research Analytical Techniques for the Quantification of Finasteride - A Review
Different methods accurately measure Finasteride in medicines and body fluids.
research Therapeutic success of epidermal grafting in generalized vitiligo is limited by the Koebner phenomenon
Skin grafting can help repigment vitiligo, but it's less effective for widespread cases due to the Koebner phenomenon.
research Response of Hemiballismus to Haloperidol-Reply
Haloperidol effectively treated hemiballismus, but spontaneous improvement wasn't ruled out; rapid weight loss can cause hair loss with good regrowth chances.
research Chemically Induced Hair Loss/Alopecia
Some chemicals and drugs can cause hair loss, which usually grows back after stopping the treatment.
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 Structural characterization and bioactive screening of two homogeneity proteins from Tianshan red deer abomasum
Proteins from Tianshan red deer abomasum have strong anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, and antioxidant effects.
research A Novel Point Mutation in the Ligand-Binding Domain (LBD) of the Human Glucocorticoid Receptor (hGR) Causing Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance: The Importance of the C Terminus of hGR LBD in Conferring Transactivational Activity
A new mutation in the human glucocorticoid receptor reduces its function and causes resistance to glucocorticoids.
research Skin steroidogenesis in health and disease
The skin's ability to produce hormones is linked to various skin conditions, and better understanding this process could lead to new treatments.
research Characterization of a Partial cDNA for Lysyl Hydroxylase from Human Skin Fibroblasts; Lysyl Hydroxylase mRNAs Are Regulated Differently by Minoxidil Derivatives and Hydralazine
