30 / 1000+ results research Presence of a Deletion Mutation (c.716delA) in the Ligand Binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor in an Indian Patient with Vitamin D-Dependent Rickets Type II
A genetic mutation caused severe rickets and alopecia in an Indian patient, but high-dose calcium and phosphate treatment improved their condition.
research Increased Androgen Binding Capacity in Sebaceous Glands in Scalp of Male-pattern Baldness
Men with male-pattern baldness have more androgen receptors in their scalp's oil glands, which may contribute to hair loss.
research Androgen Regulation of the Human Hair Follicle: The Type I Hair Keratin hHa7 Is a Direct Target Gene in Trichocytes
The hHa7 gene is regulated by androgens in certain body hair, not scalp hair.
research Sex hormone–binding globulin and risk of hyperglycemia in patients with androgenetic alopecia
People with hair loss have higher risk of high blood sugar and diabetes, and lower levels of a specific hormone.
research Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin as more than a Biomarker of Metabolic Diseases and Reproductive Disorders: What Physicians Should Know?
Low SHBG levels are linked to negative health outcomes and should be used in assessing and managing health conditions.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Sex hormone-binding globulin and risk of hyperglycemia in patients with androgenetic alopecia.
People with early onset baldness (AGA) have higher blood sugar levels and lower sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) levels, suggesting SHBG could predict high blood sugar in these individuals.
research Prevalence and Predictors of Impaired Glucose Tolerance and Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Many women with polycystic ovary syndrome have normal blood sugar, but some may have higher blood sugar levels or diabetes, especially if they are older, overweight, and have certain hormone levels.
research Vitamin D-dependent rickets type II: extreme end organ resistance to 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 in a patient without alopecia
A boy with severe Vitamin D-resistant rickets did not respond to treatment and lacked a common symptom, suggesting a need for alternative treatments.
research An unusual presentation of vitamin D dependent rickets type 2 with low 25 (OH) D3 levels and alopecia: a case report of two siblings
Two siblings with a rare type of rickets and hair loss had low vitamin D levels, which is not typical for their condition.
research Mandibulofacial dysostosis with alopecia results from ETAR gain-of-function mutations via allosteric effects on ligand binding
Specific mutations in a receptor cause facial abnormalities and hair loss.
research Does a male polycystic ovarian syndrome equivalent exist?
Early onset baldness in men may indicate a condition similar to PCOS, linked to heart disease, diabetes, and prostate issues.
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 Premature androgenic alopecia and insulin resistance. Male equivalent of polycystic ovary syndrome?
Some men with early hair loss may have similar hormonal changes to women with Polycystic ovary syndrome, and could be at risk for developing type 2 diabetes.
research Cutaneous Retinoic Acid Levels Determine Hair Follicle Development and Downgrowth
The right amount of retinoic acid is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research 1440 DNA dioxygenases Tet2/3 regulate gene promoter accessibility and chromatin topology in lineage-specific loci to control keratinocyte differentiation and hair growth
Tet2 and Tet3 enzymes are important for controlling hair growth and shape by affecting gene activity and DNA structure in hair follicles.
research 723 DNA dioxygenases Tet2/3 regulate gene promoter accessibility and three-dimensional chromatin topology in lineage-specific loci to control hair growth
Tet2 and Tet3 enzymes are essential for controlling hair growth by affecting DNA demethylation and gene expression in mice.
research Baicalin inhibits recruitment of GATA1 to the HSD3B2 promoter and reverses hyperandrogenism of PCOS
Baicalin may help reduce excessive male hormone levels in PCOS.
research Conditioned media obtained from human outer root sheath follicular keratinocyte culture activates signalling pathways that contribute to maintenance of hair-inducing capacity and increases trichogenicity of cultured dermal cells
The substance from human hair root cells can help maintain hair growth and make skin cells more capable of growing hair.
research Blinding in Placebo-Controlled Trials
The conclusion suggests that the zinc lozenge study is valid despite imperfect blinding, as many participants could not correctly identify their lozenge type.
research Astilbin Activates the Reactive Oxidative Species/PPARγ Pathway to Suppress Effector CD4+ T Cell Activities via Direct Binding With Cytochrome P450 1B1
Astilbin can potentially calm overactive immune responses, like in Type 1 Diabetes, by suppressing certain cell activities and reducing inflammation.
research Skin Wound Healing
Using a specific binding agent and low doses of FK506 can stimulate stem cells, speeding up skin healing by 25% and improving skin quality in rats and mice.
research IGFBP‐rP1 is a potential therapeutic target in androgenic alopecia
IGFBP-rP1 could be a new treatment for a common type of hair loss.
research Female androgenic alopecia. The 3 alpha,17 beta-androstanediol glucuronide/sex hormone binding globulin ratio as a possible marker for female pattern baldness
Women with more 3α,17β-androstanediol glucuronide compared to sex hormone binding globulin are more likely to have female pattern baldness.
research GRHL3 binding and enhancers rearrange as epidermal keratinocytes transition between functional states
GRHL3 is important for controlling gene activity in skin cells during different stages of their development.
research Acyl-CoA binding protein and epidermal barrier function
ACBP is essential for healthy skin and fur by maintaining the skin's barrier function.
research Antihormonal properties of some new A-homo-B, 19-dinor steroids of the androstane series
New A-homo-B, 19-dinor steroids showed strong antiandrogenic activity without affecting the enzyme 5α-reductase or androgen receptor binding.
