research Androgen‐inducible TGF‐β1 from balding dermal papilla cells inhibits epithelial cell growth: a clue to understanding paradoxical effects of androgen on human hair growth
Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.
research Ultrashort peptide nanofibrous hydrogels for the acceleration of healing of burn wounds
Peptide hydrogels heal burn wounds faster and better than standard dressings.
research Androgenetic alopecia and microinflammation
Inflammation may be linked to hair loss, and targeting specific enzymes could help treat it.
research Recognition and management of Staphylococcus aureus toxin‐mediated disease
Early detection and intensive treatment of diseases caused by Staphylococcus aureus toxins are crucial for reducing severe health effects.
research Incorporation of Isotopically Labeled Cocaine and Metabolites into Human Hair: 1. Dose-Response Relationships
Hair analysis can detect cocaine use but doesn't accurately show the amount or timing of use.
research Increased androgen bioavailability is associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with PCOS and higher androgen levels are more likely to have fatty liver disease.
research Biochemical Testing of the Thyroid: TSH is the Best and, Oftentimes, Only Test Needed – A Review for Primary Care
TSH is usually the only test needed to check thyroid function in primary care.
research Thyroid Hormones Directly Alter Human Hair Follicle Functions: Anagen Prolongation and Stimulation of Both Hair Matrix Keratinocyte Proliferation and Hair Pigmentation
Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.
research Short‐ and Long‐Term Clinical Skin Effects of Testosterone Treatment in Trans Men
Testosterone treatment in trans men increases body and facial hair and may lead to hair loss over time, but severe skin issues are rare.
research The Effects of Transdermal Dihydrotestosterone in the Aging Male: A Prospective, Randomized, Double Blind Study
Dihydrotestosterone gel improved well-being and sexual function in older men without negatively affecting prostate health.
research Androgen Dependence of Hirsutism, Acne, and Alopecia in Women
Hirsutism is more linked to high androgen levels than acne or hair loss, and a mix of hormonal tests is best for diagnosis; certain treatments can reduce symptoms.
research Immunohistochemical localization of types 1 and 2 5α-reductase in human scalp
The study found that two enzymes linked to hair loss are located in different parts of the scalp, supporting a common treatment's effectiveness.
research Diagnosis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The definition of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome may change with new research, and careful screening is key for managing the condition.
research Polymorphisms of the Androgen Receptor Gene and the Estrogen Receptor β Gene Are Associated with Androgen Levels in Women1
Certain genetic variations in the AR and ERβ genes can affect androgen levels in women.
research Sex hormone binding globulin - an important biomarker for predicting PCOS risk: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Lower SHBG levels may increase the risk of PCOS.
research Extracellular Matrix Degradation Products and Low-Oxygen Conditions Enhance the Regenerative Potential of Perivascular Stem Cells
Low-oxygen conditions and ECM degradation products increase the healing abilities of perivascular stem cells.
research No evidence for the immunocompetence handicap hypothesis in male humans
Higher free testosterone levels in men are linked to a stronger immune response, not weaker.
research Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS)
The document concludes that rapid identification, isolation, and strict infection control are crucial to manage SARS outbreaks.
research Prevalence of polycystic ovaries in women with androgenic alopecia
Women with androgenic alopecia are more likely to have polycystic ovaries and higher androgen levels, which may indicate PCOS.
research Activation of Cytoprotective Prostaglandin Synthase-1 by Minoxidil as a Possible Explanation for Its Hair Growth-Stimulating Effect
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by activating PGHS-1.
research Genome-wide association study identifies a new locus JMJD1C at 10q21 that may influence serum androgen levels in men
A new gene, JMJD1C, may affect testosterone levels in men.
research Melatonin increases anagen hair rate in women with androgenetic alopecia or diffuse alopecia: results of a pilot randomized controlled trial
Melatonin helps hair growth in women with hair loss.
research Identification of Androgen-Inducible TGF-β1 Derived from Dermal Papilla Cells as a Key Mediator in Androgenetic Alopecia
TGF-β1 from dermal papilla cells suppresses hair growth, and targeting it may help treat androgenetic alopecia.
research Ovarian Morphology Is a Marker of Heritable Biochemical Traits in Sisters with Polycystic Ovaries
Polycystic ovarian shape is a genetic sign of PCOS and its hormonal and metabolic features can be inherited.
research The Effect of 5α-Reductase Inhibition With Dutasteride and Finasteride on Bone Mineral Density, Serum Lipoproteins, Hemoglobin, Prostate Specific Antigen and Sexual Function in Healthy Young Men
Dutasteride and finasteride do not significantly affect bone density, blood fats, or blood production, but slightly lower PSA levels and minimally impact sexual function in healthy young men.
research Physical Changes, Laboratory Parameters, and Bone Mineral Density During Testosterone Treatment in Adolescents with Gender Dysphoria
Testosterone treatment effectively causes male physical development in transgender male adolescents but may lead to side effects like acne, higher BMI and blood pressure, lower good cholesterol, and decreased bone density.
research PCOS in adolescents
PCOS in teens is hard to diagnose, linked to genetics and lifestyle, and managed with weight loss and medication.
research Low sex hormone-binding globulin is associated with low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and metabolic syndrome in women with PCOS
Women with PCOS who have low SHBG are more likely to have low good cholesterol and metabolic syndrome.
research 5α-reductase inhibition and hair growth promotion of some Thai plants traditionally used for hair treatment
Some Thai plants, especially Carthamus tinctorius, could help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth without adverse effects.
