research Discovering the potential of natural remedies in the post COVID-19 complications based on in silico techniques
Natural compounds, especially Withaferin-A, may help treat post-COVID-19 complications, but some may have side effects.
research Tcf3 and Lef1 regulate lineage differentiation of multipotent stem cells in skin
Tcf3 and Lef1 are key in deciding skin stem cell roles.
research The prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome in a community sample of Iranian population: Iranian PCOS prevalence study
About 7% to 15% of Iranian women have polycystic ovary syndrome, depending on the criteria used to diagnose it.
research Species Differences in Prostatic Steroid 5α-Reductases of Rat, Dog, and Human
Different animals have unique versions of the enzyme that changes testosterone into another hormone, which is important for creating effective treatments for prostate and hair loss conditions.
research Smad7-Induced β-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research An Assessment on Impact of COVID-19 Infection in a Gender Specific Manner
Men have higher COVID-19 mortality rates than women due to biological and lifestyle factors.
research High proliferation and delamination during skin epidermal stratification
High proliferation and cell delamination drive early skin development, while later stages may not rely on cell division orientation.
research A preliminary study of finasteride in Tourette syndrome
Finasteride reduces Tourette syndrome symptoms, but results may be limited due to potential biases.
research GLI2-specific Transcriptional Activation of the Bone Morphogenetic Protein/Activin Antagonist Follistatin in Human Epidermal Cells
GLI2 increases follistatin production in human skin cells.
research Structure of human steroid 5α-reductase 2 with the anti-androgen drug finasteride
Finasteride irreversibly affects human steroid 5α-reductase 2, providing insight into its catalytic mechanism and disease-related mutations.
research Identifying molecular targets for reverse aging using integrated network analysis of transcriptomic and epigenomic changes during aging
Curcumin may help reverse aging by targeting specific genes.
research Deletion analysis of AGD1 reveals domains crucial for its plasma membrane recruitment and function in root hair polarity
AGD1's PH domain is essential for its role in root hair growth and polarity.
research Survival of Densely Packed Follicular Unit Grafts Using the Lateral Slit Technique
Densely packed hair grafts can survive well using the lateral slit technique.
research Androgens in SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Infections
Men, particularly those with hair loss, are more likely to get the virus, and those with prostate cancer may have milder symptoms. Testosterone's role in the disease is unclear, and the virus doesn't seem to harm male fertility. Women with PCOS might be at higher risk. More research is needed.

research Synthesis and in vitro study of 17β-[N-ureylene-N,N′-disubstituted]-4-methyl-4-aza-5α-androstan-3-ones as selective inhibitors of type I 5α-reductase
New compounds were made that effectively block a specific enzyme related to androgen conditions.
research SPT6 maintains epidermal homeostasis by inhibiting an NF-κB-positive feedback loop to prevent excessive inflammation
SPT6 prevents excessive skin inflammation by blocking a feedback loop.
