600-630 / 1000+ resultsresearch Risk factors for prostate cancer: a case-control study in Greece
Urban living may increase prostate cancer risk, while early sexual activity might reduce it.
research What Surgeons Need to Know About Gender Confirmation Surgery When Providing Care for Transgender Individuals
Surgeons must understand the full care process for gender confirmation surgery to help transgender individuals effectively.
research Patient factors influencing dermal filler complications: prevention, assessment, and treatment
Choosing the right patients, using proper techniques, and having thorough knowledge are key to preventing and managing dermal filler complications.
research Regulatory Roles of Cytokinins and Cytokinin Signaling in Response to Potassium Deficiency in Arabidopsis
Reduced cytokinin levels help plants adapt to low potassium by increasing root hair growth and potassium uptake.
research Prevalence of androgenetic alopecia in China: a community-based study in six cities
Baldness is more common in Chinese men than women, increasing with age, and is influenced by genetics.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia versus lichen planopilaris: a clinicopathological study
The conclusion is that FFA and LPP have similar scalp biopsy features, making them hard to distinguish histologically, and FFA may be a specific kind of scarring hair loss.
research Macrocytosis and pseudoalbinism: Manifestations of selenium deficiency
Selenium deficiency can cause skin and hair color loss, muscle weakness, and blood cell changes, but these improve with selenium supplements.
research Indications for a brain‐hair follicle axis: inhibition of keratinocyte proliferation and up‐regulation of keratinocyte apoptosis in telogen hair follicles by stress and substance P
Stress can cause hair loss by negatively affecting hair follicles and this effect might be reversed with specific treatments.
research Cepharanthine: An update of its mode of action, pharmacological properties and medical applications
Cepharanthine is a well-tolerated drug with multiple medical uses, including anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties.
research Polysaccharides from Traditional Chinese Medicines: Extraction, Purification, Modification, and Biological Activity
Substances from Chinese medicines show promise for immune support and disease prevention, but the way they are processed affects their effectiveness.
research A new classification of pattern hair loss that is universal for men and women: Basic and specific (BASP) classification
The BASP classification is a detailed and accurate way to categorize hair loss in both men and women.
research iε-(γ-Glutamyl) lysine cross-linkage in citrulline-containing protein fractions from hair
Specific cross-linkages help make hair proteins stable and strong.
research Mice humanised for the EGF receptor display hypomorphic phenotypes in skin, bone and heart
Mice with human-like EGFR had growth issues, skin defects, heart problems, and unusual bone development.
research Induction of follicle formation and hair growth by vibrissa dermal papillae implanted into rat ear wounds: vibrissa-type fibres are specified
Implanted dermal papillae can induce hair growth in rat ear wounds.
research Impact of the Different Preparation Methods to Obtain Human Adipose-Derived Stromal Vascular Fraction Cells (AD-SVFs) and Human Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (AD-MSCs): Enzymatic Digestion Versus Mechanical Centrifugation
Standardized kits improve the quality and consistency of isolating stem cells from fat tissue.
research Stretching the limits: from homeostasis to stem cell plasticity in wound healing and cancer
Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.
research Type XVII collagen coordinates proliferation in the interfollicular epidermis
Type XVII collagen helps control skin cell growth and could be a target for anti-aging treatments.
research TRP Channels in Skin Biology and Pathophysiology
TRP channels in the skin are important for sensation and health, and targeting them could help treat skin disorders.
research Effect of Testosterone Supplementation With and Without a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor on Fat-Free Mass in Men With Suppressed Testosterone Production
Testosterone's muscle-building effects do not require its conversion to DHT.
research Adult polycystic ovary syndrome begins in childhood
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome likely starts in childhood and may be genetic and influenced by early hormone exposure.
research Human Peptidylarginine Deiminase Type III: Molecular Cloning and Nucleotide Sequence of the cDNA, Properties of the Recombinant Enzyme, and Immunohistochemical Localization in Human Skin
PAD3 plays a key role in hair and skin protein structure and may be linked to skin diseases.
research Efficient delivery of transgenes to human hair follicle progenitor cells using topical lipoplex
research Activation of Polyamine Catabolism Profoundly Alters Tissue Polyamine Pools and Affects Hair Growth and Female Fertility in Transgenic Mice Overexpressing Spermidine/SpermineN 1-Acetyltransferase
Overexpressing a specific enzyme in mice causes hair loss and female infertility.
research Comparison of finasteride (proscar®), a 5α reductase inhibitor, and various commercial plant extracts in in vitro and in vivo 5α reductase inhibition
Finasteride effectively inhibits 5α reductase, while plant extracts like Permixon and Bazoton don't show significant results.
research Cultured dermal papilla cells from androgen-dependent human hair follicles (e.g. beard) contain more androgen receptors than those from non-balding areas of scalp
Beard hair follicles have more androgen receptors than non-balding scalp hair follicles.
research Patterns of expression of trichocytic and epithelial cytokeratins in mammalian tissues
Trichocytic differentiation starts in cells with epithelial cytokeratins, transitioning to trichocytic cytokeratins in hair and gradually in nails.
research Central Opioid Inhibition of Neuroendocrine Stress Responses in Pregnancy in the Rat Is Induced by the Neurosteroid Allopregnanolone
In late pregnancy, allopregnanolone reduces stress responses in rats by affecting brain chemicals.
