research Smad4-dependent desmoglein-4 expression contributes to hair follicle integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
research Synthesis and characterization of inclusion complex of the vasodilator drug minoxidil with β-cyclodextrin
Minoxidil mixed with β-cyclodextrin improves solubility and gradual release.
research Biomechanical properties of scalp flaps and their correlations to reconstructive and aesthetic surgery procedures
Scalp flaps are stiffer than skin from other body areas, which helps in planning reconstructive and cosmetic head surgeries.
research Insulin-like growth factor-1: roles in androgenetic alopecia
IGF-1 affects hair loss and could be a potential treatment.
research Chaos and antichaos in pathology
Understanding chaos and control mechanisms in disease can improve diagnosis and prediction in medicine.
research Nutritional Significance of Inositol and Biotin for the Pig
Biotin and inositol are crucial for pig health and growth.
research Antiandrogen Treatment with Spironolactone and Linestrenol Decreases Bone Mineral Density in Eumenorrhoeic Women with Androgen Excess
Taking spironolactone and linestrenol for androgen excess can lead to lower bone density in young women.
research Platelet‐rich plasma on female androgenetic alopecia: Tested on 10 patients
PRP injections increase hair density and diameter in female androgenetic alopecia patients.
research Cloning, expression and characterization of rhesus macaque types 1 and 2 5alpha-Reductase: evidence for mechanism-Based inhibition by finasteride
Finasteride inhibits enzyme activity in rhesus macaques, suggesting they're useful for evaluating similar drugs.
research Relationship Between Contact Time of Applied Dose and Percutaneous Absorption of Minoxidil From a Topical Solution
Longer contact time increases minoxidil absorption, but doesn't affect metabolism.
research The Pharmacokinetics of 2.5- to 10-mg Oral Doses of Minoxidil in Healthy Volunteers
This document studied minoxidil in healthy volunteers. Minoxidil is quickly absorbed and eliminated from the body.
research Electrochemical studies on minoxidil and its determination in tablets by differential-pulse polarography
Method measures minoxidil in tablets accurately and easily.
research Solubility of Minoxidil in Methanol, Ethanol, 1-Propanol, 2-Propanol, 1-Butanol, and Water from (278.15 to 333.15) K
Minoxidil dissolves best in methanol and least in water.
research Physical methods for topical skin drug delivery: concepts and applications
New physical methods like electrical currents, ultrasound, and microneedles show promise for improving drug delivery through the skin.
research Retinoid Metabolism Is Altered in Human and Mouse Cicatricial Alopecia
Altered retinoid metabolism in cicatricial alopecia suggests a balanced vitamin A diet may prevent the condition.
research The Androgen Receptor and Its Use in Biological Assays: Looking Toward Effect-Based Testing and Its Applications
Scientists have developed a new method to detect steroid abuse in athletes using cell-based tests, which could be the future of anti-doping methods.
research Pharmacokinetic parameters and mechanisms of inhibition of rat type 1 and 2 steroid 5α-reductases: determinants for different in vivo activities of GI198745 and finasteride in the rat 3 3Abbreviations: r5AR1, rat 5α-reductase 1; r5AR2, rat 5α-reductase 2; and DHT, dihydrotestosterone.
GI198745 is more potent and longer-lasting than finasteride, potentially better for treating hair loss.
research New Progesterone Esters as 5.ALPHA.-Reductase Inhibitors.
Some new progesterone derivatives are better at blocking testosterone conversion than a common drug.
research Bone mineral density in hyperandrogenic amenorrhoea
Women with hyperandrogenic amenorrhea have similar bone density to healthy women but lower than androgenized women without amenorrhea, and high DHEAS levels might affect bone density.
research The Influence of Various Parameters on the Success of Sensor-Controlled Scalp Cooling in Preventing Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Scalp cooling can prevent hair loss in 65% of chemotherapy patients, especially effective in breast cancer patients and certain chemotherapy types.
research Role of bulge epidermal stem cells and TSLP signaling in psoriasis
Blocking TSLP reduces skin inflammation and cell overgrowth in psoriasis.
research Alginate-Based Hydrogel Containing Minoxidil/Hydroxypropyl-β-Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complex for Topical Alopecia Treatment
A new gel containing minoxidil can treat hair loss effectively, potentially reducing side effects and improving treatment.
research Skin and glucocorticoids: effects of local skin glucocorticoid impairment on skin homeostasis
Local skin glucocorticoid production is crucial for healthy skin, and its disruption can lead to skin diseases.
research New ethanol and propylene glycol free gel formulations containing a minoxidil-methyl-β-cyclodextrin complex as promising tools for alopecia treatment
New gel formulas without ethanol and propylene glycol, containing a minoxidil-methyl-β-cyclodextrin complex, have been created for treating hair loss.
