510-540 / 1000+ resultsresearch Assessing the Clinicophenotypic Characteristics and Metabolic Changes in Males with Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia and Altered Hormonal Profile: A Comparative Cross-Sectional Study
research The Role of Correction of Metabolic Disorders in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Women
Using a combined treatment of minoxidil and metformin can improve hair loss in women by normalizing hormone and metabolism levels.
research Influence of Finasteride Treatment on Metabolic Profile of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Taking 1 mg finasteride for a year reduces dihydrotestosterone levels in men with early hair loss, but doesn't change their metabolic state.
research Spermidine/Spermine-N1-Acetyltransferase: A Key Metabolic Regulator
Spermidine/spermine-N(1)-acetyltransferase (SSAT) was identified as a crucial enzyme regulating cellular polyamine content, impacting normal and neoplastic growth, ion channel regulation, and potentially cancer chemotherapy. SSAT activity was highly regulated and could be induced by various stimuli, affecting polyamine homeostasis and linking polyamine metabolism to lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. Increased SSAT activity led to a futile cycle consuming ATP and acetyl-CoA, and was associated with adverse effects such as pancreatic cell death, tissue growth blockage, behavioral changes, and hair loss. SSAT also interacted with proteins like hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha and NF-kappaB, though the exact mechanisms were unclear. While SSAT was considered a potential target for diseases beyond cancer, its broad physiological effects necessitated careful targeting to avoid toxicity.
research Genetic, Hormonal, and Metabolic Aspects of PCOS: An Update
The document concludes that insulin resistance is key in PCOS development and early treatment is crucial to prevent complications.
research Mechanisms of Disease: Selective Inhibition of 11β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 1 as a Novel Treatment for Metabolic Syndrome
Blocking the enzyme 11β-HSD1 might help treat obesity and metabolic issues.
research Specific Dermatologic Features of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Its Association with Biochemical Markers of Metabolic Syndrome and Hyperandrogenism
Hirsutism is a strong sign of high male hormones and metabolic problems in women with PCOS, but acne and hair loss are not.
research Clinical, Metabolic, and Endocrine Parameters in Response to Metformin and Lifestyle Intervention in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Randomized, Double-Blind, and Placebo-Controlled Trial
Metformin combined with lifestyle changes improves insulin resistance and reduces testosterone levels in women with PCOS more than lifestyle changes alone.
research Effects of Melatonin Administration on Mental Health Parameters, Metabolic and Genetic Profiles in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial
Melatonin improved mental health and metabolism in women with PCOS.
research Circulating Testosterone and Feather-Gene Expression of Receptors and Metabolic Enzymes in Relation to Melanin-Based Coloration in the Barn Owl
Barn owls with smaller black spots have higher testosterone levels, which might be due to genetic effects on hormone regulation rather than hormone effects on coloration.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Common Reproductive Syndrome with Long-Term Metabolic Consequences
Polycystic ovary syndrome increases the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and endometrial cancer, and requires early treatment to manage these risks.
research Co-Administration of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Worsens the Adverse Metabolic Effects of Prescribed Glucocorticoids
Taking 5α-reductase inhibitors with prednisolone can worsen its negative effects on metabolism.
research Insulin Resistance and Beta-Cell Dysfunction and the Relationship with Cardio-Metabolic Disorders Among Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS have more insulin resistance and are more likely to have heart-related health issues, with insulin resistance being a bigger factor than β-cell problems.
research Pyruvate Kinase M2 Promotes Hair Regeneration by Connecting Metabolic and Wnt/Beta-Catenin Signaling
The enzyme pyruvate kinase M2 helps hair regrowth and could be a potential treatment for hair loss.
research Pyruvate Kinase M2 Promotes Hair Regeneration by Connecting Metabolic and Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling
Activating PKM2 and Wnt/β-catenin signaling together can potentially enhance hair growth and could be a treatment for hair loss.
research LSD1 Interacting With HSP90 Promotes Skin Wound Healing by Inducing Metabolic Reprogramming of Hair Follicle Stem Cells Through the c-MYC/LDHA Axis
LSD1 and HSP90 help heal skin wounds by changing hair follicle stem cells' metabolism.
research Ton1 Recruiting Motif 21 Positively Regulates the Flavonoid Metabolic Pathway at the Translational Level in Arabidopsis Thaliana
TRM21 helps control flavonoid production and root hair growth in Arabidopsis thaliana.
research Pyruvate Kinase M2 Promotes Hair Regeneration by Connecting Metabolic and Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling
Pyruvate Kinase M2 helps hair grow by linking energy production and a key hair growth pathway.
research Type 2 Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome, and Lipid Metabolism
Type 2 diabetes in youth is increasing, with high treatment failure rates and more severe than Type 1; certain drugs can lower lipid levels effectively with varying side effects, and apples may benefit heart health like statins but with fewer side effects.
research Osteopontin Level in Androgenetic Alopecia and Its Relation to Metabolic Disorders
Osteopontin levels are higher in people with androgenetic alopecia and are linked to metabolic disorders.
research Biotin Deficiency Complicating Parenteral Alimentation: Diagnosis, Metabolic Repercussions, and Treatment
Biotin deficiency in patients on total parenteral nutrition can cause serious symptoms but can be treated with biotin supplements.
research Effect of Resveratrol on Menstrual Cyclicity, Hyperandrogenism, and Metabolic Profile in Women with PCOS
Resveratrol improved menstrual regularity and reduced hair loss in women with PCOS.
research Prevalence of Vitamin D Deficiency in Slovak Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Its Relation to Metabolic and Reproductive Abnormalities
Vitamin D deficiency is common in women with PCOS and linked to some metabolic problems, but not the main cause of their metabolic issues.
research A Modified Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy for the Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes and Metabolic Syndrome in Obesity
Modified laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy effectively controls diabetes and treats obesity with minimal complications.
research Male Equivalent Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: Hormonal, Metabolic, and Clinical Aspects
