research Genetic Variation in the Human Androgen Receptor Gene Is the Major Determinant of Common Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia
Genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene mainly causes early-onset hair loss, with maternal inheritance playing a key role.
research Effects of Flutamide and Finasteride on Rat Testicular Descent
Androgens, like testosterone, are crucial for early testicular descent in rats.
research TGF-β family signaling in stem cells
TGF-β signaling is crucial for stem cell maintenance, differentiation, and has implications for cancer treatment.
research Molecular basis of androgenetic alopecia: From androgen to paracrine mediators through dermal papilla
Male pattern baldness involves hormones and cell signals affecting hair growth.
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 Androgen receptor–mediated inhibition of cutaneous wound healing
Lowering testosterone speeds up wound healing in male mice.
research Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Improves Cardiometabolic Function in Young Obese Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Treating sleep apnea in young obese women with PCOS can improve heart health and insulin sensitivity.
research EMQN best practice guidelines for molecular genetic testing and reporting of 21-hydroxylase deficiency
The guidelines ensure accurate genetic testing and reporting for 21-hydroxylase deficiency.
research Testosterone Supplementation for Aging-Associated Sarcopenia
Testosterone supplements can increase muscle mass and strength in older men with low levels, but long-term effects and risks need more research.
research Sulfation of minoxidil by multiple human cytosolic sulfotransferases
Minoxidil breakdown varies by enzymes, affecting hair loss treatment effectiveness.
research Finasteride in the treatment of hirsutism: new therapeutic perspectives
Finasteride effectively treats hirsutism in women, but more research needed for long-term results.
research Generation and characterization of rat liver stem cell lines and their engraftment in a rat model of liver failure
Researchers created rat liver stem cells that could help repair liver failure in rats and may be useful for studying human liver diseases.
research A discourse on human hair fibers and reflections on the conservation of drug molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
research Metabolomic biomarkers in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a pilot study
Certain metabolites are lower in women with PCOS and could be potential markers for the condition.
research Azathioprine
Azathioprine's effectiveness and safety require careful monitoring and more research, especially regarding its use with corticosteroids and the role of TPMT status in patients.
research Sulfation of minoxidil by human platelet sulfotransferase
Human platelets change minoxidil to minoxidil sulfate, helping blood vessels widen.
research The Contribution of Endogenous and Exogenous Factors to Male Alopecia
Genetic and environmental factors, like smoking and exercise, affect male hair loss.
research Identification of the causative dermatophyte of tinea capitis in children attending Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital in Uganda by PCR-ELISA and comparison with conventional mycological diagnostic methods
PCR-ELISA is better for identifying the fungus causing scalp infections in Ugandan children than traditional methods.
research Cardiovascular risk factors and events in women with androgen excess
Women with androgen excess, especially those with PCOS, have a much higher risk of heart disease and stroke.
research High-performance liquid chromatographic determination of finasteride in human plasma using direct injection with column switching
New method detects finasteride in plasma quickly and accurately without clean-up.
research Lipid nanoparticles for topical and transdermal application for alopecia treatment: development, physicochemical characterization, and in vitro release and penetration studies
New lipid nanoparticles show promise for delivering hair loss treatments but need improvement for better skin penetration.
research PBX homeobox 1 enhances hair follicle mesenchymal stem cell proliferation and reprogramming through activation of the AKT/glycogen synthase kinase signaling pathway and suppression of apoptosis
PBX1 helps hair stem cells grow and change by turning on certain cell signals and preventing cell death, which may be useful for hair regrowth treatments.
research The diagnosis of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, based on serum basal or post-ACTH stimulation 17-hydroxyprogesterone, can lead to false-positive diagnosis
Using 17-hydroxyprogesterone levels to diagnose nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia can result in many incorrect diagnoses.
research Effect of bioclimatic area and season on phenolics and antioxidant activities of rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) leaves
Rosemary's antioxidant content changes with the climate and season.
research Alopecia Areata is Associated with Increased Expression of Heart Disease Biomarker Cardiac Troponin I
People with alopecia areata have higher levels of a heart disease marker than those without hair loss.
research Defining hyperandrogenaemia according to the free androgen index in Chinese women: a cross-sectional study
FAI values above 6.4 may suggest high androgen levels and increased metabolic risks in Chinese women of reproductive age.
research Simultaneous effects of tocopheryl polyethylene glycol succinate (TPGS) on local hair growth promotion and systemic absorption of topically applied minoxidil in a mouse model
Adding a small amount of TPGS to minoxidil can help hair growth, but too much TPGS reduces this effect and increases minoxidil in the blood.
research Relations between sex hormone level and characters of hair and skin in healthy young men
Higher androgen levels do not cause baldness in men.
research Pre-aggregation of scalp progenitor dermal and epidermal stem cells activates the WNT pathway and promotes hair follicle formation in in vitro and in vivo systems
Grouping certain skin cells together activates a growth pathway that helps create new hair follicles.
