research Targeting neurosteroid synthesis as a therapy for schizophrenia-related alterations induced by early psychosocial stress
A drug improved schizophrenia-like symptoms in stressed rats by changing brain steroid levels.
research Expression Profiles of Reproduction- and Thyroid Hormone-Related Transcripts in the Brains of Chemically-Induced Intersex Frogs
Intersex frogs have different brain gene activity related to sex and thyroid hormones.
research Alterations in androgen conjugate levels in women and men with alopecia
People with hair loss may have different levels of certain hormones due to changes in hormone processing.
research Hypervitaminosis A in a Patient With Alopecia Receiving Renal Dialysis
Patients with renal disease may develop vitamin A toxicity even with low-dose supplements.
research Acne: Transient Arrest in the Homeostatic Host–Microbiota Dialog?
Acne is a temporary skin imbalance during puberty that often resolves on its own.
research Ligand‐independent epidermal growth factor receptor hyperactivation increases sebaceous gland size and sebum secretion in mice
EGFR hyperactivation increases sebaceous gland size and sebum production in mice.
research Effect of antioxidant supplementation on digestive enzymes in radiation induced intestinal damage in rats
Antioxidant vitamins, especially vitamin E, help reduce radiation-induced intestinal damage.
research Analysis of the microRNA expression profile of normal human dermal papilla cells treated with 5α-dihydrotestosterone
DHT affects hair follicle cells by changing microRNA levels, leading to less cell growth and more cell death.
research Metabolism of androgens by isolated human hair follicles
Beard hair follicles convert testosterone to 5α-dihydrotestosterone most intensively.
research A Monoallelic Two-Hit Mechanism in PLCD1 Explains the Genetic Pathogenesis of Hereditary Trichilemmal Cyst Formation
A specific gene change plus an additional mutation in the same gene cause hereditary trichilemmal cysts.
research The effect of cilostazol, a phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) inhibitor, on human hair growth with the dual promoting mechanisms
Cilostazol helps hair grow by making hair root cells grow faster and changing growth factor levels.
research Genetic variants in pachyonychia congenita-associated keratins increase susceptibility to tooth decay
Certain genetic variants in keratins increase the risk of tooth decay.
research The Role of Non-Aromatizable Testosterone Metabolite in Metabolic Pathways
Normal levels of DHT can reduce belly fat and increase muscle, but too much can lead to hair loss, prostate issues, and possibly heart disease.
research The neurosteroid environment in the hippocampus exerts bi-directional effects on seizure susceptibility in mice
Neurosteroids in the brain can increase or decrease seizure risk in mice.
research Scleroderma and L-tryptophan: A possible explanation of the eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome
Taking L-tryptophan supplements might cause a condition similar to scleroderma in some people, which can get better after stopping the supplement and starting corticosteroid therapy.
research Liposomes in cancer therapy
Liposomes show promise in cancer treatment by delivering drugs with less toxicity and improved effectiveness.
research Integrative analysis of rare copy number variants and gene expression data in alopecia areata implicates an aetiological role for autophagy
The research suggests that autophagy-related genes might play a role in causing alopecia areata.
research Finasteride, not tamsulosin, increases severity of erectile dysfunction and decreases testosterone levels in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia
Finasteride worsens erectile dysfunction and lowers testosterone in men with enlarged prostates, unlike tamsulosin.
research Histochemical evidence of mucosubstances in the metaplastic epidermis and hair follicles produced in vitro in the presence of excess vitamin A
Excess vitamin A changes skin and hair follicle development and affects polysaccharide distribution.
research Protective effect of Korean Red Ginseng against chemotherapeutic drug-induced premature catagen development assessed with human hair follicle organ culture model
Korean Red Ginseng may protect against hair loss caused by chemotherapy.
research [Psychological consequences of chronic hair diseases].
Chronic hair diseases can severely affect mental health and self-confidence.
research COVID-19 and andrology: Recommendations of the French-speaking society of andrology (Société d’Andrologie de langue Française SALF)
Wait 3 months after COVID-19 before trying assisted reproduction and further research is needed on COVID-19's effects on male hormones and fertility.
research Physiopathological role of the enzymatic complex 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase in the generation of progesterone and testosterone neuroactive metabolites
The enzymes 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase help create brain-active substances from progesterone and testosterone, which could be used for treatment, but more research is needed to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
research Identification of ultraviolet B radiation-induced microRNAs in normal human dermal papilla cells
UVB radiation changes the levels of certain microRNAs in skin cells, which may affect cell survival and hair growth.
research Neonatal neurosteroid levels are determinant in shaping adult prepulse inhibition response to hippocampal allopregnanolone in rats
Neonatal neurosteroid levels affect adult brain function and behavior.
