Steroid sulfatase is important for activating hormones that affect memory, brain function, and certain diseases, and could be a target for treating hormone-related disorders.
research 5α-Reductase Activity in the Prostate
Blocking the enzyme 5α-reductase can shrink the prostate and help treat enlarged prostate issues.
research The Role of Cytochrome P-450 in Dermatology
Cytochrome P-450 enzymes in the skin help break down various substances and could be targeted to treat skin conditions.
research Steroid Sulfatase: Molecular Biology, Regulation, and Inhibition
The enzyme steroid sulfatase is linked to breast cancer and other conditions, and inhibitors are being developed for treatment.
research The Rho GTPase Exchange Factor Vav2 Promotes Extensive Age-Dependent Rewiring of the Hair Follicle Stem Cell Transcriptome
Vav2 changes how hair follicle stem cells' genes work as they age, which might improve regeneration but also raise cancer risk.
research Two-Ligand Priming Mechanism for Potentiated Phosphoinositide Synthesis Is an Evolutionarily Conserved Feature of Sec14-Like Phosphatidylinositol and Phosphatidylcholine Exchange Proteins
A protein in plants needs to bind two lipids to help with root hair growth, and this process is similar across different plant species.
research Inhibitors of 5α-Reductase in the Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
5α-reductase inhibitors and alpha-1 adrenergic antagonists together effectively treat benign prostatic hyperplasia, with long-term benefits.

The document concluded that stem cells are crucial for skin repair, regeneration, and may help in developing advanced skin substitutes.
research Evidence-Based Guideline for the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Women and Men
Use minoxidil for hair loss; finasteride and dutasteride for men, dutasteride for women.
research Steroid Plant Hormones: Effects Outside the Plant Kingdom
Plant steroid hormones show growth, health, and medicinal benefits in various organisms, including potential for treating diseases.
research Perspectives of Alopecia Behind the Regulation of Foxn1 Gene Exposes the Human Nude Phenotype
The gene Foxn1 is important for hair growth, and understanding it may lead to new alopecia treatments.
research The Complexity of the Ovine and Caprine Keratin-Associated Protein Genes
Sheep and goat hair fibers are complex due to keratin-associated proteins, which are important for fiber properties and growth.
research Hormones and the Pilosebaceous Unit
Hormones significantly affect hair and oil gland function in the skin, and more research is needed on skin-related hormone disorders.
research Hedychium Spicatum: A Systematic Review on Traditional Uses, Phytochemistry, Pharmacology, and Future Prospects
