research Molecular mechanisms of androgenetic alopecia
AGA causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to DHT binding, and can be treated with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Androgenetic Alopecia in Women
Androgenetic alopecia in women needs more research and better management strategies.
research Biology of the wool follicle: an excursion into a unique tissue interaction system waiting to be re‐discovered
The article concludes that the wool follicle is a valuable model for studying tissue interactions and has potential for genetic improvements in wool production.
research Changes in Expression and Function of Extrasynaptic GABAAReceptors in the Rat Hippocampus during Pregnancy and after Delivery
Pregnancy increases certain GABAA receptors in rat brains, influenced by steroid levels.
research Prevascularization of dermal substitutes with adipose tissue-derived microvascular fragments enhances early skin grafting
Using adipose tissue-derived fragments improves early skin graft success.
research Genetics and other factors in the aetiology of female pattern hair loss
Female pattern hair loss has unclear causes, possibly involving genetics, hormones, and environment, and needs better treatments.
research Reflections on how wound healing-promoting effects of the hair follicle can be translated into clinical practice
Hair follicles can help wounds heal faster and this knowledge could be used to treat chronic skin ulcers, with a potential use of a special stem cell hydrogel to enhance healing.
research Hair through the female life cycle
Women's hair generally gets thinner and less dense starting in their mid-thirties, with hair loss becoming more common as they age due to both genetics and environment.
research Whole-Cell Bioprocessing of Human Fetal Cells for Tissue Engineering of Skin
Fetal cells could improve skin repair with minimal scarring and are a potential ready-to-use solution for tissue engineering.
research <p>Asian Hair: A Review of Structures, Properties, and Distinctive Disorders</p>
Asian hair is generally straight and thick, with unique disorders and properties, and more research is needed to understand it fully.
research Distribution and Localization of Hydrophobic and Ionic Chemical Groups at the Surface of Bleached Human Hair Fibers
Bleaching hair removes its protective top layer and exposes more hydrophilic groups, changing its chemical surface and affecting how it interacts with products.
research Traditional Anticoagulants and Hair Loss: A Role for Direct Oral Anticoagulants? A Review of the Literature
Some new oral anticoagulants may also cause hair loss and might not be better than traditional ones for preventing hair loss.
research Stem Cell-Based Hair Cell Regeneration and Therapy in the Inner Ear
Stem cell therapy could help regenerate inner ear hair cells to treat hearing loss.
research Exploring pericyte and cardiac stem cell secretome unveils new tactics for drug discovery
New drugs for heart disease may be developed from molecules secreted by stem cells.
research Cicatricial Alopecia Research Foundation meeting, May 2016: Progress towards the diagnosis, treatment and cure of primary cicatricial alopecias
The meeting focused on understanding, diagnosing, and finding treatments for irreversible hair loss diseases.
research The combination of overweight and smoking increases the severity of androgenetic alopecia
Overweight smokers have worse hair loss.
research Use of Hair Grafting in Scar Camouflage
Hair grafting is a key method for improving scars, especially in areas with hair, by transplanting hair to hide the scar while maintaining its original characteristics.
research Alopecia areata incognita: True or false?
The authors suggest that a new type of hair loss exists, which is different from alopecia areata.
research AIRMESS – Academy of International Regenerative Medicine & Surgery Societies: recommendations in the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP), autologous stem cell-based therapy (ASC-BT) in androgenetic alopecia and wound healing
Use PRP and ASC-BT for hair loss and wound healing, but more research needed.
research A comparison of transcriptomic patterns measured in the skin of Chinese fine and coarse wool sheep breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research Female pattern hair loss: A comprehensive review
FPHL is common in women, influenced by genetics and hormones, and can be treated with medications, laser therapy, or hair transplantation.
research Targets to treat androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome
The conclusion is that while oral contraceptive pills are effective for PCOS-related high androgen levels, new treatments with fewer side effects are needed.
research How do we investigate haematuria and what role has finasteride?
Finasteride can treat prostatic haematuria, but its use is controversial.
research Fabrication of astaxanthin-loaded electrospun nanofiber-based mucoadhesive patches with water‐insoluble backing for the treatment of oral premalignant lesions
The new patch for treating mouth sores releases medicine slowly, sticks well, and helps healing without the side effects of current creams.
research Androgenetic alopecia: the role of inflammation and Demodex
Inflammation and Demodex mites might contribute to hair loss, and targeting them could help treat it.
research A SIMPLIFIED APPROACH TO THE DIAGNOSIS OF ALOPECIA
A simplified method was introduced to diagnose most hair loss types by examining the patient's history and scalp, with some cases needing further tests.
