research Feather on the Cap of Medicine
Feathers are useful for researching growth, regeneration, and the effects of treatments like chemotherapy on hair loss.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Percutaneous Drug Delivery to the Hair Follicle
Hair follicles could be used for targeted drug delivery, with liposomal systems showing promise for this method.
research Hair loss in women
The document concludes that hair loss in women is complex, often linked to aging, health conditions, and nutritional deficiencies, and emotional impacts should not be underestimated.
research Microarray analysis reveals distinct RNA expression profiles in endothelial progenitor cells exposed to pro-inflammatory environment or oxidized LDL
Different cells affect hair follicle blood vessels, endothelial cells react differently to inflammation and oxidized fats, and prasugrel better protects heart vessels during a procedure than clopidogrel.
research Effects of prasugrel versus clopidogrel on coronary microvascular function in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention: A randomized double-blind study
Prasugrel is better than clopidogrel at preventing heart damage and improving blood flow in small heart vessels during heart artery procedures.
research Therapeutic and skincare products used in hirsutism and hypertrichosis
Prescription tablets treat hirsutism, while over-the-counter foams treat hypertrichosis.
research New drugs: Iobenguane sulfate
Lifestyle changes are more effective than metformin in reducing type 2 diabetes risk in women with PCOS.
research Hormonal Treatment Strategies Tailored to Non-Binary Transgender Individuals
Non-binary transgender individuals need personalized hormonal treatments for better well-being and quality of life.
research The Effects of Metformin, Ethinyl Estradiol/Cyproterone Acetate, and Metformin Ethinyl Estradiol/Cyproterone Acetate Combination Therapy on Carotid Artery Intima-media Thickness in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Metformin improves early signs of heart disease in women with PCOS and raises apelin levels, but doesn't significantly change artery thickness.
research Effect of Evening Primrose Oil on Hyperandrogenism Markers in Women With Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Evening primrose oil significantly improves hormone levels and reduces BMI and cholesterol in women with PCOS.
research Inositol versus metformin administration in polycystic ovarian disease patients
Inositol was more effective than metformin in improving menstrual cycles and pregnancy rates in PCOS patients.
research 699 Effect of Prostaglandin D 2 on hair follicle growth and its impact on hair follicle stem/progenitor cells
Blocking Prostaglandin D₂ may help treat hair loss.
research ς1Receptor-Related Neuroactive Steroids Modulate Cocaine-Induced Reward
Neuroactive steroids affect cocaine's rewarding effects through the ς1 receptor.
research Hormonal Therapies in Cosmetic Dermatology: Mechanisms, Clinical Applications, and Future Perspectives
Hormonal therapies can improve skin issues by adjusting hormone levels, with future advancements promising better results.
research Stromal Cells of the Human Postmenopausal Ovary Display a Distinctive Biochemical and Molecular Phenotype
Postmenopausal ovary stromal cells have a unique makeup and limited steroid production, suggesting androgens come from the adrenal gland.
research Management of Hirsutism
Antiandrogens, particularly flutamide and CPA, are most effective for treating hirsutism, with long-term use needed for best results.
research Encapsulation of finasteride with native and modified γ-cyclodextrins. Extensive characterization of the complexes
Finasteride's solubility improves with native y-CDs, enhancing hair loss treatment and reducing side effects.
research Physiopathological role of the enzymatic complex 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase in the generation of progesterone and testosterone neuroactive metabolites
The enzymes 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase help create brain-active substances from progesterone and testosterone, which could be used for treatment, but more research is needed to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
research Targeting Pharmacological and Nanotechnology Based Therapeutics for Management of Hirsutism: A Comprehensive State-of-the-Art
New treatments for excessive hair growth in women, including advanced drugs and nanotechnology, show promise for better results.
research Anti-Androgen Treatment of Hirsute Women: A Study on Stress Responses
The treatment reduced hair growth and testosterone in women with excess hair and had some effects on stress responses.
research Noncontraceptive Use of Contraceptive Agents
Contraceptive agents help with menstrual issues, acne, and other health conditions in teens.
research A review of hormonal therapy for female pattern (androgenic) alopecia - eScholarship
