research Effects of dihydrotestosterone on rat dermal papilla cells in vitro
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) doesn't affect rat skin cell growth, but it does change cell cycle, protein levels, and other cell functions, potentially shortening hair growth cycle.
research Characterization of X‐linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XL‐HED) hair and sweat gland phenotypes using phototrichogram analysis and live confocal imaging
People with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia have no sweat ducts and less, thinner hair.
research Helpful diagnostic markers of steroidogenesis for defining hyperandrogenemia in hirsute women
The study concluded that androstendione and DHEA are important for diagnosing high male hormone levels in women with excessive hair growth.
research Minoxidil Cannot Be Used To Target Lysyl Hydroxylases during Postnatal Mouse Lung Development: A Cautionary Note
Minoxidil does not work to inhibit lysyl hydroxylases in newborn mouse lungs.
research Isotretinoin
Isotretinoin is a preferred treatment for severe acne, often leading to long-term improvement, but requires careful monitoring due to potential side effects.
research Vitamin D, Lipid Metabolism and Prostate Cancer
Vitamin D may help regulate cholesterol and influence prostate cancer development.
research TYK2 Inhibition with Deucravacitinib Improves Clinical Outcomes and Resolves Interferon-Driven Inflammation in Lichen Planopilaris
Deucravacitinib improves symptoms and reduces inflammation in Lichen Planopilaris.
research The combination of Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) and Nigella sativa Oil (NSO) in wound healing: A histochemical study of diabetic wounds
Combining Virgin Coconut Oil and Nigella Sativa Oil speeds up healing in diabetic wounds.
research Drug Therapy in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Low-dose flutamide-metformin therapy effectively improved PCOS symptoms in adolescent girls.
research CXCR3 Blockade Inhibits T Cell Migration into the Skin and Prevents Development of Alopecia Areata
Blocking the CXCR3 receptor reduces T cell accumulation in the skin and prevents hair loss in mice.
research Induction of hair follicle dermal papilla cell properties in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived multipotent LNGFR(+)THY-1(+) mesenchymal cells
Researchers found a way to create cells from stem cells that act like human cells important for hair growth and could be used for hair regeneration treatments.
research Efficacy of bergamot: From anti‐inflammatory and anti‐oxidative mechanisms to clinical applications as preventive agent for cardiovascular morbidity, skin diseases, and mood alterations
Bergamot may improve heart health, skin conditions, and mood, but more research is needed to confirm these benefits.
research Oncogenic senescence: a multi-functional perspective
Cellular senescence has both cancer-blocking and cancer-promoting effects, and targeting senescent cells may improve health and lifespan.
research Thymosin β4 Promotes Dermal Healing
Thymosin β4 helps improve skin healing and reduce scarring.
research Allopregnanolone promotes proliferation and differential gene expression in human glioblastoma cells
Allopregnanolone increases growth and changes gene activity in human brain cancer cells.
research A comparison of transcriptomic patterns measured in the skin of Chinese fine and coarse wool sheep breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research Combination of an engineered Lactococcus lactis expressing CXCL12 with light‐emitting diode yellow light as a treatment for scalded skin in mice
The combined treatment with engineered bacteria and yellow LED light improved wound healing in mice.
research Antiandrogens and Androgen Inhibitors
Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues. Herbal remedies also have antiandrogenic effects but lack safety validation.
research Fibromodulin-Deficiency Alters Temporospatial Expression Patterns of Transforming Growth Factor-β Ligands and Receptors during Adult Mouse Skin Wound Healing
Mice lacking fibromodulin have disrupted healing patterns, leading to abnormal skin repair and scarring.
research Photoprotective and immunoregulatory capacity of ginsenoside Rg1 in chronic ultraviolet B-irradiated BALB/c mouse skin
Ginsenoside Rg1 protects mouse skin from UVB damage and helps control inflammation.
research Safety and efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccine in children and/or adolescents:A meta-analysis
COVID-19 vaccines are safe and highly effective for children, with inactivated vaccines being slightly better.
research Analgesic Effect of Human Placenta Hydrolysate on CFA-Induced Inflammatory Pain in Mice
Human placenta hydrolysate reduces inflammatory pain and nerve damage in mice.
research Optimization and Transfollicular Delivery of Finasteride-Loaded Proniosomes for Hair Growth Stimulation in C57BL/6Mlac Mice
Finasteride-loaded proniosomes effectively promote hair growth in mice.
research Fluoxetine Decreases the Proliferation and Adipogenic Differentiation of Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cells
Fluoxetine may help reduce fat by limiting stem cell growth and fat cell formation.
research Circulating Androgen Concentrations and Risk of Incident Heart Failure in Older Men: The Cardiovascular Health Study
Lower testosterone levels may increase heart failure risk in older men.
research Somatic Mutations in Normal Tissues: New Perspectives on Early Carcinogenesis
Cancer risk is linked to the balance of mutations and environmental factors, not just the number of mutations.
research Characterization of Clinical Features of Hospitalized Patients Due to the SARS-CoV-2 Infection in the Absence of Comorbidities Regarding the Sex: An Epidemiological Study of the First Year of the Pandemic in Brazil
