,
June 2016 in “Oral Surgery Oral Medicine Oral Pathology and Oral Radiology” This study reports the first known case of oral lichen planus preceding lichen planopilaris in a patient, highlighting a possible sequential relationship between the conditions.
52 citations
,
April 2002 in “Brain Research” This study found that in rats, finasteride significantly reduced allopregnanolone in the cortex and increased both the rise and duration of dopamine levels in the prefrontal cortex in response to stress and anxiogenic stimuli.
1 citations
,
October 2005 in “Experimental and Clinical Endocrinology & Diabetes” This study found that in pregnant rats, the suppression of ACTH responses to IL-1β is linked to the action of endogenous opioids and AP, with AP potentially inducing opioid inhibition through increased pENK-A expression.
This study found that scalp cooling effectively prevented visible hair loss in over half of patients undergoing highly alopecia-inducing chemotherapy, yet cognitive appraisal of the treatment had a more significant impact on quality of life than the actual degree of hair retention.
48 citations
,
September 2007 in “European Journal of Neuroscience” This study found that ethanol's ability to block long-term potentiation in rat hippocampal slices is influenced by neurosteroids that enhance GABA A receptor activity.
48 citations
,
February 1999 in “PubMed” This study found that the anticonvulsant effects of progesterone against PTZ-induced seizures in mice require conversion to allopregnanolone, as shown by the reversal of these effects with a 5alpha-reductase inhibitor.
1 citations
,
July 2026 in “Asian Journal of Agriculture” In this study conducted under controlled laboratory conditions, warm water and shallot extract were found to significantly speed up the germination of lettuce and napa cabbage seeds compared to untreated seeds, though further testing is needed in nursery or field settings.
3 citations
,
May 2011 in “Medical Hypotheses” This article proposes that transnasal evaporative cooling could advance understanding of various physiological phenomena, but reports no new clinical results; potential research directions are suggested for this concept.
February 2023 in “Journal of medical primatology” In this study, pair housing of rhesus macaques after intrafacility transfer reduced some undesirable behaviors and diarrhea compared to single housing, although no cortisol level differences were observed.
180 citations
,
June 2004 in “Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics” This study found that progesterone's antiseizure effects in mice occurred primarily through conversion to allopregnanolone, rather than through the progesterone receptor, as evidenced by results in PR knockout mice.
47 citations
,
September 1995 in “British Journal of Dermatology” This review discusses the complication of vitiligo in patients undergoing diphencyprone sensitization therapy for alopecia universalis and reports no new clinical findings.
January 2024 in “International journal of molecular sciences” This study found that boosting the synthesis of neural-derived 17β-estradiol effectively counteracted the impairment of hippocampal long-term potentiation caused by amyloid beta 1-42 in rat hippocampal slices, with the effect seemingly linked to glutamate NMDAR signaling.

October 2011 in “Psychoneuroendocrinology” Finasteride may help improve certain brain function issues linked to dopamine.
January 2014 in “University of the Arts London Research Online (University of the Arts London)” Certain ingredients can help protect hair color.
July 2008 in “VTechWorks (Virginia Tech)” This study suggests that PrPC plays a role in the differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells during neurogenesis, impacting neural progenitor cell development.
10 citations
,
April 2018 in “Facial Plastic Surgery” This article reviews scalp advancement and forehead shortening when combined with a brow lift, focusing on reducing temporal recession, but reports no new clinical results.
October 1995 in “Pediatric Research” 123 citations
,
June 2006 in “Journal of Neurobiology” This study reports that progesterone metabolism to DHP and THP is necessary for its neuroprotective effect against kainic acid excitotoxicity in ovariectomized rats, unlike the synthetic progestin MPA.
2 citations
,
January 2020 The document describes a method for preparing hair for microscopy by embedding it in plastic, cutting it, and storing it cold before imaging.
January 2024 in “Wiadomości Lekarskie” In this study, researchers developed a novel computational framework using deep reinforcement learning to identify strategies for cellular reprogramming in gene regulatory networks, showing its effectiveness in a model of immune response against infection.
47 citations
,
December 2016 in “Scientific Reports” This study found that women with PMS were more likely to use suppression rather than reappraisal for emotion regulation, and increased suppression was linked to higher skin conductance levels in these women.
This preclinical study found that finasteride withdrawal in rats caused inflammation in the gut and hypothalamus, while allopregnanolone treatment partially reduced these effects, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits for post-finasteride syndrome.
52 citations
,
May 2011 in “Journal of Neuroendocrinology” This study found that palmitoylethanolamide may stimulate allopregnanolone synthesis and reduce oxidative stress in astrocytes through PPAR-α activation, suggesting a neuroprotective role.
