research Improving Selective Androgen Receptor Modulator Discovery and Preclinical Evaluation
We need better ways to test and understand SARMs to make safer and more effective treatments.
research A Thallium-Based Screening Procedure to Identify Molecules That Modulate the Activity of Ca2+-Activated Monovalent Cation-Selective Channels
The conclusion is that a new test was created to find substances that affect specific ion channels, and it works well for drug discovery.
research Animal Models for Wound Healing
Animal experiments help understand and test treatments for healing wounds and reducing scars.
research A Practical Approach to Feline Symmetrical Alopecia
The conclusion is to thoroughly test for causes of cat hair loss and treat accordingly, considering medication only after serious conditions are ruled out.
research The Mexican Hairless Dog as a Model for Assessing the Comedolytic and Morphogenic Activity of Retinoids
Mexican hairless dogs can help test new skin treatments.
research In Vitro Hair Follicle Growth Model for Drug Testing
Researchers developed a new method to test hair growth drugs and found that adult cells are best for hair growth, but the method needs improvement as it didn't create mature hair follicles.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for Screening Steroid 5-Alpha Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Expression of Type 1 5α-Reductase and Metabolism of Testosterone in Reconstructed Human Epidermis: A New Model for Screening Skin-Targeted Androgen Modulators
The study created a new method to test drugs that affect hormone processing in skin.
research Determination of EtG in Body Hair Samples for Monitoring Teetotalism: A Suitable Alternative to Scalp Hair?
Body hair can be used to test for alcohol intake, especially in men.
research Sensitive Quantitative In Vivo Assay for Evaluating the Effects of Biomolecules on Hair Growth and Coloring Using Direct Microinjections into Mouse Whisker Follicles
The new "whisker follicle microinjection assay" can test how different biomolecules affect hair growth and color.
research Pre-Clinical In-Vitro Assays for High Throughput Screening of Drug Candidates for Protection and Restoration of Immune Privilege in Alopecia Areata
The research developed methods to test drugs that could protect and restore hair follicle protection in a hair loss condition.
research Interpretation of Hair Ethyl Glucuronide Inter-Individual Factors from Large Population Dataset
Older age increases positive hair alcohol test results, and chest hair is a good alternative for testing; season affects results, with higher levels in winter.
research Study Design for the Stanford Dermatology Personal Genomics Project
The project aimed to understand how genetic test results affect patients' actions and feelings in dermatology.
research Clinical Approaches to PCOS: A Survey of the NASPAG Membership
Doctors vary in how they initially test for PCOS, but most agree on using oral contraceptives and lifestyle changes as first treatments.
research Molecular Mapping of Lymph Node Metastases by Real-Time Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction in Two Melanoma Patients
The conclusion is that a certain test might help find cancer spread in lymph nodes for melanoma patients, but more research is needed due to false positives.
research Hair Growth In Vitro From Histocultured Skin
The new system can grow hair in the lab and test hair growth treatments.
