The vitamin D receptor is crucial for bone health and affects various body systems, with mutations potentially leading to disease.

Certain mature cells in mouse lungs can turn back into stem cells to aid in tissue repair.

The vitamin D receptor is involved in multiple body functions beyond calcium regulation, including immune response and rapid reactions not related to gene activity.

Turning white fat into brown-like fat could help fight obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Apple polyphenol, especially oligomeric procyanidins, can reduce fat absorption and lower blood fat levels.

Removing part of the vitamin D receptor stops vitamin D from working properly.

Vitamin D receptor interacts with certain dietary components to help prevent diseases and regulate hair growth.

Growing human skin cells in a 3D environment can stimulate new hair growth.

Cyproterone acetate is effective for acne but less so for hirsutism and alopecia, with some side effects and quick menstrual cycle recovery after treatment.

AGA causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to DHT binding, and can be treated with finasteride and minoxidil.

Insulin resistance and obesity are key factors in the development and worsening of polycystic ovary syndrome, and lifestyle changes are important for managing it.

Skin fat cells help with skin balance, hair growth, and healing wounds.

Iron deficiency may be related to hair loss, but there's not enough evidence to recommend iron screening or supplements for all hair loss patients.

Finasteride for hair loss can cause long-lasting sexual side effects like low libido and erectile dysfunction.

Wnt signaling controls whether hair follicle stem cells stay inactive or regenerate hair.

The document concludes that the exact way alcohol causes harm to fetal development is unknown, but it significantly affects nutrient transport to the fetus and a safe level of alcohol during pregnancy is not determined.

Some people with pattern hair loss may also have scalp inflammation and scarring similar to lichen planopilaris.

Androgens, like testosterone, are crucial for early testicular descent in rats.

Finasteride effectively blocks enzyme causing male pattern baldness.

Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.

Obesity is linked to various skin problems and may increase the risk of skin cancer.

Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.

Hair loss occurs due to fewer papillary cells, smaller follicles, and shorter growth phases.

Zinc is crucial for nutrition, especially in patients with specific health conditions, and requires careful supplementation and monitoring.

Finasteride may cause long-lasting sexual side effects.

Targeting hair follicles can improve skin treatments and reduce side effects.

Survivors of Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis need ongoing care for various long-term health problems.

Olive oil compounds may help prevent cancer in animals, but human results are mixed.

Lampreys have a functional vitamin D receptor that may help detoxify harmful substances.
