A patient with a nerve disorder died from infection complications after developing insulin resistance from a treatment.
research Musculoskeletal and body composition response to high-dose testosterone with finasteride after chronic incomplete spinal cord injury—a randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled pilot study
Testosterone with finasteride improved muscle and bone health in men with spinal cord injury.
research Identification of an osteopontin-derived peptide that binds neuropilin-1 and activates vascular repair responses and angiogenesis
FOL-026 peptide may help hair growth and cardiovascular health by improving blood flow and cell functions.

Chromosomal differences affect how muscle cells respond to testosterone.
research Sex-Related Differences in the Pharmacological Response in SARS-CoV-2 Infection, Dyslipidemia, and Diabetes Mellitus: A Narrative Review
Men and women respond differently to drugs for COVID-19, high cholesterol, and diabetes, which suggests a need for personalized treatments.
research Characterization of Hair Follicle Antigens Targeted by the Anti-Hair Follicle Immune Response
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder causing hair loss, linked to specific hair follicle antigens and genetic factors.
research Distinct mechanisms for sebaceous gland self-renewal and regeneration provide durability in response to injury
Sebaceous glands can regenerate after injury using stem cells from hair follicles.
research SOCS1 and SOCS3 as key checkpoint molecules in the immune responses associated to skin inflammation and malignant transformation
SOCS1 and SOCS3 help control skin inflammation and are important for developing treatments for skin diseases.
research The effect of GGC and CAG repeat polymorphisms on the androgen receptor gene in response to finasteride therapy in men with androgenetic alopecia
Fewer GGC sequences in the androgen receptor gene improve finasteride treatment for hair loss.
research Reduced plakoglobin increases the risk of sodium current defects and atrial conduction abnormalities in response to androgenic anabolic steroid abuse
Reduced plakoglobin and steroid abuse increase the risk of heart rhythm issues.
research Novel Mutation in the Hemojuvelin Gene (HJV) in a Patient with Juvenile Hemochromatosis Presenting with Insulin-dependent Diabetes Mellitus, Secondary Hypothyroidism and Hypogonadism
A new mutation in the HJV gene was found in a young woman with juvenile hemochromatosis, causing unusual symptoms like secondary hypothyroidism.
research Plasma Diaphanous Related Formin 1 Levels Are Associated with Altered Glucose Metabolism and Insulin Resistance in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Case Control Study
Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) have lower levels of a substance called DIAPH1 in their blood, which is linked to changes in sugar metabolism and insulin resistance.
research Hyperandrogenic eumenorrheic NON-PCOS women versus women with PCOS after the GnRH-agonist stimulation test preceded by suppression of adrenal steroidogenesis with dexamethasone
PCOS women have more severe metabolic issues and higher androgen levels than hyperandrogenic women without PCOS.
research Editorial
Doctors used to view PCOS too narrowly, but now understand that insulin resistance is a key factor in the condition.
research The pubertal presentation of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
Girls with PCOS often start puberty earlier and have signs of insulin resistance from a young age.
research Factors which affect the fibre output of isolated wool follicles maintained in vitro
Wool growth is mainly controlled by external factors and specific proteins, not the follicles themselves.
research Mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) expression is increased in acne patients' skin
Acne patients have higher levels of mTOR in their skin, which could be linked to future metabolic disease.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome and infertility: an update
New treatments for PCOS are improving fertility and managing symptoms better.
research In Search of New Therapeutics—Molecular Aspects of the PCOS Pathophysiology: Genetics, Hormones, Metabolism and Beyond
New treatments are needed for PCOS that target its genetic, hormonal, and metabolic causes.
research Rare and Underappreciated Causes of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Some lesser-known causes of PCOS include autoimmune issues, genetic mutations, and changes in the body's microbiome.
research 6 Current concepts of polycystic ovary syndrome
PCOS is often caused by hormonal imbalances that can lead to various health issues and may indicate a risk for future metabolic and cardiovascular problems.
research Growth of wool follicles in culture
Wool follicles can grow in a lab with the right nutrients and conditions.
research Effect of a transcriptional inactive or absent vitamin D receptor on beta-cell function and glucose homeostasis in mice
Mice without active or present vitamin D receptors maintain normal blood sugar control and islet gene expression when calcium levels are normal.
research Transplanted hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells alleviated small intestinal ischemia–reperfusion injury via intrinsic and paracrine mechanisms in a rat model
Transplanted hair follicle stem cells can heal damaged rat intestines.
