Neurosteroids are crucial for stress response, and targeting specific receptors may help treat certain disorders.
research 11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 inhibitors for the treatment of type 2 diabetes
Inhibitors of 11β-HSD1 show potential for treating type 2 diabetes but require more testing for safety and effectiveness.
research Physiology of the Hypothalamic Pituitary Gonadal Axis in the Male
The document explains how the male reproductive system works, its role in making testosterone, and how conditions like obesity can disrupt it, leading to low testosterone and fertility issues.
research Sex differences in the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis’ response to stress: an important role for gonadal hormones
Male and female bodies respond differently to stress, influenced by hormones and development stages, with implications for stress-related diseases.
research Chronic Stress Suppresses the Expression of Cutaneous Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Adrenocortical Axis Elements and Melanogenesis
Chronic stress can reduce skin pigmentation.
research Assessment of a Bidirectional Association Between Major Depressive Disorder and Alopecia Areata
People with Major Depressive Disorder have a higher chance of getting Alopecia Areata, and vice versa; antidepressants may lower this risk.
research The local hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis in cultured human dermal papilla cells
Stress hormone CRF can cause hair loss by affecting hair growth cells and hormones.
research Alopecia areata – hyperactivity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis is a myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
research The Circular RNA CircCOL1A1 Functions as a miR-149-5p Sponge to Regulate the Formation of Superior-Quality Brush Hair via the CMTM3/AR Axis
A specific RNA molecule, circCOL1A1, affects the growth and quality of goat hair by interacting with miR-149-5p and influencing cell growth pathways.
research Major approaches of molecular and physiopathological mechanisms for hormonal treatment of melasma: a systematic review
Estrogens and progesterone are key in regulating melasma pigmentation.
research Insights into the context-dependent immunological roles of the CXCL12–CXCR4 axis in alopecia
Blocking the CXCL12–CXCR4 axis may help treat hair loss in alopecia.
research 780 Novel mechanism of UVB-mediated pigmentation through the axis of ATP-P2X7
Scientists discovered a new way UVB light increases skin pigmentation through the ATP-P2X7 pathway.
research BMP-FGF Signaling Axis Mediates Wnt-Induced Epidermal Stratification in Developing Mammalian Skin
Wnt signaling is essential for forming the skin's spinous layer through a BMP-FGF pathway.
research Prolactin: an emerging force along the cutaneous–endocrine axis
Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research Critical Role of ATP-P2X7 Axis in UV-Induced Melanogenesis
ATP increases melanin production in skin after UV exposure, with the P2X7 receptor being crucial for this process.
