A three-month treatment with a GnRH agonist significantly lowered androgen levels and 5α-reductase activity in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Androgen receptors and their biology
Androgen receptors are key for development and health, affecting conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness.
research Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) Negatively Regulate Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Growth and Epithelial:Mesenchymal Stem Cell Signaling
SARMs may be an effective treatment for a certain type of breast cancer by blocking cancer growth and spread.
research Therapeutic Strategies to Target the Androgen Receptor
Therapies targeting the androgen receptor are being developed to treat prostate cancer and improve bone and muscle health.
research Management of adverse events and other practical considerations in patients receiving capecitabine (Xeloda®)
Capecitabine is as effective as intravenous treatments with fewer side effects, but requires careful management of Hand-foot syndrome and patient education.
research HSD3B1 Genotypes Conferring Adrenal-Restrictive and Adrenal-Permissive Phenotypes in Prostate Cancer and Beyond
Certain HSD3B1 gene types are linked to worse prostate cancer outcomes and affect treatment response and other health conditions.
research Postscreening follow-up of the Finnish Prostate Cancer Screening Trial on putative prostate cancer risk factors: vitamin and mineral use, male pattern baldness, pubertal development and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use
Late puberty may slightly lower prostate cancer risk, baldness is not linked to overall risk but less so with aggressive types, ibuprofen use may increase risk, and vitamins show no effect on risk.
research Clinical Case Notes. Tamoxifen optic neuropathy
A boy with chromosome 13q deletion syndrome developed eye cancer, a woman with breast cancer lost vision due to a rare side-effect of her treatment, a man's vision worsened after using a hair loss drug, and two rare disorders were discussed. Optical Coherence Tomography is useful for diagnosing and monitoring these conditions.
research Clinical Case Notes. Intraorbital ophthalmic artery aneurysms
Eye exams are crucial for kids with 13q deletion syndrome, tamoxifen can cause vision loss, Propecia may lead to cataracts, Lipoid Proteinosis causes skin bumps, and OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.
research Rapid generation of homogenous tumor spheroid microtissues in a scaffold-free platform for high-throughput screening of a novel combination nanomedicine
A new triple drug system using nanoparticles effectively targets breast tumors in 3D models.
research 5α‐Reductase Inhibitors
Finasteride effectively treats enlarged prostate and male baldness, improves symptoms of hirsutism in women, but doesn't work for acne, and may delay prostate cancer progression with few side effects.
research Sorafenib-Associated Facial Acneiform Eruption
Sorafenib can cause facial acne-like eruptions, which improve after reducing the dose or stopping the drug.
research Cystitis Due to Cytoxan: Case Report
A woman developed severe bladder inflammation after cancer treatment with Cytoxan.
research High incidence of severe hand–foot syndrome during capecitabine–docetaxel combination chemotherapy
About half the patients treated with capecitabine and docetaxel developed severe hand-foot syndrome.
research Clinical Case Notes. Lipoid proteinosis: a rare disorder with pathognomonic lid lesions
A baby boy with 13q deletion syndrome had eye cancer, a woman's vision improved after stopping a breast cancer drug, a man developed cataracts from using Propecia, and a rare skin disorder called Lipoid Proteinosis was discussed. Also, a tool called OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.
