Human exosomes are effective for targeted treatments but face scalability issues, while plant exosomes are cost-effective for cosmetics.
research Dimorphic regulation of the MafB gene by sex steroids in hamsters (Mesocricetus auratus)
Sex steroids affect the MafB gene differently in male and female hamsters.
research Assessment of the Embryological Origin, Anatomical and Histological Structure of the Skin
The skin is vital for protection, temperature control, fluid balance, immunity, and sensing, with damage affecting daily life and mental health.

research Rat steroid 5α-reductase kinetic characteristics: Extreme pH-dependency of the type II isozyme in prostate and epididymis homogenates
The activity of a specific rat enzyme in the prostate and epididymis is highly dependent on the acidity level.
research Preoperative hormonal stimulation in hypospadias: a systematic review
Hormone treatment before hypospadias surgery can increase penis size and reduce surgery complications.
research Selective non-steroidal inhibitors of 5α-reductase type 1
Selective non-steroidal inhibitors of 5α-reductase type 1 can help treat DHT-related disorders.
research Trends in the Development of New Drugs for Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
New treatments for enlarged prostate are being developed to be more effective and have fewer side effects.
research Wedelolactone, a natural coumestan with multiple pharmacological effects
Wedelolactone may help treat inflammation, infections, cancer, bone loss, and organ damage.
research An observational retrospective evaluation of 79 young men with long-term adverse effects after use of finasteride against androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride caused long-term sexual and non-sexual side effects in young men with hair loss.
research Sexual Problems of Men With Androgenic Alopecia Treated With 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors
Men using hair loss drugs like finasteride may experience sexual side effects like erectile dysfunction, but it's unclear who will be affected and when. Treating depression and sexual symptoms is suggested, as these men often have higher rates of both. More research is needed to understand why these side effects occur.
research The genetic basis of dermatophytosis skin infection susceptibility
