Tenofovir alafenamide fumarate is effective and safer for hepatitis B, with fewer side effects than tenofovir disoproxil fumarate.
research Correlation between serum granulysin level and clinical activity in patients with alopecia areata before and after tofacitinib therapy
Higher granulysin levels in the blood are linked to more severe hair loss in alopecia areata patients, and these levels decrease after effective treatment.
research Chronic Toxicity Studies of the Potential Cancer Preventive 2-(Difluoromethyl)-dl-ornithine
Lower dosages of 2-(difluoromethyl)-dl-ornithine might reduce side effects, supporting further research.
research Androgen deprivation therapy may constitute a more effective COVID-19 prophylactic than therapeutic strategy
Androgen deprivation therapy might be better for preventing COVID-19 than treating it.
research Treatment of Tourette’s Syndrome With Finasteride
Finasteride may effectively reduce Tourette's syndrome symptoms and improve life quality.
research Tofacitinib Citrate for the Treatment of Nail Dystrophy Associated With Alopecia Universalis
Tofacitinib citrate improved nail dystrophy and pain in patients with alopecia universalis without causing side effects.
research Specific inhibition of FGF5-induced cell proliferation by RNA aptamers
RNA aptamers can specifically block FGF5-related cell growth, potentially treating related diseases or hair disorders.

5-alpha reductase inhibitors may help protect the brain and gut in Parkinson's disease.
research Minoxidil suppressed mitochondrial depolarization and subsequent neuronal cell death by decreasing intracellular potassium level
Minoxidil may protect the brain from damage by preventing cell death and energy loss.
research A Real-World Study of Steroid-Free Monotherapy with Tofacitinib in Severe and Therapy-Recalcitrant Alopecia Areata, Alopecia Totalis, and Alopecia Universalis Cases: A Retrospective Analysis
Tofacitinib was effective for severe, treatment-resistant hair loss without side effects.
research Anagen effluvium due to azathioprine in a patient with normal thiopurine S-methyltransferase levels: A videodermoscopic analysis
A woman's sudden hair loss was linked to azathioprine use despite normal enzyme levels, and improved after stopping the drug and starting treatment.
research Effects of Restraint Stress and Allopregnanolone Inhibition on Amphetamine Locomotor Sensitivity
Targeting neurosteroids may help prevent drug relapse.
