Caffeine can boost health, prevent diseases, and improve performance, with new methods enhancing its benefits.
research Treatment of Tourette’s Syndrome With Finasteride
Finasteride may effectively reduce Tourette's syndrome symptoms and improve life quality.
research Anabolic effects of testosterone are preserved during inhibition of 5α-reductase
Testosterone can build muscle and bone without enlarging the prostate when a specific enzyme is blocked.
research Therapeutic strategies for treating hair loss
The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.
research In situ detection of retinoid-X receptor expression in normal and psoriatic human skin
RXR-alpha is strongly expressed in both normal and psoriatic skin and may help in skin cell differentiation and hair growth.
research 5α-Reductase activity in the human hair follicle concentrates in the dermal papilla
The enzyme that changes testosterone to a stronger form is mostly found in the part of the hair follicle called the dermal papilla.
research Hair loss and herbs for treatment
Herbs can potentially treat hair loss by inhibiting a key enzyme and promoting hair growth, and deficiencies in zinc, biotin, and iron are linked to hair loss.
research Reduced levels of 5-α reductase 2 in adult prostate tissue and implications for BPH therapy
Some men's prostate tissues have low enzyme levels due to genetic changes, possibly affecting treatment for prostate enlargement.
research Onset of lichen planopilaris during treatment with etanercept
Etanercept may cause lichen planopilaris, so doctors should be cautious.
research Current management strategies for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma
The document concludes that treatment for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma should be customized to each patient's disease stage, balancing benefits and side effects, with no cure but many patients living long lives.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia: An update on the hypothesis of pathogenesis and treatment
The document concluded that more research is needed to find the best treatment for Frontal fibrosing alopecia.
research Male pattern baldness and the risk of prostate cancer
Men who experienced baldness at age 20 may have double the risk of getting prostate cancer.
research 17β-Estradiol Inhibits Wound Healing in Male Mice via Estrogen Receptor-α
17β-Estradiol slows wound healing in male mice through estrogen receptor-α.
research Medical therapy for frontal fibrosing alopecia: A review and clinical approach
Some treatments like intralesional steroids and 5α-reductase inhibitors are effective for frontal fibrosing alopecia, but more research is needed.
research Treatment of male rats with finasteride, an inhibitor of 5alpha-reductase enzyme, induces long-lasting effects on depressive-like behavior, hippocampal neurogenesis, neuroinflammation and gut microbiota composition
Finasteride treatment in male rats causes long-lasting effects on depression-like behavior, brain cell growth, inflammation, and gut bacteria composition.
research Inhibition of Rat 5α-Reductase Activity and Testosterone-Induced Sebum Synthesis in Hamster Sebocytes by an Extract ofQuercus acutissimaCortex
An extract from Quercus acutissima bark was found to reduce sebum production and block an enzyme linked to acne.
research Update on hidradenitis suppurativa: connecting the tracts
The document concludes that Hidradenitis suppurativa is often underdiagnosed, lacks definitive treatment, and requires better awareness and management strategies.
research Identification of Anabolic Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators with Reduced Activities in Reproductive Tissues and Sebaceous Glands
Two new compounds were found to build bone and muscle without affecting reproductive organs and skin oil glands.
research Biosynthesis of Dihydrotestosterone by a Pathway that Does Not Require Testosterone as an Intermediate in the SZ95 Sebaceous Gland Cell Line
Dihydrotestosterone can be made from dehydroepiandrosterone in skin cells without needing testosterone.
research Mapping the molecular and structural specialization of the skin basement membrane for inter-tissue interactions
The skin's basement membrane has specialized structures and molecules for different tissue interactions, important for hair growth and attachment.
research Androgen Deprivation Therapy in Prostate Cancer: Focusing on Sexual Side Effects
Androgen Deprivation Therapy for prostate cancer often reduces sexual function but intermittent therapy may be more tolerable.
research Epitestosterone—an endogenous antiandrogen?
