research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and the Differential Diagnosis of Hyperandrogenism
The document concludes that careful evaluation is needed to diagnose PCOS correctly due to similar symptoms in other conditions, and accurate testosterone level measurement is crucial.
research Treatment of Female Androgenetic Alopecia With Cimetidine
A drug called cimetidine can help treat hair loss in women by blocking androgen receptors. However, it's not the first choice and needs more research.
research Cutaneous Features of Myotonic Dystrophy Types 1 and 2: Implications of Premature Aging and Vitamin D Homeostasis
Patients with myotonic dystrophy often have skin problems that suggest early aging and vitamin D issues, and the severity of these problems is linked to their genetic condition and vitamin D levels.
research Are Hair Follicle Stem Cells Promising Candidates for Wound Healing?
Hair follicle stem cells are promising for wound healing but require more research for safe clinical use.
research Annurca Apple Polyphenols Ignite Keratin Production in Hair Follicles by Inhibiting the Pentose Phosphate Pathway and Amino Acid Oxidation
Annurca apple extract promotes hair growth by changing hair follicle metabolism to boost keratin production.
research Exposure of Xenopus Laevis Tadpoles to Finasteride, an Inhibitor of 5-Alpha Reductase Activity, Impairs Spermatogenesis and Alters Hypophyseal Feedback Mechanisms
Finasteride exposure harms tadpole reproduction and hormone balance.
research Cutaneous Manifestations of Endocrine-Metabolic Disease and Nutritional Deficiency in the Elderly
Skin problems in older people can indicate hormonal diseases, nutritional deficiencies, or conditions like diabetes, menopause, and HIV.
research Clinical Characterization of Men with Long QT Syndrome and Torsades de Pointes Associated with Hypogonadism: A Review and Pharmacovigilance Study

research AKR1D1 Regulates Glucocorticoid Availability and Glucocorticoid Receptor Activation in Human Hepatoma Cells
AKR1D1 controls glucocorticoid levels and receptor activity in liver cells.
research Stem Cell Identification: In Vivo Lineage Analysis Versus In Vitro Isolation And Clonal Expansion
In vivo lineage labelling is better than in vitro methods for identifying and understanding stem cells.
research Androgenic Disorders of Women: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Decision Making
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and tailored long-term treatment can effectively manage androgenic disorders in women, improving patient care outcomes.
research From Basal Cell Carcinoma Morphogenesis to Alopecia Induced by Hedgehog Inhibitors: Connecting the Dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
research Hirsutism, Postpartum Telogen Effluvium, and Male Pattern Alopecia
Hormonal changes during and after pregnancy can cause hair growth changes and hair loss, with treatments available for some conditions.
research Transgender Competent Provider
Healthcare providers need better education and policies to serve transgender individuals effectively.
research PCOS: Update and Diagnostic Approach
The document concludes that more research is needed to fully understand the causes of PCOS.
research Roles of Wnt7a in Embryo Development, Tissue Homeostasis, and Human Diseases
Wnt7a protein is crucial for development and tissue maintenance and plays varying roles in diseases and potential treatments.
research COVID-19 and Hypopituitarism
COVID-19 and hypopituitarism (reduced pituitary gland function) are linked, with the latter's related health issues potentially worsening COVID-19 outcomes, and COVID-19 possibly increasing risk for pituitary complications.
research The Effect of Parathyroid Hormones on Hair Follicle Physiology: Implications for Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Parathyroid hormones are important for hair growth, but their use in treating hair loss from chemotherapy is still uncertain.
research Indian Hedgehog Controls Proliferation and Differentiation in Skin Tumorigenesis and Protects Against Malignant Progression
