research Alopecia areata – hyperactivity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis is a myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
research Possible intermediary role of ghrelin in seborrhea
The conclusion suggests that the hormone ghrelin might link acid reflux to oily skin.

research Erythroid Differentiation Regulator 1 as a Novel Biomarker for Hair Loss Disorders
Erdr1 could be a new marker for diagnosing hair loss.
research Hirsutism
Excessive hair growth in women, often from high androgen levels, is usually caused by PCOS, and can be treated with hair removal, medication, and possibly weight loss.
research Long-term opioid ADR management in cancer patients
Many medications can cause hair loss or excessive hair growth, which is usually reversible after stopping the drug.
research Cortisol Enhances the Expression of mac25/Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Protein-Related Protein-1 in Cultured Osteoblasts**This work was supported by NIDDK Grant DK-45227 and a scholarship (to R.C.P.) from Fundacao Coordenacao de Aperfeicoa mento de Pessoal de Nivel Superior (CAPES), Universidade de Sao Paulo (Sao Paulo, Brazil).

research Complications of Cushing's syndrome: state of the art
Cushing's syndrome can cause serious health problems, and early treatment is crucial, but some issues may remain after treatment.
research Indications for a brain‐hair follicle axis: inhibition of keratinocyte proliferation and up‐regulation of keratinocyte apoptosis in telogen hair follicles by stress and substance P
Stress can cause hair loss by negatively affecting hair follicles and this effect might be reversed with specific treatments.
research EFFECT OF "AMINOPTERIN" ON EPITHELIAL TISSUES
Aminopterin strongly suppresses epithelial tissues and can treat certain skin conditions but has significant side effects.
research ς1Receptor-Related Neuroactive Steroids Modulate Cocaine-Induced Reward
Neuroactive steroids affect cocaine's rewarding effects through the ς1 receptor.
research Regulated Proenkephalin Expression in Human Skin and Cultured Skin Cells
Human skin cells produce proenkephalin, which changes with environmental factors and skin diseases.
research Acne and Systemic Disease
Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in acne, which can be a symptom of systemic diseases like PCOS and may require targeted treatment.
research Mast cell deficient and neurokinin-1 receptor knockout mice are protected from stress-induced hair growth inhibition
Certain mice without specific receptors or mast cells don't lose hair from stress.
research Profiling the Response of Human Hair Follicles to Ultraviolet Radiation

research Adrenal Gland Disease in Ferrets
Adrenal gland disease is common in ferrets and causes hair loss and other symptoms.
research Helpful diagnostic markers of steroidogenesis for defining hyperandrogenemia in hirsute women
