Rare ULBP3 gene changes may raise the risk of Alopecia areata, a certain FAS gene deletion could cause a dysfunctional protein in an immune disorder, and having one copy of a specific genetic deletion is okay, but two copies cause sickle cell disease.

Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.

Environmental factors at different levels control hair stem cell activity, which could lead to new hair growth and alopecia treatments.

Compartmentalized organization might be crucial for stem cells to effectively respond to growth or injury.

Stem cell offspring help control their parent stem cells, affecting tissue health, healing, and cancer.

Neuronatin is found in specific cells within rat testis, hair follicles, tongue, and pancreas, suggesting it has various roles in tissue development and function.

Low oxygen areas help maintain and protect blood stem cells by using a simple sugar breakdown process for energy and managing their activity levels.

COVID-19 may affect male fertility and women might have better outcomes due to hormonal and immune differences.

New treatments for hair loss, fertility, and wound healing are being explored.

Flutamide caused damage to male rat reproductive organs and may affect fertility.

Activin A and follistatin control when hair cells develop in mouse ears.

Activin A and follistatin control when ear hair cells form in mice.

Two-photon microscopy helps observe hair follicle stem cell behaviors in mice.

SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, can affect all endocrine organs and systems, altering their function and potentially leading to disorders. Factors like diabetes and obesity increase infection risk and severity. Understanding these effects is key for effective treatment.

Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L-PGDS) is a protein that plays many roles in the body, including sleep regulation, pain management, food intake, and protection against harmful substances. It also affects fat metabolism, glucose intolerance, cell maturation, and is involved in various diseases like diabetes, cancer, and arthritis. It can influence sex organ development and embryonic cell differentiation, and its levels can be used as a diagnostic marker for certain conditions.

Activin A promotes ear hair cell development, while follistatin delays it.

Women's ovarian hormones and adrenal androgens change throughout life, affecting hair loss and health.

The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of male and female gonadal disorders is crucial for effective treatment and better patient outcomes.

The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.

Testosterone replacement therapy can prevent men from fathering children and should not be used by those wanting to stay fertile.

Testosterone may have a dual role in COVID-19, potentially worsening outcomes in men, and testosterone therapy could help some patients, but more research is needed.

Bald men may have a lower risk of testicular cancer.

Environmental factors and exposure to toxins may contribute to male infertility by affecting sperm and hormone function.

The document explains how male reproductive hormones work and affect the body.

Antioxidants may help improve mitochondrial health and could be used to treat diseases related to cell damage.

The research found that PCOS has common genetic factors regardless of how it is diagnosed and is linked to metabolic and reproductive issues.

The document explains how the male reproductive system works, its role in making testosterone, and how conditions like obesity can disrupt it, leading to low testosterone and fertility issues.

The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.

Betacoronaviruses, like COVID-19, may cause hormone system dysfunction and affect disease susceptibility and severity.

Lack or blocking of SRD5a, a key component in hormone creation, can lead to conditions like pseudohermaphrodism and affect hair growth, bone mass, muscle strength, and reproductive health. More research is needed on its regulation from fertilization to adulthood.
