research Nobiletin-loaded composite penetration enhancer vesicles restore the normal miRNA expression and the chief defence antioxidant levels in skin cancer
Nobiletin-loaded vesicles effectively treat skin cancer by restoring normal miRNA and antioxidant levels.
research Short-term responses of soybean roots to individual and combinatorial effects of elevated [CO2] and water deficit
Elevated CO2 can lessen the negative impact of water shortage on soybean roots and affects specific genes.
research Compilation of a comprehensive gene panel for systematic assessment of genes that govern an individual’s drug responses
Researchers found that most genes affecting drug responses are not fully covered by commercial SNP chips, suggesting the need for more comprehensive tools to optimize drug selection based on genetics.
research Effects of chronic inhibition of Testosterone metabolism on cardiac remodeling after ischemia/reperfusion-induced myocardial damage in gonadectomized rats
Testosterone reduces heart damage and inflammation after injury.

The plant combination effectively repairs skin and delays aging.
research Altered Hormone and Bioactive Lipid Plasma Profile in Rodent Models of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Revealed by Targeted Mass Spectrometry
Rodent models of PCOS show some hormone changes similar to humans, but also have key differences.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: update on Etiology, Pathophysiology, Diagnosis and Treatment
Androgenetic alopecia is influenced by various factors and can be treated with medications, procedures, and non-drug methods.
research Novel progestogenic androgens for male contraception: design, synthesis, and activity of C7 α-substituted testosterone
New testosterone analogs show promise for male contraception with better activity and potentially fewer side effects.

Fetal environments contain various chemicals that may disrupt hormones.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The document concludes that effectively managing PCOS requires a multifaceted approach.
research Genome-wide shifts in gene expression induced in theca-interstitial cells by inflammatory stimuli
African American women have a higher risk of preterm delivery than Caucasian women, and inflammatory stimuli affect gene expression in cells related to PCOS, showing a heightened inflammatory state in women with PCOS.
research Unravelling the link between insulin resistance and androgen excess
AKR1C3 could be a treatment target for metabolic issues in PCOS.
research A Study of the androgen receptor gene polymorphism and the level of expression of the androgen receptor in androgenetic alopecia among Egyptians
The study suggests that a specific gene variation and higher gene activity are linked to increased baldness in Egyptian men.
research Polymorphisms in androgen and estrogen receptor genes: effects on male aging
Changes in testosterone and estrogen receptor genes can affect how men age, influencing body fat, hair patterns, and possibly leading to skin disorders.
research Effects of Food-Derived Collagen Peptides on the Expression of Keratin and Keratin-Associated Protein Genes in the Mouse Skin
Eating collagen peptides may help with skin and hair growth.
research Reduced estradiol synthesis by letrozole, an aromatase inhibitor, is protective against development of pentylenetetrazole-induced kindling in mice
Letrozole may help prevent seizures by reducing certain hormone levels.
research Exploring the role of CYP19A1 single nucleotide polymorphisms in the pathogenesis of female pattern hair loss
Certain gene changes and hormone levels are linked to female hair loss.
research The gut‐microbiota‐brain axis: Focus on gut steroids
