research Androgens and androgen receptor action in skin and hair follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
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 Vasoactive intestinal peptide, whose receptor-mediated signalling may be defective in alopecia areata, provides protection from hair follicle immune privilege collapse
A substance called VIP might protect hair follicles from being attacked by the immune system, and problems with VIP signaling could lead to hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Polymeric micelle mediated follicular delivery of spironolactone: Targeting the mineralocorticoid receptor to prevent glucocorticoid-induced activation and delayed cutaneous wound healing
Using polymeric micelles to deliver spironolactone topically could improve wound healing in skin affected by glucocorticoids.

CDK4/6 inhibitors have improved treatment outcomes for certain advanced breast cancer patients.
research Epidermal growth factor receptor mutant T790M-L858R-V948R inhibitor from Calophyllum inophyllum L. leaf as potential non-small cell lung cancer drugs
A compound from Calophyllum inophyllum L. leaf may help treat non-small cell lung cancer.
research Genotype-phenotype correlation in boys with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia
Boys with less severe EDA mutations in XLHED have milder symptoms and better sweat and hair production.
research Dihydrotestosterone-induced hair regrowth inhibition by activating androgen receptor in C57BL6 mice simulates androgenetic alopecia
DHT stops hair regrowth in mice, similar to human hair loss.
research The direct inhibitory effect of dutasteride or finasteride on androgen receptor activity is cell line specific
Dutasteride and finasteride affect different cell types differently.
research Analysis of androgen receptor expression and activity in the mouse brain
Androgen receptors in the mouse brain may explain cognitive and mood changes in prostate cancer treatment.
research Analysis of the expression pattern of the carrier protein transthyretin and its receptor megalin in the human scalp skin and hair follicles: hair cycle-associated changes
The proteins transthyretin and megalin are more present in the growth phase of hair, suggesting they might affect hair health and growth.
research Treatment of hyperandrogenic alopecia in women
Flutamide may slightly improve hair loss in women, but finasteride does not work.
research Loss‐of‐function of Endothelin receptor type A results in Oro‐Oto‐Cardiac syndrome
A mutation in the EDNRA gene causes Oro-Oto-Cardiac syndrome, affecting face and heart development.
research Transient Ca2+ entry by plasmalogen-mediated activation of receptor potential cation channel promotes AMPK activity
Plasmalogens activate a channel in cells that may stimulate hair growth.
