research Biochemical and Structural Characteristics, Gene Regulation, Physiological, Pathological and Clinical Features of Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase as a Multifunctional Lipocalin
Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L-PGDS) is a protein that plays many roles in the body, including sleep regulation, pain management, food intake, and protection against harmful substances. It also affects fat metabolism, glucose intolerance, cell maturation, and is involved in various diseases like diabetes, cancer, and arthritis. It can influence sex organ development and embryonic cell differentiation, and its levels can be used as a diagnostic marker for certain conditions.

High androgen levels cause skin issues in PCOS, affecting quality of life.
research The Search for the Causes of Common Hyperandrogenism, 1965 to Circa 2015
Significant progress was made in understanding androgen excess disorders, but much is still unknown.
research Development of prostate cancer in a patient with primary hypogonadism: intratumoural steroidogenesis in prostate cancer tissues
Prostate cancer can progress even with low testosterone due to internal hormone production in the tumor.
research The Role of Probiotics and Synbiotics on Hirsutism
Probiotics and synbiotics might help manage hirsutism by improving insulin resistance.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and the Potential for Nanomaterial-Based Drug Delivery in Therapy of This Disease
Nanomaterials could improve PCOS treatment by delivering drugs more effectively with fewer side effects.
research Diagnosis, Pathogenesis and Management of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Lifestyle changes and insulin-sensitizing drugs are effective for managing PCOS.
research Immunological and Metabolic Causes of Infertility in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
PCOS causes infertility mainly due to hormonal imbalances, insulin resistance, and chronic inflammation.
research Steroidogenic Factor-1 Lineage Origin of Skin Lesions in Carney Complex Syndrome
Skin lesions in Carney Complex are caused by a gene change in some skin cells that leads to increased pigmentation and may lead to tumors.
research Pathophysiology and Nutritional Approaches in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): A Comprehensive Review
Eating a Mediterranean diet and taking certain supplements may improve symptoms of PCOS.
research The Implication of Mechanistic Approaches and the Role of the Microbiome in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): A Review
Changes in gut bacteria can contribute to the development of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), affecting metabolism, immunity, and causing inflammation. Treatments may involve adjusting these factors.
research Abstracts from the 4th Annual Student Medical Summit
The document concludes that more research is needed to reduce frequent hospital visits, addiction medicine education improves with specific training, early breast cancer surgery findings are emerging, nipple smears are not very accurate, surgery for older melanoma patients doesn't extend life, a genetic condition in infants can often be treated with one drug, doctors are inconsistent with blood clot medication, a certain gene may protect against cell damage, muscle gene overexpression affects many other genes, and some mitochondrial genes are less active in mice with tumors.
research The Impact of Metformin on Plasma Prolactin Levels in Antipsychotics‐Treated Men With Hyperprolactinemia and Early‐Onset Androgenic Alopecia
Metformin lowers prolactin in men with normal hair but not in those with early hair loss.
research The Biology and Genomics of Human Hair Follicles: A Focus on Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in Androgenetic Alopecia is caused by genetics, aging, and lifestyle, leading to hair follicle shrinkage and related health risks.
research Non‐biologic immunosuppressive drugs for inflammatory and autoimmune skin diseases
Non-biologic immunosuppressive drugs are crucial for treating autoimmune and chronic inflammatory skin diseases.
