research Molecular interactions of natural and synthetic steroids in female hamsters’ flank organs
Testosterone, progesterone, and levonorgestrel change enzyme levels related to fat production in hamster skin, which could affect skin oil and acne.
research Glucocorticoid Receptor Antagonism Improves Glucose Metabolism in a Mouse Model of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Blocking glucocorticoid receptors improves glucose metabolism in a PCOS mouse model.
research The role of dexamethasone in mediating the contradictory effects of Wnt antagonists SFRP2 and SFRP3 on human hair follicle growth
Dexamethasone affects hair growth by altering levels of proteins that either promote or inhibit hair follicle growth.
research Hair follicle stem cells and mitochondria
Hair follicle stem cells and mitochondria are key for hair growth, and targeting their activity could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Antiandrogens and Androgen Inhibitors
Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues. Herbal remedies also have antiandrogenic effects but lack safety validation.
research The role of hair follicles and Edar signalling in cutaneous wound healing
Activating the Eda/Edar pathway improves wound healing by enhancing hair follicle growth.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Modelling androgen synthesis and action during human sexual differentiation
Male sexual differentiation is regulated independently, while female differentiation occurs in an androgenic environment, affecting conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Neural Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein modulates Wnt signaling and is required for hair follicle cycling in mice
N-WASP is essential for normal hair growth in mice.
research Role of bulge cells in wound healing: possible implications for hidradenitis suppurativa
Hair follicle bulge cells are important for hair survival and help heal the skin after injury, which might be relevant for understanding hidradenitis suppurativa.
research Possible involvement of 5α-reduced neurosteroids in adrenergic and serotonergic stimulation of GFAP gene expression in rat C6 glioma cells
5α-reduced neurosteroids may help regulate glial cell differentiation.
research Catalytic Antibodies in Norm and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Catalytic antibodies are early indicators and active participants in the development of systemic lupus erythematosus.
research Valorization of Unconventional Hair Waste: Unlocking Opportunities in Materials and Chemical Engineering
Human hair waste can be valuable in engineering and materials due to its unique properties.
research The possibilities of correction of premature greying of hair and involutive hair changes
Premature graying and hair changes can be treated with certain peptides and possibly targeting the endocannabinoid system.
research The use of cyclosporine in dermatology: Part I
Cyclosporine is effective for skin conditions but has declined in use due to toxicity concerns.
research Basal cell carcinomas in mice arise from hair follicle stem cells and multiple epithelial progenitor populations
Basal cell carcinomas in mice can start from hair follicle stem cells and other skin cell types, depending on signaling levels.
research Effects of glucocorticoid on human dermal papilla cells in vitro
Dexamethasone may cause hair loss by stopping cell growth.
research Igf1r signalling acts on the anagen‐to‐catagen transition in the hair cycle
Igf1r helps regulate hair growth cycles.
research hMSCs possess the potential to differentiate into DP cellsin vivoandin vitro
Human mesenchymal stem cells can become dermal papilla cells, aiding hair growth.
research Mechanisms responsible for progesterone's protection against lordosis-inhibiting effects of restraint II. Role of progesterone metabolites
Allopregnanolone, a progesterone metabolite, helps reduce restraint effects on behavior.
research Dexamethasone, a Synthetic Glucocorticoid, Induces the Activity of Androgen Receptor in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Dexamethasone increases the activity of androgen receptors in human skin cells, which may link it to certain types of hair loss.
research Interventions for central serous chorioretinopathy: a network meta-analysis
No single treatment is clearly effective for central serous chorioretinopathy.
research Triclocarban, Triclosan, Bromochlorophene, Chlorophene, and Climbazole Effects on Nuclear Receptors: An in Silico and in Vitro Study
Five preservatives may disrupt hormone function and need more health and environmental risk assessment.
research Progesterone Inhibits the Growth of Human Neuroblastoma: In Vitro and In Vivo Evidence
Progesterone significantly reduces neuroblastoma tumor growth without harming healthy cells.
research Effects of aromatase inhibitors on human osteoblast and osteoblast-like cells: A possible androgenic bone protective effects induced by exemestane
Exemestane may protect bones by stimulating osteoblast growth through androgen-related pathways.
research WRKY transcription factors (TFs): Molecular switches to regulate drought, temperature, and salinity stresses in plants
WRKY transcription factors help plants manage stress and support growth.
research Delta Opioid Receptors Presynaptically Regulate Cutaneous Mechanosensory Neuron Input to the Spinal Cord Dorsal Horn
Delta opioid receptors help regulate touch sensation by reducing neurotransmitter release in the spinal cord.
research Antioxidant Activities of Natural Polysaccharides and Their Derivatives for Biomedical and Medicinal Applications
