research Climacteric Commentaries
Long-term estrogen therapy in postmenopausal women can improve certain health markers, hair loss is common regardless of hormone use, stopping estrogen doesn't increase breast cancer risk, smoking does, and a balanced BMI is linked to lower mortality.
research 200 The relationship between the expression of cytokeratin 5/6 and clinicopathologic factors in invasive breast carcinoma
CK 5/6 expression in breast cancer is linked to negative hormone receptor status and higher tumor grade.
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 Ganoderma lucidum extract attenuates corticotropin-releasing hormone induced cellular senescence in human hair follicle cells
Ganoderma lucidum extract may help treat stress-related hair loss.
research Postmenopausal Ovarian Hyperthecosis Associated with Rapid Testosterone Excess
Removing both ovaries can treat increased testosterone and related symptoms in postmenopausal women with ovarian hyperthecosis.
research Anti-proliferative effect of terpenes on human prostate cáncer cells: natural sources and their potential role as chemopreventive agents.
Certain natural compounds called terpenes may help prevent prostate cancer.
research Crystal structure of steroid reductase SRD5A reveals conserved steroid reduction mechanism
The structure of SRD5A reveals how it reduces steroids, aiding drug design for related health conditions.
research Selected variants of the steroid-5-alpha-reductase isoforms SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 and the sex steroid hormone receptors ESR1, ESR2 and PGR: No association with female pattern hair loss identified
No link found between specific genes and female pattern hair loss.
research Vitex negundo: A comprehensive review of phytoconstituents, their derivatives, and therapeutic applications
Vitex negundo has potential health benefits, including anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects.
research Epidemiological study of prostate cancer (EPICAP): a population-based case–control study in France
Circadian rhythm disruption, chronic inflammation, hormones, metabolism, and genetics may increase prostate cancer risk.
research Evaluation and Treatment of Gender Dysphoria to Prepare for Gender Confirmation Surgery
The document concludes that non-operative treatment for gender dysphoria is safe and effective, and hormone therapy does not increase cancer risk.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Prevention and management of dermatological toxicities related to anticancer agents: ESMO Clinical Practice Guidelines☆
