Targeting androgen receptors could be a promising way to treat skin disorders with fewer side effects.
research Biochemical and trichological characterization of diffuse alopecia in women
Diffuse alopecia in women may be related to androgens and iron deficiency, and basic hormone and nutrient screening is useful.
research Treatment of hyperandrogenic alopecia in women
Flutamide may slightly improve hair loss in women, but finasteride does not work.
research Suprabasal Desmoglein 3 Expression in the Epidermis of Transgenic Mice Results in Hyperproliferation and Abnormal Differentiation
Overexpressing Dsg3 in mice skin causes excessive cell growth and abnormal skin development.
research The Chicken Frizzle Feather Is Due to an α-Keratin (KRT75) Mutation That Causes a Defective Rachis
A mutation in the KRT75 gene causes frizzle feathers in chickens.
research Protection Against Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
No treatment fully prevents hair loss from chemotherapy yet.
research Diagnosis and management of the dermatologic manifestations of the polycystic ovary syndrome
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment are important for skin problems in women with PCOS.

Mutant mice help researchers understand hair growth and related genetic factors.
research Alopecia Areata Update
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition often starting before age 20, with varied treatment success and a need for personalized treatment plans.
research Alopecia areata: Animal models illuminate autoimmune pathogenesis and novel immunotherapeutic strategies
Animal models have helped understand hair loss from alopecia areata and find new treatments.
research Safety of testosterone treatment in postmenopausal women
Testosterone therapy seems safe for postmenopausal women for a few years, but more research is needed for long-term effects.
research Diet and hair loss: effects of nutrient deficiency and supplement use
Correcting nutrient deficiencies may help with hair loss, but the benefits of supplements without a deficiency are uncertain and could be harmful.
research Simple and rapid method to isolate and culture follicular papillae from human scalp hair follicles
Researchers developed a quick and easy way to get and grow cells from the base of human hair follicles.
research Action of topical minoxidil in the bald stump-tailed macaque
Minoxidil promotes hair growth but stops working when discontinued.
research Regenerative Hair Waves in Aging Mice and Extra-Follicular Modulators Follistatin, Dkk1, and Sfrp4
Aging mice have slower hair regeneration due to changes in signal balance, but the environment, not stem cell loss, controls this, suggesting treatments could focus on environmental factors.
research Repurposing of approved cardiovascular drugs
Some heart drugs show promise for other conditions, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Treatments for Androgenetic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata
Minoxidil and finasteride treat hair loss; more research needed for other options.
research Human Hair Follicle Regeneration Following Amputation and Grafting into the Nude Mouse
Human hair follicles can regenerate after removal, but with low success rate.
research Physiology of the Hypothalamic Pituitary Gonadal Axis in the Male
The document explains how the male reproductive system works, its role in making testosterone, and how conditions like obesity can disrupt it, leading to low testosterone and fertility issues.
research Drug discovery for alopecia: gone today, hair tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research COVID-19 and endocrine and metabolic diseases. An updated statement from the European Society of Endocrinology

research Beta-caryophyllene enhances wound healing through multiple routes
Beta-caryophyllene helps improve wound healing in mice, especially in females.
research Female pattern hair loss: A clinical, pathophysiologic, and therapeutic review
No cure for female pattern hair loss, but various effective treatments exist.
research Meta-analysis identifies novel risk loci and yields systematic insights into the biology of male-pattern baldness
Researchers found 63 genes linked to male-pattern baldness, which could help in understanding its biology and developing new treatments.
research Control of Human Hair Growth by Neurotrophins: Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Inhibits Hair Shaft Elongation, Induces Catagen, and Stimulates Follicular Transforming Growth Factor β2 Expression
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) slows down hair growth and promotes hair follicle regression.
research DRUG‐ASSOCIATED ALOPECIA
Some drugs can cause hair loss, and stopping these drugs often leads to hair regrowth.
