Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This study addresses limitations of minoxidil (MXD) in treating androgenetic alopecia by using stevioside (STV) as a solubilizing agent and microneedle (MN) material. STV enhanced MXD's solubility and skin absorption, leading to improved drug delivery and significant hair regrowth in animal models, demonstrating strong potential for AGA treatment ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This research integrated multi‐omics analysis of bone tissue from HLU and control mice revealed that mechanical unloading suppresses intrinsic apoptosis and augments glutamine (Gln) catabolism in osteoclast lineage cells. The findings highlight pivotal roles for SLC1A5‐mediated Gln metabolism and XIAP/Diablo axis‐mediated apoptosis suppression.

Dutch workers have thought along similar lines3. Accordingly blood levels were measured in male and

Life Factors and Melanoma: From the Macroscopic State to the Molecular Mechanism
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Melanoma, an aggressive skin cancer, arises from dynamic interactions between genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. This review explores how age, gender, obesity, diet, exercise, smoking, alcohol, UV exposure, circadian rhythms, and medications influence melanoma risk and progression.

Testosterone increases the virulence traits of uropathogenic Escherichia coli
Frontiers in MicrobiologyUropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the most common cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in humans. Testosterone negatively impacts UTIs by affecting the immune response, leading to higher susceptibility of chronic cystitis in individuals with ...

Salivary testosterone levels in preadolescent children
BMC Pediatrics, 2002 Background Saliva reflects the plasma free fraction of testosterone which is biologically active, and available for uptake by tissues. Testosterone concentration in saliva, though differing slightly from the concentration of unbound testosterone in serum,

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Psychological stress activates the sympathetic–adrenal axis, elevating norepinephrine (NE) and suppressing reproductive hormones, thereby impairing male reproduction. Excess NE overactivates and desensitizes β‐adrenergic receptors (β‐ARs), triggering Sertoli cell ferroptosis and disrupting spermatogenesis.
