Abstract: Compositions and methods are disclosed herein for inducing (up-regulating) the expression of sulfotransferases in the hair follicles, e.g., the scalp. Increasing sulfotransferase is beneficial for metabolizing pro-drugs that require sulfonation to be activated, e.g., minoxidil sulfate is the active metabolite of minoxidil. A method for combining the compositions described herein with topical minoxidil to enhance minoxidil treatment for androgenetic alopecia is described. Additional methods and compositions include the use of retinoid X receptor agonists, retinoic acid receptor agonists, and nuclear receptor agonists in an RXR-NR heterodimer. Additional methods and compositions include the use of a topical solution containing an alkalinizing agent or an alkalinizing agent used with a penetration enhancer for up-regulating the sulfonating capacity of hair bearing skin, hair follicles, and/or keratinocyte cells.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described for prediction of a patient's response to a drug for treating androgenetic skin disorders such as alopecia, acne, and hirsutism. For a given drug such as anti-androgens and 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors, and a given dosage, the likely responsiveness of that drug and dosage may be determined, for example, by generating a set of patient scores based on a patient profile, including genetic sample information, and comparing that scores to a set of reference information.

Abstract: The present invention discloses compositions, methods, and systems of treating female sexual dysfunction by stimulating the contraction of the smooth muscle of the nipple. The smooth muscle in the nipple expresses trace amine associated receptors and thus can be contracted through a class of trace amine associated receptor agonists such as octopamine or tyramine, but any agent that promotes contraction of smooth muscle can be considered for the methods and compositions described herein. The contraction of the smooth muscle erects the nipple and increases female sexual arousal. The smooth muscle stimulatory compound can be formulated in a solution, foam, ointment, gel, spray, lotion, powder, topical cream, emulsion, slow release capsule or any similar method, compound, or delivery vehicle including a pre-wetted gauze or cotton pad. Additionally, the disclosed composition can be used to improve the quality of a sexual experience, e.g.

Finally, systems, methods, and kits for treating, preventing, and diagnosing SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) are presented.

Abstract: Compositions and methods are disclosed herein for treating female pattern hair loss with a topical composition used to remove minoxidil from the hairs. A method for diagnosing subjects in need of a topical composition used to remove minoxidil from the hair treatment and guiding the application of a topical composition used to remove minoxidil from the hair treatment are also described.
