New therapies are being developed that target integrin pathways to treat various diseases.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss: Therapeutic Update
Topical minoxidil is the best-supported treatment for female hair loss, but personalized plans are needed.
research Stem Cell Dynamics in the Hair Follicle Niche
Stem cells in the hair follicle are regulated by their surrounding environment, which is important for hair growth.
research Is Hormonal Treatment Still an Option in Acne Today?
Hormonal treatments are effective as a second-line option for moderate-to-severe acne in females, but should be used with caution due to health risks.
research Androgen Receptor Ligands: Agonists and Antagonists
Different substances that activate or block the androgen receptor can affect male development and treat conditions like prostate cancer.
research Glucocorticoid Receptor Mutants Demonstrate Increased Motility Inside the Nucleus of Living Cells: Time of Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching Is an Integrated Measure of Receptor Function
Certain defective glucocorticoid receptor mutants move faster inside cell nuclei and work less effectively.
research Advances in Male Hormone Substitution Therapy
New treatments for low male hormones improved sexual function and mood but had unclear risks, especially for older men.
research Ginsenoside F2 Reduces Hair Loss by Controlling Apoptosis Through the Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein Cleavage Activating Protein and Transforming Growth Factor-β Pathways in a Dihydrotestosterone-Induced Mouse Model
Ginsenoside F2 may help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth better than finasteride.
research Influence of Dosing Time on the Efficacy and Safety of Finasteride in Rats

research Androgenetic Alopecia: An Autosomal Dominant Disorder
Hair loss in androgenetic alopecia is caused by genetic factors and androgen excess, and can be treated with combined therapies.
research Wnt Signaling: The Good and the Bad
Wnt signaling is important for development and cell regulation but can cause diseases like cancer when not working properly.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Clinical Biochemistry of Dihydrotestosterone
Understanding how DHT works is important for diagnosing and treating hormone-related disorders.
