research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Cardiovascular Disease: A Premature Association?
While PCOS might increase the risk of heart disease, there's not strong evidence to prove it causes earlier heart problems.
research Colon Cancer Stem Cells: Promise of Targeted Therapy
Targeting colon cancer stem cells might lead to better treatment results.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Skin melanocytes: biology and development
The paper concludes that understanding melanocyte development can help in insights into skin diseases and melanoma diversity.
research The Neurobiology of Sexual Function
Testosterone is important for men's sexual function, may help some women's sexual desire, while other hormones and neurotransmitters also play complex roles in sexual behavior.

research Relative Prevalence of Different Androgen Excess Disorders in 950 Women Referred because of Clinical Hyperandrogenism
Most women referred for excess male hormone symptoms had polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), with other conditions being less common.
research Wnt Signaling, Lgr5, and Stem Cells in the Intestine and Skin
Lgr5 is a marker for active, self-renewing stem cells in the intestine and skin, important for tissue maintenance.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research Aging and Immortality: Quasi-Programmed Senescence and Its Pharmacologic Inhibition
The conclusion is that using drugs to block the TOR pathway might slow aging and prevent age-related diseases.
research Leucine-Rich Repeat-Containing G-Protein-Coupled Receptors as Markers of Adult Stem Cells
Certain proteins, Lgr5 and Lgr6, are important markers of adult stem cells and are involved in tissue repair and cancer development.
research Androgen Therapy in Women: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline
The Endocrine Society advised against routine testosterone therapy for women, citing a need for more research on long-term safety and a clear definition of androgen deficiency.
research Mucocutaneous reactions to chemotherapy
Chemotherapy can cause various skin reactions, with hair loss being the most common, and proper diagnosis and treatment of these reactions are important.
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 Androgen Therapy in Women: A Reappraisal: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline
The guidelines advise against using testosterone and DHEA in women for most conditions due to safety and effectiveness concerns, but suggest considering testosterone for postmenopausal women with low sexual desire.
research Wnt1/βcatenin injury response activates the epicardium and cardiac fibroblasts to promote cardiac repair
Wnt1/βcatenin signaling is crucial for heart repair after injury.
