research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases
The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.
research Types I and II Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.
research Stress Inhibits Hair Growth in Mice by Inducing Premature Catagen Development and Harmful Perifollicular Inflammatory Events via Neuropeptide Substance P-Dependent Pathways
Stress stops hair growth in mice by causing early hair growth phase end and harmful inflammation through a specific nerve-related pathway.
research Melatonin: A Cutaneous Perspective on Its Production, Metabolism, and Functions
Melatonin may benefit skin health and could be a promising treatment in dermatology.
research Testosterone Therapy for Transgender Men: Effects and Safety
Testosterone therapy in transgender men has both desired effects like increased muscle mass and potential health risks such as higher cardiovascular risk.
research Cartilage to Bone Transformation During Fracture Healing Is Coordinated by the Invading Vasculature and Induction of the Core Pluripotency Genes
Blood vessels and specific genes help turn cartilage into bone when bones heal.
research The Pathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecias
The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat primary cicatricial alopecias, and suggests a possible reclassification based on molecular pathways.
research What Surgeons Need to Know About Gender Confirmation Surgery When Providing Care for Transgender Individuals
Surgeons must understand the full care process for gender confirmation surgery to help transgender individuals effectively.
research The Role of Androgen and Androgen Receptor in Skin-Related Disorders
Targeting androgen receptors could be a promising way to treat skin disorders with fewer side effects.
research Thyroid Hormones Directly Alter Human Hair Follicle Functions: Anagen Prolongation and Stimulation of Both Hair Matrix Keratinocyte Proliferation and Hair Pigmentation
Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.
research Modulation of Hair Growth with Small Molecule Agonists of the Hedgehog Signaling Pathway
Applying a special compound can promote hair growth without harmful side effects.
research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: A Comprehensive Review
The document concludes that early diagnosis and treatment of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia are crucial for preventing serious health issues and improving patient outcomes.
research Inducible Deletion of Epidermal Dicer and Drosha Reveals Multiple Functions for miRNAs in Postnatal Skin
Drosha and Dicer are essential for hair follicle health and preventing DNA damage in skin cells.
research Neurosteroids, Neuroactive Steroids, and Symptoms of Affective Disorders
Certain steroids in the brain affect mood and symptoms of depression, and treatments targeting these steroids show promise for improving these symptoms.
research Activin Controls Skin Morphogenesis and Wound Repair Predominantly via Stromal Cells and in a Concentration-Dependent Manner via Keratinocytes
Activin helps skin growth and healing mainly through stromal cells and affects keratinocytes based on its amount.
research Current Evaluation of Amenorrhea
Amenorrhea is relatively rare and initial testing should check FSH, TSH, and prolactin levels.
research Stem Cells and the Circadian Clock
The circadian clock influences the behavior and regeneration of stem cells in the body.
research Reversing Wrinkled Skin and Hair Loss in Mice by Restoring Mitochondrial Function
Restoring mitochondrial function in mice reversed their skin wrinkling and hair loss.
research Human Hair Follicles Are an Extrarenal Source and a Nonhematopoietic Target of Erythropoietin
Human hair follicles produce and respond to erythropoietin, helping protect against stress.
research Ectopic Expression of the Nude Gene Induces Hyperproliferation and Defects in Differentiation: Implications for the Self-Renewal of Cutaneous Epithelia
The nude gene causes skin cell overgrowth and improper development, leading to hair and urinary issues.
research Targeted Skin Overexpression of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor in Mice Causes Epidermal Atrophy, Premature Skin Barrier Formation, Eye Abnormalities, and Alopecia
Overexpressing the mineralocorticoid receptor in mouse skin causes skin thinning, early skin barrier development, eye issues, and hair loss.
research Noggin Overexpression Inhibits Eyelid Opening by Altering Epidermal Apoptosis and Differentiation
