research Design and Validation of a Sensitive Multisteroid LC-MS/MS Assay for the Routine Clinical Use: One-Step Sample Preparation with Phospholipid Removal and Comparison to Immunoassays
The new LC-MS/MS method is more accurate and reliable than traditional immunoassays for measuring steroids in serum.
research Mitochondrial dysfunction in diabetic neuropathy may be involved in the development of neuropathic pain via a reduction in neurosteroid synthesis
Mitochondrial problems in diabetic nerve damage might cause pain by lowering the production of certain nerve-related steroids.
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 Repigmentation of Gray Hair After Thyroid Hormone Treatment
Gray hair regained color after thyroid hormone treatment.
research Atualização em Coriorretinopatia Serosa Central
CSC is linked to mineralocorticoid receptor damage, stress, and steroid use, with treatments including drugs and laser therapies to prevent eye damage.
research Gynecologic and andrologic dermatology and the metabolic syndrome
Skin diseases linked to insulin resistance should be managed to prevent diabetes and reduce heart disease risk.
research Neurosteroid Synthesis-Mediated Regulation of GABAAReceptors: Relevance to the Ovarian Cycle and Stress
Ovarian and stress hormones can change GABA A receptors through neurosteroids.
research Androgen receptor–mediated inhibition of cutaneous wound healing
Lowering testosterone speeds up wound healing in male mice.
research Midazolam Inhibits Hippocampal Long-Term Potentiation and Learning through Dual Central and Peripheral Benzodiazepine Receptor Activation and Neurosteroidogenesis
Midazolam impairs learning and memory by increasing neurosteroids through specific receptor activation.
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 Effect of finasteride on behavioural arousal and somatosensory evoked potentials in fetal sheep
Finasteride may affect fetal brain development and increase arousal, but more research is needed for safety confirmation.
research Local synthesis and function of neuro-estrogen and neuro-androgen: impact on the hippocampus-related cognition and neuronal plasticity
Neurosteroids like neuro-estrogen and neuro-androgen are crucial for brain function and can improve cognition and protect against aging-related decline.
research 8. Pathology
Various skin conditions can be treated effectively with different methods, such as discontinuing certain drugs, using specific vaccines, applying creams, and changing lifestyle habits like smoking and drinking.
research 1. Medical Practice; Therapy; Adverse Reactions
Blood pressure drugs can cause skin lupus, but it improves after stopping the drug. The glycoprotein D vaccine works against genital herpes in some women, and the HPV-16 vaccine reduces HPV-16 infection and related diseases. More frequent light therapy clears psoriasis faster. A cream called imiquimod effectively treats a type of skin cancer. Iron supplements don't necessarily help with chronic hair loss in women.
