research Development and optimization of finasteride-loaded microemulsions for transdermal delivery
Finasteride-loaded microemulsions, made with cinnamon oil, Tween20, propylene glycol, and water, can help maintain stemness of dermal cells, potentially aiding in hair regeneration.
research Allopregnanolone-mediated protective effects of progesterone on tributyltin-induced neuronal injury in rat hippocampal slices
Progesterone protects neurons from damage by converting to allopregnanolone, which works through GABAA receptors.
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 Immunopotentiator from Pantoea agglomerans 1 (IP-PA1) Promotes Murine Hair Growth and Human Dermal Papilla Cell Gene Expression.
IP-PA1 helps grow hair in mice and affects human cell growth-related genes differently than traditional hair growth treatments.
