Dapagliflozin improved blood sugar control in a man with Werner syndrome without side effects.
research Proline-rich protein-like PRPL1 controls elongation of root hairs in Arabidopsis thaliana
A gene in Arabidopsis thaliana, AtPRPL1, affects root hair length but not cell wall composition.
research Hirsutism: Diagnosis and Treatment
The document concludes that hirsutism can be managed with various treatments tailored to the individual, potentially improving quality of life.
research Flutamide was more effective than finasteride for idiopathic hirsutism
Flutamide worked better than finasteride for reducing excessive hair growth in women, but had more side effects.
research Glibenclamide reverses cromakalim-induced anti-ischemic effect in conscious rabbits
research Trans glutaminase-mediated cross-linking in mammalian epidermis
research Comparative Proteomics Indicates That Biosynthesis of Pectic Precursors Is Important for Cotton Fiber and Arabidopsis Root Hair Elongation
Pectin biosynthesis is essential for the growth of cotton fibers and Arabidopsis root hairs.
research Male Pattern Alopecia A Histopathologic and Histochemical Study
Male pattern baldness involves smaller hair follicles, larger oil glands, and other tissue changes, but not major blood supply issues.
research Minoxidil and the Treatment of Severe Hypertension
Minoxidil lowers blood pressure effectively but may cause unwanted hair growth and other side effects.
research Knock-Down of Arabidopsis PLC5 Reduces Primary Root Growth and Secondary Root Formation While Overexpression Improves Drought Tolerance and Causes Stunted Root Hair Growth
Changing the amount of PLC5 in Arabidopsis affects root growth and drought resistance, with less PLC5 slowing root growth and more PLC5 improving drought tolerance but hindering root hair growth.
research Antiandrogenic activities ofGlycyrrhiza glabrain male rats
Liquorice may reduce testosterone and affect male reproductive organs, potentially helping treat conditions like prostate cancer.
research Sustained Human Hair Follicle Growth Ex Vivo in a Glycosaminoglycan Hydrogel Matrix
Human hair grows better in a special gel that mimics skin.
research Complementary Therapies for Idiopathic Hirsutism: Topical Licorice as Promising Option
Adding licorice gel to laser treatment is more effective for reducing facial hair than laser alone.
research Metabolic complications of glucocorticoids – Prevention by metformin
Metformin can help prevent the side effects of glucocorticoid medications on metabolism.
research #3665 Glyoxylic acid induce crystalline nephropathy and hair-straightening products: a case report
Hair-straightening products with glyoxylic acid can cause kidney damage.
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 All-in-one polysaccharide hydrogel with resistant vascular burst pressure and cooperative wound microenvironment regulation for fatal arterial hemorrhage and diabetic wound healing
The hydrogel effectively stops bleeding and heals diabetic wounds quickly.
research Transglutaminase-mediated cross-linking in mammalian epidermis
research L-Ornithine ketoacid-transaminase assay in hair roots of homozygotes and heterozygotes for gyrate atrophy
research Relative Prevalence of Different Androgen Excess Disorders in 950 Women Referred because of Clinical Hyperandrogenism
Most women referred for excess male hormone symptoms had polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), with other conditions being less common.
research Abdominal Fat Quantity and Distribution in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Extent of Its Relation to Insulin Resistance
Women with PCOS often have more belly fat and higher insulin levels, but belly fat isn't the only cause of their insulin resistance.
research Lack of efficacy of finasteride in postmenopausal women with androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride doesn't effectively treat hair loss in postmenopausal women.
research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases

research Sebocytes are the Key Regulators of Androgen Homeostasis in Human Skin
Sebocytes play a key role in controlling androgen levels in human skin.
research Androgens and alopecia
Male hormones, particularly DHT, are linked to male pattern hair loss, and treatments like finasteride can help, but they don't work for postmenopausal women's hair loss, which may have different causes.
research ATP-competitive mTOR kinase inhibitors delay plant growth by triggering early differentiation of meristematic cells but no developmental patterning change
Certain inhibitors slow down plant growth by causing early cell specialization without changing the cell development pattern.
