Some skin conditions are common during pregnancy and can be safely treated without affecting the pregnancy outcome.
research Considerations in genetic counseling of transgender patients: Cultural competencies and altered disease risk profiles
Genetic counselors should be culturally skilled and aware of transgender patients' unique health risks and needs.
research A comparative analysis of immune privilege in pregnancy and cancer in the context of checkpoint blockade immunotherapy
The document concludes that pregnancy and cancer share immune evasion tactics, but more research is needed before using checkpoint blockade immunotherapy in pregnant cancer patients to avoid harm to the placenta.
research The Notch Intracellular Domain Has an RBPj-Independent Role during Mouse Hair Follicular Development
The Notch signaling pathway helps in mouse hair development through a noncanonical mechanism that does not rely on RBPj or transcription.
research Human epithelial stem cell survival within their niche requires “tonic” cannabinoid receptor 1‐signalling—Lessons from the hair follicle
Cannabinoid receptor-1 signaling is essential for the survival and growth of human hair follicle stem cells.
research Perforins Expression by Cutaneous Gamma Delta T Cells
Gamma delta T cells in the skin help with healing and defense but can also cause autoimmune issues, and more research is needed to understand how they are activated.
research Finasteride and androgenic alopecia; from therapeutic options to medical implications
Finasteride can treat hair loss, but may have side effects; evaluate and inform patients of risks.
research Cultural Sensitivity and Challenges in Management of the Transgender Patient With ESRD in Transplantation
Healthcare providers need better understanding and cultural sensitivity to improve care for transgender patients with kidney failure needing transplants.
research Androgen receptor activation integrates complex transcriptional effects in osteoblasts, involving the growth factors TGF-β and IGF-I, and transcription factor C/EBPδ
DHT affects bone growth by altering gene activity in osteoblasts, potentially complicating steroid use.
research Management of Recurrent Ischemic Priapism 2014: A Complex Condition with Devastating Consequences
