Annurca apple supplement safely increases hair growth and keratin in humans.
research Androgen antagonists in androgen target tissues
Antiandrogens have important biological effects, but more research is needed to understand them fully and compare their effectiveness and side effects to other treatments.
research Rapid Formation of Cell Aggregates and Spheroids Induced by a “Smart” Boronic Acid Copolymer
A boronic acid copolymer quickly forms cell clusters, useful for tissue and tumor modeling.
research Expression and function of nuclear receptor co-activator 4: evidence of a potential role independent of co-activator activity
NcoA4 may have roles beyond helping control gene activity, possibly affecting cell behavior and stability.
research Vertex balding, plasma insulin-like growth factor 1, and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3
Men with balding at age 45 had higher IGF-1 and lower IGFBP-3, suggesting these factors might be important in male pattern baldness.
research Cloning of the human phenol sulfotransferase gene family: three genes implicated in the metabolism of catecholamines, thyroid hormones and drugs
Scientists identified three genes important for processing certain brain chemicals, thyroid hormones, and medications.
research The Significance of NOTCH Pathway in the Development of Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis
Blocking the NOTCH pathway can prevent fibrosis in systemic sclerosis.
research Alopecia Areata Increases the Risk of Stroke: a 3-year Follow-Up Study
People with alopecia areata have a higher risk of stroke.
research Expression of steroidogenic enzymes in human sebaceous glands
Human sebaceous glands contain enzymes that affect androgen production and may influence sebum production and acne.
research Guidelines for the Use of Acitretin in Psoriasis
Acitretin is effective for severe psoriasis and can be used long-term due to no immunosuppression, but must be carefully monitored for side effects and is not for pregnant women.
research Pharmacological Inhibition of Stearoyl CoA Desaturase in the Skin Induces Atrophy of the Sebaceous Glands
