Reversed sequential therapy with cyproterone acetate was effective for treating women with hirsutism and related conditions.
research Decision letter: Interplay of opposing fate choices stalls oncogenic growth in murine skin epithelium
Skin cells can naturally limit the growth of cancerous changes by balancing cell renewal and differentiation.
research Abstracts
Ablative fractional laser treatment nearly matches the gene reduction effects of topical vismodegib in skin cancer.
research Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ signalling protects hair follicle stem cells from chemotherapy-induced apoptosis and epithelial–mesenchymal transition
Activating PPAR-γ signalling can protect hair follicle stem cells from damage caused by chemotherapy.
research Real-world assessment of ritlecitinib in patients with severe alopecia areata: a 24-week multicentre retrospective study
Ritlecitinib may be more effective for severe alopecia areata than conventional treatments.
research A 3D microtumour system that faithfully represents ovarian cancer minimal residual disease
The study developed a 3D model that closely imitates remaining ovarian cancer after treatment and identified a potential drug targeting resistant cancer cells.
research Incidence and management of cutaneous toxicities associated with cetuximab
Cetuximab often causes skin rashes, and managing these is important for cancer treatment.
research From basal cell carcinoma morphogenesis to the alopecia induced by hedgehog inhibitors: connecting the dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
research New drugs: Iobenguane sulfate
Lifestyle changes are more effective than metformin in reducing type 2 diabetes risk in women with PCOS.
research Deucravacitinib, an oral, selective, allosteric tyrosine kinase 2 inhibitor, in patients with alopecia areata: efficacy and safety results of a phase II, multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial
Deucravacitinib did not significantly improve hair regrowth in alopecia areata patients.
research Non-Steroidal Modulation of the 5-Alpha Reductase Axis: A Dual Therapeutic Strategy for Prostatic Chemoprevention and Androgenetic Alopecia
LX-38 is a safer drug option for treating prostate issues and hair loss without hormonal side effects.
research Deregulated expression of E2F1 induces hyperplasia and cooperates with ras in skin tumor development
Overexpression of E2F1 can lead to skin tumors and disrupt hair growth.
research In Silico Screening of DrugBank Compounds as Potential Inhibitors for Human Steroid 5α-Reductase 2 for Androgen-Related Diseases
Stiripentol shows promise as a potential treatment for androgen-related diseases but needs more testing.
research New Aromatic Esters of Progesterone as Antiandrogens
New progesterone-based compounds can block male hormones.
research 414 A fitst-in-human study of BLZ-100 (tozuleristide) demonstrates tolerability and fluorescence contrast in skin cancer

research [Ovulation inhibition in the treatment of androgenic alopecia in woemn].
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
