research 9 Role of 5α-reductase in health and disease
5α-reductase is essential for male sexual development and its inhibitors have potential in treating various conditions related to hormone action.
research Pharmacology of antiandrogens
Antiandrogens affect androgen-dependent body functions and are used for various medical conditions, with some risks like fetus feminization, but new forms like 17α-propylmesterolone show promise for acne without systemic effects.
research Arabidopsis CNGC14 Mediates Calcium Influx Required for Tip Growth in Root Hairs
CNGC14 is crucial for calcium entry needed for root hair growth in plants.
research Female pattern hair loss
FPHL is a common, age-related, genetic hair loss with unclear causes and limited treatment options.
research Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) transactivates Dlx3 through Smad1 and Smad4: alternative mode for Dlx3 induction in mouse keratinocytes
BMP-2 activates the Dlx3 gene in mouse skin cells, important for hair and skin development.
research Bioengineering a 3D integumentary organ system from iPS cells using an in vivo transplantation model
Researchers created a fully functional, bioengineered skin system with hair from stem cells that successfully integrated when transplanted into mice.
research Role of Androgen in Mesenchymal Epithelial Interactions in Human Hair Follicle
Androgens promote beard growth but cause hair loss in androgenetic alopecia, with TGF-β1 as a potential treatment target.
research THE TREATMENT OF HIRSUTISM WITH A COMBINATION OF DESOGESTREL AND ETHINYL OESTRADIOL
A combination of desogestrel and ethinyl oestradiol effectively reduces hair growth in hirsute women.
research Androgen metabolism in hirsute patients treated with cyproterone acetate

research Female Hirsutism: Pathophysiological Considerations and Therapeutic Implications*
Excessive hair growth in women often has no known cause and is not linked to race or other hormonal symptoms.
research BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF ANTIANDROGENS
Antiandrogens may help treat conditions like excessive hair growth, prostate tumors, male baldness, and acne by blocking male hormone effects.
research Interaction between dermal papilla cells and follicular epithelial cells in vitro: effect of androgen.
Testosterone helps beard and axillary hair cells grow by releasing growth factors from dermal papilla cells.
research Defects in Androgen Biosynthesis Causing 46,XY Disorders of Sexual Development
Genetic defects in androgen production are linked to male developmental disorders and are improving treatment understanding.
research The Enzymic Derivation of Citrulline Residues from Arginine Residues In Situ during the Biosynthesis of Hair Proteins that are Cross-Linked by Isopeptide Bonds
Hair follicles have an enzyme that converts arginine to citrulline in proteins.
research The Molecular Mechanism Underlying the Proliferating and Preconditioning Effect of Vitamin C on Adipose-Derived Stem Cells
Vitamin C helps adipose-derived stem cells grow and may support hair growth.
research Endocrine controls of primary adult human stem cell biology: Thyroid hormones stimulate keratin 15 expression, apoptosis, and differentiation in human hair follicle epithelial stem cells in situ and in vitro
Thyroid hormones affect hair follicle stem cells by promoting differentiation and reducing growth.
research Melatonin vitamin C-based nanovesicles for treatment of androgenic alopecia: Design, characterization and clinical appraisal
Melatonin vitamin C-based nanovesicles improved hair growth and reduced hair loss in androgenic alopecia patients.
