Neuroimaging suggests that treatments targeting brain steroids could help control epilepsy, especially types linked to the menstrual cycle.
research A Review of Coumarin Derivatives in Pharmacotherapy of Breast Cancer
Coumarin derivatives show promise as anti-estrogenic agents for treating breast cancer, with some in clinical trials.
research Hormone Blocking Anticancer Drugs
The document explains how certain drugs block hormones to treat cancers like breast and prostate cancer.
research Steroid Hormones of Reproduction and Sexual Development
Sex hormones affect reproduction, sexual development, and oral health, and it's important for dental practitioners to understand their effects and interactions.
research Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Action of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors May Be Mediated by Dehydroepiandrosterone
Certain drugs like Dutasteride and Finasteride might help fight SARS-CoV-2 by increasing levels of a steroid called DHEA, which can protect the heart and increase nitric oxide to counteract the virus.
research 17β-Estradiol Inhibits the Production of RANTES in Human Keratinocytes
17β-estradiol can reduce inflammation in the skin.
research Kelulut Honey Regulates Sex Steroid Receptors in a Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Rat Model

research Aldosterone- and Cortisol-Cosecreting Adrenal Adenoma, Ovarian Hyperthecosis, and Breast Cancer
The conclusion is that thorough investigation of hypertension and hormonal dysfunctions is important, and there may be a link between these conditions and cancer.
research Persistent Gynecomastia Due to Short-Term Low-Dose Finasteride for Androgenetic Alopecia
A man's breast enlargement from low-dose finasteride for hair loss didn't go away, even with treatment, and might be more common than reported.
research The Effects of Estrogens on Linear Bone Growth
Estrogens are key for bone growth spurts in both boys and girls and affect growth into adulthood.
research Using the zebrafish lateral line to uncover novel mechanisms of action and prevention in drug-induced hair cell death
The study used zebrafish to investigate drug-induced hair cell death and identify protective agents. Zebrafish were ideal due to their genetic similarities to mammals and external hair cells. Researchers found three zebrafish mutants resistant to neomycin-induced hair cell death, involving genes not previously linked to hair cell toxicity. They screened 10,960 compounds, identifying several protective agents, including FDA-approved drugs. The study revealed that many protective compounds did not affect the bactericidal activity of aminoglycosides, except Benzamil. Selective estrogen receptor modulators were effective against neomycin exposure. The research highlighted disrupted calcium homeostasis as a mechanism of hair cell toxicity, with calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum causing mitochondrial dysfunction and increased reactive oxygen species. The zebrafish model was effective in understanding hair cell death mechanisms and identifying potential treatments for hearing loss and balance disorders.
research The Immune Response to COVID-19: Does Sex Matter?
Men and women get COVID-19 at similar rates, but men tend to get sicker and have a higher risk of dying, while women usually have stronger immune responses and vaccine reactions.
