research Androgen Conjugates: Physiology and Clinical Significance
Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.
research Idiopathic Hirsutism*
The document concludes that more research is needed to understand excessive hair growth in women with normal hormone levels and regular ovulation.
research Clinical application of 5α-reductase inhibitors
5α-reductase inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, effectively treat BPH, male baldness, and hirsutism, with potential for acne and prostate cancer prevention.
research Hair cycle control by leptin as a new anagen inducer
Leptin, a hormone, is important for starting hair growth.
research Detection of hair-microRNAs as the novel potent biomarker: Evaluation of the usefulness for the diagnosis of scleroderma
Hair microRNAs could be effective biomarkers for diagnosing scleroderma.
research Androgens in women
Hormone treatments can help with women's skin and hair disorders, but they need careful monitoring and more research.
research ANTIANDROGEN THERAPY IN DERMATOLOGY
Antiandrogens can help treat skin conditions like acne and excessive hair in women when used carefully.
research Hypersensitivity Reactions to Anticoagulant Drugs
Allergic reactions to blood thinners are rare but can be serious, requiring careful management and alternative treatments.
research Finasteride is the main inhibitor of 5α-reductase activity in microdissected dermal papillae of human hair follicles
Finasteride potentially treats hair loss by reducing DHT production.
research DHT deficiency perturbs the integrity of the rat seminiferous epithelium by disrupting tight and adherens junctions
DHT deficiency can disrupt cell connections in rat testes, possibly affecting fertility.
research Expression Profiling and Cellular Localization of Genes Associated with the Hair Cycle Induced by Wax Depilation
Researchers found new genes involved in hair growth, which could help develop new hair treatments.
research Size Polymorphisms in the Human Ultrahigh Sulfur Hair Keratin-Associated Protein 4, KAP4, Gene Family
The study found that variations in hair protein genes are likely due to evolutionary deletions or duplications.
research The mRNA for Protease Nexin-1 is Expressed in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and its Level is Affected by Androgen
Human skin cells contain Protease Nexin-1, and male hormones can decrease its levels, potentially affecting hair growth.
research Isolation and Characterization of Sweat Gland Myoepithelial Cells from Human Skin
Human sweat glands contain stem cells capable of self-renewal and forming different cell types.
research Calcium regulation of stem cells
Calcium is important for stem cell function and maintenance, especially in blood and skin cells.
research Advances in male hormone substitution therapy
New treatments for low male hormones improved sexual function and mood but had unclear risks, especially for older men.
research Androgens modulate keratinocyte differentiation indirectly through enhancing growth factor production from dermal fibroblasts
Male hormones indirectly affect skin cell development by increasing growth factor levels from skin fibroblasts.
research Novel inhibitors of 5α-reductase
New research is needed to create better drugs that block the enzyme responsible for conditions like male baldness and prostate enlargement.
research The 5alpha-reductase type 1, but not type 2, gene is expressed in anagen hairs plucked from the vertex area of the scalp of hirsute women and normal individuals
The gene SDR5A1 is found in scalp hair of both hirsute and normal individuals, but it does not explain differences in hair growth.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors, Chemical and Clinical Models
Researchers developed a model to predict how well certain compounds can block an enzyme related to hair loss and prostate issues, suggesting a 50 mg dose of finasteride might be effective based on lab and body data.
research Case 21-2012
The patient was diagnosed with anorexia nervosa and severe malnutrition, requiring urgent refeeding and monitoring.
research Inhibition of steroid 5 alpha-reductase with finasteride: sleep-related erections, potency, and libido in healthy men.
Finasteride doesn't affect erections much, but may decrease libido in men.
research In vivo monitoring of hair cycle stages via bioluminescence imaging of hair follicle NG2 cells
Bioluminescence imaging can track hair follicle cells and help study hair regrowth.
research Antiandrogen therapy for androgenetic alopecia
Antiandrogen therapy helps treat genetic hair loss.
research 3,4,5-Tri-O-Caffeoylquinic Acid Promoted Hair Pigmentation Through β-Catenin and Its Target Genes
A substance called TCQA could potentially darken hair by activating certain genes and increasing melanin.
research Structure and hair follicle-specific expression of genes encoding the rat high sulfur protein B2 family
The B2 genes are crucial for hair growth in rats.
research Dihydrotestosterone Induces Proliferation, Migration, and Invasion of Human Glioblastoma Cell Lines
Dihydrotestosterone increases growth and spread of human brain cancer cells, and blocking its formation might help treat this cancer.
research Gene Expression Profiling of the Intact Dermal Sheath Cup of Human Hair Follicles
Researchers found specific genes in the part of hair follicles that could help treat hair disorders.
research Therapeutic indications and other use-case-driven updates in the drug ontology: anti-malarials, anti-hypertensives, opioid analgesics, and a large term request
The Drug Ontology was updated to better classify drugs for hypertension, malaria, and opioid abuse, and to allow for more accurate research queries.
