research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia—Current Insights in Pathophysiology, Diagnostics, and Management
Early diagnosis and individualized treatment improve outcomes for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research Local circadian clock gates cell cycle progression of transient amplifying cells during regenerative hair cycling
Hair grows faster in the morning and is more vulnerable to damage from radiation due to the internal clock in hair follicle cells.
research Melatonin and the hair follicle
Melatonin helps regulate hair growth and protects the hair follicle from stress.
research Androgen receptor–mediated inhibition of cutaneous wound healing
Lowering testosterone speeds up wound healing in male mice.
research Anti-cancer properties of olive oil secoiridoid phenols: a systematic review of in vivo studies
Olive oil compounds may help prevent cancer in animals, but human results are mixed.
research 9 Role of 5α-reductase in health and disease
5α-reductase is essential for male sexual development and its inhibitors have potential in treating various conditions related to hormone action.
research Tissue regenerative delays and synthetic lethality in adult mice after combined deletion of Atr and Trp53
Removing both Atr and Trp53 genes in adult mice causes severe tissue damage and death due to DNA damage.
research Genetic Ablation of the CDP/Cux Protein C Terminus Results in Hair Cycle Defects and Reduced Male Fertility
Mutant CDP/Cux protein causes hair defects and reduced male fertility in mice.
research Female Pseudohermaphroditism Caused by a Novel Homozygous Missense Mutation of the GR Gene
A new gene mutation causes female pseudohermaphroditism due to glucocorticoid resistance.
research Androgenetic alopecia: An update
Minoxidil and finasteride effectively treat hair loss.
research Inducible deletion of epidermal Dicer and Drosha reveals multiple functions for miRNAs in postnatal skin
Drosha and Dicer are essential for hair follicle health and preventing DNA damage in skin cells.
research Three-Month Treatment With a Long-Acting Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist of Patients With Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: Effects on Tissue Androgen Concentration, 5α-Reductase Activity and Androgen Receptor Content*
A three-month treatment with a GnRH agonist significantly lowered androgen levels and 5α-reductase activity in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Genome-wide association study identifies a new locus JMJD1C at 10q21 that may influence serum androgen levels in men
A new gene, JMJD1C, may affect testosterone levels in men.
research Adverse effects of common medications on male fertility
Some common medications can harm male fertility, but many effects can be reversed.
research Androgens and Female Sexual Function and Dysfunction—Findings From the Fourth International Consultation of Sexual Medicine
Androgens play a role in female sexual function, and testosterone therapy can help women with low sexual desire, but more research is needed on treatments and long-term safety.
research Replicative stress, stem cells and aging
Maintaining DNA health in stem cells is key to preventing aging and tissue breakdown.
research Androgen receptors and their biology
Androgen receptors are key for development and health, affecting conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness.
research Lamins in development, tissue maintenance and stress
Lamins are vital for cell survival, organ development, and preventing premature aging.
research The Paradox of p53: What, How, and Why?
The p53 protein has complex, sometimes contradictory functions, including tumor suppression and promoting cell survival.
research Suppression of fibroblast proliferation and lysyl hydroxylase activity by minoxidil.
Minoxidil slows fibroblast growth and collagen production, potentially treating keloids, hypertrophic scars, and connective tissue disorders.
research The Majority of Multipotent Epidermal Stem Cells Do Not Protect Their Genome by Asymmetrical Chromosome Segregation
Most hair follicle stem cells do not protect their DNA by dividing it unevenly.
research Pattern Hair Loss in Men
Male pattern hair loss caused by follicular miniaturization; early diagnosis and treatment can reduce psychological burden.
research OCT4 maintains self-renewal and reverses senescence in human hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells through the downregulation of p21 by DNA methyltransferases
OCT4 helps hair stem cells renew and fight aging, potentially aiding hair regrowth.
