April 2013 in “Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry” This study found that Monascus cursory extraction reduced baldness, prostate hyperplasia, and tumor incidence in animal models of androgen-related diseases, suggesting it may be a promising new therapeutic candidate.
10 citations
,
October 2020 in “Microscopy and Microanalysis” This study found that resveratrol significantly alleviated testicular damage in male rats caused by finasteride, which otherwise led to decreased testosterone levels and various histopathological alterations in the testes.
10 citations
,
November 2015 in “Experimental Dermatology” The study observed that mRAGE expression is prevalent in keratinocytes of the healthy human epidermis and may regulate inflammation and apoptosis to maintain skin homeostasis rather than responding to aging processes.
8 citations
,
