research Identification of novel glucocorticoid receptor-regulated genes involved in epidermal homeostasis and hair follicle differentiation
Glucocorticoid receptors help regulate genes important for skin health and hair growth.
research Mitoxantrone

research Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Action of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors May Be Mediated by Dehydroepiandrosterone. Letter.
Certain drugs like Dutasteride and Finasteride might help fight SARS-CoV-2 by increasing levels of a steroid called DHEA, which can protect the heart and increase nitric oxide to counteract the virus.
research Differential activity of 2-methylene-19-nor vitamin D analogs on growth factor gene expression in rhino mouse skin and comparison to all-trans retinoic acid
Some vitamin D analogs can thicken skin and reduce pore size like a common acne treatment, with one analog also affecting skin growth factors.
research Role of GABA-active neurosteroids in the efficacy of metyrapone against cocaine addiction
Neurosteroids may help metyrapone reduce cocaine addiction.
research Use of spironolactone in dermatology.
Spironolactone is used in dermatology to treat skin conditions related to hormones, but is not safe for pregnant women or men.
research Comparative Efficacy and Adverse Clinical Events of Methotrexate versus Azathioprine with Steroid Mini Pulse Therapy in the Management of Moderate to Severe Alopecia Areata: A Tertiary Centre Based Interventional Study
Methotrexate with steroids is slightly more effective than azathioprine with steroids for treating severe alopecia areata.
research Sebocytes are the Key Regulators of Androgen Homeostasis in Human Skin
Sebocytes play a key role in controlling androgen levels in human skin.
research Finasteride/Minoxidil
research Characterization and Management of Adverse Events of Low-Dose Oral Minoxidil Treatment for Alopecia: A Narrative Review
Low-dose oral minoxidil effectively treats alopecia but can cause side effects like excess hair growth and fluid retention.
research Effects of chronic inhibition of Testosterone metabolism on cardiac remodeling after ischemia/reperfusion-induced myocardial damage in gonadectomized rats
Testosterone reduces heart damage and inflammation after injury.
research Intravascular and Interstitial Fluid Dynamics in Rats Treated with Minoxidil
