research Estrogens and aging skin
Estrogen therapy can reduce skin aging but has cancer risks.
research Fadrozole and finasteride exposures modulate sex steroid- and thyroid hormone-related gene expression in Silurana (Xenopus) tropicalis early larval development
Fadrozole and finasteride change gene expression related to sex hormones and thyroid hormones in frog larvae development.
research The human gut chemical landscape predicts microbe-mediated biotransformation of foods and drugs
The study developed a tool to predict how gut microbes process foods and drugs, showing that similar compounds often share metabolic pathways and effects.
research Hibiscus rosa sinensis Linn. Petals Modulates Glycogen Metabolism and Glucose Homeostasis Signalling Pathway in Streptozotocin-Induced Experimental Diabetes
Hibiscus petals helped control blood sugar and improve liver and pancreas health in diabetic rats.
research Expression of type 1 5α-reductase and metabolism of testosterone in reconstructed human epidermis (SkinEthic®): a new model for screening skin-targeted androgen modulators
The study created a new method to test drugs that affect hormone processing in skin.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Hormonal regulation of hair follicles exhibits a biological paradox
Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.
research Integral Roles of Specific Proteoglycans in Hair Growth and Hair Loss: Mechanisms behind the Bioactivity of Proteoglycan Replacement Therapy with Nourkrin® with Marilex® in Pattern Hair Loss and Telogen Effluvium
Proteoglycans are important for hair growth, and a specific treatment can help reduce hair loss.
research Is dehydroepiandrosterone a hormone?
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.
research Indian Gooseberry (Emblica officinalisGaertn.)
Indian Gooseberry has potential for cancer prevention and treatment and promotes hair growth.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research 46,XY DSD due to impaired androgen production
Impaired androgen production in 46,XY DSDs causes ambiguous genitalia and requires long-term care.
research In vitro selective inhibition of human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A4 by finasteride, and prediction of in vivo drug–drug interactions
Finasteride affects UGT1A4 enzyme, but not enough to cause issues when combined with other drugs.
research 5α-Reductase isozymes and aromatase mRNA levels in plucked hair from young women with female pattern hair loss
Higher enzyme levels found in women with hair loss, suggesting hormone imbalance.
research Gene expression of type 2 17β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in scalp hairs of hirsute women
Hirsute women have lower type 2 17β-HSD enzyme levels, which improve with treatment.
research Bioactives in Chinese Proprietary Medicine Modulates 5α-Reductase Activity and Gene Expression Associated with Androgenetic Alopecia
Chinese medicine may help treat hair loss by affecting genes and enzyme activity.
research A new label-free screen for steroid 5α-reductase inhibitors using LC-MS
Researchers developed a new method to find substances in herbs that can block a specific enzyme linked to hair loss.
research ENZYMES
Enzymes are classified into six types and are essential for many biological processes, with only a few targeted by drugs.
research Multifaceted roles of superoxide dismutases (SODs) in cellular homeostasis and cancer progression: Redox regulation and therapeutic implications
Superoxide dismutases help balance cell stress and may aid cancer treatment.
research Vitamin D metabolism and function in the skin
Skin cells produce and activate vitamin D, which regulates skin functions and supports hair growth.
research Alopecia Areata Universalis After Phenobarbital-Induced Anti-Convulsant Hypersensitivity Syndrome
A 3-year-old boy lost all his hair due to a rare reaction to phenobarbital, but it grew back after steroid treatment.
research The effect of active hexose correlated compound in modulating cytosine arabinoside-induced hair loss, and 6-mercaptopurine- and methotrexate-induced liver injury in rodents
AHCC reduces hair loss and liver injury caused by chemotherapy in rodents.
research Androgens and androgen receptor action in skin and hair follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Open-Label, Randomized, Multicenter, Phase III Study Comparing Oral Paclitaxel Plus Encequidar Versus Intravenous Paclitaxel in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer
Oral paclitaxel plus encequidar improved tumor response and caused less neuropathy but more serious infections than intravenous paclitaxel.
research Albendazole treatment of echinococcosis in humans: Effects on microsomal metabolism and drug tolerance
Albendazole treatment for echinococcosis can cause serious side effects and requires close monitoring.
research Modulation of glucocorticoid action and the treatment of type-2 diabetes
