research Wnt signaling in skin organogenesis
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.
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 Recent advances in the molecular mechanisms determining tissue sensitivity to glucocorticoids: novel mutations, circadian rhythm and ligand-induced repression of the human glucocorticoid receptor
New findings explain how genetic changes, body clocks, and certain molecules affect tissue response to stress hormones.
research Pathogenesis of Cardiovascular Alterations in Dogs Treated with Minoxidil
Using minoxidil on dogs can cause serious cardiovascular damage, including arterial injury and hemorrhagic lesions.
research Long-term treatment of severe hypertension with minoxidil, propranolol and furosemide.
Minoxidil, propranolol, and furosemide effectively control severe hypertension, but may cause sodium retention.
research 8 Hair follicles and associated glands as androgen targets
Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.
research Chrousos syndrome: from molecular pathogenesis to therapeutic management
The review suggests thorough evaluation and genetic testing for proper diagnosis and treatment of Chrousos syndrome.
research Anti-androgenic effect of sesquiterpenes isolated from the rhizomes of Curcuma aeruginosa Roxb.
Germacrone from Curcuma aeruginosa may help treat conditions related to male hormones by blocking a specific enzyme.
research Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist Treatment in Postmenopausal Women with Hyperandrogenism of Ovarian Origin
Treatment with a hormone agonist can reduce excess male hormones in postmenopausal women without surgery.
research An unusual presentation of dermatomyositis: The type Wong variant revisited
A woman with dermatomyositis showed rare skin symptoms, was treated successfully, and her case suggests checking for cancer in similar patients.
research Efficacy and Side Effects of Drugs Commonly Used for the Treatment of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Associated With Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Different drugs for prostate-related urinary symptoms work but have various side effects, and treatment should be tailored to the individual.
research Increased levels of prostaglandin-like material in the canine blood during arterial hypotension produced by hydralazine, dihydralazine and minoxidil
These drugs raise prostaglandin-like material in dog blood, possibly causing blood vessel widening.
research Negative Impact of Testosterone Deficiency and 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Therapy on Metabolic and Sexual Function in Men
Low testosterone and 5α-reductase inhibitors can harm men's metabolic and sexual health; testosterone therapy may help, but discussing 5α-RIs' side effects is important.
research Clinical relevance of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone metabolism in women
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone play a role in women's health issues like excess hair and baldness, and treatments blocking these hormones may help.
research Exercise activates the PI3K-AKT signal pathway by decreasing the expression of 5α-reductase type 1 in PCOS rats
Exercise improves insulin sensitivity and hormone regulation in PCOS rats.
research Conditional knock out of N-WASP in keratinocytes causes skin barrier defects and atopic dermatitis-like inflammation
N-WASP is essential for healthy skin and preventing inflammation.
research Minoxidil Therapy in Refractory Hypertension Analysis of 155 Patients
Minoxidil lowers blood pressure effectively but may cause side effects.
research The Pharmacokinetics of 2.5- to 10-mg Oral Doses of Minoxidil in Healthy Volunteers
This document studied minoxidil in healthy volunteers. Minoxidil is quickly absorbed and eliminated from the body.
research The topography of fibrous scaffolds modulates the paracrine function of Ad-MSCs in the regeneration of skin tissues
The shape of fibrous scaffolds can improve how stem cells help heal skin.
research Age dependence of the cardiac lesions induced by minoxidil in the rat
Older rats more affected by minoxidil's cardiotoxic effects than younger rats.
research Bone vs. fat: Embryonic origin of progenitors determines response to androgen in adipocytes and osteoblasts
Androgens affect bone and fat cell development differently based on the cells' embryonic origin.
research What is the Rationale for Androgen Therapy for Women?
Testosterone therapy can help improve mood, sexual function, and bone health in women with low androgen levels, but more research is needed to establish safe and effective guidelines.
research HAIR MATRIX CELL KINETICS: A SELECTIVE REVIEW
