240-270 / 1000+ results research Androstanediolglucuronide: A Parameter for Peripheral Androgen Activity Before and During Therapy with Cyproterone Acetate
3α-AdiolG is a good marker for androgen activity in women with excessive hair growth and decreases with anti-androgen treatment.
research Markers of Peripheral Androgen Action In Vivo and In Vitro
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is crucial for conditions like male-pattern baldness and acne, and measuring a byproduct, androstanediol glucuronide, is a better way to assess DHT's effects than DHT blood levels.
research Human Hair Follicles Operate a Functional Peripheral Equivalent of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Somatotropic Axis Ex Vivo
Human scalp hair follicles can produce hormones and have a system similar to a brain-body communication network.
research The Effect of Changes in Temperature on Peripheral Blood Flow in Systemic Sclerosis
Warming hands improves blood flow in people with systemic sclerosis.
research Segmental Vitiligo with Confetti-Like Peripheral Depigmentation
Segmental vitiligo affects hair follicle melanocytes, causing small, uniform depigmented spots.
research Treatment of Hirsutism: Comparisons Between Different Antiandrogens with Central and Peripheral Effects
Finasteride, CPA, and flutamide are all equally effective in reducing excessive hair growth in women.
research Human Type 3 5α-Reductase Is Expressed in Peripheral Tissues at Higher Levels Than Types 1 and 2 and Its Activity Is Potently Inhibited by Finasteride and Dutasteride
Type 3 5α-reductase is more common and finasteride and dutasteride strongly inhibit it.
research Diurnal Preference Predicts Phase Differences in Expression of Human Peripheral Circadian Clock Genes
An individual's morning or evening preference can predict changes in their body clock gene expression.
research Estimation Methods for Human Circadian Phase Using Peripheral Tissues
New method uses hair follicle cells to estimate human body clock phase, potentially improving sleep disorder diagnosis.
research Minoxidil: Hemodynamic and Clinical Experiences with a New Peripheral Vasodilator
Minoxidil helps control blood pressure but has side-effects, so it's not for everyone.
research Effects of Bright Light Exposure During Daytime on Peripheral Clock Gene Expression in Humans
Bright light during the day doesn't change most human clock genes but may slightly increase Rev-erb-ß.
research To Identify the Expression of Intracellular Toll-Like Receptors in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells of Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata patients have higher levels of certain immune receptors, suggesting new treatment possibilities.
research Implementing Outpatient Screening of Adult Patients at High Risk for Peripheral Artery Disease
research DC-HIL+ Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells Are Elevated in the Peripheral Blood and Lesional Skin of Cutaneous Lupus Patients
Cutaneous lupus patients have higher levels of certain immune cells in their blood and skin.
research Detection of Subtypes of T Helper Cells and Their Cytokines in Peripheral Blood of Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Their Clinical Significances
Higher levels of certain immune cells and proteins are linked to more severe lupus symptoms.
research Painful, Unexplained Peripheral Neuropathy? Think Thallium Toxicity
If someone has unexplained nerve pain and hair loss, doctors should check for thallium poisoning.
research Significance of HLA-DR+ T Cells and Natural Killer Cells in the Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes of Alopecia Areata
Severe alopecia areata involves higher levels of certain immune cells, which can be normalized with betamethasone.
research Cutting Edge: Memory Regulatory T Cells Require IL-7 and Not IL-2 for Their Maintenance in Peripheral Tissues
Memory regulatory T cells need IL-7, not IL-2, to stay in peripheral tissues.
research Histopathological Findings and Proliferative Activity of Canine Sebaceous Gland Tumors with a Predominant Reserve Cell Population
High proliferative activity and peripheral invasion indicate malignancy in canine sebaceous gland tumors; the term 'epithelioma' should be updated for clarity.
research Emerging Interactions Between Skin Stem Cells and Their Niches
Skin stem cells interacting with their environment is crucial for maintaining and regenerating skin and hair, and understanding this can help develop new treatments for skin and hair disorders.

High levels of 3 alpha-diol glucuronide in the blood are a marker of increased androgen action in women with excessive hair growth of unknown cause.
research Noninvasive Method for Assessing the Human Circadian Clock Using Hair Follicle Cells
Scientists found a new, less invasive way to study body clocks using hair cells, which shows shift workers' body clocks don't match their lifestyles.
research Antiretroviral Nucleoside and Nucleotide Analogues and Mitochondria
