research Human scalp hair: Modulation by various factors and hormones do estrogens inhibit or stimulate—A perplexing perspective
The effects of estrogen on human scalp hair growth are unclear and need more research.
research A 12-week treatment with the long-acting glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist liraglutide leads to significant weight loss in a subset of obese women with newly diagnosed polycystic ovary syndrome
Liraglutide caused significant weight loss in some obese women with PCOS, especially those with severe obesity and insulin resistance.
research Hormonal regulation of hair follicles exhibits a biological paradox
Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.

Hormonal therapies, like flutamide and cyproterone acetate, are safe and effective for treating adult women's acne, especially those with hormone imbalance or resistant acne.
research The Molecular Basis of Androgen Insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, affecting sexual development.
research Biology of estrogens in skin: implications for skin aging
Estrogens can improve skin aging but carry risks; more research is needed on safer treatments.
research Hair and Scalp Variation Related to Gender
Gender affects hair and scalp characteristics, with differences in hormone responses, graying patterns, and trace metals.
research Local Actions of Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone Regulate Hair Color
TRH in hair follicles can influence hair color by increasing melanin.
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 Sexually dimorphic sail feathers in the Mandarin duck as a model for lifelong developmental modulation
Mandarin duck sail feathers change with seasons due to hormones and genetic regulation.
research Effect of estrogens on skin aging and the potential role of SERMs
Estrogens help reduce skin aging, and SERMs might offer similar benefits without the risks of hormone therapy.
research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research Fulvestrant, a new treatment option for advanced breast cancer: tolerability versus existing agents
Fulvestrant is a well-tolerated new treatment for advanced breast cancer that may delay chemotherapy.
research Molecular Genetic and Endocrine Mechanisms of Hair Growth
Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.
research Estrogens and Human Scalp Hair Growth—Still More Questions than Answers
The effects of estrogen on human hair growth are unclear and need more research.
research Expression Profiles of Reproduction- and Thyroid Hormone-Related Transcripts in the Brains of Chemically-Induced Intersex Frogs
Intersex frogs have different brain gene activity related to sex and thyroid hormones.
research Androgens trigger different growth responses in genetically identical human hair follicles in organ culture that reflect their epigenetic diversity in life
Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.
research Aromatase inhibitors induce ‘male pattern hair loss’ in women?
Aromatase inhibitors cause male pattern hair loss in women.
research Immunological aspects and gender bias during respiratory viral infections including novel Coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19): A scoping review
Men are more likely to have severe respiratory viral infections like COVID-19 due to hormonal and genetic differences, while women generally have stronger immune responses.
research Effects of Flutamide, a pure antiandrogen, on endocrine parameters, in the adult female rat
Flutamide, an antiandrogen, has minimal impact on female rat endocrine systems and does not significantly change their reproductive cycles.
research Selective Pituitary Resistance to Thyroid Hormone: Clinical Hyperthyroidism with High TSH on Levothyroxine Administration in I-131 Ablated “Graves Disease”
The woman was misdiagnosed with Graves Disease, leading to incorrect treatment, while she actually had Pituitary Resistance to Thyroid Hormone.
research Cycle pilaire et alopécie X chez le chien
Alopecia X in dogs is a cosmetic issue, not a hormonal disorder, and harmful treatments should be avoided.
research The effects of oestrogens on linear bone growth
Estrogens are key for bone growth spurts in both boys and girls and affect growth into adulthood.
research Steroid Sulfatase: Molecular Biology, Regulation, and Inhibition
The enzyme steroid sulfatase is linked to breast cancer and other conditions, and inhibitors are being developed for treatment.
research Ligand-Independent Actions of the Vitamin D Receptor Maintain Hair Follicle Homeostasis
The vitamin D receptor is essential for normal hair growth, even without its usual binding.
