research The E6/E7 Oncogenes of Human Papillomavirus and Estradiol Regulate Hedgehog Signaling Activity in a Murine Model of Cervical Cancer
HPV genes and estradiol increase a cancer-related signaling pathway, which may be targeted for cervical cancer treatment.
research The Use of a Transscrotal Testosterone Delivery System in the Treatment of Patients with Weight Loss Related to Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection
The transscrotal testosterone patch normalizes hormone levels in men with AIDS and weight loss but does not improve weight, body mass, or quality of life.
research Identifying the Target Cells and Mechanisms of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection
Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.
research Evaluation of Anti-Zika Virus Activities of Broad-Spectrum Antivirals and NIH Clinical Collection Compounds Using a Cell-Based, High-Throughput Screen Assay
Researchers found several compounds that could potentially treat Zika virus.
research Immunoreactivity of the SARS-CoV-2 Entry Proteins ACE-2 and TMPRSS-2 in Murine Models of Hormonal Manipulation, Aging, and Cardiac Injury
Age affects how certain proteins involved in COVID-19 infection are expressed in mice, but sex hormones and heart injury do not.
research Worldwide Review of Restrictions Placed Upon People With HIV/AIDS
The review concluded that restrictions on people with HIV/AIDS often violated their rights without proven effectiveness in stopping the virus, highlighting education as the best control method.
research Androgens in SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Infections
Men, particularly those with hair loss, are more likely to get the virus, and those with prostate cancer may have milder symptoms. Testosterone's role in the disease is unclear, and the virus doesn't seem to harm male fertility. Women with PCOS might be at higher risk. More research is needed.
research Cutaneous Manifestations of the COVID-19 Pandemic in Schoolchildren and Adolescents
The article concludes that schoolchildren and adolescents experienced various skin issues during the COVID-19 pandemic, including acne from masks and other skin reactions from the virus and vaccines.
research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
research Dermatologic Changes in Experimental Model of Long COVID
Mice with a virus similar to COVID-19 had skin damage, but a special treatment helped repair it.
research Dermatological Manifestations of COVID-19 and Its Therapies: A Review
COVID-19 can cause skin symptoms that might help spot the virus early, and treatments for it can also affect the skin.
research Cepharanthine: A Review of the Antiviral Potential of a Japanese-Approved Alopecia Drug in COVID-19
Cepharanthine, a Japanese hair loss drug, shows promise as a COVID-19 treatment but needs more testing.
research Direct Cellular Reprogramming Enables Development of Viral T Antigen-Driven Merkel Cell Carcinoma in Mice
Scientists made a mouse model of a serious skin cancer by changing skin cells with a virus and a specific gene, which is similar to the disease in humans.
research Androgen Deprivation Therapy May Be a More Effective COVID-19 Prophylactic Than Therapeutic Strategy
Androgen deprivation therapy might be better for preventing COVID-19 than treating it.
research Editorial: Host-Pathogen Interactions During Arboviral Infections
Understanding how our bodies interact with mosquito-borne viruses is crucial because there are few treatments and vaccines.
research Molecular Mechanisms of Viral Oncogenesis in Humans
Some viruses can cause cancer by changing cell processes and avoiding the immune system; vaccines and targeted treatments help reduce these cancers.
research Racial Variations in COVID-19 Deaths May Be Due to Androgen Receptor Genetic Variants Associated with Prostate Cancer and Androgenetic Alopecia. Are Anti-Androgens a Potential Treatment for COVID-19?
Genetic differences may affect COVID-19 deaths; anti-androgens could be potential treatment.
research COVID-19 and Endocrine and Metabolic Diseases: An Updated Statement from the European Society of Endocrinology
People with diabetes or obesity should manage their conditions carefully as they have a higher risk of severe COVID-19.
research Is COVID-19 a Risk Factor for Progression of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia and Exacerbation of Its Related Symptoms?: A Systematic Review
COVID-19 might worsen symptoms and progression of benign prostatic hyperplasia, possibly due to inflammation and metabolic disturbances in the prostate gland. More research is needed to confirm this.
research COVID-19, Androgens, and Androgenic Alopecia
COVID-19 may worsen with androgens; anti-androgen drugs could help.
research Hair Follicle Targeting with Nanoparticles
Nanoparticles can be used to deliver drugs to hair follicles, potentially improving treatments for conditions like acne and alopecia, and could also be used for vaccine delivery and gene therapy.
research From Bedside to Bench: Regulation of Host Factors in SARS-CoV-2 Infection
The conclusion is that certain genetic factors and blood types may affect COVID-19 severity, but changes in ACE2 and TMPRSS2 genes are not clearly linked to it.
research Reply to Letter to the Editor: A Response to 'Male Balding Is a Major Risk Factor for Severe COVID-19'
Balding might help identify men at higher risk for severe COVID-19, but more research is needed.
research Impact of Androgen Status and Anti-Androgen Therapy on the Course of COVID-19 in Men
Men with higher androgen levels may have severe COVID-19 symptoms, but those on antiandrogen therapy are less likely to contract the virus and have milder symptoms. Anti-androgen drugs could potentially treat COVID-19, but more research is needed.
research Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS)
The document concludes that rapid identification, isolation, and strict infection control are crucial to manage SARS outbreaks.
research The Impact of SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 on Male Reproduction and Men's Health
