Actin and alpha-smooth muscle actin help skin heal in mouse fetuses.
research Inflammation dynamically regulates steroid hormone metabolism and action within macrophages in rheumatoid arthritis
This study investigates the role of steroid metabolism in macrophages within rheumatoid arthritis (RA), revealing that inflammatory macrophages significantly increase the activation of glucocorticoids and androgens, which suppress inflammation. RNA-seq data from RA synovial macrophages showed changes in genes related to steroid metabolism, correlating with disease activity and pain. Key enzymes like 11β-HSD1, SRD5A1, and AKR1C3 were identified as crucial in this process, with 11β-HSD1 playing a novel role in androgen activation. The study highlights that increased glucocorticoid and androgen levels in macrophages and fibroblast-like synoviocytes help reduce inflammation. Additionally, the reduced presence of inactive steroid precursors in postmenopausal women may lead to higher disease incidence and severity.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Hair loss research focused on chemistry for decades because we misunderstood the mechanics of growth.
Hair growth relies on mechanical forces, not just chemicals, with tissue acting like a motor. Minoxidil and finasteride help, but maintaining tissue elasticity and addressing mechanical issues are essential.
community If we can clone a sheep why we can't cure baldness till now
Hair loss treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and stem cell therapies exist, but a complete cure is hindered by genetic complexity and market dynamics. Cloning hair follicles is considered a potential solution, but it's currently not feasible.
community Told my gf I was considering getting back on finasteride
A user considered restarting finasteride for hair loss despite past side effects, which worried their girlfriend. Others suggested alternatives like topical treatments or lower doses and emphasized prioritizing well-being and relationship stability.
community Study: There is 70x Higher Unconjugated DHT in Feces Compared To Blood Levels in Young Adults - Gut Microbiota Manages DHT Recycling and Metabolism
Gut microbiota significantly influences androgen metabolism, impacting hair loss treatments like finasteride. Probiotics, dietary changes, and fecal microbiota transplants may help manage DHT levels and improve hair health.
community New Research- Creatine Increasing Scalp DHT Without Corresponding Serum DHT Increase
Creatine may increase scalp DHT without affecting serum DHT, potentially speeding up male pattern baldness (MPB) for those genetically prone. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.
