Minoxidil boosts hair growth in genetically modified mice.
research Emerging pharmacotherapies and regenerative solutions for promoting hair growth for androgenetic alopecia
New treatments for hair loss show promise but need more testing for effectiveness and safety.
research Sex steroid synthesis in human skin in situ: The roles of aromatase and steroidogenic acute regulatory protein in the homeostasis of human skin
Human skin produces sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, influenced by ARO and StAR, which may affect skin elasticity and hair growth.
research Ginsenosides in <i>Panax ginseng</i> Extract Promote Anagen Transition by Suppressing BMP4 Expression and Promote Human Hair Growth by Stimulating Follicle-Cell Proliferation
Panax ginseng extract helps human hair grow by encouraging growth phase transition and cell proliferation while reducing certain protein expression.
research A rapid screening LC‐MS/MS method based on conventional HPLC pumps for the analysis of low molecular weight xenobiotics: application to doping control analysis
A quick method was developed to detect banned substances in urine for doping control.
research Sex hormones and sarcopenia in older persons
Sex hormone treatments can increase muscle mass in older adults but have inconsistent effects on muscle function and may carry cardiovascular risks.
research In Vitro Main Pathways of Steroid Action in Cultured Hair Follicle Cells: Vascular Approach
Steroids, particularly estrogens and 5α-reductase inhibitors, affect blood vessel-related hair growth processes in hair follicle cells.
research Body composition changes and inhibition of fat development in vivo implicates androgen in regulation of stem cell lineage allocation
Androgen is important in controlling stem cell differentiation, reducing fat development, and increasing lean mass.
research Regulation of human hair growth: hormones and neuropeptides
Hormones and neuropeptides affect hair growth, with androgens having opposite effects on beard and scalp hair.
research Production of 5α-Reduced Neurosteroids Is Developmentally Regulated and Shapes GABAAMiniature IPSCs in Lamina II of the Spinal Cord
Neurosteroids regulate synaptic inhibition in the spinal cord and may help manage spinal pain.
research More about X‐linked testicular feminization of the mouse as a noninducible (is) mutation of a regulatory locus: 5α‐androstan‐3α‐17ß‐diol as the true inducer of kidney alcohol dehydrogenase and ß‐glucuronidase
A specific metabolite, not a receptor protein, triggers the production of certain kidney enzymes, but this process is disrupted in mice with a mutation causing testicular feminization.
research Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry based hair steroid profiling may reveal pathogenesis in hair follicles of the scalp
Analyzing hair with this method can help understand and monitor scalp conditions and treatment effects.
research Hormone-dependent medial preoptic/lumbar spinal cord/autonomic coordination supporting male sexual behaviors
Testosterone and its byproducts help support male sexual behavior through different pathways in the brain and body.
research Epidermal growth factor, innovation and safety
Recombinant human epidermal growth factor is versatile, effective, and safe for long-term skin and mucosal treatments.
research Bioactive metabolites of edible mushrooms efficacious against androgenic alopecia: Targeting SRD5A2 using computational approach
