This article argues that androgen sensitivity could be a key factor in the severity of COVID-19, suggesting that trials with anti-androgen agents may be warranted.

This review examines the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management strategies for non-classic congenital hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, and provides evidence-based recommendations for its treatment and genetic counseling.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have higher global adiposity and increased visceral fat, particularly in the ip and mesenteric depots, compared to women without androgen excess.

This review discusses current experimental approaches for regenerating human hair follicles using tissue engineering and isolated cells, but reports no successful strategies with adult cells yet found.

This review discusses the roles of interferon-γ and PPAR-γ-mediated signalling in scarring alopecia, suggesting these pathways as potential therapeutic targets, but it reports no new empirical results.

This study found that in vivo, a novel microneedle system for valproic acid delivery may improve hair regrowth efficacy by upregulating hair follicle development pathways more effectively than topical application.

This study found that quiescence in hair follicle stem cells acts as a tumor suppression mechanism for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, with Pten activity necessary to maintain this state.

This study identified 63 genetic loci associated with male-pattern baldness, uncovering genes and pathways that may help develop treatments and suggesting its connection to other human conditions.

In this study, finasteride dose-dependently inhibited stress-induced increases in allopregnanolone in rats, while enhancing 20alpha-reduction of progesterone without affecting 3alpha-dihydroprogesterone or 11-deoxycorticosterone levels.

This review discusses the dermatological adverse events from immunosuppressive and anti-TNF therapy in IBD, finding increased risks of non-melanoma skin cancer and other skin conditions, and recommends regular cancer screening.

This study found that ZDHHC13 deficiency in mice is associated with abnormal liver function, lipid metabolism issues, and impaired mitochondrial function, highlighting ZDHHC13's regulatory role in liver metabolism.

This review discusses photothermal agent hybrids in hydrogels for antibacterial action, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis in tissue engineering, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that acute finasteride treatment decreased ethanol intake in male C57BL/6J mice, whereas chronic treatment showed diminished effects, implying compensatory changes in neurosteroid modulation.

This study suggests that activating retinoic acid signalling can inhibit Wnt signalling and induce regression in certain skin tumors, providing potential therapeutic strategies for tumor regression.

This review explores the therapeutic potential of bee venom for treating various skin diseases, discussing its mechanisms and effects but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that transforming growth factor-β1 and CX3CR1 are crucial for recruiting specific macrophages essential for wound-induced hair growth in mice.

This study validated a protocol for inducing surface ectoderm differentiation from human induced pluripotent stem cells and highlighted the role of TGFβ signaling pathways in this process.

This study suggests that higher PDCD4 expression may play a significant role in polycystic ovary syndrome pathogenesis through its association with obesity, insulin resistance, lipid metabolism disorders, and increased granulosa cell apoptosis.

This review discusses the pharmacological properties and physiological regulation of neuroactive steroids, focusing on their varied responses to stress and ethanol in rats, mice, and humans, but it reports no new findings.

In this study, 1% procyanidin B-2 tonic significantly increased the number of total and terminal hairs on the scalp of male participants compared to a placebo after 6 months of use.

This study found that Blimp1+ cells from mice can generate sebaceous gland organoids in vitro, which mimic natural gland traits and may aid in studying acne vulgaris.

This review discusses the use of platelet-rich plasma for facial rejuvenation, acne scarring, and androgenic alopecia and reports positive outcomes but emphasizes the need for standardized preparation and application methods.

This study suggests that canonical BMP signaling, particularly involving Smad1 and Smad5, plays a critical role in hair follicle stem cell regulation and hair morphogenesis, with distinct roles from pSmad8.

This review highlights the potential of natural product-derived compounds, such as flavonoids and alkaloids, to reverse multidrug resistance in tumors, emphasizing their role in regulating signaling pathways, proteins, and genes related to MDR, and aims to guide future research efforts in this area.

This study found that Undariopsis peterseniana extract may promote hair growth by activating specific cellular pathways, suggesting potential for treating alopecia.

This study reported that a magneto-responsive transdermal microneedle system delivered Minoxidil effectively and significantly increased hair density by 800% in mice with androgenetic alopecia after 10 days.

This study found that Ishige sinicola extract increased hair growth and cell proliferation in cultured vibrissa follicles and mice, suggesting potential benefits for treating alopecia through β-catenin activation and 5α-reductase inhibition.

This study reported that a novel liposomal formulation, SP-bFGF-SF-LIP, enhanced bFGF stability and skin permeability, significantly improving hair follicle recovery and wound healing in a mouse model.

In this study, quercitrin was reported to promote hair growth and cell viability in cultured human dermal papilla cells by enhancing cellular energy metabolism and growth factor production via MAPK/CREB signaling.

This review discusses the mechanisms of skin aging, highlighting the roles of stem/progenitor cells, genetic and environmental factors, and suggests potential for cell-based therapies, but reports no new experimental findings.
