research Effects of calcitriol combined with metformin in the treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome and its influence on serum monocyte chemotactic factor -1
Calcitriol and metformin together are more effective for treating PCOS and lowering MCP-1 than metformin alone.
research Primary Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance or Chrousos Syndrome: Allostasis Through a Mutated Glucocorticoid Receptor
Chrousos Syndrome is caused by mutations that make the body less sensitive to glucocorticoids, leading to various symptoms and requiring high-dose treatment.
research Bilateral osteonecrosis of the femoral head associated with corticosteroid therapy for alopecia areata: a case report and review of the literature
Corticosteroid therapy for alopecia areata can cause severe hip bone damage.
research GLP-1 Receptor Agonists: Beyond Their Pancreatic Effects
GLP-1 receptor agonists, like Dulaglutide, Liraglutide, and Semaglutide, have potential benefits beyond the pancreas, including neuroprotection, pain suppression, cardiovascular protection, obesity management, and cancer treatment, but there are concerns about pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer risks.
research Possible involvement of 5α-reduced neurosteroids in adrenergic and serotonergic stimulation of GFAP gene expression in rat C6 glioma cells
5α-reduced neurosteroids may help regulate glial cell differentiation.
research Murgi: un antiguo puerto romano: un antiguo puerto romano

research THE EFFECT OF ADRENALECTOMY AND ADRENOCORTICAL HORMONES ON THE HAIR GROWTH CYCLE IN THE RABBIT AND RAT
Cortisone suppresses hair regrowth, especially undercoat hair, while adrenalectomy affects hair growth differently in rabbits and rats.
research Gingerol ameliorates chronic graft-versus-host disease by regulating treg/Th17 transdifferenciation
Gingerol may help treat chronic graft-versus-host disease by improving immune cell balance.

Chronic stress can reduce skin pigmentation.
research Minoxidil-induced hypertrichosis: treatment with calcium thioglycolate depilatory.
Minoxidil, a blood pressure drug, can cause excessive hair growth, but this can be successfully treated with a hair removal agent called calcium thioglycolate.
research Supplementary Material for: Dexamethasone, a synthetic glucocorticoid, induces the activity of androgen receptor in human dermal papilla cells
Dexamethasone increases androgen receptor activity in scalp cells, which might explain stress-related hair loss.
research Efficacy and safety of glucocorticoids in the treatment of progressive muscular dystrophy in children: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Glucocorticoids for progressive muscular dystrophy in children don't improve muscle strength or function but do increase certain side effects.
