research Androgens Affect the Activity of Human Sebocytes in Culture in a Manner Dependent on the Localization of the Sebaceous Glands and Their Effect Is Antagonized by Spironolactone
Male hormones affect oil-producing skin cells differently based on their body location, and the drug spironolactone can reduce these effects.
research Divergent neuroactive steroid responses to stress and ethanol in rat and mouse strains: relevance for human studies
Stress and alcohol affect brain chemicals differently in rats, mice, and humans, influenced by genetic differences.
research The Thyroid Hormone Analogue KB2115 (Eprotirome) Prolongs Human Hair Growth (Anagen) Ex Vivo
KB2115 (eprotirome) can safely extend the hair growth phase without damaging cells or changing hair color.
research Acne keloidalis nuchae: risk factors and associated disorders – a retrospective study
The study suggests that acne keloidalis nuchae is linked to conditions like pseudofolliculitis barbae, scalp infections, metabolic syndrome, and is more common in males with an average onset age of 25.4 years.
