research Fibroproliferative Genes Are Preferentially Expressed in Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia
Genes linked to fibrosis are more active in people with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.
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.
research Androgen Receptors And Their Biology
Androgen receptors are key for development and health, affecting conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness.
