New nano composite helps reduce scars and regrow hair during burn wound healing.
research Proton Affinitive Derivatization for Highly Sensitive Determination of Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone in Saliva Samples by LC-ESI-MS/MS
Using 5-butylpicolinate esters improves the sensitivity and reliability of detecting testosterone and dihydrotestosterone in saliva.
research Pharmacokinetics of Modified Slow-Release Oral Testosterone Over 9 Days in Normal Men With Experimental Hypogonadism
The new oral testosterone pill normalized testosterone levels and lowered SHBG in men with low testosterone.
research Genetic variants in AR and SHBG and resistance to hormonal castration in prostate cancer
Certain genetic variants increase the risk of resistance to hormone therapy in prostate cancer patients.
research Pharmacokinetics of 2 Novel Formulations of Modified-Release Oral Testosterone Alone and With Finasteride in Normal Men With Experimental Hypogonadism
New oral testosterone formulations show potential for safer, effective hormone replacement in men with low testosterone.
research miR-29 is an important driver of aging-related phenotypes
miR-29 is a key factor that accelerates aging.
research Letters to Dermatology
Stopping forehead irritation and using hydrocortisone helped a man's skin, Martinique has lower melanoma rates, a man had an allergy to a specific antifungal, another had unexplained cysts, certain drugs can cause skin reactions without always being interrelated, a link between Fanconi anemia and a skin condition was suggested, high levels of a certain protein may play a role in a type of psoriasis, and there's a need to study the connection between scalp pain and hair loss.
research A Case Report of Tinea Capitis in Children: Utility of Trichoscopy
Trichoscopy helps diagnose and monitor the treatment of fungal scalp infections in children.
research Estudio dermatológico y psiquiátrico en pacientes con alopecia areata
Personality traits significantly affect the onset, progression, and psychological impact of alopecia areata.
research Past and Future Strategies for GPCR Deorphanization
Finding functions for unknown GPCRs is hard but key for making new drugs.
research An isotope dilution-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-based candidate reference measurement procedure for the quantification of 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone in human serum and plasma
The procedure accurately measures 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone in blood, useful for standard tests.
research Neuroprotective and immunomodulatory effects of human hair follicle stem cells on streptozotocin-induced memory impairment in rats: insights into inflammation and neurotrophic mechanisms
Human hair follicle stem cells improved memory and brain health in rats.
research Variation in Muskox (Ovibos moschatus) Guard Hair Growth Rates: Implications for Measuring Chronological Biomarkers
Muskox hair growth rates vary widely, so a single growth rate can't be used for all populations.
research Application of second near infrared fluorescence imaging to trace CelTrac1000-labeled hair follicle epidermal neural crest stem cells in repairing rat facial nerve defects
NIR-II imaging effectively tracked stem cells that helped repair facial nerve defects in rats.
