research Modulation of Chemotherapy-Induced Human Hair Follicle Damage by 17-β Estradiol and Prednisolone: Potential Stimulators of Normal Hair Regrowth by “Dystrophic Catagen” Promotion?
17-β estradiol and prednisolone may speed up hair regrowth after chemotherapy.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors, Chemical and Clinical Models
Researchers developed a model to predict how well certain compounds can block an enzyme related to hair loss and prostate issues, suggesting a 50 mg dose of finasteride might be effective based on lab and body data.
research A stain for plucked anagen hairs
A new staining method helps tell growing from resting hairs to diagnose hair loss.
research Metabolite screening of aromatic amine hair dyes usingin vitrohepatic models
The tested hair dye ingredients do not form harmful oxidized metabolites in the liver.

Two plywood factory workers developed contact dermatitis from phenol-formaldehyde resin, a known allergen.
research A Connection between the Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore, Autophagy, and Cerebral Amyloidogenesis
Dutasteride may help reduce brain plaque linked to Alzheimer's by affecting cell energy structures and waste removal.
research Alterations of plasma antioxidants and mitochondrial DNA mutation in hair follicles of smokers
Smoking reduces antioxidants and causes DNA damage in hair follicles.
research Recent Advances in Drug Design and Drug Discovery for Androgen- Dependent Diseases
New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.
research A functional polymorphism in interleukin-1α (IL1A) gene is associated with risk of alopecia areata in Chinese populations
A certain genetic variation in the IL1A gene may lower the risk of a hair loss condition in Chinese people.
research In vitro metabolism of progesterone by canine hair follicle cells
Canine hair follicle cells convert progesterone into various metabolites, mainly cortisol.
research Alopecia - the search for novel agents continues
Many potential alopecia treatments need more testing to confirm they promote acceptable hair growth with minimal side effects.
research Endocrine treatment of benign prostatichypertrophy: Current concepts
New hormonal treatments for enlarged prostate show promise for safer, effective non-surgical options.
research COMBINATION OF AN ANTIANDROGEN AND A 5α-REDUCTASE INHIBITOR: A FURTHER STEP TOWARDS TOTAL ANDROGEN BLOCKADE?
Using two drugs together, Flutamide and 4-MA, is more effective for blocking male hormones than using each one alone.
research Selective induction of apoptosis in the hamster flank sebaceous gland organ by a topical liposome 5-α-reductase inhibitor: A treatment strategy for acne
A topical treatment safely and effectively reduced acne by causing targeted cell death in sebaceous glands without side effects.
research Adrenal steroid precursors exert potent androgenic action in the hamster sebaceous glands of flank organs and ears.
Certain adrenal hormones can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in hamster skin, similar to male hormones.
research Establishment of an evaluation method to detect drug distribution in hair follicles
Researchers developed a method to measure drugs in hair follicles and found that both water-loving and fat-loving drugs can be detected after being applied to the skin.
research Pharmacodynamic modeling of finasteride, a 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor.
Finasteride, a drug that changes testosterone to a different hormone, was studied and its effects over time were modeled successfully.
research Pharmacological aspects of hair follicle growth
Minoxidil and 4-MA can help treat hair loss.
research Synthesis of minoxidil conjugates and their evaluation as HL-60 differentiation agents
Some minoxidil combinations can help differentiate leukemia cells without harming other cells.

CTE can distort results in hair growth trials, so exclude it carefully.
research Steroids excreted by human skin. I. C19-steroids in axillary hair.
Human skin releases different steroids, with some coming from sebaceous glands and others from sweat glands.
research Effects of chronic inhibition of Testosterone metabolism on cardiac remodeling after ischemia/reperfusion-induced myocardial damage in gonadectomized rats
Testosterone reduces heart damage and inflammation after injury.
research Correction of the Cornrow Transplant and Other Common Problems in Surgical Hair Restoration
The document suggests fixing common hair transplant issues by combining artistic principles with plug reduction, recycling, and additional micrograft transplantation, while also potentially using arnica to help with post-operative swelling.
