research Common variants in the sex hormone-binding globulin gene (SHBG) and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in Mediterranean women
Certain genetic variations in the SHBG gene are linked to an increased or decreased risk of PCOS in Mediterranean women.
research Proteomic tools for the investigation of human hair structural proteins and evidence of weakness sites on hair keratin coil segments
Hair proteins have weak spots in their α-helical segments.
research p53‐dependent transcriptional regulation of EDA2R and its involvement in chemotherapy‐induced hair loss
The study concludes that the EDA2R gene is activated by p53 during chemotherapy but is not necessary for chemotherapy-induced hair loss.
research Toxic shock syndrome: Recent developments in pathogenesis
Toxic shock syndrome is caused by a complex interaction of bacterial toxins and the immune system, and understanding this can help improve diagnosis and treatment.
research Vitamin D receptor polymorphisms and the polycystic ovary syndrome: A systematic review
The review found no clear link between vitamin D receptor gene variations and polycystic ovary syndrome.

New treatments targeting skin stem cells show promise for skin repair, anti-aging, and cancer therapy.
research Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: Long-Term Health Consequences
Women with PCOS have a higher risk of diabetes, heart problems, certain cancers, and mental health issues, but early treatment can help manage these risks.
research Effect of Dieckol, a Component of Ecklonia cava, on the Promotion of Hair Growth
Dieckol from Ecklonia cava may help hair growth and could be a potential hair loss treatment.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes
