research Whole Body and Regional Hemodynamic Effects of Minoxidil in the Conscious Dog
Minoxidil lowers blood pressure, increases heart rate, and improves blood flow in dogs.
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 Biosynthesis of Dihydrotestosterone by a Pathway that Does Not Require Testosterone as an Intermediate in the SZ95 Sebaceous Gland Cell Line
Dihydrotestosterone can be made from dehydroepiandrosterone in skin cells without needing testosterone.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes
Minoxidil affects cell growth in two ways: low doses increase growth, while high doses slow it down and can be toxic.
research Thyroid hormone action on skin
Thyroid hormones are important for skin health and might help treat skin diseases, but more research is needed to understand their effects fully.
research Relationship between Serum Concentrations, Hemodynamic Effects, and Cardiovascular Lesions in Dogs Treated with Minoxidil
Higher minoxidil doses in dogs cause faster heart rate, lower blood pressure, and heart issues.
research Review of the effects of 17α-estradiol in humans: a less feminizing estrogen with neuroprotective potential
17α-estradiol is a safe estrogen that might protect the brain and doesn't cause feminization, needing more research for treating brain diseases.
research Hormonal activity in commonly used Black hair care products: evaluating hormone disruption as a plausible contribution to health disparities
