research Inhibitory effects of the ATP-sensitive potassium channel openers cromakalim, pinacidil and minoxidil on the carbachol–response curve in porcine detrusor muscle
Certain drugs can reduce bladder muscle contractions, potentially helping treat bladder diseases.
research Dermatological medications and local therapeutics
Use some skin medications with caution during pregnancy; avoid strong steroids, certain eczema treatments, and systemic retinoids, but many topical treatments and nasal sprays are safe.
research 1409 Temporary cell cycle arrest by ALRN-6924: A novel, p53-targeting strategy to protect human scalp hair follicles against cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia
ALRN-6924 can protect hair follicles from chemotherapy damage by temporarily stopping cell division.
research Pre‐ and Paraneoplastic Syndromes
Some skin conditions in pets can signal cancer or may develop into cancer, and monitoring or treating these can help detect or manage the disease.
research Impact of a topical lotion, CG428, on permanent chemotherapy-induced alopecia in breast cancer survivors: a pilot randomized double-blind controlled clinical trial (VOLUME RCT)
The lotion CG428 did not show effectiveness in treating permanent hair loss in breast cancer survivors.
research Cytoprotective effects of paeoniflorin are associated with translocator protein 18 kDa
Paeoniflorin protects brain cells by involving a specific protein and neurosteroids.
research 599 PPARg signaling modulation protects from hair follicle bulge stem cell damage and cyclophosphamide-induced hair follicle cytotoxicity
PPARγ signaling modulation can protect hair follicle stem cells from chemotherapy-induced damage.
research Phenytoin or Spironolactone Intervention Counteracts 5-Fluorouracil–Induced Alopecia in Rats by Suppressing Oxidative Stress and Inflammation While Promoting Collagen Synthesis
Phenytoin and spironolactone help prevent hair loss from chemotherapy by reducing stress and inflammation.
research Referee report. For: Phytochemicals With Anti 5-alpha-reductase Activity: A Prospective For Prostate Cancer Treatment [version 3; peer review: 2 approved]
Phytochemicals may offer safer alternatives to synthetic drugs for prostate cancer treatment.
research Synthesis of novel andostane-N-cyclohexyl-17-carboxamides, and their effect on the 5α-reductase isoform 2, the androgen receptor, and androgen-dependent glands
New compounds were made and tested, with compound 6 showing potential for treating prostate-related diseases.
research Finasteride/spironolactone
research 874 Elevated expression of osteopontin splice variants in nonmelanoma skin cancer compared to normal skin and adult keratinocytes
Nonmelanoma skin cancers have higher levels of certain osteopontin variants than normal skin.
research Cyclosporine
Nonimmunosuppressive cyclosporines might treat skin diseases by affecting cell growth.
research Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ signalling protects hair follicle stem cells from chemotherapy-induced apoptosis and epithelial–mesenchymal transition
Activating PPAR-γ signalling can protect hair follicle stem cells from damage caused by chemotherapy.
research Clinical Snippets
Increased pigmentation may protect skin from UVB, new targets for skin disease treatments were identified, sunscreen ingredients don't affect hormones, TNF-α inhibitors may help diabetic wounds, and certain treatments could prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss.
research Observational Study of Paclitaxel-Carboplatin versus Pemetrexed-Carboplatin for Advanced Pulmonary Adenocarcinoma at Single-Centre in Indonesia
Both treatments are similarly effective, but paclitaxel-carboplatin is cheaper and has more severe side effects.
research Unusual Anti-Angiogenic Effect of Combined Hormonal Blockade
