The conclusion is that using drugs to block the TOR pathway might slow aging and prevent age-related diseases.
research Metabolic features of the reproductive phenotypes of polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with the NIH type of PCOS have more obesity and higher risk of diabetes and heart disease than those with other types of PCOS.
research Anti-TNF antibody-induced psoriasiform skin lesions in patients with inflammatory bowel disease are characterised by interferon-γ-expressing Th1 cells and IL-17A/IL-22-expressing Th17 cells and respond to anti-IL-12/IL-23 antibody treatment
Anti-IL-12/IL-23 antibody therapy effectively treats psoriasiform skin lesions in IBD patients.
research The Rotterdam Study: 2014 objectives and design update
The Rotterdam Study aims to understand disease causes in the elderly and has found new risk factors and genetic influences on various conditions.
research Selective follicular targeting by modification of the particle sizes
Medium-sized particles penetrate hair follicles better than smaller or larger ones, which could improve delivery of skin treatments.
research Comparative regenerative mechanisms across different mammalian tissues
Understanding different species' regeneration can improve mammalian healing.
research Interrelation of immunity and tissue repair or regeneration
The immune system plays a key role in tissue repair, affecting both healing quality and regenerative ability.
research The pathophysiology of polycystic ovary syndrome
Insulin resistance is a key factor in polycystic ovary syndrome, but genetics may also contribute.
research Neurosteroidogenesis Is Required for the Physiological Response to Stress: Role of Neurosteroid-Sensitive GABAAReceptors
Neurosteroids are crucial for stress response, and targeting specific receptors may help treat certain disorders.
research The Rotterdam Study: 2012 objectives and design update
The Rotterdam Study updated its design and objectives in 2012, providing insights into various diseases in the elderly, including skin cancer, bone health, liver disease, neurological and psychiatric conditions, and respiratory issues.

Creating stronger blockers for skin enzymes might lead to better treatment for conditions like acne and excessive hair growth.
research Development of polycystic ovary syndrome: involvement of genetic and environmental factors
PCOS is caused by both genetics and environmental factors like diet and obesity.
research Side effects of androgen deprivation therapy: monitoring and minimizing toxicity
Androgen deprivation therapy for prostate cancer can cause sexual, physical, and psychological side effects, and doctors should manage these carefully.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Insulin Resistance, and Obesity: Navigating the Pathophysiologic Labyrinth
Insulin resistance and obesity are key factors in the development and worsening of polycystic ovary syndrome, and lifestyle changes are important for managing it.
research The Rotterdam Study: 2010 objectives and design update
The Rotterdam Study aims to understand various diseases in older adults.
research A phase IIA randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to study the efficacy and safety of the selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM), MK-0773 in female participants with sarcopenia
MK-0773 safely increased muscle mass but did not improve muscle strength or function in elderly women with sarcopenia.
research Follicular transport route – Research progress and future perspectives
Hair follicles help absorb and store topical compounds, aiding targeted drug delivery.
research Dermal β-catenin activity in response to epidermal Wnt ligands is required for fibroblast proliferation and hair follicle initiation
Skin needs dermal β-catenin activity for hair growth and skin cell multiplication.
research Androgen Receptor Antagonists (Antiandrogens) Structure-Activity Relationships
Antiandrogens like flutamide are effective in treating conditions like prostate cancer and hair loss, but there's a need for more potent versions. Understanding their structure can help develop better treatments.
research Metformin: an old medication of new fashion: evolving new molecular mechanisms and clinical implications in polycystic ovary syndrome
Metformin helps manage polycystic ovary syndrome by improving insulin resistance and ovulation, but more research is needed on its full effects.
