research Male androgenetic alopecia
Male pattern baldness involves hormone-related hair thinning, shorter hair, and inflammation.
research 5α‐Reductase Inhibitors
Finasteride effectively treats enlarged prostate and male baldness, improves symptoms of hirsutism in women, but doesn't work for acne, and may delay prostate cancer progression with few side effects.
research Establishment of keratinocyte cell lines from human hair follicles
Scientists created keratinocyte cell lines from human hair that can differentiate similarly to normal skin cells, offering a new way to study skin biology and diseases.

P-cadherin is important for hair growth and health, and its problems can cause hair and skin disorders.
research Genetic ablation of myelin protein zero-like 3 in mice increases energy expenditure, improves glycemic control, and reduces hepatic lipid synthesis
Removing myelin protein zero-like 3 in mice leads to better metabolism and resistance to obesity.
research A Japanese case of ichthyosis follicularis with atrichia and photophobia syndrome with an MBTPS2 mutation
A Japanese patient with IFAP syndrome had a severe MBTPS2 gene mutation but showed milder symptoms than previously observed cases.
research A genomic approach to susceptibility and pathogenesis leads to identifying potential novel therapeutic targets in androgenetic alopecia
Genomic approach finds new possible treatments for hair loss.
research Discovery of Natural Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors
Natural herbal compounds might treat certain medical conditions by reducing DHT levels, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Proteomic analysis of balding and non-balding mesenchyme-derived dermal papilla cells from androgenetic alopecia patients using on-line two-dimensional reversed phase-reversed phase LC–MS/MS
Found different proteins in balding and non-balding cells, giving insight into hair loss causes.
research Capturing Stem Cell Behavior Using Intravital and Live Cell Microscopy

St. John's wort skin oil may increase skin damage risk during radiotherapy.
research Identification of functional circRNAs regulating ovarian follicle development in goats
circCFAP20DC helps goat ovarian cells grow, aiding follicle development.
research Tracing selection signatures in the pig genome gives evidence for selective pressures on a unique curly hair phenotype in Mangalitza
Selective breeding caused the unique curly hair in Mangalitza pigs.
research Factors regulating quiescent stem cells: insights from the intestine and other self-renewing tissues
The document concludes that stem cell inactivity is actively controlled and important for tissue repair and balance.
research Alopecia in a Viable Phospholipase C Delta 1 and Phospholipase C Delta 3 Double Mutant
Mutations in Plcd1 and Plcd3 together cause severe hair loss in mice.
research Androgen receptor CAG repeat length is associated with ovarian reserve but not with ovarian response
The length of CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene is linked to ovarian reserve but does not affect how the ovaries respond to stimulation.
research Keratin function and regulation in tissue homeostasis and pathogenesis
Keratin is crucial for keeping skin cells healthy and its changes can lead to diseases and affect cell behavior.
research Revisiting the significance of keratin expression in complex epithelia
Keratin genes change gradually during skin cell development and should be used carefully as biomarkers.
