research Traditional Uses, Phytochemistry, Pharmacology, Toxicity and Clinical Application of Traditional Chinese Medicine Cynoglossum Amabile: A Review
Cynoglossum amabile has medicinal potential but poses safety concerns due to liver toxicity.
research A New Label-Free Screen for Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Using LC-MS
Researchers developed a new method to find substances in herbs that can block a specific enzyme linked to hair loss.
research Identification of Telogen Markers Underscores That Telogen Is Far from a Quiescent Hair Cycle Phase
Telogen is an active phase with important biological processes, not a resting phase.
research Implications of Neuroimaging for the Treatment of Epilepsy
Neuroimaging suggests that treatments targeting brain steroids could help control epilepsy, especially types linked to the menstrual cycle.
research Different Levels of 5α-Reductase Type I and II, Aromatase, and Androgen Receptor in Hair Follicles of Women and Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
People with hair loss have more androgen receptors and enzymes in certain follicles, with men and women showing different patterns.
research Treating Psychogenic Nonepileptic Seizures: Easier Said Than Done
Progesterone treatment improved seizures in a woman with menstrual cycle-related epilepsy, but a wrong medication worsened her condition.
research Exploring the Efficacy of Testosterone Undecanoate in Male Children with 5α-Reductase Deficiency
Testosterone undecanoate safely and effectively increased penis size in male children with 5-alpha-reductase deficiency.
research Alleviation of Mechanical Allodynia by 14,15-Epoxyeicosatrienoic Acid in a Central Poststroke Pain Model: Possible Role of Allopregnanolone and Delta-Subunit-Containing Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid A Receptors
14,15-EET may help reduce poststroke pain by affecting certain brain proteins.
research Parkinson's Disease and Skin Disorders: Non-Iatrogenic and Iatrogenic Connections
Parkinson's disease is linked to skin disorders and skin cells help in studying the disease.
research Ameliorative Effects of Rutin Against Metabolic, Biochemical, and Hormonal Disturbances in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Rats
Rutin may help treat symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in rats.
research Effect of Perfluorooctanesulfonate Exposure on Steroid Hormone Levels and Steroidogenic Enzyme Activities in Juvenile Silurana Tropicalis
PFOS exposure disrupts hormone levels and enzyme activities in juvenile frogs, affecting males and females differently.
research Iatrogenic Cushing Syndrome and Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency Due to an Interaction Between Fluticasone and Ritonavir
A woman developed Cushing syndrome and adrenal insufficiency from using fluticasone and ritonavir together.
research Remarks on the Hormonal Background of the Male Equivalent of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Men might have a version of the female disease, polycystic ovarian syndrome, shown by changes in hormone levels and early baldness, but more research is needed to fully understand it.
research A Quantitative Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry Analysis of Steroids from Human Scalp Hair
The method can measure multiple steroids in human hair to study long-term steroid metabolism, especially in newborns and children.
research Distinctive Features of Steroid Hormone Metabolism in Female Patients with Androgenic Alopecia
Women with hair thinning have disrupted steroid hormone levels, but this doesn't often show as other health issues. More research is needed on hormone balance in this condition.
research Vitamin D Receptor: New Assignments for an Already Busy Receptor
The vitamin D receptor is involved in multiple body functions beyond calcium regulation, including immune response and rapid reactions not related to gene activity.
research Beyond Testosterone Cypionate: Evidence Behind the Use of Nandrolone in Male Health and Wellness
Nandrolone might increase muscle mass with fewer side effects than testosterone but could cause erectile dysfunction and needs more research.
research Activity of Type 1 5α-Reductase Is Greater in the Follicular Infrainfundibulum Compared with the Epidermis
The enzyme type 1 5α-reductase is more active in the hair follicle's lower part than in the skin's outer layer.
research The Genetics of Autism and Steroid-Related Traits in Prenatal and Postnatal Life
Autism's genetics are linked with early age of puberty and less hair loss, but not with hormone levels or polycystic ovary syndrome.
