research Differential expression of steroid 5α-reductase isozymes and association with disease severity and angiogenic genes predict their biological role in prostate cancer
SRD5A1 is crucial in advanced prostate cancer, and blocking both SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 is more effective than targeting SRD5A2 alone.
research Exposure to non-ionizing electromagnetic fields emitted from mobile phones induced DNA damage in human ear canal hair follicle cells
Mobile phone radiation may cause DNA damage in human ear hair follicle cells.
research Effect of Ficus carica leaf extract on the gene expression of selected factors in HaCaT cells
Ficus carica leaf extract may help treat skin disorders by reducing inflammation and androgen effects in skin cells.
research Cashmere growth control in Liaoning cashmere goat by ovarian carcinoma immunoreactive antigen-like protein 2 and decorin genes
OCIAD2 and DCN genes affect hair growth in goats by having opposite effects on a growth signaling pathway and inhibiting each other.
research Effects of FGF5-mediated LncRNA on the skin fibroblast growth of Liaoning Cashmere goats
FGF-5 promotes Cashmere goat hair growth by increasing keratin genes and reducing certain LncRNA and target genes.
research Bio-Catalytic Action of Pseudomonas DL17 on Environmental Contaminant Sunset Yellow FCF
Pseudomonas DL17 can completely break down the harmful dye Sunset Yellow FCF in 48 hours.
research Marked Suppression of Dihydrotestosterone in Men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia by Dutasteride, a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor

research Mucosal TLR5 activation controls healthspan and longevity
Activating TLR5 in the gut can extend lifespan and improve health in aged mice.
research Efficacy of 5% topical minoxidil versus 5 mg oral biotin versus topical minoxidil and oral biotin on hair growth in men: randomized, crossover, clinical trial
Using both minoxidil and biotin together increased hair growth more than using either one alone.
research Screening and Identification of LncRNAs Related to Villus Growth of Liaoning Cashmere Goats and Their Effects on Growth after FGF5 Treatment
Certain long non-coding RNAs in cashmere goats affect hair growth when treated with a specific growth factor.
research A 20-year retrospective clinicopathologic study on melanoma in Singapore
Bleach baths with 0.005% hypochlorite help manage atopic dermatitis by affecting skin cells and reducing itchiness.
research Novel agents for the treatment of alopecia
New treatments for hair loss show promise, especially finasteride for men and a stronger minoxidil formula.
research A high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry assay of the androgenic neurosteroid 3α-androstanediol (5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol) in plasma
Testosterone increases 3α-androstanediol levels, which can be blocked by finasteride.
research Invalidation of a commercially available human 5α-dihydrotestosterone immunoassay
The DHT immunoassay is unreliable due to high cross-reactivity with testosterone.
research PNU 157706, a novel dual type I and II5α-reductase inhibitor
PNU 157706 is a more effective treatment than finasteride for conditions caused by DHT, like enlarged prostate and hair loss.
