Men and women have different levels and production of brain steroids, which may affect their risk for certain brain disorders.
research Early post-natal neuroactive steroid manipulation modulates ondansetron effects on initial periods of alcohol consumption in rats
Early changes in brain chemicals affect how a drug reduces alcohol intake in rats.
research The human gut chemical landscape predicts microbe-mediated biotransformation of foods and drugs
The study developed a tool to predict how gut microbes process foods and drugs, showing that similar compounds often share metabolic pathways and effects.
research Inhibition of 5α‐Reduced Steroid Biosynthesis Impedes Acquisition of Ethanol Drinking in Male C57BL/6J Mice

research A comparison of the cytotoxic effects of fatty acids on in vitro breast and prostate cell lines
DHA derivatives, especially didocosahexaenoin, effectively kill prostate cancer cells and may offer a safer cancer treatment option.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Advances and Challenges in Plant Sterol Research: Fundamentals, Analysis, Applications and Production
Plant sterols have health benefits like lowering cholesterol, but more research is needed to understand their effects and improve their extraction and sustainability.
research Permeant lipophilicity and vehicle composition influence accumulation of dyes in hair follicles of human skin
Lipophilic dyes accumulate more in hair follicles when delivered with surfactant-propylene glycol solutions.
research A Gender Hypothesis of sex disparities in adverse drug events
Gendered social factors, not just biology, contribute to sex differences in adverse drug events.
research 138 Characterization of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes of a reconstructed human epidermal model from adult hair follicles
