30 / 1000+ results research Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Thyroid Axis Hormones Stimulate Mitochondrial Function and Biogenesis in Human Hair Follicles
HPT axis hormones boost mitochondrial function and growth in hair follicles, potentially aiding hair health.
research Function and underlying mechanisms of seasonal colour moulting in mammals and birds: what keeps them changing in a warming world?
Animals that change color with the seasons mainly do so in response to daylight changes, but climate change is causing camouflage problems that may require evolutionary changes.
research The human hair follicle has established a fully functional peripheral equivalent of the hypothamalic‐pituitary‐adrenal‐axis (HPA)
Human hair follicles can produce stress hormones like the body's main stress response system.
research 562 Neuroendocrinology of human scalp hair follicles: Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) stimulates hair growth and controls a fully functional intrafollicular hypothalamic-pituitary-somatotropic (HPS) signaling axis
Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) boosts hair growth and human scalp hair follicles have their own growth hormone system.
research Acupuncture in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Potential and Challenge
Acupuncture may improve reproductive and metabolic functions in PCOS without negative side effects, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.
research Role of Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in the Pathophysiology and Clinical Manifestations of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
DHEA may play a complex role in PCOS, affecting hormones, metabolism, and symptoms.
research Hair follicles and their role in skin health
Hair follicles are essential for skin health, aiding in hair growth, wound healing, and immune function.
research Role of vitamin D and insulin resistance in polycystic ovary syndrome
Vitamin D helps improve PCOS by aiding insulin function and ovarian health.
research Convergent Genesis of an Adult Neural Crest-Like Dermal Stem Cell from Distinct Developmental Origins
Skin-derived precursors in hair follicles come from different origins but function similarly.
research Microglia: sculptors of the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)-like brain?
Microglia, the brain's immune cells, may contribute to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) by altering the female brain's structure and function, with kisspeptin neurons and GABA neurotransmitters also playing a role.
research TSH is a novel neuroendocrine regulator of selected keratins in the human hair follicle
TSH influences keratin expression in human hair follicles.
research The importance of the neuro‐immuno‐cutaneous system on human skin equivalent design
Human skin models are essential for studying skin's sensory, immune, and nervous system interactions.
research Heterogeneity of neural crest-derived melanocytes
Melanocytes are diverse cells important for pigmentation and skin health, influenced by genetics and environment.
research Adult skin acute stress responses to short‐term environmental and internal aggression from exposome factors
Adult skin quickly reacts to short-term environmental and internal stress, leading to various skin issues and the need for protective measures.
research A neuroendocrinological perspective on human hair follicle pigmentation
Brain hormones significantly affect hair color and could potentially be used to prevent or reverse grey hair.
research Exploring the Impact of the Microbiome on Neuroactive Steroid Levels in Germ-Free Animals
Gut microbes significantly affect brain steroid levels.
research Role of Androgen Receptor in Hypothalamic Regulation of Metabolism and Reproduction
Androgen receptors in the brain affect metabolism and reproduction differently in males and females, and may help manage PCOS symptoms in females.
research Inhibition of 5α‐Reductase Activity in Late Pregnancy Decreases Gestational Length and Fecundity and Impairs Object Memory and Central Progestogen Milieu of Juvenile Rat Offspring
Inhibiting 5α-reductase during late pregnancy shortens gestation, reduces litter size, and harms memory in rat offspring.
