Low-level light therapy is FDA-approved for male pattern hair loss, increases hair count and strength, and is considered safe for use.
research Promoted Growth of Murine Hair Follicles by Controlled Release of Growth Factors from Biodegradable Hydrogel
Using hydrogels to slowly release growth factors can effectively boost hair growth in mice.
research The role of glypican-4, thyroid stimulating hormone, and reproductive hormones in polycystic ovary syndrome progress among Iraqi women
Glypican-4 may help indicate insulin sensitivity and lipid issues in women with PCOS.
research Volatile signalling by sesquiterpenes from ectomycorrhizal fungi reprogrammes root architecture
Fungi-produced compounds can change plant root growth.
research FGF5 is a crucial regulator of hair length in humans
FGF5 gene mutations cause unusually long eyelashes by affecting hair growth regulation.
research Stem cell-derived motor neurons from spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy patients
The study suggests that motor neurons created from stem cells of patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy show signs of the disease, including changes in protein levels and cell functions.
research CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated loss of FGF5 function increases wool staple length in sheep
Disabling the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to longer wool.
research Hair growth promoting activity of cedrol isolated from the leaves of Platycladus orientalis
Cedrol from Platycladus orientalis leaves may promote hair growth effectively, especially in female mice.
research Negative Impact of Testosterone Deficiency and 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Therapy on Metabolic and Sexual Function in Men
Low testosterone and 5α-reductase inhibitors can harm men's metabolic and sexual health; testosterone therapy may help, but discussing 5α-RIs' side effects is important.
research Genetic Variants Associated with Hyperandrogenemia in PCOS Pathophysiology
Certain genetic variations are linked to increased androgen levels in PCOS, but more research is needed to understand these connections fully.
research Androgen Levels and Body Size Are Associated with Directional as Well as Fluctuating Asymmetry Patterns in Adult !Kung San and Kavango Males from Northern Namibia
Higher androgen levels are linked to less asymmetry in !Kung San males.
research Modern artificial hair implantation: a pilot study of 10 patients
Artificial hair implantation is generally safe and can restore hair when other treatments fail, but some patients may experience side effects.
research Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy As a Derivative of Stereotactic Radiosurgery: Clinically Independent But With Enduring Common Themes
Stereotactic body radiation therapy and radiosurgery are advanced, precise treatments that target tumors while protecting healthy tissue.
research Resequencing and Signatures of Selective Scans Point to Candidate Genetic Variants for Hair Length Traits in Long-Haired and Normal-Haired Tianzhu White Yak
The research found specific genes that may cause longer hair in Tianzhu White Yak.
research Association between genetically predicted leukocyte telomere length and non-scarring alopecia: A two-sample Mendelian randomization study
Shorter telomeres in white blood cells may increase the risk of a common type of hair loss.
research New Criteria for the Clinical Diagnosis of Hyperandrogenism in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and the Risk of Overdiagnosis
Using only hyperandrogenism to diagnose PCOS can lead to overdiagnosis.
research Biocompatibility of KAPs-Depleted Residual Hair
KAP-depleted hair causes less immune response and is more biocompatible for implants.
research Pattern of body fat distribution in patients of PCOS using DEXA-based indices
PCOS patients have more central body fat, which can be effectively measured using DEXA.
research The evaluation of IL-4 intron 3 VNTR and TNF-α (rs1799964) gene polymorphisms in Egyptian patients with Alopecia Areata: a case-control study
These specific gene polymorphisms are not linked to Alopecia Areata in Egyptians.
research Main Plenary Sessions: Summaries of Papers
UK medical students lack dermatology education, liver biopsy patients with risk factors show more fibrosis, and certain fungi resist drugs due to melanin; genetics may influence female hair loss.
research 9 Role of 5α-reductase in health and disease
5α-reductase is essential for male sexual development and its inhibitors have potential in treating various conditions related to hormone action.
research Bioengineering a 3D integumentary organ system from iPS cells using an in vivo transplantation model
Researchers created a fully functional, bioengineered skin system with hair from stem cells that successfully integrated when transplanted into mice.
