research Androgen Receptor Activation Integrates Complex Transcriptional Effects in Osteoblasts, Involving the Growth Factors TGF-β and IGF-I, and Transcription Factor C/EBPδ
DHT affects bone growth by altering gene activity in osteoblasts, potentially complicating steroid use.
research TSPO Ligand Etifoxine Attenuates LPS-Induced Cognitive Dysfunction in Mice
Etifoxine, an anxiety drug, can lessen brain inflammation and cognitive issues in mice, partly by increasing production of protective brain steroids.
research High-Resolution Structures of Mutants Affecting Access to the Ligand-Binding Cavity of Human Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D Synthase
Mutations in the enzyme don't significantly change how it binds to its specific substances.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Nutraceuticals Known to Promote Hair Growth Do Not Interfere With the Inhibitory Action of Tamoxifen in MCF7, T47D and BT483 Breast Cancer Cell Lines
Nutraceuticals that promote hair growth do not reduce tamoxifen's effectiveness in breast cancer treatment.
research Understanding the Role of Glycogen Metabolism in Human Hair Follicle Biology
Glycogen metabolism is important for energy and processes in human hair follicles, and hair follicles may produce glucose from lactate.
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 Melatonin Receptors and Their Role in Human Diseases

research Androgens Induce Sebaceous Differentiation in Sebocyte Cells Expressing a Stable Functional Androgen Receptor
Androgens cause oil-producing skin cells with androgen receptors to mature and produce more oil.
research In Ovo Injection of CHIR-99021 Promotes Feather Follicle Development via Modulating the Wnt Signaling Pathway and Transcriptome in Goose Embryos
Injecting CHIR-99021 into goose embryos improves feather growth by changing gene activity and energy processes.
research Sex Differences in Steroid Levels and Steroidogenesis in the Nervous System: Physiopathological Role
Men and women have different levels and production of brain steroids, which may affect their risk for certain brain disorders.
research Overexpression of the 18 kDa Translocator Protein (TSPO) in the Hippocampal Dentate Gyrus Produced Anxiolytic and Antidepressant-Like Behavioral Effects
Increasing TSPO in the brain reduces anxiety and depression.
research Neurosteroid-Sensitive δ-GABAA Receptors: A Role in Epileptogenesis?
