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 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 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 Androgen sensitivity gateway to COVID ‐19 disease severity
Men's sensitivity to male hormones might affect how severe COVID-19 gets for them.
research Tumor Angiogenesis and Anti-angiogenic Therapy
Anti-angiogenic therapy can help treat cancer but may cause resistance and side effects, so alternative methods are being explored.
research Nanoparticles for Topical Application in the Treatment of Skin Dysfunctions—An Overview of Dermo-Cosmetic and Dermatological Products
Nanoparticles improve skin treatment but need more research on safety and effectiveness.
research Cardiovascular risks and elevation of serum DHT vary by route of testosterone administration: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Oral testosterone therapy raises heart risk more than other methods.
research Molecular basis of androgenetic alopecia: From androgen to paracrine mediators through dermal papilla
Male pattern baldness involves hormones and cell signals affecting hair growth.
research Sex differences in COVID-19: the role of androgens in disease severity and progression
Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.
research Impact of estrogens in males and androgens in females
Both estrogens and androgens are important for health in both males and females.
research Androgenetic alopecia present in the majority of patients hospitalized with COVID-19: The “Gabrin sign”
Most COVID-19 patients in hospitals have androgenetic alopecia, more in men, suggesting a link between androgen sensitivity and severe COVID-19 symptoms.
research Increased androgen bioavailability is associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with PCOS and higher androgen levels are more likely to have fatty liver disease.
research MIM and Cortactin Antagonism Regulates Ciliogenesis and Hedgehog Signaling
MIM is crucial for hair follicle formation and regeneration by controlling cilia formation and hedgehog signaling through its interaction with Cortactin and Src.
research Thymosin β4 promotes angiogenesis, wound healing, and hair follicle development
Thymosin β4 helps heal wounds, grow hair, and improve blood vessel formation.
research Effects of in Utero Exposure to Finasteride on Androgen-Dependent Reproductive Development in the Male Rat
Exposure to finasteride in the womb caused lasting reproductive issues in male rats.
research A Nonredundant Human Protein Chip for Antibody Screening and Serum Profiling
The technology can help diagnose and subtype autoimmune diseases by identifying specific autoantibodies.
research Possible mechanisms of miniaturization during androgenetic alopecia or pattern hair loss
Hair loss occurs due to fewer papillary cells, smaller follicles, and shorter growth phases.
research Platelet-rich plasma in androgenic alopecia: Myth or an effective tool
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a cheap and easy treatment for hair loss, but not suitable for everyone. It also helps in healing ulcers, rejuvenating skin, and improving hair transplants.
research Early androgenetic alopecia as a marker of insulin resistance
Early hair loss may indicate risk of insulin resistance.
research Thyroid Hormones Directly Alter Human Hair Follicle Functions: Anagen Prolongation and Stimulation of Both Hair Matrix Keratinocyte Proliferation and Hair Pigmentation
Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.
research Steroid 5α-reductases and 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases: key enzymes in androgen metabolism
Key enzymes control androgen levels, affecting hormone activity and potential treatments.
research More than 50 Long-term effects of COVID-19: a systematic review and meta-analysis
COVID-19 can cause over 50 long-term symptoms, with fatigue and headache being the most common.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome, androgen excess, and the risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in women: A longitudinal study based on a United Kingdom primary care database
Women with PCOS are more than twice as likely to develop nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
research Extracellular vesicles derived from MSCs activates dermal papilla cell in vitro and promotes hair follicle conversion from telogen to anagen in mice
Tiny particles from stem cells help activate hair growth cells and encourage hair growth in mice without being toxic.
research New Antifungal Agents and New Formulations Against Dermatophytes
New topical antifungals and delivery systems are improving treatment for fungal skin infections, but patient education and prevention are key.
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 Disorders linked to insufficient androgen action in male children
Insufficient androgen action in male fetuses can cause genital development issues due to genetic mutations or environmental chemicals.
research THE HAIR CYCLE OF THE MOUSE AND ITS IMPORTANCE IN THE STUDY OF SEQUENCES OF EXPERIMENTAL CARCINOGENESIS
