Insulin or IGF-I is needed for hair growth in newborn mice, while minoxidil helps adult mouse hair grow, suggesting a way to study human hair loss.
research History of Discovery of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) was first described in 1721, officially diagnosed in the 1990s, and is now known to be partly genetic and linked to insulin resistance, with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and carbohydrate metabolism issues.
research Chromium Supplementation in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Chromium supplements don't improve insulin, hormone levels, or cholesterol in women with PCOS but raise testosterone levels.
research Clinical Case Seminar: Postmenopausal Androgen Excess - Challenges in Diagnostic Work-Up and Management of Ovarian Thecosis
The conclusion is that removing both ovaries is the best treatment for excess male hormones in postmenopausal women, with medication as another option, and managing insulin resistance is important for diagnosis and treatment.
research 5α-Reductase Activity in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Women with PCOS have higher 5α-reductase activity, which may be linked to insulin resistance.
research Current Recommendations for the Diagnostic Evaluation and Follow-Up of Patients Presenting with Symptomatic Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) requires a detailed patient history, ultrasound scanning, hormone level checks, and assessments of ovulation, obesity, and insulin resistance. It's a variable condition that needs individualized management and is a significant risk factor for type 2 diabetes.
research Expression of 11β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 1 in Visceral and Subcutaneous Adipose Tissues of Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Is Associated with Adiposity
Increased HSD11B1 enzyme expression is linked to higher body fat and insulin resistance.
research Rabson-Mendenhall Syndrome: Two Case Reports and a Brief Review of the Literature
The document concludes that Rabson-Mendenhall syndrome requires novel treatments for insulin resistance and emphasizes the importance of dental care in affected patients.
research Selenium and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Current Knowledge and Future Directions
Selenium might help with insulin resistance and cholesterol in PCOS, but more research is needed to confirm its benefits.
research Editorial
Doctors used to view PCOS too narrowly, but now understand that insulin resistance is a key factor in the condition.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Adolescents
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) in teenagers is a complex condition linked to genetics and environment, often associated with obesity and insulin resistance, and is treated with lifestyle changes and medication.
research Serum-Free Culture of Wool Follicles: Effects of Nutrients, Growth Factors, and Hormones
Wool follicles grew fibres for 8-10 days in a serum-free culture, influenced by calcium, glucose, amino acids, and insulin.
research Metabolic Dysfunction in Female Mice with Disruption of 5α-Reductase 1
Female mice with disrupted 5α-reductase 1 had significant metabolic issues, including stress response problems, insulin resistance, liver fat buildup, and obesity.
research Comparison of Spironolactone and Spironolactone Plus Metformin in the Treatment of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Both treatments reduced excessive hair growth in PCOS, but there was no difference in weight, hair score, hormone levels, or insulin resistance.
research Implications of a Clinically Ignored Site of Acanthosis Nigricans: The Knuckles
Knuckle Acanthosis Nigricans is common in Latin American youth and may indicate early insulin resistance, especially in those with normal weight.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Diagnosis, Symptoms, and Management
PCOS is a condition causing irregular periods, excess male hormones, and infertility, often managed by targeting insulin resistance and specific symptoms.
research Examination of Androgenetic Alopecia with Serum Biomarkers
Serum biomarkers like insulin-like growth factor-1 and vitamin D may help diagnose androgenetic alopecia.
research Lipin 1 Gene Polymorphisms in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Certain gene variations might help protect against insulin resistance and glucose intolerance in people with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
research The Role of Hormones in Hidradenitis Suppurativa: A Systematic Review
Hormone imbalance is linked to Hidradenitis Suppurativa, a skin condition, and treatments like anti-androgenic therapy and metformin can help. It's also suggested to check patients for insulin resistance and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
research Influence of the Alkylsulfonylamino Substituent Located at the 6-Position of 2,2-Dimethylchromans Structurally Related to Cromakalim: From Potassium Channel Openers to Calcium Entry Blockers?
New compounds similar to cromakalim were less effective at inhibiting insulin release but improved in solubility and one acted as a calcium entry blocker, not a potassium channel opener.
research Recovery from Alopecia Areata in a Patient with Autoimmune Polyglandular Syndrome Type 3
Insulin therapy helped a man with autoimmune issues regrow his hair.
research The Possibilities of Using Chromium Salts as an Agent Supporting Treatment of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Chromium salts may help with insulin sensitivity in PCOS, but more research is needed to confirm their overall effectiveness and safety.
research Cardiometabolic Risk Factors in Rosuvastatin-Treated Men with Mixed Dyslipidemia and Early-Onset Androgenic Alopecia
