research Dissection of genetic variation and evidence for pleiotropy in male pattern baldness
Male pattern baldness is mostly inherited, involves many genes, and is linked to other traits like early puberty and strong bones.
research USE OF TOPICAL MINOXIDIL THERAPY FOR ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA IN WOMEN
Minoxidil helps hair growth and reduces shedding in women.
research Dose-response study of topical minoxidil in male pattern baldness
Lowest effective minoxidil concentration is 1%, but 2% works better for male pattern baldness.
research Sequence-structure based phylogeny of GPCR Class A Rhodopsin receptors
The research found how GPCR Class A Rhodopsin receptors are related and suggested possible substances they interact with.
research 5α-Reductase type 2 gene variant associations with prostate cancer risk, circulating hormone levels and androgenetic alopecia
A49T gene variant linked to higher prostate cancer risk, lower hormone levels, and slightly reduced balding risk.
research Cyclosporin A-induced hair growth in mice is associated with inhibition of calcineurin-dependent activation of NFAT in follicular keratinocytes
Cyclosporin A helps mice grow hair by blocking a specific protein activity in skin cells.
research Clinical, ultrasound and hormonal markers of androgenicity in acne vulgaris
Acne severity is linked to higher levels of certain androgenic hormones, even when those levels are within the normal range.
research Dihydrotestosterone Stimulates 5a-Reductase Activity in Pubic Skin Fibroblasts*
Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
research Current Evidence for Clinical Efficacy of Platelet Rich Plasma in Aesthetic Surgery: A Systematic Review
The document concludes that the effectiveness of platelet rich plasma in aesthetic surgery is unclear due to inconsistent reporting and lack of objective measures in studies.
research A neuroendocrinological perspective on human hair follicle pigmentation
Brain hormones significantly affect hair color and could potentially be used to prevent or reverse grey hair.
research Comparison of the efficacy and safety of topical minoxidil and topical alfatradiol in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia in women
Minoxidil works better for female hair loss than alfatradiol, both safe.
research Development of Liposomal Systems of Finasteride for Topical Applications: Design, Characterization, and In Vitro Evaluation
Liposomes improve finasteride delivery for hair loss treatment, making it a promising option for topical use.
research Matriptase activation and shedding with HAI-1 is induced by steroid sex hormones in human prostate cancer cells, but not in breast cancer cells
Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.
research A comparison of vertical versus transverse sections in the evaluation of alopecia biopsy specimens
Using both vertical and transverse sections gives a better diagnosis of alopecia than using one method alone.
research Bi-allelic Mutations in LSS, Encoding Lanosterol Synthase, Cause Autosomal-Recessive Hypotrichosis Simplex
Mutations in the LSS gene cause a rare type of hereditary hair loss.
research Involvement of Wnt, Eda and Shh at defined stages of sweat gland development
Wnt, Eda, and Shh pathways are crucial for different stages of sweat gland development in mice.
research 25 Years of Epidermal Stem Cell Research
Research on epidermal stem cells has advanced significantly, showing promise for improved clinical therapies.
research Valence-engineered catalysis-selectivity regulation of molybdenum oxide nanozyme for acute kidney injury therapy and post-cure assessment
Molybdenum oxide nanozymes can effectively treat and monitor acute kidney injury by reducing oxidative stress.
research Benefit and risk profile of tofacitinib for the treatment of alopecia areata: a systemic review and meta‐analysis
Tofacitinib is somewhat effective for alopecia areata, but more research is needed on its safety and long-term effects.
research Treatment with and withdrawal from finasteride alter ethanol intake patterns in male C57BL/6J mice: Potential role of endogenous neurosteroids?
Finasteride affects alcohol intake in male mice, possibly due to neurosteroids.
research Chronic telogen effluvium: A study of 5 patients over 7 years
Most patients with chronic hair shedding did not progress to permanent hair loss, and one showed improvement with treatment.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research Bacteria induce skin regeneration via IL-1β signaling
Skin bacteria, specifically Staphylococcus aureus, help in wound healing and hair growth by using IL-1β signaling. Using antibiotics on skin wounds can slow down this natural healing process.
research Functional enhancement strategies for immunomodulation of mesenchymal stem cells and their therapeutic application
New methods to improve the healing abilities of mesenchymal stem cells for disease treatment are promising but need more research.
research Genetic Defects in Human Pericentrin Are Associated With Severe Insulin Resistance and Diabetes
People with PCNT mutations often develop severe insulin resistance and early-onset diabetes during childhood or adolescence.
research Effect of physical stimuli on hair follicle deposition of clobetasol-loaded Lipid Nanocarriers
NLCs with manual massage greatly improve clobetasol delivery to hair follicles.
research The effect of autologous activated platelet-rich plasma injection on female pattern hair loss: A randomized placebo-controlled study
PRP injections improve hair density and thickness in women with hair loss.
research Post-transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
miR-22, a type of microRNA, controls hair growth and its overproduction can cause hair loss, while its absence can speed up hair growth.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: An update
The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.
