990-1000 / 1000+ results research The Treatment of Hyperandrogenism with Oral Contraceptives
This article discusses the use of oral contraceptives for treating hyperandrogenism in women, reporting improvement in most patients, especially in reducing new hair growth, but presents no new clinical findings.
research A missing piece: the spiny mouse and the puzzle of menstruating species
This article discusses the discovery of the first known menstruating rodent, the spiny mouse, and proposes that a significant increase in progesterone during the luteal phase is a unique feature of menstruating species, but reports no new experimental results.
research Effects of sex steroid hormones and their metabolites on neuronal injury caused by oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation in organotypic hippocampal slice cultures
In this study using rat hippocampal cultures, progesterone and testosterone showed neuroprotective effects against oxygen-glucose deprivation-induced neuronal cell death, while metabolism of these hormones in the brain may affect their protective actions.
research Effect of Neurosteroid Withdrawal on Spontaneous Recurrent Seizures in a Rat Model of Catamenial Epilepsy
This study developed a rat model for catamenial epilepsy, suggesting that neurosteroid withdrawal may increase seizure frequency and help test new treatments.
research Pharmacological basis for clinical use of antiandrogens
This article reviews the discovery and various physiological effects of cyproterone acetate, reporting its established indications for several androgen-driven conditions but providing no new clinical data.
research Male hormonal contraception: looking back and moving forward
This review discusses the physiological basis, history, and current development of male hormonal contraception, highlighting its potential risks and benefits, but reports no new research findings.
research Androgen responsive genes as they affect hair growth.
In this study, finasteride treatment in men with androgenetic alopecia reduced the expression of caspases in hair follicles to levels similar to those in men with normal scalps.
research Stem Cells behind the Barrier
This review discusses the mechanisms governing epidermal stem and progenitor cell differentiation, emphasizing the balance necessary for maintaining skin barrier function, and reports no new experimental findings.
research Contraception and the dermatologist
This review discusses the role of contraceptives in dermatology, particularly for acne treatment and managing patients on teratogens, but reports no new clinical results.
