research Molecular basis of androgenetic alopecia: From androgen to paracrine mediators through dermal papilla
Male pattern baldness involves hormones and cell signals affecting hair growth.
research Potential adverse effects of long-term testosterone therapy
Long-term testosterone therapy can cause hormone suppression, affect prostate and heart health, and alter physical characteristics, but does not increase prostate cancer risk and needs more research for full risk assessment.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research Vertex balding, plasma insulin-like growth factor 1, and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3
Men with balding at age 45 had higher IGF-1 and lower IGFBP-3, suggesting these factors might be important in male pattern baldness.
research Evaluation of hair loss
Detailed patient history and physical exams are crucial for diagnosing hair loss.
research Effect of Ultraviolet Radiation, Smoking and Nutrition on Hair
Ultraviolet rays damage hair, smoking may cause hair loss, and good nutrition is important for hair health, but genetics mainly decide hair thickness.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
Male pattern baldness involves hormone-related hair thinning, shorter hair, and inflammation.
research Hormonal and reproductive factors and risk of upper gastrointestinal cancers in men: A prospective cohort study within the UK Biobank
Men with frontal male pattern baldness may have a higher risk of gastric cancer.
research Vertex balding, plasma insulin-like growth factor 1, and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3
Men with balding at age 45 had higher IGF-1 and lower IGFBP-3 levels, suggesting these factors might influence male pattern baldness.
research Advances in Knowledge of Androgens: How Intentional and Accidental Neurosteroid Changes Inform Us of Their Action and Role
Finasteride can have lasting negative effects on brain function and behavior by disrupting neurosteroid production.
research Antiandrogens and Androgen Inhibitors
Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues. Herbal remedies also have antiandrogenic effects but lack safety validation.
research GWASs Identify Genetic Loci Associated with Human Scalp Hair Whorl Direction
Certain genes influence the direction of hair whorls on the scalp.
research Animals in Dermatology
Using animal names for skin conditions helps with learning and memory.
research Higher Levels of Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory Protein and Type I 3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase in the Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Men with baldness have higher levels of specific proteins, suggesting local hormone production may play a role in hair loss.
research Body to scalp: Evolving trends in body hair transplantation
Body hair transplants can treat baldness but differ from scalp hair and need more research on long-term results and side effects.
research The Roles of Non-coding RNA in the Development and Regeneration of Hair Follicles: Current Status and Further Perspectives
Non-coding RNAs are important for hair growth and could lead to new hair loss treatments, but more research is needed.
research Postpartum Telogen Effluvium Unmasking Additional Latent Hair Loss Disorders.
Postpartum hair loss can reveal hidden hair loss conditions.
research Classifications of patterned hair loss: a review
Different types of hair loss need specific treatments, and while many classification systems exist, each has its flaws; more research is needed to refine these systems and treatments.
research Rare and common genetic determinants of metabolic individuality and their effects on human health
Genetic variations greatly affect individual metabolism and can impact health and disease risk.
research Extracellular vesicles in age-related diseases: disease pathogenesis, intervention, and biomarker
Extracellular vesicles can both worsen and help treat age-related diseases and are useful for early diagnosis.
research Evolution of hair transplantation
Direct hair implantation with special pens improves hair transplant precision and effectiveness.
research Biotin Is Required for the Zinc Homeostasis in the Skin
Biotin is important for keeping zinc levels balanced in the skin and its lack can cause hair loss.
research Social Perception of Male Faces. Individuals, Clusters, Dimensions
Hair loss affects attractiveness but can suggest intelligence, and face perception is complex, involving factors like age and smile.
research Xiaozhi Yufa decoction ameliorates androgenetic alopecia through inhibition of MAPK signaling and regulation of lipid metabolism
Xiaozhi Yufa decoction may help treat hair loss by improving hair growth and reducing inflammation.
research SnapshotDx Quiz: August 2019
