research Author response: Effects of lifelong testosterone exposure on health and disease using Mendelian randomization
Long-term high testosterone levels can improve bone density and reduce body fat but may increase the risk of prostate cancer and high blood pressure.
research An Unusual Case of Elevated Testosterone: When Testosterone by Dialysis Saves the Day
Equilibrium dialysis can accurately measure testosterone levels when lab results are inconsistent.
research Matriptase-2, A Novel Suppressor of Hepcidin.
Matriptase-2 helps control iron levels by suppressing hepcidin, and its deficiency can cause iron-deficiency anemia.
research Wool and Hair Waste as Nutrient Source for High-value Crops
Adding wool or hair waste to soil boosts crop yields and nutrient levels.
research Skin expression of mammalian target of rapamycin and forkhead box transcription factor O1, and serum insulin‐like growth factor‐1 in patients with acne vulgaris and their relationship with diet
Eating a high-glycemic diet may worsen acne by increasing certain protein levels and expressions in the skin.
research Exploring Reference Values for Hair Cortisol
Hair sample weight is a better measure for cortisol levels in hair than hair protein concentration.
research Hormonal and clinic evaluation of patients with moderate body hair growth
Women with moderate body hair have higher levels of certain hormones and may benefit from treatment that increases sex hormone-binding protein.
research Cell‐free DNA is elevated in the serum of patients with hidradenitis suppurativa
Patients with hidradenitis suppurativa have higher levels of cell-free DNA in their blood.
research Low Anabolic Profile in Assessing a Patients Overall Hair Loss
Some supplements and hormones can increase hair loss by raising DHT levels.
research Expression patterns of TRα and CRABPII genes in Chinese cashmere goat skin during prenatal development
TRα and CRABPII genes change their activity levels during goat fetal skin development.
research An investigation of vitamin D status in alopecia areata
People with alopecia areata often have lower vitamin D levels and more inflammation, suggesting vitamin D might be involved in the condition.
research Identification and Characterisation of a Novel Pathogenic Mutation in the Human Lipodystrophy Gene AGPAT2
A new mutation in the AGPAT2 gene causes severe fat tissue loss and related health issues by reducing the protein's levels.
research Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Action of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors May Be Mediated by Dehydroepiandrosterone. Letter.
Certain drugs like Dutasteride and Finasteride might help fight SARS-CoV-2 by increasing levels of a steroid called DHEA, which can protect the heart and increase nitric oxide to counteract the virus.
research Caspase-1 Level Is Higher in the Scalp in Androgenetic Alopecia
Higher caspase-1 levels found in balding scalps; reducing it may help treat hair loss.
research Root hair growth from the pH point of view
pH changes are crucial for root hair growth because they affect enzymes and proteins that control the cell wall and growth.
research Oxidative stress and antioxidant markers in patients with alopecia areata: A comparative cross-sectional study
Patients with alopecia areata have higher oxidative stress and lower antioxidant levels.
research Effect of tofacitinib on the expression of noggin/BMP-4 and hair growth stimulation in mice
Tofacitinib helps mice grow more hair by increasing noggin and BMP4 levels, possibly better than minoxidil.
research Deletion of the Sox21 gene drastically affects hair lipids
Deleting the Sox21 gene changes hair lipid composition and increases cholesterol sulfate levels.
research Serum Level of Survivin in Patients with Alopecia Areata and its Association with Disease Severity and Progression
Lower survivin levels in blood are linked to more severe and progressing alopecia areata.
research The role of keratin proteins and their genes in the growth, structure and properties of hair
Keratin proteins and their genes are crucial for hair growth and structure.
research Saliva secretion in engrafted mouse bioengineered salivary glands using taste stimulation
Bioengineered salivary glands in mice can produce saliva when tasting sour or bitter, but have different protein levels and nerve signals compared to natural glands.
research Protein degradation: expanding the toolbox to restrain cancer drug resistance
Using protein degradation to fight cancer drug resistance shows promise but needs more precise targeting and fewer side effects.
research Antioxidant enzyme expression of mRNA and protein in the epididymis of finasteride-treated male rat offspring during postnatal development
Finasteride affects offspring's antioxidant enzymes in epididymis, possibly disrupting sperm maturation.
research Effects of Methionine Supplementation in Low-Protein Diets on Growth Performance, Fur Quality, Blood Indices, and Intestinal Microbiota of Blue Foxes (Vulpes lagopus) During the Fur-Growing Period
Methionine supplementation in low-protein diets improves growth, fur quality, and gut health in blue foxes.
research Effects of latanoprost on vascular endothelial growth factor protein synthesis in human dermal papilla cells
Latanoprost increases VEGF protein in human cells, which may help hair growth.
research Protein kinase Cepsilon is linked to 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-induced tumor necrosis factor-alpha ectodomain shedding and the development of metastatic squamous cell carcinoma in protein kinase Cepsilon transgenic mice.
Overexpression of PKCepsilon leads to increased TNFalpha, promoting metastatic squamous cell carcinoma in mice.
research Reduced levels of 5-α reductase 2 in adult prostate tissue and implications for BPH therapy
Some men's prostate tissues have low enzyme levels due to genetic changes, possibly affecting treatment for prostate enlargement.
research Foxn1 promotes keratinocyte differentiation by regulating the activity of protein kinase C
Foxn1 helps skin cells mature by controlling a specific protein's activity.
research Inhibition of the development of metastatic squamous cell carcinoma in protein kinase C epsilon transgenic mice by alpha-difluoromethylornithine accompanied by marked hair follicle degeneration and hair loss.
Alpha-difluoromethylornithine prevents cancer in mice but causes hair loss.
