Research
120-150 / 1000+ results research The human hair follicle has established a fully functional peripheral equivalent of the hypothamalic‐pituitary‐adrenal‐axis (HPA)
Human hair follicles can produce stress hormones like the body's main stress response system.
research Rare and Underappreciated Causes of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Some lesser-known causes of PCOS include autoimmune issues, genetic mutations, and changes in the body's microbiome.
research 46, XY Disorder of Sexual Development with Ambiguous Female External Genitalia: A Case Report
A 13-year-old with 46 XY DSD had ambiguous genitalia due to incomplete masculinization.
research Risk of Abnormal Pregnancy Completing Chemotherapy for Gestational Trophoblastic Tumor
After chemotherapy for a gestational trophoblastic tumor, normal pregnancy rates are possible, but there's a slightly higher risk of the tumor reoccurring in future pregnancies.
research Schmallenberg virus infection suspected in a calf born to an imported heifer
A calf in Scotland likely had Schmallenberg virus from its mother.
research Hypothyroidism And Stress-A Review Article
Stress may contribute to the development of hypothyroidism, and both modern and Ayurvedic treatments can manage the condition.
research Alopecia areata – hyperactivity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis is a myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
research Dissecting hair breakage in alopecia areata: the central role of dysregulated cysteine homeostasis
Disrupted cysteine metabolism may cause hair breakage in Alopecia Areata, suggesting potential treatments like N-acetylcysteine.
research Follikelhormone
Follicle Stimulating Hormone is important for fertility.
research In vitro methodology, hormonal and nutritional effects and fibre production in isolated ovine and caprine anagen hair follicles
Angora goat hair grows faster and produces more protein than cashmere goat hair, and certain hormones and nutrients positively affect hair growth and protein synthesis.
research The Human Sebocyte Culture Model Provides New Insights into Development and Management of Seborrhoea and Acne
The human sebocyte culture model has improved understanding of oily skin and acne, and how they can be treated.
research Recent Advances in Drug Design and Drug Discovery for Androgen- Dependent Diseases
New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.
research Different synaptic stimulation patterns influence the local androgenic and estrogenic neurosteroid availability triggering hippocampal synaptic plasticity in the male rat
The availability of certain hormones and specific stimulation patterns affect long-term synaptic changes in the male rat brain.
research Relative binding affinity of novel steroids to androgen receptors in hamster prostate
New steroids were effective in blocking male hormone receptors in hamster prostates.
research Hormonal and Genetic Controls of Hirsutism: Link Between hyperprolactinemia, Polycystic ovary syndrome and Hirsutism
Hormones, genes, and oxidative stress interact to cause hirsutism and PCOS.
research Androgens and androgen receptor action in skin and hair follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Hormonal Effects on Hair Follicles
Hormones like testosterone and estrogen significantly affect hair growth and structure.
research Androgen action on human skin – from basic research to clinical significance
Hormones like testosterone affect skin functions and can cause skin issues when in excess; treatments to manage these effects are only somewhat effective.
research Sex‐dependent responsiveness of hippocampal neurons to sex neurosteroids: A role of Arc/Arg3.1
Sex hormones affect brain cells differently in males and females.
research Locally Synthetized 17-β-Estradiol Reverses Amyloid-β-42-Induced Hippocampal Long-Term Potentiation Deficits
A brain-made hormone can protect against memory-related brain damage caused by harmful proteins.
research Auxin and ethylene: collaborators or competitors?
Auxin and ethylene hormones both work together and against each other to control plant growth.
research Hormonal prevention of prostate cancer
Suppressing certain hormones might help prevent prostate cancer.
research Integration of Ethylene and Auxin Signaling and the Developmental Consequences of Their Crosstalk
Ethylene and auxin hormones interact in complex ways that are essential for plant growth and development.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Approaching fertility in congenital adrenal hyperplasia: exploring P30L mutation-induced 21-hydroxylase deficiency with a presentation between non-classical and simple virilizing phenotypes. A case report
A woman with a specific mutation causing adrenal gland issues faced fertility problems, but careful hormone therapy helped her manage it successfully.
research Plasma androgens and the presence and course of depression in a large cohort of men
Testosterone levels aren't important for depression in men, but some other hormones might affect certain symptoms.
research BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF ANTIANDROGENS
Antiandrogens may help treat conditions like excessive hair growth, prostate tumors, male baldness, and acne by blocking male hormone effects.
research [Effects of androgens on the skin. Therpeutic implications].
Androgens affect skin conditions like acne and hirsutism, treatable with hormone therapy and other methods.
research Germacrene Analogs are Anti-androgenic on Androgen-dependent Cells
Germacrene analogs, especially 8-Hydroxy germacrene B, are more effective than germacrone at blocking a hormone-related enzyme and could help treat hair loss.
