Using high doses and multiple drugs with steroids is risky and should be prevented.
research Spermidine/spermine-N1-acetyltransferase: a key metabolic regulator
SSAT is a key enzyme affecting cell growth and metabolism, with potential but risky use in disease treatment.
research The influence of cyclosporine A therapy on sex hormone levels in pre- and post-menopausal women with primary biliary cirrhosis
Cyclosporine A therapy changes sex hormone levels differently in pre-menopausal and post-menopausal women with primary biliary cirrhosis.
research Inborn errors of biotin metabolism
Two genetic disorders affect biotin metabolism, causing severe skin, hair, and metabolic issues.
research A Case Report on Iatrogenic Methotrexate Toxicity
Early recognition of methotrexate toxicity symptoms is crucial.
research High-throughput and direct measurement of androgen levels using turbulent flow chromatography liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (TFC-LC-TQMS) to discover chemicals that modulate dihydrotestosterone production in human prostate cancer cells
Researchers found four natural compounds that can change DHT levels in prostate cancer cells.
research THE INFLUENCE OF ALLOXAN DIABETES, METHYLTHIOURACIL, CORTISONE AND ADRENALINE ON THE UTILIZATION OF GLUCOSE 14C AND L-CYSTINE 35S AND MITOTIC ACTIVITY BY HAIR FOLLICLES IN WHITE MICE
Alloxan diabetes, methylthiouracil, cortisone, and adrenaline affect how white mice hair follicles use glucose and cystine and their cell division.
research The Myth of Beneficent Nature: The Risks of Herbal Preparations
Herbal products can be dangerous and cause serious health issues.
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 Pharmacology of antiandrogens
Antiandrogens affect androgen-dependent body functions and are used for various medical conditions, with some risks like fetus feminization, but new forms like 17α-propylmesterolone show promise for acne without systemic effects.
research Participation of GABAA, GABAB receptors and neurosteroids in toluene-induced hypothermia: Evidence of concentration-dependent differences in the mechanism of action
Toluene lowers body temperature through different mechanisms depending on the concentration.
research C19and C215β/5αMetabolite Ratios in Subjects Treated with the 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride: Comparison of Male Pseudohermaphrodites with Inherited 5α-Reductase Deficiency*
Finasteride may treat baldness but less effective for those with 5α-reductase deficiency.
research 17-Oximino-5-androsten-3β-yl esters: synthesis, antiproliferative activity, acute toxicity, and effect on serum androgen level
Some synthesized compounds were more effective than Finasteride in reducing prostate cancer cell growth and androgen levels.
research Metabolic pathway of Cis-UCA upon Ultraviolet B (UVB) exposure using ¹H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, Molecular Docking and cell viability of human keratinocytes (HaCaT) cell lines
Cis-UCA can form new compounds without enzymes, and sulphide donors reduce its UVB-induced toxicity in skin cells.
research Metabolism and skin diseases
Skin health and diseases are closely linked to metabolic processes.
research Evaluation of Signs of Skin Aging in Patients with Metabolic Syndrome after Substitution Therapy with Antioxidants. Summary of the Doctoral Thesis
Antioxidant therapy, especially with selenium, can improve skin aging in patients with Metabolic Syndrome.
research Induction and reversal of pulmonary lipid histiocytosis in rats following oral administration of anorectics cloforex and chlorphentermine
Rats developed lung issues from the drugs, but these cleared quickly after stopping them.
research 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors on Hypersexuality During the Manic Phase of Bipolar and Psychotic Patients; New Insight to a Well-Known Medicines
research Finasteride Has Regionally Different Effects on Brain Oxidative Stress and Acetylcholinesterase Activity in Acute Thioacetamide-Induced Hepatic Encephalopathy in Rats
Finasteride affects brain stress and enzyme activity differently in various regions, possibly helping with liver-related brain issues.
