research Finasteride for Chronic Central Serous Chorioretinopathy
Finasteride may help treat chronic CSC, improving vision.
research Pathobiology of Chemotherapy-Induced Hair Loss
Chemotherapy causes hair loss by damaging hair follicles and stem cells, with more research needed for prevention and treatment.
research A Guide to Assessing Damage Response Pathways of the Hair Follicle: Lessons From Cyclophosphamide-Induced Alopecia in Mice
The document concludes that assessing hair follicle damage due to cyclophosphamide in mice involves analyzing structural changes and suggests a scoring system for standardized evaluation.
research Protection Against Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
No treatment fully prevents hair loss from chemotherapy yet.
research Hirsutism and the Variable Response of the Pilosebaceous Unit to Androgens
Different women's hair and skin glands respond to hormones in varied ways, which can cause unwanted hair growth even with normal hormone levels, and more research is needed to treat this effectively.
research Stress and Psychoneuroimmunologic Factors in Dermatology
Stress and emotional factors can worsen skin conditions by affecting the immune system.
research Cytoskeletal Regulation of Dermal Regeneration
Targeting the actin cytoskeleton could improve skin healing and reduce scarring.
research Ascorbigen Induces Dermal Papilla Cell Proliferation In Vitro, But Fails To Modulate Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia In Vivo
Ascorbigen increases hair cell growth in a lab setting but does not prevent hair loss from chemotherapy in mice.
research Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Chemotherapy often causes hair loss, which usually grows back within 3 to 6 months, but there's no effective treatment to prevent it.
research The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Challenges and Opportunities in Adolescent Medicine
Early treatment of PCOS in teens is crucial to prevent long-term health issues like diabetes and heart disease.
research Ovine Placental Steroid Synthesis and Metabolism in Late Gestation
Diet changes hormone levels in pregnant ewes by affecting metabolism, not placental synthesis.
research Topical Finasteride Therapy in Hirsutism
Topical finasteride may help treat facial hirsutism in women.
research LPA3, A Unique G Protein-Coupled Receptor For Lysophosphatidic Acid
LPA3 is crucial for embryo implantation and links LPA to prostaglandin signaling.
research The Mineralocorticoid Receptor as a Novel Player in Skin Biology: Beyond the Renal Horizon?
The mineralocorticoid receptor may play a role in skin and hair health and could be a new target for treating related disorders.
research Hormonal Therapy for Acne
Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in causing acne, and treatments like hormone control pills and hormone-blocking medications can help.
research Hormones and Absence Epilepsy
Stress and hormones like progesterone can affect absence seizures, but their effects change with different life stages.
research Kennedy's Disease and Partial Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome: Report of 4 Cases and Literature Review
The conclusion is that adult males with muscle weakness and hormonal imbalances should be tested for Kennedy's disease.
research Matriptase Activation and Shedding with HAI-1 Induced by Steroid Sex Hormones in Human Prostate Cancer Cells, but Not in Breast Cancer Cells
Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.
research Therapeutic Control of Androgen Action
Understanding how androgens work is key for creating new treatments for prostate issues and hair/skin conditions.
research Hair Biology
The document explains hair biology, the causes of hair loss, and reviews various hair loss treatments.
research Advances in Mitochondria-Centered Mechanism Behind the Roles of Androgens and Androgen Receptor in the Regulation of Glucose and Lipid Metabolism
Androgens and androgen receptors are important for metabolic health, affecting how the body uses glucose and fats through mitochondrial function.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Androgens Modify Wnt Agonists/Antagonists Expression Balance in Dermal Papilla Cells Preventing Hair Follicle Stem Cell Differentiation in Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgens prevent hair growth by changing Wnt signals in cells.
research Use of Oral Contraceptives in the Management of Acne
Birth control pills with low-dose estrogen and antiandrogenic progestins can effectively treat acne.
research Characteristics of Flutamide Action on Prostatic and Testicular Functions in the Rat
Flutamide combined with an LHRH agonist effectively inhibits prostate growth, suggesting it could treat prostate cancer.
research Other Antiandrogens: Alternative Treatments for Acne and Hirsutism
Spironolactone works well for acne and hirsutism, isotretinoin is very effective for acne and may have antiandrogenic effects, and 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors should be considered antiandrogens.
research Effects of Testosterone on the Expression of Connexin 26 and Connexin 43 in the Uterus of Rats During Early Pregnancy
Testosterone changes important cell communication proteins in pregnant rats' uteruses, which might affect pregnancy success.
research Male-Pattern Baldness, Common Latent Viruses, and Microcompetition
Common latent viruses might contribute to male-pattern baldness by disrupting cell processes that normally suppress hair loss-related proteins.
