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.
research Hair problems in women
Hair problems are common and distressing for women, but increasing knowledge of treatments offers hope.
research Androgens in women
Hormone treatments can help with women's skin and hair disorders, but they need careful monitoring and more research.
research Neuroactive gonadal drugs for neuroprotection in male and female models of Parkinson's disease
Some hormone-related drugs may protect brain cells in Parkinson's disease differently in men and women.
research Understanding and Addressing Hair Disorders in Transgender Individuals
Hormone therapy affects hair growth in transgender individuals, with testosterone potentially causing hair loss in trans men and estrogen reducing facial/body hair in trans women; treatment options vary.
research Fibromodulin-Deficiency Alters Temporospatial Expression Patterns of Transforming Growth Factor-β Ligands and Receptors during Adult Mouse Skin Wound Healing
Mice lacking fibromodulin have disrupted healing patterns, leading to abnormal skin repair and scarring.
research Is hormonal treatment still an option in acne today?
Hormonal treatments are effective as a second-line option for moderate-to-severe acne in females, but should be used with caution due to health risks.
research Carriers of 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency Are Not at Increased Risk for Hyperandrogenism*
People who carry the 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency gene are not more likely to have excessive male hormone levels.
research Culture of the human pilosebaceous unit, hair follicle and sebaceous gland
The article concludes that developing in vitro models for human hair structures is important for research and reducing animal testing, but there are challenges like obtaining suitable samples and the models' limitations.
research Significant effects of mild endogenous hormonal changes in humans: considerations for low-dose testing.
Small changes in hormones can significantly impact health, showing the importance of sensitive testing for chemicals that disrupt hormones.
research Characteristics of flutamide action on prostatic and testicular functions in the rat
Flutamide combined with an LHRH agonist effectively inhibits prostate growth, suggesting it could treat prostate cancer.
research Women's midlife health Reframing menopause
The document concludes that menopause should be seen as a natural part of aging and managed with personalized care and informed choices.
research Gender Differences in Cardiac Hypertrophy
Women generally handle heart enlargement better than men, but it's riskier for them if it occurs; hormones like estrogen offer some protection.
research Changes of androgens levels in menopausal women
Menopausal women have higher androgen levels, which can cause symptoms like facial hair growth and low sexual desire.
research Prolactin as a candidate sebotrop(h)ic hormone?
Prolactin may influence skin glands and could be a target for treating acne and skin aging.
research Review of the effects of 17α-estradiol in humans: a less feminizing estrogen with neuroprotective potential
17α-estradiol is a safe estrogen that might protect the brain and doesn't cause feminization, needing more research for treating brain diseases.
research Stem cells and aberrant signaling of molecular systems in skin aging
Skin aging is caused by stem cell damage and can potentially be delayed with treatments like antioxidants and stem cell therapy.
research Distinct mechanisms underlie pattern formation in the skin and skin appendages
Different processes create patterns in skin and things like hair and feathers.
research The Molecular Basis of Androgen Insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, affecting sexual development.
research A missing piece: the spiny mouse and the puzzle of menstruating species
The spiny mouse is a unique menstruating rodent that can help us understand menstruation and reproductive disorders.
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 Applications of steroid drugs entrapped in cyclodextrins
Cyclodextrins improve how steroid drugs work and are used in marketed medications and environmental applications.
research Evaluation of New Pregnane Derivatives as 5.ALPHA.-Reductase Inhibitor.
New pregnane derivatives are effective at inhibiting an enzyme linked to hair loss and reducing oil gland activity.
research Dehydroepiandrosterone for women in the peri- or postmenopausal phase
DHEA may help with sexual function when used intravaginally by menopausal women but is similar to hormone therapy in other aspects and might cause more side effects like acne and hair loss.
research Frontiers in the (Neuro-)endocrine Controls of Hair Growth
Hair growth and health are influenced by stress and hormones.
research Chromium supplementation in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: Systematic review and meta-analysis
Chromium supplements don't improve insulin, hormone levels, or cholesterol in women with PCOS but raise testosterone levels.
research Is polycystic ovary syndrome a sexual conflict? A review
The conclusion suggests that PCOS may persist due to genetic traits that, while harmful for female fertility, could have provided survival and reproductive benefits to males.
research Long-term dutasteride therapy in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia alters glucose and lipid profiles and increases severity of erectile dysfunction
Long-term use of dutasteride for enlarged prostate may worsen blood sugar, cholesterol, and erectile dysfunction.
research Study of seed hair growth in Populus tomentosa, an important character of female floral bud development
Poplar seed hairs grow from the placenta at the ovary base, with endoreduplication playing a key role in their development, and share similar cellulose synthesis processes with cotton fibers.
