This study suggests that neurosteroids and compounds acting on GABA(A) receptors, like THIP, may modulate ethanol intake by influencing drinking patterns.

This study found that high levels of parathyroid hormone-related protein expression can result in the production of shorter hair shafts, likely through effects on angiogenesis.

Losartan can cause temporary loss of taste.

This study found that all-trans and 9-cis retinoic acids increase steroid sulfatase activity in HL60 cells through mechanisms involving RARα/RXR heterodimers and multiple signaling pathways.

This study in rats suggests that combining the 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor 4-MA with the antiandrogen Flutamide may enhance prostate cancer therapy by additively inhibiting prostatic growth and mRNA levels of androgen-sensitive prostatic binding proteins.

Escin helps keep hair follicles in the growth phase longer.

In this animal study, AGO (agomelatine) effectively alleviated testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia in rats by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, indicating its potential as a therapeutic option for managing BPH through specific signaling pathways.

This case study highlights an adolescent girl with atypical anorexia nervosa who experienced mental health changes after using semaglutide, underscoring the need for cautious prescription and follow-up of this medication to prevent adverse effects in vulnerable individuals.

This study explores potential strategies for targeted drug delivery specifically to pancreatic beta-cells in type 2 diabetes treatment, highlighting methods for inducing drug expression in beta-cells, suitable drug carriers, active targeting peptides, and optimal administration routes.

In this study, 27.9% of Parkinson's disease patients reported hair loss, with a higher incidence linked to a daily levodopa-equivalent dose over 448 mg, suggesting an association between dopaminergic medication use and hair loss complaints.

This case study describes a rare presentation of childhood lupus with recurrent pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade that responded to glucocorticoid therapy.

This case study reported an improvement in lower limb edema for a patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus after starting dulaglutide treatment, suggesting a potential role of the drug in sodium retention disorders.

Sex hormones affect reproduction, sexual development, and oral health, and it's important for dental practitioners to understand their effects and interactions.

This chapter reviews pharmacodynamic evaluations in endocrine disorders focusing on oral antidiabetics, insulin analogues, and hormone interactions, but reports no new results.

In this study, flutamide at therapeutic doses caused significant histological changes in the testes and epididymis of adult albino rats, reducing androgen receptor immunoreactivity and increasing estrogen receptor immunoreactivity.

Hair graying is caused by the loss of pigment cells due to poor maintenance of stem cells in the hair follicle.

Dutasteride, fesoterodine, and finasteride help older patients with urinary issues.

This article discusses female pattern hair loss and explores potential causes beyond androgenic factors, reporting no new research findings.

This study found that prenatal exposure to finasteride in rats led to permanent changes in developmental endpoints like anogenital distance and nipple retention, which were predictive of further reproductive tract malformations.

This review found that fulvestrant is well tolerated in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive advanced breast cancer, showing lower incidence of joint disorders than non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors.

This study found that daily topical application of 500 microg/ml latanoprost led to moderate to marked hair regrowth in a macaque model of androgenetic alopecia.

Minoxidil effectively treats hair loss, with better results in women.

This article reviews the characteristics, diagnosis, and management of premature adrenarche and suggests it may predict future ovarian hyperandrogenism in some adolescents; no new clinical results are reported.

This study found that treatment with the pure antiandrogen Flutamide did not affect the estrous cycle or plasma levels of most hormones in female rats, supporting its potential use for treating hirsutism, acne, and alopecia in women.

This case report describes reversible hair loss in a patient taking aripiprazole, suggesting this side effect may be common among psychotropic medications.

In this pilot study, topical latanoprost acid was observed to increase hair count and improve hair follicle structure in women with androgenetic alopecia, with no serious adverse events, suggesting potential for further investigation to confirm its efficacy and safety.

This case study suggests that long-term treatment with buprenorphine/naloxone for opioid addiction may lead to secondary adrenal insufficiency, warranting further investigation.

In this case study, laparoscopic bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was associated with reduced androgen levels and partial reversal of male-pattern hair loss in a postmenopausal woman with ovarian hyperandrogenism.

Some cells may slow melanoma growth, a protein could affect skin pigmentation, a gene-silencing method might treat hair defects, skin bacteria changes likely result from eczema, and a defensin protein could help treat multiple sclerosis.
