Research
180-210 / 1000+ results research Mixture effects of endocrine disrupting compounds in vitro
Weak endocrine disruptors in mixtures can have significant effects and should be considered in risk assessments.
research Androgenetic Alopecia
Male pattern hair loss is genetic and influenced by hormones, with treatments like minoxidil and surgery available.
research Molecular epidemiology of hypospadias: Review of genetic and environmental risk factors
Both genes and environmental factors like chemicals may contribute to the increase in hypospadias, but the exact causes are still unclear.
research Androgens and androgen receptor action in skin and hair follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Hormones and the pilosebaceous unit
Hormones significantly affect hair and oil gland function in the skin, and more research is needed on skin-related hormone disorders.
research What causes hidradenitis suppurativa ?—15 years after
Hidradenitis suppurativa is caused by genetic factors, inflammation, bacteria, hormones, and lifestyle factors like obesity and smoking.
research Revising the role of the androgen receptor in breast cancer
The document concludes that targeting the androgen receptor may be a promising breast cancer treatment, especially for certain types.
research Stress-related skin disorders
Stress can worsen skin conditions by affecting hormone levels and immune response.
research Genetics and other factors in the aetiology of female pattern hair loss
Female pattern hair loss has unclear causes, possibly involving genetics, hormones, and environment, and needs better treatments.
research Hair melanocytes as neuro-endocrine sensors—Pigments for our imagination
Hair melanocytes help the skin respond to stress and regulate hair pigmentation.
research 17-Hydroxyprogesterone Responses to Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Disclose Distinct Phenotypes of Functional Ovarian Hyperandrogenism and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The research found that polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has two distinct types, with one having more severe hormone and insulin issues.
research Hair Follicle Regeneration in Skin Grafts: Current Concepts and Future Perspectives
Hair follicle regeneration in skin grafts may be possible using stem cells and tissue engineering.
research Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor and proglucagon expression in mouse skin
Mice skin has components that could help with hair growth and might be used for diabetes treatment.
research Temporal expression and steroidal regulation of piRNA pathway genes (mael, piwi, vasa) during Silurana (Xenopus) tropicalis embryogenesis and early larval development
The piRNA pathway genes are crucial in early development and may influence sex differentiation through hormone regulation.
research Rooster feathering, androgenic alopecia, and hormone-dependent tumor growth: What is in common?
Sex hormones affect hair and feather growth and may help manage alopecia and hormone-dependent cancers.
research Alteration of Skin Wound Healing in Keratinocyte-Specific Mediator Complex Subunit 1 Null Mice
MED1 affects skin wound healing differently in young and old mice.
research Interaction of the AKT and β-catenin signalling pathways and the influence of photobiomodulation on cellular signalling proteins in diabetic wound healing
Photobiomodulation may help heal diabetic wounds, but more research is needed.
research Effect of Nutritional Restriction on the Hair Follicles Development and Skin Transcriptome of Chinese Merino Sheep
Poor maternal nutrition can lead to fewer wool follicles in Chinese Merino sheep.
research Novel insights into the pathways regulating the canine hair cycle and their deregulation in alopecia X
The study concluded that similar pathways regulate hair growth in dogs and mice, and these pathways are disrupted in dogs with Alopecia X, affecting stem cells and hormone metabolism.
research Apocrine sweat gland obstruction by antiperspirants allowing transdermal absorption of cutaneous generated hormones and pheromones as a link to the observed incidence rates of breast and prostate cancer in the 20th century
The document suggests that blocking sweat glands with antiperspirants might allow skin-generated hormones to be absorbed, possibly increasing breast and prostate cancer risk.
research From basal cell carcinoma morphogenesis to the alopecia induced by hedgehog inhibitors: connecting the dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
