January 2017 in “Bulletin of Pharmaceutical Research” This study developed chemical fingerprints to differentiate Eclipta prostrata and Wedelia calendulacea, two plants often confused and adulterated in the Indian herbal market, identifying distinct chemical profiles that can prevent such adulteration.
This chapter provides an overview of terminology for various skin lesions, including primary and secondary types, but does not report new findings or results.
March 2015 in “DergiPark (Istanbul University)” This study found that basal serum cortisol levels are not significantly related to the form or duration of vitiligo in patients, suggesting their inadequacy in diagnosing subclinical adrenal insufficiency.
January 2015 in “Elsevier eBooks” This chapter reviews the use of liposomes and cyclodextrins to improve the delivery and effectiveness of the peptide angiotensin-(1-7) in various therapeutic applications and reports no new experimental results.
January 2014 in “Theriogenology” This study found that blocking neurosteroid synthesis in the brain of pregnant sheep elevated HPA axis activity, suggesting neurosteroids play a vital role in moderating stress response.
January 2014 in “China Surfactant Detergent & Cosmetics” This study established a method using reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography to determine finasteride concentration in hair cosmetics, showing a strong linear relationship with mass concentration and recoveries between 90.3% and 102.0%.
July 2013 in “Edinburgh Research Archive (University of Edinburgh)” This study found that inhibiting 5αR1 with dutasteride leads to peripheral insulin resistance and increased body fat in men, which may have implications for its use in treating benign prostatic hyperplasia.
September 2012 in “Reactions Weekly” Two girls experienced temporary hair loss after getting the HPV vaccine, which may be related to the vaccine.
May 2011 in “Journal of The American Academy of Dermatology” This research letter observed that patients with severe atopic dermatitis showed normal serum cortisol levels after hospitalization despite continued use of potent topical corticosteroids, though poor adherence may lead to overestimations of actual medication use.
April 2011 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” Hair cortisol is a reliable long-term stress marker during pregnancy.
January 2011 in “Journal of Jiangnan University” This study developed a validated method for analyzing minoxidil in hair care cosmetics, demonstrating good precision and recovery rates.
January 2010 in “Research and Practice on Chinese Medicines” This study found that coffee extraction and its active compound, caffeotannic acid, showed high enzyme inhibition activity against 5a-reductase in an in vitro model.
This study developed and validated a method to analyze active ingredients like nicotinamide and tocopherol in hair nourisher products using HPLC, which may facilitate quicker market access for these products.
This study observed that, after 90 hours of light exposure, Finasteride retained 57% of its concentration, whereas Diclofenac and Naproxen retained only 12% and 9%, respectively.
January 2009 in “Chinese Journal of Drug Application and Monitoring” This study concluded that finasteride granules are bioequivalent to finasteride tablets based on pharmacokinetic evaluation in healthy male volunteers.
January 2008 in “US endocrinology” This paper describes the hGRα gene structure and its expression, focusing on the functional properties of the longest GRα isoform, but reports no new results.
This research investigated the role of EphA1 in embryonic and adult tissues, generating mouse models suggesting potential links to skin and colon cancer, sepsis, and post-traumatic injury.
August 2006 in “Experimental dermatology” This study suggests that human scalp hair follicles express erythropoietin and its receptor, up-regulating receptor expression under hypoxic conditions, and may mimic another hypothalamus–pituitary axis equivalent involving the TRH-TSH system.
January 2005 in “Zhongguo yaofang” This study found that domestic and imported finasteride tablets were bioequivalent in terms of their pharmacokinetic parameters and relative bioavailability in human volunteers.
January 2005 in “Chinese New Drugs Journal” This study concluded that locally manufactured finasteride tablets are bioequivalent to imported ones based on pharmacokinetic profiles in male volunteers.
