This review discusses the challenges in measuring testosterone for assessing androgen excess in women and emphasizes the importance of quality control in laboratory methods, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses treatments for female acne, highlighting the effectiveness of low-dose oral contraceptives and noting their similar side effects to placebo; it reports no new clinical results.

Method accurately measures finasteride in tablets using finasteride-BSA interaction.

This study identified a genetic locus associated with coat type in domestic dogs, showing certain variants linked to single-coated breeds and suggesting potential regulatory roles.

This study observed that direct exposure to androgens in Western clawed frogs differentially affects thyroid receptor and deiodinase gene expression in male and female tissues, offering insight into sex-specific metabolic pathway activation.

Light and temperature affect the daily skin function rhythms in hairless rats, with temperature influencing water loss but not skin hydration.

This study found that lncRNA-599547 positively regulates the expression of the Wnt10b gene by interacting with miR-15b-5p, enhancing the inductive property of dermal papilla cells in cashmere goats.

This study identified novel 4-Amino-2H-benzo[h]chromen-2-one analogs as potent androgen receptor antagonists that show strong antiproliferative activity against prostate cancer cells, suggesting them as potential lead compounds for therapy development.

This study suggests that 5-ADIOL-S may contribute to the synthesis of potent androgens in peripheral tissues, and 3 alpha-DIOL-S could be a marker of androgen metabolism in various female patient groups.

This study analyzed the affinity, stability, and pharmacokinetics of compounds from Sansevieria trifasciata, reporting that three compounds showed promising molecular docking results against the androgen receptor and satisfactory pharmacokinetic profiles, similar to minoxidil, in an in-silico setting.

In this study, researchers observed that a significant number of women in Eket, Nigeria, have low testosterone levels, while a subset with high free testosterone may have polycystic ovary syndrome.

This study found that 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane penetrates hair fibers and improves the mechanical resistance of dry hair, addressing the needs for increased body in fine hair.

This study found that treatment with a synthesized autophagy inducer improved skin barrier function and hair damage in dogs with atopic dermatitis or hyperadrenocorticism by reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines.

This article reviews the role of androgens and oral contraceptives in acne pathogenesis and management but presents no new clinical results.

This research examined krill oil's effects on benign prostatic hyperplasia and found that it inhibited the growth of prostate cells in vitro and reduced prostate size and weight in a BPH rat model, suggesting potential as a prophylactic or therapeutic agent for BPH.

This study found that plasma protein binding significantly contributes to the shifts in glucocorticosteroid concentration ratios among blood, saliva, and hair, challenging prior assumptions about enzyme inactivation as the main factor.

This article reviews EU cosmetic product claim regulations and highlights increased harmonization and enforcement while reporting no new results.

This review explores the potential (neuro-)endocrine influences on hair follicle epithelial stem cell biology and emphasizes the need for more systematic research, but it provides no new empirical results.

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.

In this study, researchers reported that both progestin-only injectable contraceptives, DMPA-IM and NET-EN, significantly decreased serum testosterone and SHBG levels among HIV-negative women in South Africa, yet this did not explain prior findings of no reduction in risky sexual behavior or sexual function.

In this study, the bending stiffness of human hair was linked to the varying proportions of para-like versus ortho-like cortical cells within the hair fiber.

This study suggests that hair loss disorders like Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis may result from mutations that disrupt post-transcriptional regulation of HR protein expression by PCPB2 interacting with Hr mRNA.

This study found that free testosterone levels were 29% higher with the levonorgestrel implant than with the DMPA injection, which may impact sexual function, mood, and side effects like acne.

This study investigated various proteins as eco-friendly hair perming agents for Asian hair and found that bovine serum albumin and keratin achieved perming results comparable to commercial products, while also increasing hair moisture, indicating a protective effect during heat styling.

This study found that dietary supplementation with collagen, chondroitin sulfate, low-molecular weight hyaluronic acid, Pycnogenol®, and coenzyme Q10 significantly improved skin hydration, elasticity, nail hardness, and hair condition in patients with age-related dermatological changes after 12 weeks.

This study found that human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells promoted hair growth by advancing anagen onset and increasing hair follicle regeneration in an in vivo model.

This study found that proteins secreted by early-passage dermal papilla cells, including SDF1, MMP3, biglycan, and LTBP1, may play significant roles in hair follicle regeneration.

In this mouse study, hair growth defects associated with the Gk5 null allele were partially alleviated by simvastatin treatment, suggesting GK5 plays a key role in skin-specific cholesterol regulation.

This study found that keratinocyte stem/progenitor cell-conditioned medium significantly enhanced hair growth in mice and increased the proliferation of human hair follicle cells.

This study found that a shampoo containing quaternized wheat protein hydrolysate can effectively improve hair recovery by smoothing and compacting damaged hair surfaces, thanks to modifications that enhance protein adherence and disulfide bond formation at pH levels typical in hair care products.
