Melatonin solution helps treat hair loss in men and women.
research SLE and Serum Complement: Causative, Concomitant or Coincidental?
Low serum complement levels in SLE patients don't always match with disease flares; monitoring C3 and C4 is useful, but cell-bound complement products might better indicate disease activity.
research Persistent Escalation of Alcohol Consumption by Mice Exposed to Brief Episodes of Social Defeat Stress: Suppression by CRF-R1 Antagonism
Blocking CRF-R1 can reduce alcohol intake in stressed mice.
research Bimatoprost for the Treatment of Eyelash, Eyebrow, and Scalp Alopecia
Bimatoprost is promising for treating some types of hair loss but needs more testing for androgenetic alopecia.
research Body Composition Changes and Inhibition of Fat Development In Vivo Implicate Androgen in Regulation of Stem Cell Lineage Allocation
Androgen is important in controlling stem cell differentiation, reducing fat development, and increasing lean mass.
research Procyanidin B-3, Isolated from Barley and Identified as a Hair-Growth Stimulant, Has the Potential to Counteract Inhibitory Regulation by TGF-β1
Barley extract, specifically procyanidin B-3, can promote hair growth and counteract growth inhibition.
research Reproductive Dysfunction in Women with Epilepsy
Epilepsy and certain epilepsy drugs can lead to reproductive problems in women, but changing medication might improve these issues.
research Divergent Neuroactive Steroid Responses to Stress and Ethanol in Rat and Mouse Strains: Relevance for Human Studies
Stress and alcohol affect brain chemicals differently in rats, mice, and humans, influenced by genetic differences.
research Comparison of the Effects of the K+-Channel Openers Cromakalim and Minoxidil Sulphate on Vascular Smooth Muscle
Cromakalim relaxes various blood vessels, while minoxidil sulphate is more selective; they likely act on different potassium channels.
research The Efficacy of 24-Month Metformin for Improving Menses, Hormones, and Metabolic Profiles in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Metformin improves menstrual cycles and hormone levels in women with PCOS, mostly within the first 6 months.
research Fibromodulin Deficiency Alters Temporospatial Expression Patterns of Transforming Growth Factor-β Ligands and Receptors During Adult Mouse Skin Wound Healing
Mice lacking fibromodulin have disrupted healing patterns, leading to abnormal skin repair and scarring.
research 1α,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 Modulates the Hair-Inductive Capacity of Dermal Papilla Cells: Therapeutic Potential for Hair Regeneration
Vitamin D3 can help improve hair growth by enhancing the function of specific skin cells and could be useful in hair regeneration treatments.
research Several Selective Protein Kinase C Inhibitors Including Procyanidins Promote Hair Growth
Certain substances that block a specific protein help promote hair growth.
research A Role of Placental Growth Factor in Hair Growth
Placental growth factor may help treat hair loss.

The Ovol2-Zeb1 circuit is crucial for skin healing and hair growth by guiding cell movement and growth.
research Current Evaluation of Amenorrhea
Amenorrhea is when a woman doesn't have periods, with primary amenorrhea starting by age 15 or within five years of breast development, and secondary amenorrhea when periods stop for three months. It affects 3-4% of women not pregnant, breastfeeding, or in menopause, mainly due to polycystic ovary syndrome, hypothalamic amenorrhea, hyperprolactinemia, and ovarian failure.
