research Characteristics of Men Who Report Persistent Sexual Symptoms After Finasteride Use for Hair Loss
Finasteride for hair loss may cause persistent sexual symptoms, depression, anxiety, and lower quality of life.
research RANK as a therapeutic target in cancer
RANK is a key target in breast cancer treatment due to its role in tumor growth and bone metastasis.
research Hyperandrogenism in polycystic ovarian syndrome and role of CYP gene variants: a review
Certain gene variants may contribute to high androgen levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Expression and roles of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein in ‘non-classical’, extra-adrenal and extra-gonadal cells and tissues
The protein StAR is found in 17 different organs and can affect hair loss and brain functions, but its full role is not yet fully understood.
research Wnt signaling: the good and the bad
Wnt signaling is important for development and cell regulation but can cause diseases like cancer when not working properly.
research Modulatory role of vitamins A, B3, C, D, and E on skin health, immunity, microbiome, and diseases
Vitamins A, B3, C, D, and E can improve skin health and immunity.
research Androgens modify Wnt agonists/antagonists expression balance in dermal papilla cells preventing hair follicle stem cell differentiation in androgenetic alopecia
Androgens prevent hair growth by changing Wnt signals in cells.
research Eph/ephrin signaling in epidermal differentiation and disease
Eph/ephrin signaling is important for skin cell behavior and could be targeted to treat skin diseases.
research Trypanocidal Effect of Isotretinoin through the Inhibition of Polyamine and Amino Acid Transporters in Trypanosoma cruzi
Isotretinoin shows promise as a treatment for Chagas disease by effectively inhibiting key transporters in the parasite.
research Keratin network modifications lead to the mechanical stiffening of the hair follicle fiber
Changes in keratin make hair follicles stiffer.
research Role of insulin resistance and diet in acne
Eating high glycemic foods and drinking milk may worsen acne by increasing insulin and IGF-1 levels.
research Hair growth-promoting effect of Geranium sibiricum extract in human dermal papilla cells and C57BL/6 mice
Geranium sibiricum extract helps hair grow and is more effective than minoxidil but can be toxic in high concentrations.
research Circulatory Changes in Alopecia
The document suggests that the traditional understanding of hair growth cycles and alopecia may be inaccurate and that blood supply plays a significant role in hair growth and loss.
research Dihydrotestosterone inhibits hair growth in mice by inhibiting insulin-like growth factor-I production in dermal papillae
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) stops hair growth in mice by lowering a growth factor important for hair.
research New steps forward in the neuroactive steroid field
Neuroactive steroids could become safe, effective treatments with more understanding of their complex brain actions and metabolism.
