research Drug-Induced Skin, Nail and Hair Disorders
Some drugs can cause skin, nail, and hair problems, which are important for healthcare professionals to recognize and report.
research Psychological Effect, Pathophysiology, and Management of Androgenetic Alopecia in Men
Minoxidil and finasteride can slow hair loss and stimulate regrowth, but won't restore all lost hair or reverse complete baldness.
research Principles of Hair Cycle Control
Manipulating the catagen and telogen phases of hair growth could lead to treatments for hair disorders.
research Human epithelial hair follicle stem cells and their progeny: Current state of knowledge, the widening gap in translational research and future challenges
We need more research to better understand human hair follicle stem cells for improved treatments for hair loss and skin cancer.
research Lichen Planopilaris Treated With a Peroxisome Proliferator–Activated Receptor γ Agonist
A specific drug can help treat Lichen Planopilaris, a condition causing permanent hair loss.
research Acne-associated syndromes: models for better understanding of acne pathogenesis
The document concludes that certain genetic mutations and dietary factors are involved in acne development, and treatments like isotretinoin and diet changes can help manage it.
research Aging of hair
Hair ages due to genetics and environmental factors, leading to graying and thinning, with treatments available for some conditions.
research Hyaluronidase Modulates Inflammatory Response and Accelerates the Cutaneous Wound Healing
Hyaluronidase speeds up wound healing and reduces inflammation.
research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research A randomized, active- and placebo-controlled study of the efficacy and safety of different doses of dutasteride versus placebo and finasteride in the treatment of male subjects with androgenetic alopecia
Dutasteride 0.5 mg works better than finasteride and placebo for increasing hair in men with hair loss.
research Hormones and the pilosebaceous unit
Hormones significantly affect hair and oil gland function in the skin, and more research is needed on skin-related hormone disorders.
research Cutaneous and Ocular Late Complications of Sulfur Mustard in Iranian Veterans
Iranian veterans exposed to sulfur mustard suffer from long-term skin itching and eye damage, with some risk of skin cancer and ongoing management challenges.
research Hair evaluation methods: Merits and demerits
Different hair evaluation methods have their own pros and cons, and using multiple methods together is best for accurate hair loss diagnosis and tracking.
research THE PATHOGENESIS OF ALOPECIA AREATA
Alopecia areata is likely caused by a combination of genetic factors and immune system dysfunction, and may represent different diseases with various causes.
research Biocomposite nanofiber matrices to support ECM remodeling by human dermal progenitors and enhanced wound closure
The nanofiber scaffolds improved skin wound healing by supporting cell growth and tissue repair.
research Immune-related alopecia (areata and universalis) in cancer patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors
Cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors may develop alopecia, but some hair regrowth is possible with treatment.
research FOXO1, TGF-β Regulation and Wound Healing
FOXO1 is important for wound healing, but its dysfunction in diabetes can slow the healing process.
research Flares of systemic lupus erythematosus during pregnancy and the puerperium: prevention, diagnosis and management
Pregnancy can increase lupus activity, but careful planning and treatment can improve outcomes.
research Epidermal Notch1 recruits RORγ+ group 3 innate lymphoid cells to orchestrate normal skin repair
Notch1 helps skin heal by attracting specific immune cells.
research The importance of adequate serum ferritin levels during oral cyproterone acetate and ethinyl oestradiol treatment of diffuse androgen-dependent alopecia in women
Having enough iron improves the effectiveness of a specific hair loss treatment in women.
research Androgen excess: Investigations and management
The conclusion is that managing androgen excess requires long-term treatment, including hormonal contraceptives and androgen blockers, with follow-up after six months.
research Alopecia areata: Animal models illuminate autoimmune pathogenesis and novel immunotherapeutic strategies
Animal models have helped understand hair loss from alopecia areata and find new treatments.
research Eating Disorders: Progress and Challenges
Despite progress, better treatments and understanding are needed for the high rates of long-term issues and deaths linked to eating disorders.
research Activin Controls Skin Morphogenesis and Wound Repair Predominantly via Stromal Cells and in a Concentration-Dependent Manner via Keratinocytes
Activin helps skin growth and healing mainly through stromal cells and affects keratinocytes based on its amount.
research What causes hidradenitis suppurativa ?—15 years after
Hidradenitis suppurativa is caused by genetic factors, inflammation, bacteria, hormones, and lifestyle factors like obesity and smoking.
research Applications of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Skin Regeneration and Rejuvenation
Mesenchymal stem cells show potential for skin healing and anti-aging, but more research is needed for safe use, especially regarding stem cells from induced pluripotent sources.
research Alopecia: evaluation and treatment
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and FDA-approved treatments for different types of hair loss exist, but treatments for severe cases often fail and future improvements may focus on hair follicle stem cells.
research Acne and Systemic Disease
Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in acne, which can be a symptom of systemic diseases like PCOS and may require targeted treatment.
research Dermatologic Manifestations of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS often have skin problems like excessive hair, acne, hair loss, and dark patches, which can be treated with hormonal and non-hormonal therapies.
