This study found that finasteride effectively reduced VEGF expression and microvascular development in the retinas of early diabetic rats.

This study found that several dehydroepiandrosterone ester derivatives effectively reduced prostate and seminal vesicle weight in gonadectomized hamsters treated with testosterone, demonstrating potential antiandrogen effects comparable to Finasteride.

This study described the diverse vibrissal follicle anatomy in fetuses of three cetacean species and observed species-specific differences, supporting further investigation into vibrissal form and function across cetaceans.

This study observed that 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 restored rickets symptoms in genetically modified rats, suggesting its direct action through vitamin D receptor pathways.

This review summarizes characteristics of vaginal moisturizers, lubricants, and washes for managing genitourinary syndrome of menopause, and clarifies common misconceptions about their chemical additives, without providing new clinical results.

This case report describes an atypical presentation of eruptive vellus hair cysts on the elbows, where standard diagnostic techniques were unreliable due to the loss of cystic structural integrity.

This review discusses the capabilities of ethosomes as drug delivery carriers and reports improved outcomes in a clinical study with an ethosomal acyclovir formulation.

This study suggests that fibroblast growth factors exhibit significant expression differences in rodent and primate skin, potentially related to their evolutionary paths and environmental adaptations.

This study found that two-thirds of patients with persistent chronic daily headache showed significant improvement with divalproex sodium treatment, although common side effects included weight gain, tremor, hair loss, and nausea.

In this case study, researchers identified a Leydig cell tumor in a 56-year-old postmenopausal woman with virilization symptoms by using ovarian vein sampling, as imaging was nonrevealing, and confirmed the tumor's location using testosterone ratios, which supported previous findings.

The vitamin D receptor helps control hair growth and may protect against certain skin tumors.

This study found that transplantation of autologous stromal vascular fraction cells increased skin thickness and improved regeneration when combined with mechanical stretching, without severe adverse events.

This article outlines the potential for upregulating the vitamin D receptor in treating hair disorders, emphasizing the need for further studies to evaluate vitamin D's role in the hair cycle.

Early surgery reduces seizure risk in drug-resistant epilepsy; testosterone to DHT conversion doesn't affect muscle anabolism; veterans with PTSD likely to have riskier opioid use; bevacizumab helps in hereditary bleeding disorder.

This study found that cepharanthine may be a promising treatment for enterovirus infections, as it offered full protection to mice against lethal EV71 challenges and reduced viral titers and pathology.

In this study, researchers developed an AI-powered platform called VitaDetect, which screens for vitamin deficiencies using image analysis of nails, tongue, and skin, aiming to provide an accessible and early-stage detection tool in resource-limited settings.

This in-silico study identified several compounds as potential Vitamin D Receptor agonists, with Dolichosterone showing the strongest binding energy.

This study engineered a programmable platform using miniaturized needle arrays for drug delivery, showing improved wound healing outcomes in diabetic mice compared to standard topical treatments.

This chapter discusses the molecular biology of the vitamin D receptor in gene transcription and reports no new results; it highlights recent findings on receptor activity independent of its usual ligand.

In this study, iPSC-derived epidermal organoids demonstrated potential as a novel tool for regenerative medicine by producing high-performance extracellular vesicles that promote proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis in cell-free therapies for wound healing.

This study found that serum VEGF levels were lower in women with telogen effluvium compared to healthy controls, indicating a possible role of VEGF in the condition's pathogenesis.

This study found that the vitamin D receptor, but not its ligand, regulates genes involved in hair cycle progression, suggesting a role in integrating hormone signaling pathways for hair and epidermal functions.

Vitamin D receptor is key to hair growth, not vitamin D itself.

This study observed that cultured dermal papilla cells showed distinct functional properties from dermal fibroblasts, including lower proliferation rates, higher adhesion to collagen type IV, and different cell-matrix interactions.

This review discusses the role of the unliganded vitamin D receptor in hair follicle cycling and tumor formation in mice and reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that the hairless gene product (Hr) suppresses VDR-mediated gene activation by directly interacting with the vitamin D receptor, potentially affecting hair follicle function.

This study concluded that using human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells transfected with VEGF and FGF2 genes enhances skin wound healing in rats, demonstrating greater wound revascularization compared to controls.

This study found that extracellular vesicles from erythrocytes may promote hair regeneration in patients with androgenic alopecia by transferring components that upregulate Wnt/β-catenin signaling and are involved in the formation of the skin's outer barrier.

Using synchrotron X-ray imaging, this study mapped the complex innervation of male rat vibrissa follicles, revealing distinct types of myelinated afferent neurons and patterns of axonal organization that may inform sensory processing in the brainstem.

This study found that zebrafish and sticklebacks, despite differences in their tooth regeneration structures, share a similar genetic program during tooth regeneration, suggesting a conserved "successional dental epithelium" in vertebrates.
