New treatments targeting fibrosis could improve urinary symptoms in BPH.
research The Pathophysiology of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Understanding PCOS and Its Endocrinology
The conclusion is that PCOS is caused by ovarian sensitivity to hormones and disrupted hormone control, possibly due to ovarian factors, and more research is needed.
research Efficacy and Side Effects of Drugs Commonly Used for the Treatment of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Associated With Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Different drugs for prostate-related urinary symptoms work but have various side effects, and treatment should be tailored to the individual.
research The New Paradigm for Androgenetic Alopecia and Plant-Based Folk Remedies: 5α-Reductase Inhibition, Reversal of Secondary Microinflammation, and Improving Insulin Resistance

research Effects of Chronic Inhibition of Testosterone Metabolism on Cardiac Remodeling After Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Myocardial Damage in Gonadectomized Rats
Testosterone reduces heart damage and inflammation after injury.
research The Possibilities of Using Chromium Salts as an Agent Supporting Treatment of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Chromium salts may help with insulin sensitivity in PCOS, but more research is needed to confirm their overall effectiveness and safety.
research Generation of Human Hair Follicle Organoids In Vitro and Ex Vivo by Co-Culture of Primary Human Hair Matrix Keratinocytes and Dermal Papilla Fibroblasts
Scientists successfully grew mini hair follicles using human skin cells, which could help treat baldness.
research The Potential Involvement of Cholinergic System in Finasteride Induced Cognitive Dysfunction
Finasteride might affect memory by impacting cholinergic system.
research Sympathetic Reinnervation of Intact and Upper Follicle Xenografts into BALB/c-nu/nu Mice
Transplanted rat hair follicles grew hair and had increased but not fully restored nerve connections in mice.
research Ornithine Decarboxylase Is Upregulated by the Androgen Receptor in Skeletal Muscle and Regulates Myoblast Proliferation
The study found that ornithine decarboxylase 1 (Odc1) was regulated by the androgen receptor (AR) in skeletal muscle, with higher expression in adult male mice compared to females and younger males. Odc1 was essential for myoblast proliferation, as its inhibition reduced myoblast numbers, while overexpression increased them. AR deletion in mice led to decreased Odc1 expression, indicating direct regulation by AR. Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) also upregulated Odc1 in human myoblasts, supporting its role in proliferation. These findings suggested that androgens, through AR, contributed to greater muscle mass in males and normal muscle development, with potential therapeutic implications for enhancing muscle mass in conditions like HIV, cancer cachexia, and sarcopenia. ODC was already a target for treating hirsutism, indicating the potential for developing ODC agonists to increase muscle mass without androgen side effects.
research Signature Selection Analysis Reveals Candidate Genes Associated With Production Traits in Iranian Sheep Breeds
Certain genes in Iranian sheep are linked to wool production and heat adaptation.
research Recent Progress in Understanding the Effect of Sympathetic Nerves on Hair Follicle Growth
