research Neurosteroid Synthesis-Mediated Regulation of GABAAReceptors: Relevance to the Ovarian Cycle and Stress
Ovarian and stress hormones can change GABA A receptors through neurosteroids.
research Timing of expression of the core clock gene Bmal1 influences its effects on aging and survival
The timing of when the gene Bmal1 is active affects aging and survival, with its absence during development, not adulthood, leading to premature aging.
research 5α-reductase activity in the prostate
Blocking the enzyme 5α-reductase can shrink the prostate and help treat enlarged prostate issues.
research Towards a molecular understanding of hair loss and its treatment
Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.
research Use of cyproterone acetate (CPA) in the treatment of acne, hirsutism and virilism
Cyproterone acetate is effective for acne but less so for hirsutism and alopecia, with some side effects and quick menstrual cycle recovery after treatment.
