research Androgens and Cardiovascular Disease
Male hormones may play a role in the development of heart disease, and more research is needed to understand their effects.
research Epidemiology, diagnosis and management of hirsutism: a consensus statement by the Androgen Excess and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Society
Experts recommend using evidence-based methods to diagnose and treat hirsutism, focusing on symptoms and underlying causes.
research Genetic, hormonal and metabolic aspects of PCOS: an update
The document concludes that insulin resistance is key in PCOS development and early treatment is crucial to prevent complications.
research Timing of expression of the core clock gene Bmal1 influences its effects on aging and survival
The timing of when the gene Bmal1 is active affects aging and survival, with its absence during development, not adulthood, leading to premature aging.
research Female pattern hair loss
Hair loss in women is genetic, diagnosed by examination and biopsy, and treated with minoxidil, finasteride, or transplantation.
research A genome-wide association scan in admixed Latin Americans identifies loci influencing facial and scalp hair features
Genetic factors influence hair traits like shape, color, and greying in Latin Americans.
research Cell Types Promoting Goosebumps Form a Niche to Regulate Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Muscles and nerves that cause goosebumps also help control hair growth.
research Endocrine Influences on Hair Growth
Hormones and genetics affect hair growth and patterns, with some changes reversible and others not.
research The Modulatable Stem Cell Niche: Tissue Interactions during Hair and Feather Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.
research Evidence for Masculinization of Adipokine Gene Expression in Visceral and Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue of Obese Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
Obese women with PCOS show a male-like pattern in certain fat tissue gene expressions.
research An In Vivo Mouse Excisional Wound Model of Scarless Healing
Mice healed without scars as fetuses but developed scars as adults, suggesting scarless healing might be replicated with further research.
research The dihydrotestosterone (DHT) hypothesis of prostate cancer and its therapeutic implications
The document suggests that targeting the hormone DHT could be a more effective treatment for prostate cancer than targeting testosterone.
research Tritiated Thymidine: Effect of Decomposition by Self-Radiolysis on Specificity as a Tracer for DNA Synthesis
Decomposed tritiated thymidine is less accurate for DNA tracing, and hair changes can indicate malnutrition.
research Susceptibility variants on chromosome 7p21.1 suggest HDAC9 as a new candidate gene for male-pattern baldness
A gene called HDAC9 might be a new factor in male-pattern baldness.
research Generation and characterization of rat liver stem cell lines and their engraftment in a rat model of liver failure
Researchers created rat liver stem cells that could help repair liver failure in rats and may be useful for studying human liver diseases.
research Alopecia in patients treated with molecularly targeted anticancer therapies
Targeted cancer therapies have a significant but lower risk of causing hair loss compared to chemotherapy.
research Repurposing of Drugs as Novel Influenza Inhibitors From Clinical Gene Expression Infection Signatures
A blood pressure drug, diltiazem, may also help treat influenza.
research Transient mitochondrial DNA double strand breaks in mice cause accelerated aging phenotypes in a ROS-dependent but p53/p21-independent manner
Damaging mitochondrial DNA in mice speeds up aging due to increased reactive oxygen species, not through the p53/p21 pathway.
research Network-Based Drug Repositioning: Approaches, Resources, and Research Directions
The document concludes that computational methods using networks and various data can improve the process of finding new uses for existing drugs.
research De novo single-nucleotide and copy number variation in discordant monozygotic twins reveals disease-related genes
The research found genetic differences in identical twins that could explain why one twin has a disease while the other does not.
research Increased lactate dehydrogenase activity is dispensable in squamous carcinoma cells of origin
High lactate dehydrogenase activity is not necessary for the growth of squamous cell carcinoma.
research Food Deprivation-induced Expression of Minoxidil Sulfotransferase in the Hypothalamus Uncovered by Microarray Analysis
Food deprivation increases MST enzyme in the brain, possibly affecting energy balance.
research Organ Specificity in Autoimmune Diseases: Thyroid and Islet Autoimmunity in Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is linked to thyroid autoimmunity but not type 1 diabetes.
research Genome-wide meta-analysis identifies novel loci conferring risk of acne vulgaris
New genetic factors linked to acne risk were discovered, highlighting the role of certain pathways and genes.
research Inducing hair follicle neogenesis with secreted proteins enriched in embryonic skin
Three specific proteins can turn adult skin cells into hair-growing cells, suggesting a new hair loss treatment.
research A new hair follicle-derived human epidermal model for the evaluation of sunscreen genoprotection
The new lab-grown skin model is good for testing sunscreen's protection against DNA damage from UV light.
research Whole Genome Scan and Selection Signatures for Climate Adaption in Yanbian Cattle
The CORT, FGF5, and CD36 genes are crucial for the cold weather adaptation of Yanbian cattle.
research Comparative study on seasonal hair follicle cycling by analysis of the transcriptomes from cashmere and milk goats
Cashmere and milk goats have different hair growth cycles and gene expressions, which could help improve wool production.
research Targeting neurosteroid synthesis as a therapy for schizophrenia-related alterations induced by early psychosocial stress
A drug improved schizophrenia-like symptoms in stressed rats by changing brain steroid levels.
