This review discusses the safety of testosterone therapy for postmenopausal women and concludes that, aside from hirsutism and acne, it appears safe at physiological doses for several years, though more long-term studies are needed.

This study suggests that the GPX-PDE1 and GPX-PDE2 genes in white lupin enhance root hair development and contribute to Pi limitation acclimation by facilitating glycerophosphodiester degradation.

In this study, genetic variation in the CYP19A1 gene, particularly the common rs4646 C allele, was associated with an increased risk of female pattern hair loss, especially in women under 40.

This study found that Sonic Hedgehog secreted by hair follicle transit-amplifying cells is essential for dermal adipogenesis and hair follicle growth by acting on adipocyte precursors.

This article reviews various diagnostic tools for hair disorders, describing methods ranging from invasive to noninvasive, but reports no new research findings or clinical results.

This review discusses the emerging "endocrine phenotype" of COVID-19, highlighting the implications for managing diabetes, obesity, vitamin D deficiency, and other endocrine conditions in affected patients.

This study found that Mentha pulegium essential oil had a stronger protoscolicidal effect against Echinococcus granulosus in vitro than Mentha piperita, showing dose- and time-dependent effects.

This article discusses Kennedy's disease, detailing its genetic cause, symptoms, and diagnostic criteria, but reports no new clinical findings and highlights a lack of causal therapy.

This review discusses the role of lamins in development, tissue maintenance, and stress response, and does not report new experimental findings.

In this study, researchers found that while the SNP rs6152 is strongly associated with androgenetic alopecia, the GGN triplet repeat is not, suggesting the causative variant is likely a non-coding one.

This review discusses the potential role of Wnt signaling in aging-related heart diseases and reports no clinical results.

This study found that nanostructured lipid carriers with more soybean phosphatidylcholine provided better skin retention and follicular targeting for diphencyprone compared to other formulations and controls.

This study found that cyclosporin A treatment enhances hair growth in mice by inhibiting calcineurin-NFAT1 activity, which alters keratinocyte differentiation and apoptosis-related gene expression in hair follicles.

In this study, enteroendocrine cells were shown to coordinate intestinal stem cell migration towards a wound in Drosophila by releasing a ligand that activates non-canonical Wnt signaling, aiding efficient tissue repair.

This review discusses the origins of skin and esophageal cancers and reports no clinical results; it emphasizes the role of cyclooxygenase-2 in tumorigenesis and differentiation.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia is the leading cause of hair loss in adolescents and may indicate endocrine disorders, emphasizing the need for accurate diagnosis.

This review discusses the cutaneous manifestations associated with HIV infection, highlighting that these skin conditions often present atypically and are more severe compared to those in non-HIV-infected individuals; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that Transcutol-containing vesicles improved the delivery of minoxidil to deeper skin layers in vitro but did not facilitate its permeation through the skin.

Genes and hormones cause hair loss, with four genes contributing equally.

This review highlights recent insights into how IL-15 influences T cell responses and contributes to immunopathogenesis in various diseases, suggesting its crucial role in TCR-independent activation and potential in optimizing therapeutic strategies.

This study reported that alopecia is a common but often underreported side effect of endocrine-based cancer therapies, with tamoxifen showing the highest incidence of hair loss among analyzed treatments.

In this review, researchers explored the roles of vitamins A, B3, C, D, and E in skin immunity, highlighting their potential as therapeutics for skin diseases due to their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties.

Azathioprine's effectiveness and safety require careful monitoring and more research, especially regarding its use with corticosteroids and the role of TPMT status in patients.

This study suggests that age-related changes in skin elasticity reduce its stability against wrinkling, and anti-aging strategies should focus on addressing elastic mismatches between skin layers.

This review summarizes the current understanding of microRNAs in skin biology, highlighting their roles in processes like wound-healing and aging, without presenting any new experimental results.

This review provides practical guidelines for managing psychodermatologic disorders and concludes that psychopharmacologic agents offer a useful option for treatment, considering the underlying psychopathologic condition.

The authors describe drug repurposing as a promising strategy for finding new uses for existing drugs, noting it is efficient, cost-effective, and poses lower risks than traditional drug discovery processes, potentially aiding in the treatment of rare and difficult-to-treat diseases.

This review discusses the cardiovascular risks associated with anabolic-androgenic steroid use and reports that, despite known toxic effects, further research is needed to clarify the causality of these risks.

This study found that in dermatological patients, poorer quality of life was associated with being younger, single, having a low income, one skin disease, and longer duration of the condition.

This article discusses the application and considerations of bariatric surgery for adolescents with severe obesity, highlighting the need for specialized programs but reporting no new clinical results.
