JAK inhibitors are effective in treating various immune-related diseases, not just rheumatoid arthritis.
research Essential Oils and Their Individual Components in Cosmetic Products
Essential oils in cosmetics offer benefits but require careful formulation for safety and effectiveness.
research Intracrine androgen biosynthesis, metabolism and action revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
research Cardiac and Medullary Neuroinflammatory Pathways Trigger Androgenic Incitement of Cardiovascular Sequels of Endotoxemia in Rats
Testosterone increases heart and blood pressure issues in rats with endotoxemia, and stopping testosterone production can reduce these problems.
research Bioactive antiinflammatory antibacterial hemostatic citrate-based dressing with macrophage polarization regulation for accelerating wound healing and hair follicle neogenesis
A special dressing called FEA-PCEI can speed up wound healing, reduce scars, and help grow new hair follicles, but only at the right dosage.
research The Organ-Maintained Human Sebaceous Gland
Human sebaceous glands can grow normally for a week without certain growth factors, and adding estrogen reduces their oil production without affecting cell growth.
research Cicatricial Alopecia Symposium 2011: Lipids, Inflammation and Stem Cells
The symposium concluded that a specific lipid might cause hair loss, inflammation is a key factor, and stem cells in bald scalps aren't working right, suggesting new treatment targets.
research TSPO ligand etifoxine attenuates LPS-induced cognitive dysfunction in mice
Etifoxine, an anxiety drug, can lessen brain inflammation and cognitive issues in mice, partly by increasing production of protective brain steroids.
research Editors' Picks
ANp63 is crucial for skin integrity, new filaggrin gene mutations link to eczema, hair can regrow from non-stem cells, sunburns are increasing, and glucocorticoids help treat skin allergies by affecting immune cells.
research Role of Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in the Pathophysiology and Clinical Manifestations of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
DHEA may play a complex role in PCOS, affecting hormones, metabolism, and symptoms.
research Coumarin derivatives, but not coumarin itself, cause skin irritation via topical delivery
Coumarin derivatives cause skin irritation, but coumarin itself does not.
research Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (17β -HSD3, 17β-HSD5, and 3α-HSD3) Inhibitors:Extragonadal Regulation of Intracellular Sex Steroid Hormone Levels
Certain inhibitors can potentially treat prostate cancer and other hormone-dependent conditions by controlling sex hormone levels in cells.
research Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel androst-3,5-diene-3-carboxylic acid derivatives as inhibitors of 5α-reductase type 1 and 2
New chemical compounds were made that effectively block an enzyme linked to prostate growth.
research 3 alpha, 17 beta-androstanediol glucuronide in plasma. A marker of androgen action in idiopathic hirsutism.
High levels of 3 alpha-diol glucuronide in the blood are a marker of increased androgen action in women with excessive hair growth of unknown cause.
research Endocrine and Intracrine Sources of Androgens in Women: Inhibition of Breast Cancer and Other Roles of Androgens and Their Precursor Dehydroepiandrosterone
Androgens and DHEA can help prevent breast cancer and improve health in women.
research Neurosteroids and Epileptogenesis
Neurosteroids may help prevent seizures and slow epilepsy progression.
research Role of Anticonvulsant and Antiepileptogenic Neurosteroids in the Pathophysiology and Treatment of Epilepsy
Neurosteroids show promise for treating epilepsy and more research is needed.
research Anthracycline analogs The past, present, and future
Epirubicin is as effective as doxorubicin for cancer treatment with less heart damage, but doesn't work on doxorubicin-resistant cancers.
research Omega-6 highly unsaturated fatty acids in Leydig cells facilitate male sex hormone production
Omega-6 fats in certain cells boost male hormone production.
research Oral contraceptive pill (OCP) treatment alters the gene expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) women compared to drug-naive PCOS women
