Most dermatologic medications are safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but some should be avoided due to potential risks.
research Oxidative stress and autoimmune skin disease
Antioxidants may help fight oxidative stress linked to autoimmune skin diseases.
research Clonal multipotency and effect of long-term in vitro expansion on differentiation potential of human hair follicle derived mesenchymal stem cells
Human hair follicle stem cells can turn into multiple cell types but lose some of this ability after being grown in the lab for a long time.
research Ovarian Morphology Is a Marker of Heritable Biochemical Traits in Sisters with Polycystic Ovaries
Polycystic ovarian shape is a genetic sign of PCOS and its hormonal and metabolic features can be inherited.
research Prolactin Signaling Influences the Timing Mechanism of the Hair Follicle: Analysis of Hair Growth Cycles in Prolactin Receptor Knockout Mice*
Prolactin affects when mice shed and grow hair.
research Alopecia Areata: An Evidence-Based Treatment Update
Some treatments, like corticosteroids and sensitizing agents, can help with alopecia areata, but more high-quality research is needed.
research Expression of Calcium-Binding S100 Proteins A4 and A6 in Regions of the Epithelial Sac Associated with the Onset of Hair Follicle Regeneration
S100A4 and S100A6 proteins may activate stem cells for hair follicle regeneration and could be potential targets for hair loss treatments.
research mTOR signaling promotes stem cell activation via counterbalancing BMP-mediated suppression during hair regeneration
mTOR signaling helps activate hair stem cells by balancing out the suppression caused by BMP during hair growth.
research A Human Folliculoid Microsphere Assay for Exploring Epithelial– Mesenchymal Interactions in the Human Hair Follicle
HFMs can help study hair growth and test potential hair growth drugs.
research p53 Involvement in the Control of Murine Hair Follicle Regression
The p53 protein helps control hair follicle shrinking by promoting cell death in mice.
research Drug discovery for alopecia: gone today, hair tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research Beyond Expectations
Keratin proteins are crucial for healthy skin, but mutations can cause skin disorders with no effective treatments yet.
research Clinical and endocrine effects of finasteride, a 5α-reductase inhibitor, in women with idiopathic hirsutism
Finasteride reduces hairiness and androgen levels in women with unexplained excessive hair growth.
research Predicting therapeutic drugs for hepatocellular carcinoma based on tissue-specific pathways
Securinine and ajmaline may effectively treat liver cancer, with securinine being less toxic to normal cells.
research Ovarian leukocyte distribution and cytokine/chemokine mRNA expression in follicular fluid cells in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with PCOS have fewer activated T cells in their ovarian follicles, which might affect fertility.
research Ectopic Expression of the nude Gene Induces Hyperproliferation and Defects in Differentiation: Implications for the Self-Renewal of Cutaneous Epithelia
The nude gene causes skin cell overgrowth and improper development, leading to hair and urinary issues.
research COVID-19 and endocrine and metabolic diseases. An updated statement from the European Society of Endocrinology
People with diabetes or obesity should manage their conditions carefully as they have a higher risk of severe COVID-19.
research Non-Edg family LPA receptors: the cutting edge of LPA research
New LPA receptors (LPA4, LPA5, LPA6) have diverse roles in the body.
research The silver locus product (Silv/gp100/Pmel17) as a new tool for the analysis of melanosome transfer in human melanocyte–keratinocyte co‐culture
The new assay can track and measure melanosome transfer between skin cells, confirming filopodia's role in this process.
research Tumour regression predicts higher risk of sentinel node involvement in thin cutaneous melanomas
Shrinking skin cancer increases the chance of cancer in nearby lymph nodes.
research Physiological and pharmacological features of the non-saponin components in Korean Red Ginseng
Korean Red Ginseng has beneficial components that help with stress, immunity, fatigue, memory, blood flow, and disease protection.
research Beta-caryophyllene enhances wound healing through multiple routes

research Permanent chemotherapy-induced alopecia: Case report and review of the literature
Some chemotherapy can cause permanent hair loss.
research Effect of estrogens on skin aging and the potential role of selective estrogen receptor modulators
Estrogens and SERMs can help with skin aging, but their safety and effectiveness need more research.
research Dermatology of androgen-related disorders
