Genetically-altered adult stem cells can help in wound healing and are becoming crucial in regenerative medicine and drug design.
research Evidence for Masculinization of Adipokine Gene Expression in Visceral and Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue of Obese Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
Obese women with PCOS show a male-like pattern in certain fat tissue gene expressions.
research Performance Evaluation of the Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT-4) on the Family Medicine In-Training Examination
GPT-4 performs well on medical exams but still needs human doctors for critical thinking.
research Association study between the -866G/A polymorphism in the promoter of uncoupling protein-2 gene and polycystic ovary syndrome
The -866G/A polymorphism in the UCP2 gene is not linked to polycystic ovary syndrome.
research The Aromatase Inhibitor Fadrozole and the 5-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride Affect Gonadal Differentiation and Gene Expression in the Frog Silurana tropicalis
Fadrozole and Finasteride change frog sex ratios and cause intersex animals with altered gene expressions.
research A preliminary study of differentially expressed genes in expanded skin and normal skin: implications for adult skin regeneration
The study found that expanded skin regenerates similarly to normal skin, with 77 genes playing a role in the process.
research From Surgery to Pharmacology to Gene Therapy
Hair restoration has evolved from surgery to drugs to potential gene therapy, with improved results and ongoing research driven by high demand.
research A 12-week treatment with the long-acting glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist liraglutide leads to significant weight loss in a subset of obese women with newly diagnosed polycystic ovary syndrome
Liraglutide caused significant weight loss in some obese women with PCOS, especially those with severe obesity and insulin resistance.
research Effects of melatonin administration on mental health parameters, metabolic and genetic profiles in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
Melatonin improved mental health and metabolism in women with PCOS.
research Physiopathological role of the enzymatic complex 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase in the generation of progesterone and testosterone neuroactive metabolites
The enzymes 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase help create brain-active substances from progesterone and testosterone, which could be used for treatment, but more research is needed to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
research 8 Hair follicles and associated glands as androgen targets
Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.
research Differential Expression of miR-93 and miR-21 in Granulosa Cells and Follicular Fluid of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Associating with Different Phenotypes
The study found that certain microRNAs are higher in the cells and lower in the fluid of women with a specific type of polycystic ovary syndrome, and one microRNA could potentially help diagnose the condition.
research Treatment of Female Androgenetic Alopecia With Cimetidine
A drug called cimetidine can help treat hair loss in women by blocking androgen receptors. However, it's not the first choice and needs more research.
research Hirsutism
Most women with hirsutism have it because of PCOS, and they need long-term treatment including medication and hair removal to improve their condition.
research Hormones and Absence Epilepsy☆
Stress and hormones like progesterone can affect absence seizures, but their effects change with different life stages.
research Pharmacological Control of Reproduction in the Dog and Cat
Different drugs are used to manage breeding, prevent or end pregnancy, and treat reproductive issues in dogs and cats.
research Indications for a brain‐hair follicle axis: inhibition of keratinocyte proliferation and up‐regulation of keratinocyte apoptosis in telogen hair follicles by stress and substance P
Stress can cause hair loss by negatively affecting hair follicles and this effect might be reversed with specific treatments.
research Acne
Hormonal treatments can help with acne, especially in women, by lowering androgen levels or blocking their effects.
research Estrogens and Human Scalp Hair Growth—Still More Questions than Answers
The effects of estrogen on human hair growth are unclear and need more research.
research Hormonal Therapy for Acne
Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in causing acne, and treatments like hormone control pills and hormone-blocking medications can help.
research Towards new aspects of melatonin research in dermato‐endocrinology
Melatonin protects skin and hair from damage and stress by acting as an antioxidant and influencing cell growth.
research The Effect of Parathyroid Hormones on Hair Follicle Physiology: Implications for Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Parathyroid hormones are important for hair growth, but their use in treating hair loss from chemotherapy is still uncertain.
research Comment on “Androgens and women: COVID‐19 outcomes in women with acne vulgaris, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and hirsutism”
Women with conditions like PCOS may have a higher risk of COVID-19, but treatments like isotretinoin could help those with acne.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Genome‐wide association study identifies variants associated with hair length in Brangus cattle
Scientists found genes linked to hair length in Brangus cattle that could help breed heat-tolerant cattle.
research Rooster feathering, androgenic alopecia, and hormone-dependent tumor growth: What is in common?
Sex hormones affect hair and feather growth and may help manage alopecia and hormone-dependent cancers.
research Hormone therapy in acne
