The conclusion is that adult males with muscle weakness and hormonal imbalances should be tested for Kennedy's disease.
research The Role of Non-Aromatizable Testosterone Metabolite in Metabolic Pathways
Normal levels of DHT can reduce belly fat and increase muscle, but too much can lead to hair loss, prostate issues, and possibly heart disease.
research Effects of Nitrendipine, Nifedipine, Verapamil, Phentolamine, Papaverine, and Minoxidil on Contractions of Isolated Rabbit Aortic Smooth Muscle
Nitrendipine and nifedipine effectively block muscle contractions, while papaverine relaxes them and minoxidil needs high amounts to work.
research Stem Cell Niches in Mammals
Stem cell niches are crucial for regulating stem cell renewal and differentiation, and understanding them can help in developing regenerative therapies.
research Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy: Pathogenesis and Clinical Management
Kennedy's disease leads to muscle weakness without a cure, but exercise and managing symptoms may help patients live a normal lifespan.

The lentiviral array can monitor and predict gene activity during stem cell differentiation.
research The Use of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Aesthetic and Regenerative Medicine: A Comprehensive Review
Platelet-rich plasma may help in skin and hair treatments, and with muscle and joint healing, but more research is needed to fully understand its benefits and limitations.
research Morpho-Regulation in Diverse Chicken Feather Formation: Integrating Branching Modules and Sex Hormone-Dependent Morpho-Regulatory Modules
Sex hormones, especially estradiol, can change chicken feather shapes and colors.
research Bone vs. Fat: Embryonic Origin of Progenitors Determines Response to Androgen in Adipocytes and Osteoblasts
Androgens affect bone and fat cell development differently based on the cells' embryonic origin.
research Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interactions Promote Hair Follicle Neogenesis and a New Stem Cell Niche in Adult Corneal Epithelium
Adult hair follicle cells can create new hair follicles from corneal cells with the right support.
research Multi-Tasking Epidermal Stem Cells: Beyond Epidermal Maintenance
Epidermal stem cells have various roles in skin beyond just maintenance, including forming specialized structures and aiding in skin repair and regeneration.
research Progenitor-Derived Endothelin Controls Dermal Sheath Contraction for Hair Follicle Regression
A specific signal from hair cells controls the tightening of the surrounding muscle, which is necessary for hair shedding.
research Possible Role of 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors in Non-Invasive Bladder Urothelial Neoplasm: Multicentre Study
5-alpha reductase inhibitors may reduce bladder cancer recurrence and improve survival.
research Mature Adipocytes Inhibit the Antimicrobial Function of Dermal Adipogenic Stem Cells: An Explanation for Impaired Cutaneous Defense in Obesity
Obesity can weaken the skin's ability to fight infections because fat cells stop and reduce the infection-fighting properties of nearby stem cells.
research MiR-133a-3p and MiR-145-5p Co-Promote Goat Hair Follicle Stem Cell Differentiation by Regulating NANOG and SOX9 Expression
miR-133a-3p and miR-145-5p help goat hair follicle stem cells differentiate by controlling NANOG and SOX9.
