Using focused ultrasound on the brain can help epilepsy medicine work better in rats.
research Bioengineered Polyester Nanoparticles for the Synergistic Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia via the Suppression of 5α-Reductase and Knockdown of Androgen Receptor
Bioengineered nanoparticles can effectively treat hair loss by targeting specific enzymes and receptors.
research RANK as a Therapeutic Target in Cancer
RANK is a key target in breast cancer treatment due to its role in tumor growth and bone metastasis.
research Hepatic Adenoma in an Adolescent With Elevated Androgen Levels
A teenage girl with high androgen levels and PCOS developed a rare liver tumor, suggesting a possible link between high androgens and the tumor's growth.
research A Rare Case of an Androgen-Producing Stromal Luteoma of the Ovary in a Postmenopausal Woman, Diagnosed by Selective Venous Blood Sampling
Doctors used a special blood sampling technique to diagnose a woman's rare ovarian tumor that was producing male hormones.
research Recent Advances in Genome-Editing Technology with CRISPR/Cas9 Variants and Stimuli-Responsive Targeting Approaches within Tumor Cells: A Future Perspective of Cancer Management
New CRISPR/Cas9 variants and nanotechnology-based delivery methods are improving cancer treatment, but choosing the best variant and overcoming certain limitations remain challenges.
research Patched-Associated Tumors: Modifier Genes and Pathogenesis
The document concludes that the development of certain tumors is influenced by genetic background and that a specific gene modification can lead to tumor regression and reduced growth.
research Melatonin Receptors and Their Role in Human Diseases
Melatonin receptors, found in many body parts, can help treat various diseases like depression and diabetes due to their effects on inflammation, tumor progression, sleep disorders, and body mass regulation.
research Table 1
Androgen suppression therapy (AST) doesn't significantly lower bladder cancer risk, but using finasteride, a type of AST, might reduce it. AST decreases recurrence-free survival but doesn't affect overall survival or progression-free survival. More research is needed to understand AST's benefits.
research Table 2
Androgen suppression therapy (AST) doesn't significantly lower bladder cancer risk, but using finasteride, a type of AST, might decrease the risk. AST also lessens the chance of cancer coming back but doesn't really affect survival rates. More research is needed to understand AST's benefits for different bladder cancers.
research Hair Loss in Women: Comprehensive Overview and Treatment Options
Effective hair loss treatment in women requires correct diagnosis and can include medications like minoxidil, antiandrogens, and treatments for underlying conditions like PCOS.
research Tracing the Cellular Origin of Cancer
Understanding where cancer cells come from helps create better prevention and treatment methods.
research Molecular Targeted Therapies for Cancer: Sorafenib Monotherapy and Its Combination with Other Therapies
Sorafenib helps some advanced cancers alone or with other treatments, but not all, and research continues to improve its use.
research KRT17 Promotes Endometrial Cancer Cell Migration and Angiogenesis by Regulating HIF-1α/VEGF Pathway
KRT17 may be a new target for endometrial cancer treatment because it helps cancer cells move and form new blood vessels.
research Melatonin
Melatonin may help with sleep issues, depression, and cancer, but more research is needed.
research The Evaluation and Management of Hirsutism
Most women with excess hair growth have an underlying hormonal issue, often treated with medication and hair removal methods.
research The IL-23/IL-17 Pathway in Inflammatory Skin Diseases: From Bench to Bedside
Targeting the IL-23/IL-17 pathway effectively treats several inflammatory skin diseases.
research Human αβ and γδ T Cells in Skin Immunity and Disease
Certain types of T cells are essential for healthy skin and play a role in skin diseases, but more research is needed to improve treatments.
research Ovarian Leukocyte Distribution and Cytokine/Chemokine mRNA Expression in Follicular Fluid Cells in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
