Finasteride use during early pregnancy may cause limb deformities in babies.

In this study, forming inclusion complexes of Finasteride and poly (ethylene glycol) resulted in significantly improved solubility and dissolution rates, suggesting a promising new solid form for enhanced drug release.

In this study, researchers used tissue clearing techniques on human skin and scar tissue for the first time to render them optically transparent, with the aim of revealing atypical structures and improving protocols for observing scar tissue changes.

In this study, patients with androgenetic alopecia showed no difference in insulin resistance or prevalence of metabolic syndrome but had higher cardiovascular risk due to increased inflammatory markers and lipoprotein(a) levels.

This congress summary highlights the COMEF 2023 event, which focused on medical ethics, education, and health through discussions with the theme "Learn, practice, excel," but reports no new research findings.

This study found that testosterone therapy increased bone mineral density in older men with low testosterone, and combining it with finasteride may reduce prostate enlargement associated with testosterone treatment.

This study found that PCOS patients had higher amounts of central abdominal fat compared to weight-matched controls, which was associated with increased insulin resistance.

In this study, minoxidil effectively reduced blood pressure to near normal levels in patients with malignant or accelerated hypertension resistant to conventional treatments, offering a potential alternative to nephrectomy.

This review outlines the various processes activated by the peptide GHK-Cu in tissue remodeling and reports improvements in skin and wound healing but notes a need for further study to fully understand these mechanisms.

This article updates a prior work on pharmacophore modeling and highlights the advances in 3D database searching technologies for drug design, without presenting new research findings.

Minoxidil promotes hair growth in male pattern baldness.

This review discusses the applications and research on fibroblast growth factors, including their use in wound healing, diabetes, and cancer, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review noted that alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease impacting hair follicles and offered insights into its complex pathogenesis involving immune responses, while highlighting ongoing research into new treatments such as Janus kinase inhibitors and other immunomodulatory drugs.

This study suggests that spironolactone-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers could enhance follicular delivery and offer a more localized treatment for androgenic alopecia, potentially reducing systemic side effects.

In this study, ACF sponges with 10% fucoidan significantly promoted wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in rats, showing improved hemostatic and antibacterial performance compared to other formulations.

This article reviews historical reports of skin changes, such as pseudoacanthosis nigricans, associated with cholesterol-lowering drugs like triparanol and nicotinic acid, but presents no new clinical findings.

In this study, jaw wiring led to significant weight loss in patients with severe obesity, but two-thirds regained weight after the wires were removed.

This study examined different polymersome systems for topical finasteride delivery and found that chitosan-decorated C7 polymersomes may enhance skin retention and provide controlled drug release compared to non-decorated systems in laboratory settings.

Minoxidil effectively controls blood pressure in severe cases, but may cause fluid retention and edema.

Hair treatments like bleaching increase friction by exposing tiny pores on the hair surface.

This study observed that 2% minoxidil solution was at least as effective as 3% for increasing hair growth and stabilizing bald areas in men with male pattern baldness.

This study found that the mechanical stiffening of the human hair follicle along the first millimeter is linked to changes in the keratin network architecture and composition during keratinization.

In this study, transgenic male mice over-expressing the androgen receptor in mesenchymal stem cells showed reduced fat mass and improved glucose clearance, suggesting enhanced androgen sensitivity may alter body composition.

Rare earth elements are crucial in medical imaging and cancer treatment.

This study found that fibromodulin significantly reduces scar formation and boosts scar strength in rodent and porcine models, suggesting potential for FMOD-based therapies in cutaneous wound repair.

This study suggests that human keratin fiber matrix has a well-defined nano-scale grainy structure rather than being amorphous, with grain size influenced by chemical treatments, temperature, humidity, and follicle-level factors.

In this study, researchers found that L-cysteine interacted electrostatically with anionic ions on the surface of keratin fibers in human hair, reducing the rate of disulfide bond disconnection at pH 9.0.

In this study, finasteride treatment did not negatively impact bone development or density in male rats, suggesting that DHT deficiency is not harmful to the male rat skeleton.

In this study, a low-methionine diet significantly improved the health and physical traits of cystathionine β-synthase-deficient mice, contrasting with negative effects on mice with partial deficiency.

This article discusses the presentation of chemotherapy-induced anagen effluvium as either diffuse or patterned hair loss and reports no new clinical findings.
