Targeting the p300/AR axis may help treat polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Hyaluronic acid-FGF2-derived peptide bioconjugates for suppression of FGFR2 and AR simultaneously as an acne antagonist
The new anti-acne treatment HA-P5 effectively reduces acne by targeting two key receptors and avoids an enzyme that can hinder treatment.
research Low-Dose Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) Suppresses Androgen Receptor (AR) and Its Splice Variant AR-V7 in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC) Cells
Low-dose DMSO may help treat castration-resistant prostate cancer by reducing key cancer cell receptors.
research Dynamic regulation of retinoic acid-binding proteins in developing, adult and neoplastic skin reveals roles for β-catenin and Notch signalling
Retinoic acid-binding proteins in skin are regulated by β-catenin and Notch signalling.
research A high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry assay of the androgenic neurosteroid 3α-androstanediol (5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol) in plasma
Testosterone increases 3α-androstanediol levels, which can be blocked by finasteride.
research Novel TMEM173 Mutation and the Role of Disease Modifying Alleles
A new mutation in the STING protein causes a range of symptoms and its severity may be affected by other genetic variations; treatment with a specific inhibitor showed improvement in one patient.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research A systematic summary of survival and death signalling during the life of hair follicle stem cells
The conclusion is that understanding how hair follicle stem cells live or die is important for maintaining healthy tissue and repairing injuries, and could help treat hair loss, but there are still challenges to overcome.
research A Comprehensive Review of Mammalian Pigmentation: Paving the Way for Innovative Hair Colour-Changing Cosmetics
Innovative cosmetics could safely change hair color by targeting biological hair pigmentation processes.
research A counter gradient of Activin A and follistatin instructs the timing of hair cell differentiation in the murine cochlea
Activin A and follistatin control when hair cells develop in mouse ears.
research The AR/miR-221/IGF-1 pathway mediates the pathogenesis of androgenetic alopecia
A specific pathway involving AR, miR-221, and IGF-1 plays a key role in causing common hair loss.
research A Subset of TREM2+ Dermal Macrophages Secretes Oncostatin M to Maintain Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence and Inhibit Hair Growth
Certain immune cells in the skin release a protein that stops hair growth by keeping hair stem cells inactive.
research A guide to the use of bioassays in exploration of natural resources
Bioassays help find useful compounds in nature for making medicines, supplements, and cosmetics.
research Major Improvement in Wound Healing Through Pharmacologic Mobilization of Stem Cells in Severely Diabetic Rats
A new therapy sped up wound healing and reduced scarring in diabetic rats.
research Vitamin A in Skin and Hair: An Update
Vitamin A is important for healthy skin and hair, influencing hair growth and skin healing, but UV light reduces its levels.
research Adam10 haploinsufficiency causes freckle-like macules in Hairless mice
A mutation in the Adam10 gene causes freckle-like spots on Hairless mice.
research A probabilistic Boolean model on hair follicle cell fate regulation by TGF-β
TGF-β and TNF influence hair follicle cell fate, with TNF being more effective in triggering cell death.
research A Multifaceted View on Ageing of the Hair and Scalp
Proper scalp care can improve hair health and delay ageing signs.
