Antiandrogen therapy helped increase hair growth in women with hormonal imbalances related to baldness.
research (Neuro-)endocrinology of epithelial hair follicle stem cells
Hormones and neuroendocrine factors control hair growth and color, and more research could lead to new hair treatment options.
research Alopecia in a Novel Mouse Model RCO3 Is Caused by mK6irs1 Deficiency
A missing mK6irs1 gene causes hair loss in mice.
research p53‐dependent transcriptional regulation of EDA2R and its involvement in chemotherapy‐induced hair loss
The study concludes that the EDA2R gene is activated by p53 during chemotherapy but is not necessary for chemotherapy-induced hair loss.
research 7 Regulation of androgen receptor and 5α-reductase in the skin of normal and hirsute women
The exact cause of increased 5α-reductase activity leading to hirsutism in women is still unknown.
research Hair corticosterone measurement in mouse models of type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus
New hair growth corticosterone levels are higher in diabetic mice, indicating long-term stress.
research PLASMA C19 STEROID SULPHATE LEVELS AND INDICES OF ANDROGEN BIOAVAILABILITY IN FEMALE PATTERN ANDROGENIC ALOPECIA
Women with female pattern hair loss have higher levels of certain androgens, suggesting increased androgen exposure to hair follicles.
research The acyl-CoA binding protein is required for normal epidermal barrier function in mice
ACBP is crucial for healthy skin in mice.
research Quercitrin Stimulates Hair Growth with Enhanced Expression of Growth Factors via Activation of MAPK/CREB Signaling Pathway
Quercitrin may help treat hair loss by promoting hair growth and improving cell health.
research Alopecia Areata
The document concludes that ongoing research using animal models is crucial for better understanding and treating Alopecia Areata.
research Alopecia androgénica masculina y factores de riesgo cardiovascular: estudio de casos y controles
Men with early-onset baldness have a higher chance of heart disease and clogged arteries.
research Contraceptive use in acne
Hormonal contraceptives can help treat acne by affecting sebum production and androgen levels.
research Human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells engineered to overexpress growth factors accelerate outcomes in hair growth
Modified stem cells from umbilical cord blood can make hair grow faster.
research Androgens modulate keratinocyte differentiation indirectly through enhancing growth factor production from dermal fibroblasts
Male hormones indirectly affect skin cell development by increasing growth factor levels from skin fibroblasts.
research Merkel cell carcinoma: updates in tumor biology, emerging therapies, and preclinical models
New therapies and trials are needed for Merkel cell carcinoma, a tough skin cancer.
research MANAGEMENT OF ENDOCRINE DISEASE Hyperandrogenic states in women: pitfalls in laboratory diagnosis
Diagnosing hyperandrogenism in women is complex and requires accurate testing methods and consideration of SHBG levels.
research Is prostate-specific antigen a potential new marker of androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome?
Prostate-specific antigen may be a new marker for excess male hormones in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research The influence of obesity on Androstenedione to Testosterone ratio in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and hyperandrogenemia
Obesity changes androgen levels in women with PCOS, leading to higher testosterone relative to androstenedione.
research Efficacy of metformin therapy in adolescent girls with androgen excess: relation to sex hormone–binding globulin and androgen receptor polymorphisms
Metformin works better for adolescent girls with PCOS who have certain genetic variations.
research Circulating sex hormone binding globulin levels are modified with intensive lifestyle intervention, but their changes did not independently predict diabetes risk in the Diabetes Prevention Program
Changes in SHBG levels don't predict diabetes risk reduction.
research Inhibitors of 5α-reductase-related side effects in patients seeking medical care for sexual dysfunction.
5α-reductase inhibitors may worsen sexual drive and spontaneous erections but don't worsen existing erectile or ejaculatory problems.
research The association between melasma and iron profile: a case-control study
Lower ferritin and serum iron levels may be linked to melasma.
research Oral Testosterone With and Without Concomitant Inhibition of 5α-Reductase by Dutasteride in Hypogonadal Men for 28 Days
Taking oral testosterone with or without dutasteride increases testosterone levels and could be an effective treatment for low testosterone.
research IGFBP5 Promotes Neuronal Apoptosis in a 6-OHDA-Toxicant Model of Parkinson’s Disease by Inhibiting the Sonic Hedgehog Signaling Pathway
IGFBP5 may be a potential target for Parkinson's treatment by reducing neuron death.
research A Novel Airway-Organoid Model Based on a Nano-Self-Assembling Peptide: Construction and Application in Adenovirus Infection Studies
A new lab-grown lung model helps study adenoviruses and test antiviral drugs.
research Strategies for improved hair binding: Keratin fractions and the impact of cationic substructures
Certain treatments can increase protein binding to natural hair but are less effective on permed hair.
research The role of antimullerian hormone in the hormonal workup of women with persistent acne
Women with persistent acne and high levels of antimullerian hormone are more likely to have polycystic ovarian syndrome.
research Pharmacokinetics of Modified Slow-Release Oral Testosterone Over 9 Days in Normal Men With Experimental Hypogonadism
The new oral testosterone pill normalized testosterone levels and lowered SHBG in men with low testosterone.
research Obesity and female androgenic alopecia: A cause and an effect?
