research Decision letter: A counter gradient of Activin A and follistatin instructs the timing of hair cell differentiation in the murine cochlea
Activin A promotes ear hair cell development, while follistatin delays it.
research 892 Behavior of the two circulating androgens testosterone and DHEA and their main intracellular metabolites in an androgen-sensitive sebocyte cell line
Testosterone affects androgen receptors and lipid storage in cells, while DHEA does not convert to testosterone or affect these receptors in the same way.
research Hormone Blocking Anticancer Drugs
The document explains how certain drugs block hormones to treat cancers like breast and prostate cancer.
research Modelling androgen synthesis and action during human sexual differentiation
Male sexual differentiation is regulated independently, while female differentiation occurs in an androgenic environment, affecting conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Slow progress in prostate cancer
Finasteride reduces prostate cancer risk but may increase high-grade tumors; new drugs and better diagnosis are in development, but funding and industry commitment are challenges.
research Evaluation of Not-Activated and Activated PRP in Hair Loss Treatment: Role of Growth Factor and Cytokine Concentrations Obtained by Different Collection Systems
PRP treatment improves hair growth, and the device used can affect results, with some being more effective.
research Oral Retinoids in Dermatology
Oral retinoids are effective for severe skin conditions but require careful use due to side effects.
research Endogenous retinoids in the hair follicle and sebaceous gland
Maintaining the right amount of retinoic acid is crucial for healthy hair and skin.
research A Novel Approach for Skin Regeneration by a Potent Bioactive Placental-Loaded Microneedle Patch: Comparative Study of Deer, Goat, and Porcine Placentas
Goat placenta in microneedle patches is effective and safe for skin regeneration.
research Androgen receptor transactivity is potentiated by TGF-β1 through Smad3 but checked by its coactivator Hic-5/ARA55 in balding dermal papilla cells
TGF-β1 increases androgen receptor activity in hair loss, but Hic-5/ARA55 can counter this effect.
research Regional difference in sebum production by androgen susceptibility in human facial skin
The T-zone on the face has more androgen receptors and produces more oil than the U-zone.
research A Comparative Review of Alternative Fucoidan Extraction Techniques from Seaweed
All extraction methods can produce similar quality fucoidan, but a holistic approach is needed for method selection.
research The clock gene brain and muscle Arnt-like protein-1 (BMAL1) is involved in hair growth
A gene called BMAL1 plays a role in controlling hair growth.
research Interaction between estrogens and androgen receptor genes microsatellites, prostate-specific antigen and androgen receptor expressions in breast cancer
Certain gene patterns in breast cancer are linked to how active hormone receptors are and could affect patient survival.
research Polymorphic CAG Repeat Numbers in the Androgen Receptor Gene of Female Pattern Hair Loss in a Han Chinese Population
No significant link between CAG repeat numbers and female pattern hair loss in Han Chinese population.
research Combined oral contraceptives promote androgen receptor and oestrogen receptor alpha upregulation in the female prostate (Skene’s paraurethral glands) of adult gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus)
Birth control pills increase certain receptor activities in female gerbil prostate glands and can lead to prostate changes.
research Is the “Comb Over” Dying? A Mouse Model for Male Pattern Baldness (Androgenic Alopecia)
The mouse model suggests male pattern baldness may be due to an enzyme increasing DHT and higher androgen receptor levels in hair follicles.
research A KRT71 Loss-of-Function Variant Results in Inner Root Sheath Dysplasia and Recessive Congenital Hypotrichosis of Hereford Cattle
A specific genetic change in the KRT71 gene causes a hair loss condition in Hereford cattle.
