research Pharmacodynamic Evaluation: Endocrinology
The conclusion is that endocrinology significantly impacts medicine with various common medications used for treatment.
research MECHANISM OF ACTION OF AVICENNIA MARINA HEARTWOOD EXTRACT AND AVICEQUINONE C ON HUMAN DERMAL PAPILLA CELLS ISOLATED FROM ANDROGENIC ALOPECIA PATIENTS
Avicennia Marina extract and avicequinone C can reduce hair loss hormone production and increase hair growth factors, suggesting they could be used to treat androgenic alopecia.
research Proteomics Characterization of Primary Human Oral Epithelial Cells Using a Novel Culture Technique for Use in Tissue Regeneration
ePUKs could be valuable for regenerative medicine due to their wound healing abilities.
research The pathogenesis of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease affecting hair follicles and may harm heart health.
research Síndrome dos ovários policísticos: correlação dos fenótipos com as manifestações metabólicas
Older age, obesity, hirsutism, and having children increase metabolic risk in women with PCOS.
research Regenerative Medicine of Epidermal Structures
New treatments for skin and hair repair show promise, but further improvements are needed.
research Nociceptive and Nonnociceptive Roles of TRPV3 and Its “Druggability”
TRPV3 could be a target for treating pain, skin disorders, and hair problems, but more research is needed to create effective drugs.
research Modelling androgen synthesis and action during human sexual differentiation
Male sexual differentiation is regulated independently, while female differentiation occurs in an androgenic environment, affecting conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research 14. Wound Healing; Cutaneous Therapy; Hair
A device was made in 2008 to measure hair loss severity. Other findings include: frizzy mutation in mice isn't related to Fgfr2, C/EBPx marks preadipocytes, Cyclosporin A speeds up hair growth in mice, blocking plasmin and metalloproteinases hinders healing, hyperbaric oxygen helps ischemic wound healing, amniotic membranes heal wounds better than polyurethane foam, rhVEGF165 from a fibrin matrix improves tissue flap viability and induces VEGF-R2 expression, and bFGF enhances wound healing and reduces scarring in rabbits.
research The in vitro plasticity of hair follicle dermal and mesenchymal stem cells
Hair follicle stem cells are similar to mesenchymal stem cells and can become neural-like cells under certain conditions.
research Insulin Resistance and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Insulin resistance is linked to PCOS and can lead to other health issues, but treatments like metformin can help manage symptoms.
research American Academy of Veterinary Dermatology and American College of Veterinary Dermatology Annual Meeting, Norfolk, Virginia 4-8 April 2001
The meeting presented findings on effective treatments for various pet skin conditions and insights into the immune responses of dogs with atopic dermatitis.
research What’s Sex Got to Do With COVID-19? Gender-Based Differences in the Host Immune Response to Coronaviruses
Men generally have more severe COVID-19 cases and higher death rates than women due to biological differences.
research Hyperandrogenism in polycystic ovary syndrome and adrenal hyperplasia: finding differences to make a specific diagnosis
Differentiating PCOS from NCAH helps improve diagnosis and treatment.
research Current evaluation of amenorrhea
Amenorrhea is relatively rare and initial testing should check FSH, TSH, and prolactin levels.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research Current evaluation of amenorrhea
The document concludes that identifying the cause of amenorrhea is crucial for proper treatment.
research Current evaluation of amenorrhea
Amenorrhea is when a woman doesn't have periods, with primary amenorrhea starting by age 15 or within five years of breast development, and secondary amenorrhea when periods stop for three months. It affects 3-4% of women not pregnant, breastfeeding, or in menopause, mainly due to polycystic ovary syndrome, hypothalamic amenorrhea, hyperprolactinemia, and ovarian failure.
research Hirsutism: diagnosis and treatment
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and combined treatments are key for hirsutism management, and weight loss may help overweight patients.
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 Effects of oral contraceptives on the quality of life of women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a crossover randomized controlled trial
Birth control pills containing cyproterone acetate improve the quality of life more for women with polycystic ovary syndrome after 6 months of use.
research Debatable Topics in PCOS Patients
PCOS is complex, affects many, and requires informed management and lifestyle changes.
research Nonpigmented hair removal using photodynamic therapy in animal model
Photodynamic therapy can remove nonpigmented hair in mice and might work for humans.
research Hirsutism
Excessive hair growth in women, often from high androgen levels, is usually caused by PCOS, and can be treated with hair removal, medication, and possibly weight loss.
research Melanocyte stem cells: a melanocyte reservoir in hair follicles for hair and skin pigmentation
Melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles are key for hair color and could help treat greying and pigment disorders.
research Metformin: an old medication of new fashion: evolving new molecular mechanisms and clinical implications in polycystic ovary syndrome
Metformin helps manage polycystic ovary syndrome by improving insulin resistance and ovulation, but more research is needed on its full effects.
research Inherited ichthyoses/generalized Mendelian disorders of cornification
Inherited ichthyoses cause widespread skin scaling and thickening due to gene mutations.
research A primer for studying cell cycle dynamics of the human hair follicle
The document concludes that understanding hair follicle cell cycles is crucial for hair growth and alopecia research, and recommends specific techniques and future research directions.
