Research
90-120 / 1000+ resultsresearch Constitutive Internalization of the Leucine-rich G Protein-coupled Receptor-5 (LGR5) to the Trans-Golgi Network
LGR5 mainly stays inside cells, moving to the trans-Golgi network, and this process is important for its role in cell signaling.
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 5% Minoxidil topical foam on women: Menopause and other covariates
5% minoxidil foam effectively regrows hair in women, with postmenopausal women seeing the most improvement.
research Androgen deprivation therapy may constitute a more effective COVID-19 prophylactic than therapeutic strategy
Androgen deprivation therapy might be better for preventing COVID-19 than treating it.
research A new tool for conditional gene manipulation in a subset of keratin‐expressing epithelia
The Megsin-Cre transgene is a new tool for genetic manipulation in the skin and upper digestive tract.
research Inflammatory Vegetative Lesions of the Perineum: A Rare and Severe Clinical Presentation of Netherton Syndrome
Netherton Syndrome can cause severe skin lesions in rare cases.
research Severe Hypernatremia as Presentation of Netherton Syndrome
Netherton syndrome can cause severe dehydration, infections, and growth issues in infants.
research Is COVID-19 Gender-sensitive?
Men have more severe COVID-19 outcomes than women.
research Human genetic basis of coronavirus disease 2019
Genetic differences affect COVID-19 severity and treatment development.
research Androgens in SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Infections
Men, particularly those with hair loss, are more likely to get the virus, and those with prostate cancer may have milder symptoms. Testosterone's role in the disease is unclear, and the virus doesn't seem to harm male fertility. Women with PCOS might be at higher risk. More research is needed.
research Late unexpected consequences of COVID‐19 infection in survivors of acute hypoxic respiratory failure
After severe COVID-19, 71% of patients experienced excessive hair shedding and thinning within 3 months due to factors like low oxygen levels, medication, stress, and autoimmune disease.
research Advances in Understanding Hair Growth
Understanding glycans and enzymes that alter them is key to controlling hair growth.
research Wound Healing: A Cellular Perspective
The document concludes that better targeted treatments are needed for wound healing, and single-cell technologies may improve cell-based therapies.
research A genome-wide association scan in admixed Latin Americans identifies loci influencing facial and scalp hair features
Genetic factors influence hair traits like shape, color, and greying in Latin Americans.
research A preliminary observation: Male pattern hair loss among hospitalized COVID‐19 patients in Spain – A potential clue to the role of androgens in COVID‐19 severity
Male pattern hair loss could hint at androgens affecting COVID-19 severity.
research Androgen sensitivity gateway to COVID ‐19 disease severity
Men's sensitivity to male hormones might affect how severe COVID-19 gets for them.
research Male sex hormones, aging, and inflammation
Adequate testosterone is crucial for men's health and quality of life, but its decline with age needs more research.
research An Assessment on Impact of COVID-19 Infection in a Gender Specific Manner
Men have higher COVID-19 mortality rates than women due to biological and lifestyle factors.
research Matriptase activation and shedding with HAI-1 is induced by steroid sex hormones in human prostate cancer cells, but not in breast cancer cells
Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.
research Advances in nucleoside monophosphate prodrugs as anti-HCV agents
New treatments for Hepatitis C show promise but need more research to confirm their safety and effectiveness for clinical use.
research What does androgenetic alopecia have to do with COVID‐19? An insight into a potential new therapy
Androgenetic alopecia linked to COVID-19 severity; drugs reducing androgen receptor activation may help.

Spironolactone might help protect against severe lung problems in COVID-19 patients.
research Repurposing existing drugs for COVID-19: an endocrinology perspective
Existing drug dexamethasone may lower death risk in severe COVID-19 cases; more research needed for other drugs.
research Candidate genes of SARS-CoV-2 gender susceptibility
Men are more affected by COVID-19 due to differences in immune responses and protein expression.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome and risks for COVID-19 infection: A comprehensive review
Women with PCOS have a higher risk of severe COVID-19 due to related health issues.
