research Scalp photodamage in balding men: An observational study combining a novel clinical scoring method with estimation of individual sun exposure history and risk factors
The study concluded that a new method can effectively assess scalp sun damage in balding men, which increases with age and sun exposure.
research 692 Prevention of H 2 O 2 -induced cellular senescence in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells
Certain compounds can protect hair cells from aging and promote growth.
research Early-onset baldness and the risk of aggressive prostate cancer: findings from a case–control study
Men who start balding at age 20 may have a higher chance of getting aggressive prostate cancer.
research Pathogenesis and causes of hirsutism
Hirsutism is mainly caused by high androgen levels or sensitivity, with PCOS being the most common cause.
research Surgical approach to adolescent obesity
Bariatric surgery may help severely obese teenagers but has risks and requires careful patient selection and long-term care.
research Getting under the skin of hair aging: the impact of the hair follicle environment
Aging scalp skin contributes to hair aging and loss, and more research is needed to develop better hair loss treatments.
research Morphological and morphometric study of the androgenetic alopecic scalp using two- and three-dimensional analysis comparing regional differences
The study found that balding scalps have more thin hairs and larger oil glands, which might contribute to skin conditions related to hair loss.
research Endocrine Influences on Hair Growth
Hormones and genetics affect hair growth and patterns, with some changes reversible and others not.
research Age-related hair changes in men: Mechanisms and management of alopecia and graying
Men's hair loss is caused by hormones and genes, and can be treated with medication and surgery, while graying is due to aging and has no prevention except dyeing.
research The psychological and aesthetic impact of age‐related hair changes in females
Hair loss affects women's self-esteem; treatments like minoxidil can help.
research Oxidative stress management in the hair follicle: Could targeting NRF2 counter age‐related hair disorders and beyond?
Activating NRF2 might help treat hair disorders by improving antioxidant defenses.
research Age-related downregulation of dihydrotestosterone-inactivating enzymes in human scalp sebaceous glands
AKR1C enzymes in scalp glands decrease with age, possibly affecting hair loss.
research Human scalp hair: Modulation by various factors and hormones do estrogens inhibit or stimulate—A perplexing perspective
The effects of estrogen on human scalp hair growth are unclear and need more research.
research Possibilities and Limitations for Reversal of Age-Related Hair Loss
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 Age-Dependent Associations between Androgenetic Alopecia and Prostate Cancer Risk
Early balding at 40 increases prostate cancer risk.
research Hair Loss and It’s Homeopathic Approach
Combining trichology and homeopathy is effective for diagnosing and treating hair loss.
research Aging Skin: A Window to the Body
Skin aging reflects overall body aging and can indicate internal health conditions.
research Hair Aging Revisited: An Expert Delphi Consensus on Pathogenesis, Clinical Features, and Future Therapies
Experts agree on understanding hair aging to improve diagnosis and treatments.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Topical finasteride in the treatment of androgenic alopecia. Preliminary evaluations after a 16-month therapy course
Topical finasteride helps regrow hair and reduce balding without side effects.
research Impairment of autophagy may be associated with follicular miniaturization in androgenetic alopecia by inducing premature catagen
Impaired autophagy may cause hair loss by triggering early catagen.
research Prevalence Of Male Balding Pattern In Patient From Saveetha Dental College- Retrospective Comparative Evaluation Study
Balding in men worsens with age.
research Age, lifestyle and self‐perceptions of hair: Is there an association with hair diameter and tensile properties?
Older age and certain lifestyles are linked to thinner, weaker hair, while how you see your hair relates to its thickness.
research Frequency, severity and related factors of androgenetic alopecia in dermatology outpatient clinic: hospital-based cross-sectional study in Turkey
AGA more common in men, increases with age, linked to family history, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and smoking.
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 Premature Senescence of Balding Dermal Papilla Cells In Vitro Is Associated with p16INK4a Expression
Balding cells age faster due to stress, suggesting stress-targeting treatments for hair loss.
research Oxidative stress in ageing of hair
Oxidative stress contributes to hair graying and loss as we age.
research Male‐pattern baldness, common latent viruses, and microcompetition
Common latent viruses might contribute to male-pattern baldness by disrupting cell processes that normally suppress hair loss-related proteins.
