research Differential Auxin-Transporting Activities of PIN-FORMED Proteins in Arabidopsis Root Hair Cells
Different PIN proteins affect plant root hair growth by changing how auxin is transported.
research Prevalence of hyperandrogenemia in the polycystic ovary syndrome diagnosed by the National Institutes of Health 1990 criteria
Most women with PCOS have high levels of male hormones, and free testosterone is the best marker for this.
research Management of acne
Acne treatment varies, with topical and systemic therapies effective, and more research needed on treatment order and long-term effects.
research The use of a transscrotal testosterone delivery system in the treatment of patients with weight loss related to human immunodeficiency virus infection
The transscrotal testosterone patch normalizes hormone levels in men with AIDS and weight loss but does not improve weight, body mass, or quality of life.
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 Clinical, metabolic, and endocrine parameters in response to metformin and lifestyle intervention in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: A randomized, double-blind, and placebo control trial
Metformin combined with lifestyle changes improves insulin resistance and reduces testosterone levels in women with PCOS more than lifestyle changes alone.
research The genetics of hair shaft disorders
The article explains the genetic causes and symptoms of various hair disorders and highlights the need for more research to find treatments.
research ACNE
Acne significantly affects mental health and quality of life, with research suggesting hormonal and genetic factors in its development and emphasizing early treatment to prevent scarring.
research The prevalence of idiopathic hirsutism and polycystic ovary syndrome in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study
About 13% of women had idiopathic hirsutism and 8.5% had polycystic ovary syndrome in a group of Iranian women.
research Activin B Promotes BMSC-Mediated Cutaneous Wound Healing by Regulating Cell Migration via the JNK—ERK Signaling Pathway
Activin B improves wound healing and hair growth by helping stem cells move using certain cell signals.
research Ephrins Negatively Regulate Cell Proliferation in the Epidermis and Hair Follicle
Ephrins slow down skin and hair follicle cell growth.
research Stem cell factor/c-Kit signalling in normal and androgenetic alopecia hair follicles
SCF and c-Kit decrease in AGA hair follicles, possibly affecting hair pigmentation and growth.
research Xenobiotica-metabolizing enzymes in the skin of rat, mouse, pig, guinea pig, man, and in human skin models
Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.
research Shorter CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene may enhance hyperandrogenicity in polycystic ovary syndrome
Shorter CAG repeats in a specific gene may increase male hormone activity and symptoms like acne and excess hair in women with PCOS.
research Differential Diagnosis of Hyperandrogenism in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The conclusion is that accurately identifying the cause of high androgen levels in women with PCOS is crucial and requires specific tests.
research Off-Label Use of Topical Minoxidil in Alopecia: A Review
Minoxidil helps treat eyebrow thinning, monilethrix, early hair loss, and shortens chemo-related hair loss.
research Glucocorticoid Receptor Mutants Demonstrate Increased Motility Inside the Nucleus of Living Cells: Time of Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP) Is an Integrated Measure of Receptor Function
Certain defective glucocorticoid receptor mutants move faster inside cell nuclei and work less effectively.
research A rational approach to the diagnosis of polycystic ovarian syndrome during adolescence
Diagnosing PCOS in teenagers should focus on signs of excess male hormones and not rely solely on ovarian ultrasound or irregular periods, and should be reassessed in adulthood.
research Platelet-Rich Fibrin Matrix (PRFM) for Androgenetic Alopecia
PRFM may help treat hair loss, especially in mild cases.
research Diet and acne
Diet changes can help reduce acne by limiting certain hormones.
research Roles of steroid sulfatase in brain and other tissues
Steroid sulfatase is important for activating hormones that affect memory, brain function, and certain diseases, and could be a target for treating hormone-related disorders.
research A novel and safe small molecule enhances hair follicle regeneration by facilitating metabolic reprogramming
Small molecule IM boosts hair growth by changing stem cell metabolism.
research A Study of the Expression of Small Conductance Calcium-Activated Potassium Channels (SK1-3) in Sensory Endings of Muscle Spindles and Lanceolate Endings of Hair Follicles in the Rat
