Neurosteroids are crucial for stress response, and targeting specific receptors may help treat certain disorders.
research Sex differences in the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis’ response to stress: an important role for gonadal hormones
Male and female bodies respond differently to stress, influenced by hormones and development stages, with implications for stress-related diseases.
research Androgens Protect against Apolipoprotein E4-Induced Cognitive Deficits
Androgens can help prevent memory problems caused by apoE4.
research Historical and Current Adenosine Receptor Agonists in Preclinical and Clinical Development
The document concludes that adenosine receptor agonists have potential for treating various conditions, but only a few are approved due to challenges like side effects and the need for selective activation.
research An Open-Label Pilot Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Tofacitinib in Moderate to Severe Patch-Type Alopecia Areata, Totalis, and Universalis
Tofacitinib may help treat severe hair loss, but more research is needed.
research The Distribution of Estrogen Receptor β Is Distinct to That of Estrogen Receptor α and the Androgen Receptor in Human Skin and the Pilosebaceous Unit
Estrogen Receptor ß (ERß) is the main hormone controller in human skin and hair follicles, not Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) or the Androgen Receptor (AR).
research Molecular basis of androgenetic alopecia: From androgen to paracrine mediators through dermal papilla
Male pattern baldness involves hormones and cell signals affecting hair growth.
research Androgens and androgen receptor action in skin and hair follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Alopecia Areata: a Comprehensive Review of Pathogenesis and Management
