research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Biology of the Hair Follicle: The Basics
The document concludes that understanding hair follicle biology can lead to better hair loss treatments.
research EEMCO Guidance for the Assessment of Hair Shedding and Alopecia
The document explains hair growth and shedding, factors affecting it, and methods to evaluate hair loss, emphasizing the importance of skin biopsy for diagnosis.
research Gender Aspects in Skin Diseases
Men are more likely to get infectious skin diseases, while women are more prone to autoimmune and pigment-related skin conditions, influenced by biological and environmental factors.
research Endocrine-Skin Interactions
Hormone imbalances can cause specific skin changes, which may help in early detection of endocrine disorders.
research Neuroendocrine Determinants of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Certain brain hormones and chemicals are linked to the development of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
research Exposure of Xenopus Laevis Tadpoles to Finasteride, an Inhibitor of 5-Alpha Reductase Activity, Impairs Spermatogenesis and Alters Hypophyseal Feedback Mechanisms
Finasteride exposure harms tadpole reproduction and hormone balance.
research Novel Insights Into the Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance and Hypersensitivity Syndromes
Genetic defects in the glucocorticoid receptor gene can cause conditions with abnormal sensitivity to stress hormones, and other factors may also affect this sensitivity.
research Acne: Diet and Acnegenesis
Eating dairy and high glycemic foods may increase the risk of acne.
research Male Pattern Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgens contribute to common male hair loss; more research needed for hair growth medication.
research Expansion of Specialized Epidermis Induced by Hormonal State and Mechanical Strain
Hormones and stretching both needed for nipple area skin growth in mice.
research Clinical Analysis of 1,360 Patients Presenting with Male Pattern Hair Loss
Male pattern hair loss is diagnosed and treated earlier and is milder, possibly due to early puberty.
research Deep Hair Phenomics: Implications in Endocrinology, Development, and Aging
A new tool can analyze hair to detect changes due to hormones, genetics, and aging.
research Endocrinology
The document concludes that inflammation markers can be used in diabetes, vitamin D3 affects immune pathways, hyperthyroidism changes hormone levels, androgen levels help diagnose Adrenocortical Carcinoma, erectile dysfunction is linked to diabetes, hypogonadism is common in HIV-infected males, and hormones can be biomarkers for various conditions.
research Common Causes of Hair Loss
Hair loss can be caused by hormones, illness, autoimmune disorders, or vitamin deficiencies, and treatments vary depending on the type.
research Pattern Formation in Biological Systems: Integumentary Structures and Morphogenesis
The conclusion is that understanding how patterns form in biology is crucial for advancing research and medical science.
research 17α-Acetoxy-6-Bromo-16β-Methylpregna-4,6-Diene-3,20-Dione: A New Steroidal Derivative with High Antiandrogenic Activity
A new compound with strong antiandrogenic effects was found, potentially useful for treating conditions like acne and prostate cancer.
research Androgenic Activity in Autism
Some autistic children may have higher levels of male hormones, which could be linked to aggression.
research Physiology of Testicular Function
The testes produce sperm and hormones essential for male development.
research Endocrine Functions of the Testes
The testes produce important hormones like testosterone and others that play key roles in male body functions.
research Early Lead Exposure and Pubertal Development in a Mexico City Population
Higher early lead exposure is linked to delayed puberty in girls.
research Acne: Transient Arrest in the Homeostatic Host–Microbiota Dialogue?
Acne is a temporary skin imbalance during puberty that often resolves on its own.
research Androgens’ Effects Across the Lifespan in Men and Animal Models
Androgens, male hormones, affect physical and mental functions, with a decrease leading to health issues like muscle loss, bone disease, and depression, and more research is needed on long-term effects and treatments.
research Dermal Fibroblasts Enhance Growth Factors Production by Androgens and Modulate Keratinocyte Proliferation and Differentiation
Androgens increase growth factors in skin cells, which may lead to acne.
research Gynecologic and Andrologic Dermatology and the Metabolic Syndrome
Skin diseases linked to insulin resistance should be managed to prevent diabetes and reduce heart disease risk.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Overview
AGA is a genetic, hormonal hair loss treated with finasteride, minoxidil, and supplements, but new compounds are being developed.
research Pathogenesis of Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgenetic alopecia, or hair loss, is caused by a mix of genetics, hormones, and environment, where testosterone affects hair growth and causes hair to become smaller and grow for a shorter time.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: A Chronic or Pubertal Onset Disease Retarded by Blood Donation
Androgenetic alopecia is a long-term, immune-related disorder that starts during puberty due to androgen secretion, and it might be improved with iron tablets, platelet transfusion, and anti-inflammation therapy.
research Intracrine Androgen Biosynthesis, Metabolism, and Action Revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
