research Hair Follicle Chemosensation: TRPM5 Signaling Is Required for Anagen Maintenance
TRPM5 is crucial for maintaining hair growth.
research The clinical applications of five-alpha reductase inhibitors.
Five-alpha reductase inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, can treat enlarged prostates, improve urination, reduce need for prostate surgery, and lower the risk of prostate cancer, but may increase the risk of higher grade prostate cancer. They can also treat male pattern baldness.
research A New Look at the 5?-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and hair loss, but may cause side effects in some patients.
research Comparative study between fractional carbon dioxide laser vs intralesional steroid injection in treatment of alopecia areata
FCO2 laser is a better treatment for alopecia areata than intralesional steroids.
research Charting the Bromodomain BRD4: Towards the Identification of Novel Inhibitors with Molecular Similarity and Receptor Mapping
Researchers identified promising inhibitors for the BRD4 protein, including finasteride and amentoflavone.
research Ferulic Acid Induces Keratin 6α via Inhibition of Nuclear β-Catenin Accumulation and Activation of Nrf2 in Wound-Induced Inflammation
Ferulic acid helps wounds heal faster by reducing inflammation and promoting skin cell movement.
research Genomic and Transcriptomic Characterization of Atypical Recurrent Flank Alopecia in the Cesky Fousek
The study found that the hair loss condition in Cesky Fousek dogs is influenced by multiple genes affecting skin and muscle structure, fat metabolism, and immunity.
research mRNA Levels of Aromatase, 5α-Reductase Isozymes, and Prostate Cancer-Related Genes in Plucked Hair from Young Men with Androgenic Alopecia
Men with early balding showed higher levels of certain genes linked to hair loss and possibly prostate cancer.
research PRMT5 inhibition has a potent anti-tumor activity against adenoid cystic carcinoma of salivary glands
PRMT5 inhibitors effectively fight adenoid cystic carcinoma in salivary glands.
research Natural Product-Inspired Bis(trifluoromethyl) Phenyl Hydroxycinnamate Derivatives as Promising Nonsteroidal Inhibitors of Human Steroid 5α-Reductase Type-1: Synthesis, In Vitro, and In Silico Studies
New compounds show promise as nonsteroidal treatments for hair loss.
research Adverse Effects of 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors: a narrative review
5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors can cause negative side effects.
research Research on Expression of Retinoid-related Orphan Receptor (ROR) in the Skin of Cashmere Goat
