research Side-Effects of Spironolactone Therapy in the Hirsute Woman
Spironolactone can cause side effects like irregular bleeding, but lower doses may reduce these effects and still improve hirsutism.
research Management of Hirsutism
Antiandrogens, particularly flutamide and CPA, are most effective for treating hirsutism, with long-term use needed for best results.
research Expression and roles of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein in ‘non-classical’, extra-adrenal and extra-gonadal cells and tissues
The protein StAR is found in 17 different organs and can affect hair loss and brain functions, but its full role is not yet fully understood.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New steroidal compounds could be effective for treating conditions related to 5α-reductase enzyme activity.
research Azasteroids as inhibitors of testosterone 5α-reductase in mammalian skin
Certain 4-azasteroids are effective at blocking the enzyme that processes testosterone in human skin and could help treat acne, excessive hair growth, and male pattern baldness.
research A comparison of transcriptomic patterns measured in the skin of Chinese fine and coarse wool sheep breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research Evidence Suggesting a Role of Iron in a Mouse Model of Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis
Iron contributes to skin fibrosis in nephrogenic systemic fibrosis.
research Vitamin D activates type A natriuretic peptide receptor gene transcription in inner medullary collecting duct cells
Vitamin D boosts a specific gene activity in kidney cells that could improve heart and kidney function.
research Fibroblast heterogeneity and tertiary lymphoid tissues in the kidney
Different types of fibroblasts play various roles in kidney repair and aging, and may affect chronic kidney disease outcomes.
research The impact of exogenous vitamin D on thyroid autoimmunity in euthyroid men with autoimmune thyroiditis and early-onset androgenic alopecia
Vitamin D may help reduce antibody levels in men with autoimmune thyroiditis and early-onset androgenic alopecia, but has no significant impact on thyroid function.
research The Role of Vimentin in Tissue Repair and Cell Growth
Vimentin is crucial for wound healing, cell growth, and managing immune responses.
research 5 Alpha - Reductase and Metabolic Syndrome in PCOS Patients
A higher testosterone/dihydrotestosterone ratio in PCOS patients may indicate worse metabolic health.
research Comparison of cyproterone acetate plus ethinyl estradiol and finasteride in the treatment of hirsutism
Cyproterone acetate plus ethinyl estradiol is generally more effective in treating hirsutism, but consider side effects and patient characteristics.
research Diagnosis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The definition of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome may change with new research, and careful screening is key for managing the condition.
research How to Diagnose and Treat Medically Women with Excessive Hair
Treating excessive hair in women requires a holistic approach, including medical, aesthetic, and emotional support.
research Clinico-investigative profile of patients of hirsutism in a tertiary level institution
Most hirsutism patients had idiopathic hirsutism or PCOS, with hormonal imbalances and signs like acne and irregular periods.
research Androgen profile in Chinese women with polycystic ovary syndrome in their reproductive years
Chinese women with PCOS have higher androgen levels, which change with age and weight.
research Deep Insight of Design, Mechanism, and Cancer Theranostic Strategy of Nanozymes
Nanozymes show promise for effective and safe cancer treatment.
research Human hair follicles are an extrarenal source and a nonhematopoietic target of erythropoietin
Human hair follicles produce and respond to erythropoietin, helping protect against stress.
research Generation and characterization of rat liver stem cell lines and their engraftment in a rat model of liver failure
Researchers created rat liver stem cells that could help repair liver failure in rats and may be useful for studying human liver diseases.
research Exploring the Drug Repurposing Versatility of Valproic Acid as a Multifunctional Regulator of Innate and Adaptive Immune Cells
Valproic Acid could potentially be used to treat immune-related conditions due to its ability to modify immune cell functions.
research Lymphoid Enhancer-binding Factor-1 (LEF1) Interacts with the DNA-binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor
LEF1 interacts with Vitamin D Receptor, affecting hair follicle regeneration and this could be linked to hair loss conditions.
research Resveratrol derivatives: a patent review (2009 – 2012)
