research Extracellular fraction of adipose tissue as an innovative regenerative approach for vitiligo treatment
Fat tissue extract may help treat vitiligo by reducing cell stress and promoting skin repair.
research Steroid 5α-reductase 2 deficiency leads to reduced dominance-related and impulse-control behaviors
Mice lacking steroid 5α-reductase 2 show less aggression and better impulse control.
research Oral administration of low-dose bisphenol A promotes proliferation of ventral prostate and upregulates prostaglandin D2 synthase expression in adult rats
Low doses of BPA can increase prostate growth and change hormone levels in adult rats.
research Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis: Identification of a U2HR mutation in the family from the original 1925 report
Researchers found a gene mutation responsible for a rare hair loss condition.
research An update on hair restoration therapy
Hair restoration techniques like follicular unit transplant surgery and follicular unit extraction are effective, with ideal graft placement density between 20-30 units per cm². Medications like Minoxidil and Finasteride can help maintain and regrow hair.
research Early embryonic exposure of freshwater gastropods to pharmaceutical 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors results in a surprising open-coiled “banana-shaped” shell
Certain drugs change freshwater snail shells to a "banana" shape.
research Niosomal delivery of pumpkin seed oil: development, characterisation, and physical stability
The pumpkin seed oil niosomes are promising for skin and hair treatments because they are stable and effectively deliver the oil.
research The intragenic mRNA-microRNA regulatory network during telogen-anagen hair follicle transition in the cashmere goat
The research found that a complex gene network, controlled by microRNAs, is important for hair growth in cashmere goats.
research Natural hair patterns
Surgeons need to understand natural hair patterns for better hair restoration results.
research Trichoscopy as an evaluation method for alopecia areata treatment: A comparative study
Trichoscopy is useful for diagnosing and monitoring alopecia areata treatment.
research Ppp2r2a Knockout Mice Reveal That Protein Phosphatase 2A Regulatory Subunit, PP2A-B55α, Is an Essential Regulator of Neuronal and Epidermal Embryonic Development
The PP2A-B55α protein is essential for brain and skin development in embryos.
research Mouse Hair Cycle Expression Dynamics Modeled as Coupled Mesenchymal and Epithelial Oscillators
The study concluded that hair growth in mice is regulated by a stable interaction between skin cell types, and disrupting this can cause hair loss.
research Hair coat characteristics in Friesian heifers in the Netherlands and Kenya : experimental data and a review of literature
Friesian heifers take about 18 months to adapt to Kenya's climate, with hair changes not strongly linked to weight gain.
research The patch assay reconstitutes mature hair follicles by culture-expanded human cells
The patch assay can create mature hair follicles from human cells and may help in hair loss treatments.
research Hair Growth Promoting Effect of Dicerocaryum senecioides Phytochemicals
Chemicals from the plant Dicerocaryum senecioides were found to safely speed up and increase hair growth in mice.
research Flutamide-Loaded Zein Nanocapsule Hydrogel, a Promising Dermal Delivery System for Pilosebaceous Unit Disorders
The flutamide-loaded hydrogel is a promising, skin-friendly treatment for acne and hair loss, potentially requiring less frequent application.
research Molecular functional analyses revealed essential roles of HSP90 and lamin A/C in growth, migration, and self-aggregation of dermal papilla cells
HSP90 and lamin A/C are crucial for hair growth and could be targets for treating hair loss.
research Neonatal allopregnanolone or finasteride administration modifies hippocampal K+ Cl− co-transporter expression during early development in male rats
Allopregnanolone increases KCC2 expression in baby male rats' brains, while finasteride doesn't affect it.
research Whole exome sequencing in Alopecia Areata identifies rare variants in KRT82
Rare changes in the KRT82 gene are linked to a higher risk of Alopecia Areata.
research Effect of Miscanthus sinensis var. purpurascens Flower Extract on Proliferation and Molecular Regulation in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and Stressed C57BL/6 Mice
Miscanthus sinensis flower extract may help promote hair growth and prevent hair loss.
research A simple and rapid model for hair-follicle regeneration in the nude mouse
A new model for hair regeneration in mice was created in 2015, which is faster and less invasive than the old method, producing normal hairs in about 21 days.
research Androgenic Alopecia
Androgenic Alopecia, a common hair loss condition, can be effectively treated with finasteride and other treatments.
research In vivo evaluation of insect wax for hair growth potential
Insect wax, especially its policosanol content, may help hair regrow by changing hair follicle phases and increasing nutrient supply.
