Activating TSPO helps protect the retina from damage caused by high eye pressure in glaucoma.
research Localized cutaneous necrosis associated with the antiphospholipid syndrome
A woman with lupus experienced skin death due to a blood clotting disorder after stopping a blood thinner, which healed with treatment.
research Alopecia in association with severe seborrhoeic dermatitis following combination antiretroviral therapy for acute retroviral syndrome

research An excellent response to tofacitinib in a Brazilian adolescent patient with alopecia areata: A case report and a review of the literature
A Brazilian teenager with severe hair loss had total hair regrowth with no side effects after using tofacitinib.
research Alopecia - the search for novel agents continues
Many potential alopecia treatments need more testing to confirm they promote acceptable hair growth with minimal side effects.
research Cutaneous thrombosis and ANCA-positive vasculitis associated with propylthiouracil therapy
Propylthiouracil, a thyroid medication, can cause skin blood clots and immune-related blood vessel inflammation.
research 1. 2年間の低負荷レジスタンストレーニングが高齢者の筋機能に及ぼす効果(第134回日本体力医学会関東地方会)
Blocking 5α-reductase can reduce sleep deprivation-related behavioral issues in rats.
research Managing hair loss
Different causes of hair loss require specific treatments, and most men and women will experience some form of hair thinning as they age.
research Tacrolimus in Dermatology
Tacrolimus is an effective treatment for several skin conditions with fewer side effects than cyclosporine.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa secondary to treatment with a gamma secretase inhibitor
A man developed skin lesions as a side effect of a gamma secretase inhibitor used for treating a tumor.
research Disruption of androgen metabolism, regulation and effects : involvement of steroidogenic enzymes
Anabolic steroids and inflammation can disrupt androgen metabolism, potentially causing health issues.
research Therapeutic Potential of Brassinosteroids in Biomedical and Clinical Research
Brassinosteroids may be useful in treating cancer, infections, and other diseases.
research Acne related to dietary supplements
Some dietary supplements, like vitamins B6/B12, iodine, whey protein, and muscle-building products, can cause or worsen acne.
research 5α-reductase isoenzymes mediate stress-exacerbated Tourette-like responses in animal models
Targeting 5α-reductase type 1 may help manage Tourette-like symptoms.
research Neurosteroids Are Endogenous Neuroprotectants in an Ex Vivo Glaucoma Model
A natural steroid in the body may protect against eye damage in glaucoma.
research Androgen receptor activation integrates complex transcriptional effects in osteoblasts, involving the growth factors TGF-β and IGF-I, and transcription factor C/EBPδ
DHT affects bone growth by altering gene activity in osteoblasts, potentially complicating steroid use.
research Phenytoin‐mediated androgen metabolism in gingival fibroblasts
Levamisole and finasteride can reduce DHT production, potentially preventing phenytoin-induced gum overgrowth.
research Increased expression of the gene for the Y1 receptor of neuropeptide Y in the amygdala and paraventricular nucleus of Y1R/LacZ transgenic mice in response to restraint stress
Acute stress increases Y1 receptor gene expression in certain brain areas, but repeated stress does not.
research MON-407 The Double-Edged Sword of Methimazole: Managing Graves' Disease with a Twist
Methimazole can cause severe low platelet count in Graves' disease patients, so monitoring and alternative treatments are important.
research 7. Surgery and Laser
Various skin conditions like cutaneous lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, and basal cell carcinoma can be effectively treated with antihypertensive agents, NB-UVB phototherapy, and imiquimod cream respectively. Vaccines are effective against genital herpes and HPV-16 infection. Early intervention is crucial for conditions like diabetic foot ulcers and neonatal herpes. Certain dyes can cause hand dermatitis, and there's a link between smoking/drinking and psoriasis in men. No direct link was found between low iron levels and chronic hair loss in women.
research Social isolation alters GABAA receptors plasticity and function: effect of voluntary consumption of ethanol
Social isolation changes brain receptors and makes ethanol more impactful.
research 1. Medical Practice; Therapy; Adverse Reactions
Blood pressure drugs can cause skin lupus, but it improves after stopping the drug. The glycoprotein D vaccine works against genital herpes in some women, and the HPV-16 vaccine reduces HPV-16 infection and related diseases. More frequent light therapy clears psoriasis faster. A cream called imiquimod effectively treats a type of skin cancer. Iron supplements don't necessarily help with chronic hair loss in women.
research 2. Internal Medicine
Certain drugs can cause skin lupus, but stopping the drug usually helps. Vaccines work against smallpox, genital herpes, and a type of human papillomavirus. More frequent light therapy clears psoriasis faster. Certain treatments work for psoriasis and dermatitis. A specific cream effectively treats a type of skin cancer. Low iron levels aren't directly linked to chronic hair loss.
research 8. Pathology
Various skin conditions can be treated effectively with different methods, such as discontinuing certain drugs, using specific vaccines, applying creams, and changing lifestyle habits like smoking and drinking.
