research An investigation of crosstalk between Wnt/β-catenin and transforming growth factor-β signaling in androgenetic alopecia
Wnt/β-catenin and TGF-β pathways affect hair loss, and activating Wnt/β-catenin could be a potential treatment.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Adolescents
The document concludes that diagnosing PCOS in teenagers is difficult and should focus on specific hormone levels and menstrual irregularities, while also considering treatment for symptoms and related health issues.
research Adverse events of non-ablative fractional laser photothermolysis: a retrospective study of 856 treatments in 362 patients
Non-ablative fractional laser treatments have a low risk of side effects in Asian patients.
research Considerations in genetic counseling of transgender patients: Cultural competencies and altered disease risk profiles
Genetic counselors should be culturally skilled and aware of transgender patients' unique health risks and needs.
research Recent discoveries and developments of androgen receptor based therapy for prostate cancer
New treatments for prostate cancer are less toxic and show promise, but more research is needed to enhance their effectiveness and reduce side effects.
research Insights learned from L457(3.43)R, an activating mutant of the human lutropin receptor
The L457(3.43)R mutation in the human lutropin receptor causes increased activity and hormone insensitivity, leading to precocious puberty.
research Bioextracting Polyphenols from the Brown Seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum from Québec's North Shore Coastline
Freezing brown seaweed right after harvesting and using microwave-assisted extraction with 75% 1,3-propanediol as a solvent is the best way to get polyphenols for cosmetics.
research Transgender Competent Provider
Healthcare providers need better education and policies to serve transgender individuals effectively.
research Do Different Diagnostic Criteria Impact Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Diagnosis for Adolescents?
Different diagnostic criteria greatly affect PCOS diagnosis rates in teenagers.
research Enhancing hair follicle regeneration by nonablative fractional laser: Assessment of irradiation parameters and tissue response
Using a fractional laser can stimulate hair growth, but the intensity and duration of inflammation are crucial. Too much can cause ulcers and scarring. Lower beam energy and fewer treatments are recommended to avoid damage.
research Case 21-2012
The patient was diagnosed with anorexia nervosa and severe malnutrition, requiring urgent refeeding and monitoring.
research The Use of a 1,540 nm Fractional Erbium‐Glass Laser in Treatment of Alopecia Areata
The erbium-glass laser effectively promotes hair regrowth in alopecia areata.
research Fractional non-ablative laser-assisted drug delivery leads to improvement in male and female pattern hair loss
Laser-assisted drug delivery improves hair loss.
research Gynecologic and andrologic dermatology and the metabolic syndrome
Skin diseases linked to insulin resistance should be managed to prevent diabetes and reduce heart disease risk.
research Effect of a low-starch/low-dairy diet on fat oxidation in overweight and obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome
A low-starch/low-dairy diet may help overweight women with PCOS lose weight and improve metabolism, but more research is needed.
research Capitalising on ageing anxieties: Promissory discourse and the creation of an ‘anti-ageing treatment’ market
The anti-ageing treatment market is growing by exploiting fears of ageing with unproven promises, which could harm public trust and genuine science.
research Endocrinology and auxology of sibships with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
Siblings with signs of virilization should be tested for non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia, which does not affect adult height but may impact fertility and well-being if untreated.
research Molecular basis of androgen action on human sexual desire
Testosterone significantly affects sexual desire in both men and women, but its impact on women is more complex and influenced by psychological factors.
research Sulforaphane promotes murine hair growth by accelerating the degradation of dihydrotestosterone
Sulforaphane may help with hair growth by breaking down a hormone that causes hair loss.
research Testosterone replacement in 49,XXXXY syndrome: andrological, metabolic and neurological aspects
Testosterone therapy improved physical and social health in a male with 49,XXXXY syndrome.
research Alcohol Exposure During Late Adolescence Increases Drinking in Adult Wistar Rats, an Effect that is not Reduced by Finasteride
Alcohol in teen years leads to more adult drinking, finasteride doesn't help.
research Metabolic and transcriptomic reprogramming during contact inhibition-induced quiescence is mediated by YAP-dependent and YAP-independent mechanisms
Quiescent cells have increased mitochondrial activity and ECM gene expression, but reduced glycolysis.
research Formulation and Characterization of Transethosomes for Enhanced Transdermal Delivery of Propranolol Hydrochloride
The new gel improves skin delivery of a drug, potentially reducing dose frequency and side effects.
research Recent Advances in Drug Design and Drug Discovery for Androgen- Dependent Diseases
New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.
research The effects of oestrogens on linear bone growth
Estrogens are key for bone growth spurts in both boys and girls and affect growth into adulthood.
research Androgens and hair: a biological paradox
Androgens can cause hair growth in some areas but hair loss on the scalp.
research The Biology of Hair Growth
Hair growth is influenced by hormones and goes through different phases; androgens can both promote and inhibit hair growth depending on the body area.
research Alopecia induced in young mice by exposure to excess dietary zinc
Too much zinc in the diet can cause hair loss and color change in young mice by reducing copper in the body.
research The rise of transcutaneous drug delivery for the management of alopecia: a review of existing literature and an eye towards the future
