications, though further research is suggested for broader use.

This study found that MK-386 selectively suppressed sebum DHT levels in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting potential use for treating acne.

This study found that Hataedock may alleviate atopic dermatitis symptoms in mice by maintaining skin homeostasis and improving skin barrier formation through the endocannabinoid system.

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 AHCC significantly reduced alopecia caused by Ara-C in neonatal rats and improved liver function affected by 6-MP and MTX in mice.

This study reported that MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry profiling demonstrated nearly 100% sensitivity and specificity in detecting adenomyosis and leiomyoma, revealing potential peptide markers for these conditions.

In this study, DPHC from the brown alga Ishige okamurae demonstrated potential to prevent androgenic alopecia by inhibiting hair loss and promoting hair growth through multiple cellular mechanisms.

Blocking the enzyme 11β-HSD1 might help treat obesity and metabolic issues.

This study evaluated the use of oral DHEA for treating atrichia pubis and psychological distress in young females with central adrenal insufficiency but reports no new results.

This study investigated the metabolic pathways of epristeride, a new Type II 5α‐reductase inhibitor, using in vitro models and found that its metabolites show significant interactions with key proteins, suggesting implications for its role in doping control.

In this study, researchers identified several active metabolites in Eclipta alba, demonstrated strong interaction with Alzheimer's disease proteins, and found that 28 days of treatment improved memory without significant toxicity in rats, suggesting potential pathways for treating Alzheimer's.

This case report describes an 8-year-old boy with acrodermatitis enteropathica who showed significant recovery from severe symptoms after receiving a therapeutic zinc supplement.

In this study, researchers developed a carboxylated β-cyclodextrin formulation to enhance finasteride's physicochemical properties, achieving an encapsulation efficiency of about 85% and indicating potential for controlled drug release in therapeutic applications. Their findings suggest this inclusion complex could improve delivery of hydrophobic drugs like finasteride.

In this review, the researchers discuss the potential effectiveness of azelaic acid peels for treating acne vulgaris, melasma, and other skin conditions, while acknowledging that the precise role of these peels in dermatology is not yet fully established due to limited studies.

This study reported dramatic improvements in five collodion baby patients with lamellar ichthyosis treated with oral retinoic acid, noting hair loss as the sole adverse effect, emphasizing the treatment's promising efficacy for physicians.

This study found that using anhydrous cerium(III) chloride with alkyl Grignard reagents significantly improved the addition to sterically hindered 17-ketosteroids, resulting in high yields and stereoselectivity.

This study found that caffeic acid reduced UVB-induced damage and oxidative stress in human dermal papilla cells, suggesting its protective efficacy against such cellular damage.

This study found that 11α-hydroxyprogesterone is a potent inhibitor of 11βHSD2 in vitro and may serve as a precursor to unique C11α-hydroxy steroids in prostate cancer tissue.

This study suggests that oleanolic acid may promote hair growth in mice with testosterone-induced androgenetic alopecia by activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and influencing various molecular levels.

This study suggests that enhancing endocannabinoid tone with an EMT-inhibitor may have anti-inflammatory effects and slightly increase sebaceous lipid production, which could be beneficial for dry skin conditions.

This study found that antiandrogenic therapy with Melleva 35 for three months was effective in reducing hair loss and improving acne in women with both Androgenetic Alopecia and Acne Vulgaris.

This study found that two synthesized androst-4-ene-3-one derivatives, 6f and 6g, exhibited stronger anti-proliferative effects than common drugs on prostate cancer cell lines, with low toxicity to rat cells.

This study found that topical application of glycyrrhizic acid led to significant hair removal in rats without causing inflammation, suggesting potential for treating hypertrichosis in humans.

This study found that inhibiting arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase (ALOX12) may enhance hair cuticle maturation by increasing S100A3 protein citrullination and promoting cuticular differentiation in isolated human hair follicles.

Adalimumab improved folliculitis decalvans in most patients.

A woman developed lupus after taking hydroxyurea for two years.

This study found no elevation of serum DHEA-S levels in men with androgenetic alopecia and observed no correlation between DHEA-S levels and the clinical stage of the condition.

This retrospective study found that cyproterone acetate, both alone and with estrogens, was safe, well tolerated, and induced modest feminizing effects in late-pubertal transgender female adolescents.

Mycophenolic acid may help hair grow by activating pathways important for hair growth.
