research Alternative treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome: pre-clinical and clinical basis for using plant-based drugs
Plant-based drugs are effective and safe alternatives for managing PCOS symptoms.
research Structure of human steroid 5α-reductase 2 with the anti-androgen drug finasteride
Finasteride irreversibly affects human steroid 5α-reductase 2, providing insight into its catalytic mechanism and disease-related mutations.
research Estrogen-Dependent Ontogeny of Sex Differences in Somatostatin Neurons of the Hypothalamic Periventricular Nucleus*
Male rats have more somatostatin neurons than females due to testosterone converting to estrogen during early development.
research Finasteride, a 5α-reductase inhibitor, potentiates antinociceptive effects of morphine, prevents the development of morphine tolerance and attenuates abstinence behavior in the rat
Finasteride boosts morphine's pain relief, stops tolerance, and reduces withdrawal in rats.
research Is the “Comb Over” Dying? A Mouse Model for Male Pattern Baldness (Androgenic Alopecia)
The mouse model suggests male pattern baldness may be due to an enzyme increasing DHT and higher androgen receptor levels in hair follicles.
research Human epithelial hair follicle stem cells and their progeny: Current state of knowledge, the widening gap in translational research and future challenges
We need more research to better understand human hair follicle stem cells for improved treatments for hair loss and skin cancer.
research Activation of Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid-3 Inhibits Human Hair Growth
Activating TRPV3 stops human hair growth.
research Complex Changes in the Apoptotic and Cell Differentiation Programs during Initiation of the Hair Follicle Response to Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy causes complex changes in hair follicle cells that can lead to hair loss.
research Controversies in plastic surgery: Suction-assisted lipectomy (SAL) and the hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) protocol for obesity treatment
The document concludes that the hCG protocol may help in obesity treatment and could be scientifically justified, but more research is needed.
research Obesity, polycystic ovarian syndrome and thyroid dysfunction in women with epilepsy
Women with epilepsy on certain medications might gain weight and have higher thyroid-stimulating hormone levels, but not more polycystic ovarian syndrome.
research Adenosine Promotes Human Hair Growth and Inhibits Catagen Transition In Vitro: Role of the Outer Root Sheath Keratinocytes
Adenosine helps human hair grow and prevents hair loss by targeting specific cells.
research Mapping cell dynamics in human ex vivo hair follicles suggests pulling mechanism of hair growth
Hair growth may involve a pulling force from the outer root sheath.
research Scalp Sebaceous Physiology
The document concludes that scalp health is influenced by complex factors affecting sebaceous glands, including hormones, aging, and various substances.
research Facial skin aging: an integrative analysis of genetics, epigenetics, and lifestyle factors
Genetics, epigenetics, and lifestyle all influence facial skin aging.
research A Comprehensive Review on Metabolic Syndrome
Managing metabolic syndrome needs both lifestyle changes and medical treatments.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome
PCOS is a complex condition with major health impacts, needing more research for better diagnosis and treatment.
research Androgens and Cardiovascular Disease
Male hormones may play a role in the development of heart disease, and more research is needed to understand their effects.
research Melatonin membrane receptors in peripheral tissues: Distribution and functions
Melatonin affects many body functions beyond sleep by interacting with specific receptors in various tissues.
research Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss with no cure and treatments that often don't work well.
research Phenotypic Plasticity: Driver of Cancer Initiation, Progression, and Therapy Resistance
Understanding phenotypic plasticity is crucial for developing effective cancer therapies.
research Complications of Cushing's syndrome: state of the art
Cushing's syndrome can cause serious health problems, and early treatment is crucial, but some issues may remain after treatment.
research The cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system: securing a place under the sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research Large-scale genome-wide meta-analysis of polycystic ovary syndrome suggests shared genetic architecture for different diagnosis criteria
The research found that PCOS has common genetic factors regardless of how it is diagnosed and is linked to metabolic and reproductive issues.
research Aging and Immortality: Quasi-Programmed Senescence and Its Pharmacologic Inhibition
