IGF-1 affects hair loss and could be a potential treatment.
research Revisiting hyper- and hypo-androgenism by tandem mass spectrometry
The document concludes that using LC-MS/MS for measuring androgens is more accurate than older methods, but it needs careful validation and standardized references to be most effective.
research DHT deficiency perturbs the integrity of the rat seminiferous epithelium by disrupting tight and adherens junctions
DHT deficiency can disrupt cell connections in rat testes, possibly affecting fertility.

Hepatitis C virus can cause skin diseases and dermatologists play a crucial role in identifying these conditions.
research Hair follicle characteristics and fibre production in South American camelids
South American camelids should be sheared early, fleece type affects fiber quality, and the S/P follicle ratio doesn't distinguish between Bolivian llama genotypes.
research Interaction between stem cell factor and endothelin-1: effects on melanogenesis in human skin xenografts
SCF and ET-1 together significantly increase skin pigmentation and melanin production.
research A pilot study evaluating the efficacy of topically applied niacin derivatives for treatment of female pattern alopecia
Niacin derivatives may increase hair fullness in women with hair loss.
research Expression Profiling and Cellular Localization of Genes Associated with the Hair Cycle Induced by Wax Depilation
Researchers found new genes involved in hair growth, which could help develop new hair treatments.
research The mRNA for Protease Nexin-1 is Expressed in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and its Level is Affected by Androgen
Human skin cells contain Protease Nexin-1, and male hormones can decrease its levels, potentially affecting hair growth.
research Minoxidil specifically decreases the expression of lysine hydroxylase in cultured human skin fibroblasts
Minoxidil reduces lysine hydroxylase in skin cells.
research Nonvascular Complications of Injectable Fillers—Prevention and Management
Understanding facial anatomy and early management are key to preventing and treating complications from injectable fillers.
research Breakdown of Immune Tolerance in AIRE-Deficient Rats Induces a Severe Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathy–Candidiasis–Ectodermal Dystrophy–like Autoimmune Disease
