research Minoxidil
Minoxidil effectively treats hair loss, works better for women, and requires consistent use.
research Immunology of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata, a type of hair loss, is likely an autoimmune disease with a genetic link, but its exact cause is still unknown.
research Dihydrotestosterone Regulates Hair Growth Through the Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway in C57BL/6 Mice and In Vitro Organ Culture
Dihydrotestosterone affects hair growth by changing the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, with low levels helping and high levels hindering growth.
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 Sebaceous immunobiology - skin homeostasis, pathophysiology, coordination of innate immunity and inflammatory response and disease associations
Sebaceous glands play a key role in skin health, immunity, and various skin diseases.
research Mechanisms underlying select chemotherapeutic-agent-induced neuroinflammation and subsequent neurodegeneration
Chemotherapy can cause brain inflammation and damage, and understanding this process could help manage side effects.
research Current evaluation of amenorrhea
Amenorrhea, or the absence of periods, should be evaluated by age 15 or within five years of early breast development, and is most commonly caused by conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome and hypothalamic amenorrhea.
research Honokiol protects skin cells against inflammation, collagenolysis, apoptosis, and senescence caused by cigarette smoke damage
Honokiol helps protect skin from damage and aging caused by cigarette smoke.
research The antiandrogenic effect of finasteride against a mutant androgen receptor
Finasteride may improve prostate cancer treatment outcomes.
research Angiogenin is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and stimulates hair growth
Angiogenin helps hair grow by stimulating cell growth and blood vessel formation.
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 Topical use of systemic drugs in dermatology: A comprehensive review
Using systemic drugs as creams for skin conditions shows promise, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Infertility Treatment in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Lifestyle Interventions, Medications and Surgery
Lifestyle changes are the first step in treating infertility in PCOS, followed by medications like clomiphene and metformin, and then surgery if needed.
research Advancements in research on the immune-inflammatory mechanisms mediated by NLRP3 inflammasome in ischemic stroke and the regulatory role of natural plant products
Natural plant products like Proanthocyanidins and curcumin may help treat ischemic stroke by reducing inflammation.
research Relating neurosteroid modulation of inhibitory neurotransmission to behaviour
Neurosteroids can influence behavior by modulating brain inhibition, with potential for treating psychiatric disorders.
research Physiopathological role of the enzymatic complex 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase in the generation of progesterone and testosterone neuroactive metabolites
The enzymes 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase help create brain-active substances from progesterone and testosterone, which could be used for treatment, but more research is needed to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
research Are hair follicle stem cells promising candidates for wound healing?
Hair follicle stem cells are promising for wound healing but require more research for safe clinical use.
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 A comparison between finasteride, flutamide, and finasteride plus flutamide combination in the treatment of hirsutism
Flutamide works better than finasteride for hirsutism, and combining both is slightly better but not much.
research Regulation of pathophysiological and tissue regenerative functions of MSCs mediated via the WNT signaling pathway (Review)
The WNT signaling pathway is crucial for mesenchymal stem cells' function and therapy success.
research Hypothalamic DNA methylation in rats with dihydrotestosterone‐induced polycystic ovary syndrome: effects of low‐frequency electro‐acupuncture
Electro-acupuncture may help treat PCOS in rats by changing brain DNA methylation.
research Estuarine bed-sediment-quality data collected in New Jersey and New York after Hurricane Sandy, 2013
Hurricane Sandy increased contamination in estuarine sediments in New Jersey and New York.
research HAIR LOSS AND REGENERATION PERFORMED ON ANIMAL MODELS
Animal models are crucial for learning about hair loss and finding treatments.
research Evidence Suggesting a Role of Iron in a Mouse Model of Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis
