Mushrooms have beneficial properties for skin and hair care products and have great potential for future cosmetic use.
research Targeted Skin Overexpression of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor in Mice Causes Epidermal Atrophy, Premature Skin Barrier Formation, Eye Abnormalities, and Alopecia
Overexpressing the mineralocorticoid receptor in mouse skin causes skin thinning, early skin barrier development, eye issues, and hair loss.
research Specific receptor detection by a functional keratinocyte growth factor-immunoglobulin chimera.
A new protein was made to detect specific skin cell growth receptors and worked in normal skin but not in skin cancer cells.
research The effects of finasteride on scalp skin and serum androgen levels in men with androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride effectively reduces hair loss by decreasing androgen levels.
research New Therapeutic Approach to the Hirsute Patient
Spironolactone can reduce hair growth in women with hirsutism.
research Potential targets in the discovery of new hair growth promoters for androgenic alopecia
The document concludes that targeting 5α-reductase, the androgen receptor, and hair growth genes, along with using compounds with anti-androgenic properties, could lead to more effective hair loss treatments.
research Sulfation of minoxidil by multiple human cytosolic sulfotransferases
Minoxidil breakdown varies by enzymes, affecting hair loss treatment effectiveness.
research Tritiated Thymidine: Effect of Decomposition by Self-Radiolysis on Specificity as a Tracer for DNA Synthesis
Decomposed tritiated thymidine is less accurate for DNA tracing, and hair changes can indicate malnutrition.
research Defects in mitochondrial DNA replication and oxidative damage in muscle of mtDNA mutator mice
Defective mitochondrial DNA replication causes aging symptoms and increased oxidative damage in mice.
research Increased Androgen Binding Capacity in Sebaceous Glands in Scalp of Male-pattern Baldness
Men with male-pattern baldness have more androgen receptors in their scalp's oil glands, which may contribute to hair loss.
research Preparation and characterization of Betasitosterol-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers for butter enrichment
Researchers made a special butter with added betasitosterol that could be healthier for the heart and stayed good for three months.
research Toward a Diagnostic Score in Cushing's Syndrome
The document suggests creating a validated score to diagnose Cushing's Syndrome and considers plasma steroid profiling as a simpler diagnostic method.
research 5α-Reductase activity in the human hair follicle concentrates in the dermal papilla
The enzyme that changes testosterone to a stronger form is mostly found in the part of the hair follicle called the dermal papilla.
research Minoxidil Skin Delivery from Nanoemulsion Formulations Containing Eucalyptol or Oleic Acid: Enhanced Diffusivity and Follicular Targeting
Eucalyptol and oleic acid in nanoemulsions improve minoxidil delivery to hair follicles, potentially enhancing hair loss treatment.
research Skin permeability and transdermal delivery route of 50-nm indomethacin-loaded PLGA nanoparticles
50-nm nanoparticles are better at penetrating skin and targeting hair follicles for drug delivery than 100-nm ones.
research Effect of topical application of raspberry ketone on dermal production of insulin-like growth factor-I in mice and on hair growth and skin elasticity in humans
Raspberry ketone may help grow hair and improve skin elasticity.
research Local and Systemic Reduction by Topical Finasteride or Flutamide of Hamster Flank Organ Size and Enzyme Activity
Topical finasteride and flutamide reduce gland size and enzyme activity, with flutamide being more potent, potentially treating acne, seborrhea, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia.
research The human gut chemical landscape predicts microbe-mediated biotransformation of foods and drugs
The study developed a tool to predict how gut microbes process foods and drugs, showing that similar compounds often share metabolic pathways and effects.
research Integral hair lipid in human hair follicle
Human hair has a protective lipid layer that can be damaged by moisture and treatments, affecting hair growth and health.
research Effects of Subchronic Finasteride Treatment and Withdrawal on Neuroactive Steroid Levels and Their Receptors in the Male Rat Brain
Finasteride treatment changes brain steroid levels and receptors, affecting brain function even after stopping treatment.
research In Vitro and In Vivo Skin Distribution of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Loaded Into Liquid Crystalline Nanoparticles
Chitosan-coated nanoparticles improve skin delivery of hair loss treatments with fewer side effects.
research HAIR-ROOT ADAPTATION TO MARASMUS IN ANDEAN INDIAN CHILDREN
Children with marasmus have more resting hair follicles and thinner, less pigmented hair, showing long-term malnutrition.
research The cascading pathogenic consequences of Sarcoptes scabiei infection that manifest in host disease
Sarcoptes scabiei infection causes significant health and behavior changes in wombats.
research Erbium–Yttrium–Aluminum–Garnet Laser Irradiation Ameliorates Skin Permeation and Follicular Delivery of Antialopecia Drugs
Using a special laser can improve how well hair loss treatments get into the skin and hair follicles.
research Enzyme Replacement Therapy Ameliorates Multiple Symptoms of Murine Homocystinuria
Enzyme replacement therapy improved multiple symptoms of homocystinuria in mice.
research Omega 3 fatty acid-enriched nanoemulsion of thiocolchicoside for transdermal delivery: formulation, characterization and absorption studies
