Adiponectin boosts lipid production in skin cells, potentially helping treat skin conditions with low sebum.
research Medical comorbidities in patients with lichen planopilaris, a retrospective case–control study
People with Lichen Planopilaris are more likely to have autoimmune diseases, especially Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, and less likely to have diabetes and some other common conditions.
research Exploring the neural mechanisms of finasteride: a proteomic analysis in the nucleus accumbens
Finasteride affects brain processes related to neurotransmission and metabolism, potentially helping with neuropsychiatric conditions.
research Mycophenolate Antagonizes IFN-γ-Induced Catagen-Like Changes via β-Catenin Activation in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and Hair Follicles
Mycophenolate helps reverse hair loss effects caused by IFN-γ by activating a key hair growth pathway.
research Evaluation of serum level of omentin‐1 in females with hirsutism
Women with hirsutism have different levels of omentin-1, which may be linked to the condition and its genetic aspects.
research Proceedings of the RAMI Intern Section Meeting, 18th January 2014
The meeting discussed medical findings, including benefits of certain treatments for cancer and heart conditions, and highlighted issues like poor adherence to preventive measures and skill gaps among interns.
research Hair Follicle Development of Rex Rabbits Is Regulated Seasonally by Wnt10b/β-Catenin, TGFβ-BMP, IGF1, and EGF Signaling Pathways
Winter provides the best fur quality for Rex rabbits due to seasonal changes in specific signaling pathways.
research Associated comorbidities in pediatric patients with alopecia areata
Most kids with alopecia areata have other health issues, often allergies or skin conditions.
research Dermoscopy — 4th Conference of the Section of Dermoscopy and Other Skin Imaging Techniques (DiTOS) of the Polish Dermatological Society — Abstracts
Hair loss can be caused by cancer, treatments, or skin conditions, and trichoscopy helps diagnose it.
research Efficacy of oral afoxolaner (NexGard®) against natural infestations with Heterodoxus spiniger (Phthiraptera: Boopiidae) in dogs under field conditions
NexGard® and Frontline Combo® are both 100% effective at eliminating lice in dogs.
research The Itchy Scalp
Up to half of people experience itchy scalp, often due to skin conditions like seborrheic dermatitis or psoriasis, and treatments vary based on the specific cause.
research Modelling androgen synthesis and action during human sexual differentiation
Male sexual differentiation is regulated independently, while female differentiation occurs in an androgenic environment, affecting conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Evaluation of Retinal Layers and Choroidal Structures Using Optical Coherence Tomography in Alopecia Areata
People with alopecia areata have similar retinal structures but thicker choroidal regions compared to those without the condition.
research Metabolic and pathologic profiles of human LSS deficiency recapitulated in mice
Mice with LSS deficiency showed hair loss and cataracts, similar to humans, and can help in understanding and treating this condition.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases
The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.
research Dupilumab: A Review of Present Indications and Off-Label Uses
Dupilumab is being tested for many new skin, respiratory, and gastrointestinal conditions.
research An investigation of vitamin D status in alopecia areata
People with alopecia areata often have lower vitamin D levels and more inflammation, suggesting vitamin D might be involved in the condition.
research Expanding Clinical Indications of Mechanically Isolated Stromal Vascular Fraction: A Systematic Review
The regenerative solution, tSVF, is a safe and effective treatment for various conditions like aged skin, scars, wounds, and more, but more research is needed to find the best way to use it.
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.
