Melatonin receptors in hair follicles help regulate hair growth and could treat hair loss.
research Evidence-Based and Potential Benefits of Metformin in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Comprehensive Review
Metformin helps with menstrual cycles and insulin levels in PCOS but is less effective for hair growth, diabetes prevention, and weight loss, and may improve fertility and reduce diabetes risk.
research Xenobiotic-Metabolizing Enzymes in the Skin of Rat, Mouse, Pig, Guinea Pig, Man, and in Human Skin Models
Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.
research Efficacy of Platelet-Rich Plasma in the Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections can improve hair count, thickness, and strength in people with androgenic alopecia.
research Modulation of Glucocorticoid Action and the Treatment of Type-2 Diabetes
Targeting glucocorticoid action might help treat type-2 diabetes, but human trials are needed.
research The Optimal Holding Solution and Temperature for Hair Follicle Grafts
Best solution for storing hair grafts is saline with ATP at 4 degrees Celsius, but no definitive best method was confirmed.
research Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (17β-HSD3, 17β-HSD5, and 3α-HSD3) Inhibitors: Extragonadal Regulation of Intracellular Sex Steroid Hormone Levels
Certain inhibitors can potentially treat prostate cancer and other hormone-dependent conditions by controlling sex hormone levels in cells.
