research 5-α-Reductase type 2 deficiency: is there a genotype-phenotype correlation? A review
No consistent link between genotype and phenotype in 5-α-Reductase type 2 deficiency.
research It's not all traction: the pseudo ‘fringe sign’ in frontal fibrosing alopecia
The pseudo 'fringe sign' can also appear in frontal fibrosing alopecia, not just in traction alopecia, showing that this condition may be more common than thought.
research Cyclophosphamide: As bad as its reputation? Long-term single centre experience of cyclophosphamide side effects in the treatment of systemic autoimmune diseases
Cyclophosphamide has serious side effects, but long-term follow-up can help manage risks.
research Hair loss and herbs for treatment
Herbs can potentially treat hair loss by inhibiting a key enzyme and promoting hair growth, and deficiencies in zinc, biotin, and iron are linked to hair loss.
research Tuning Wnt Signals for More or Fewer Hairs
Changing Wnt signaling can lead to more or less hair growth and might help treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research Ephrins Negatively Regulate Cell Proliferation in the Epidermis and Hair Follicle
Ephrins slow down skin and hair follicle cell growth.
research Anabolic-androgenic steroids and cardiovascular risk
Using steroids can increase the risk of heart problems.
research A Clinical and Biological Guide for Understanding Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia and Its Prevention
Scalp cooling can help prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss with a 50-90% success rate and is safe for patients.
research Aging in hair follicle stem cells and niche microenvironment
Aging in hair follicle stem cells leads to hair graying, thinning, and loss.
research TCL1 transgenic mouse model as a tool for the study of therapeutic targets and microenvironment in human B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia
The TCL1 transgenic mouse model is useful for understanding human B-cell leukemia and testing new treatments.
research The prolactin receptor as a therapeutic target in human diseases: browsing new potential indications
Blocking the prolactin receptor might help treat various diseases, but more research is needed.
research Hormonal changes in menopause: do they contribute to a ‘midlife hair crisis’ in women?
Menopause-related hormonal changes affect hair but are not the only cause of hair changes in middle-aged women.
research Clinical, histopathological and immunological characteristics of exfoliative cutaneous lupus erythematosus in 25 German short‐haired pointers
A disease causing skin issues in young adult German short-haired pointers is hereditary, with most affected dogs not responding to treatment.
research Spironolactone: An Anti-androgenic and Anti-hypertensive Drug That May Provide Protection Against the Novel Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) Induced Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) in COVID-19
Spironolactone might help protect against severe lung problems in COVID-19 patients.
research Macrophages Promote Wound-Induced Hair Follicle Regeneration in a CX3CR1- and TGF-β1–Dependent Manner
Macrophages help hair growth after injury through CX3CR1 and TGF-β1.
research Treatment of permanent chemotherapy-induced alopecia with low dose oral minoxidil
Low dose oral minoxidil helps regrow hair in permanent chemotherapy-induced alopecia.
research Epigenetic control of skin and hair regeneration after wounding
Skin and hair can regenerate after injury due to changes in gene activity, with potential links to how cancer spreads. Future research should focus on how new hair follicles form and the processes that trigger their creation.
research A distinct gene close to the hairless locus on chromosome 8p underlies hereditary Marie Unna type hypotrichosis in a German family
A different gene near the hairless gene on chromosome 8p21 causes a rare hair loss condition in a German family.
research Destruction of the arrector pili muscle and fat infiltration in androgenic alopecia
Hair loss in male pattern baldness involves muscle degeneration and increased scalp fat.
research A Small Molecule Inhibitor Partitions Two Distinct Pathways for Trafficking of Tonoplast Intrinsic Proteins in Arabidopsis
Two distinct pathways direct proteins to vacuoles in Arabidopsis, affecting root hair growth and protein targeting.
research Treatment strategies for alopecia
Some treatments work for common baldness, but there's less evidence for other hair loss types, and more research is needed.
research Human Hair Follicle Stem/Progenitor Cells Express Hypoxia Markers
Human hair follicle stem cells show signs of low oxygen levels, which may be important for hair growth and preventing baldness.
research Understanding and Addressing Hair Disorders in Transgender Individuals
Hormone therapy affects hair growth in transgender individuals, with testosterone potentially causing hair loss in trans men and estrogen reducing facial/body hair in trans women; treatment options vary.
research Loss of Keratin K2 Expression Causes Aberrant Aggregation of K10, Hyperkeratosis, and Inflammation
Loss of keratin K2 causes skin problems and inflammation.
research Finasteride Treatment Inhibits Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis in Male Mice
Finasteride reduces new brain cells in male mice, possibly causing depression.
research Prevalence of metabolic syndrome and its components among men with and without clinical benign prostatic hyperplasia: a large, cross-sectional, UK epidemiological study
Men with benign prostatic hyperplasia are more likely to have metabolic syndrome than those without it.
research Cardiovascular risk factors and events in women with androgen excess
Women with androgen excess, especially those with PCOS, have a much higher risk of heart disease and stroke.
