research Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone, a Novel, Locally Produced Modulator of Human Epidermal Functions, Is Regulated by Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone and Thyroid Hormones
The skin produces and responds to thyroid-stimulating hormone, which is controlled by other thyroid-related hormones.
research Extraction and Analysis of Cortisol from Human and Monkey Hair
The method effectively measures long-term stress levels using hair samples.
research Hippocampal 3α,5α-THP may alter depressive behavior of pregnant and lactating rats
Higher 3α,5α-THP levels in the brain may reduce depression in pregnant rats.
research Correlation of cortisol in 1-cm hair segment with salivary cortisol in human: hair cortisol as an endogenous biomarker
Hair cortisol levels can reflect salivary cortisol levels in humans.
research Targeting the pre-receptor metabolism of cortisol as a novel therapy in obesity and diabetes
Blocking a specific enzyme might help treat obesity and diabetes, but more research is needed to ensure it's safe.
research Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
