research Expression of type 1 5α-reductase and metabolism of testosterone in reconstructed human epidermis (SkinEthic®): a new model for screening skin-targeted androgen modulators
The study created a new method to test drugs that affect hormone processing in skin.
research Transglutaminase-3 Enzyme: A Putative Actor in Human Hair Shaft Scaffolding?
TGase 3 helps build hair structure by forming strong bonds between proteins.
research The use of liposomes in the topical application of steroids
Liposomes are not better than acetone for applying DHT on skin.
research 726 The Wnt-inhibitor Dkk4 is required for primary hair follicle induction and patterning
Dkk4 is necessary for the initial development and arrangement of hair follicles.
research MALE PSEUDOHERMAPHRODITISM DUE TO 17β-HYDROXYSTEROID DEHYDROGENASE DEFICIENCY: STUDIES ON THE NATURAL HISTORY OF THE DEFECT AND EFFECT OF ANDROGENS ON GENDER ROLE
Masculinization in affected individuals occurs gradually after puberty due to hormone changes.
research Sphingolipid Metabolites Profiling in Hair Growth
DHCer levels in hair could be a biomarker for alopecia progression.
research Bioengineered Exosomal Hair Growth Factors Complex in Upregulating HFDPCs, Downregulating IL-6, IL-1β in Hair Growth
The treatment effectively reduces hair loss and improves hair growth with minimal side effects.
research Growth retardation and hair loss in transgenic mice overexpressing human H-ferritin gene
Overexpressing the human H-ferritin gene in mice causes mild growth delay and temporary hair loss.
research Serum levels of testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in females with acne and/or female pattern hair loss
No strong link between testosterone or DHEAS levels and acne or hair loss in females.
research Intracrine testosterone activation in human pancreatic β cells stimulates insulin secretion.
Testosterone in our bodies helps increase insulin secretion from the pancreas.
research Δ5-3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Activity in Sebaceous Glands of Scalp in Male-Pattern Baldness
research The Mineralization of Hair Follicle Tissue
Mineral deposits form in hair follicles after skin injury, faster in rats given DHT.
research Androgenetic Alopecia Incidence in Transgender and Gender Diverse Populations: A Retrospective Comparative Cohort Study
Transgender patients on masculinizing hormones have higher hair loss rates than cisgender women.
research 702 dsRNA induces ectopic KRT9 expression via WNT/β-catenin-mediated signaling
Double-stranded RNA activates a pathway that causes a skin protein to be expressed in the wrong place.
research Vitamin D metabolism and function in the skin
Skin cells produce and activate vitamin D, which regulates skin functions and supports hair growth.
research 562 Neuroendocrinology of human scalp hair follicles: Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) stimulates hair growth and controls a fully functional intrafollicular hypothalamic-pituitary-somatotropic (HPS) signaling axis
Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) boosts hair growth and human scalp hair follicles have their own growth hormone system.
research Nanomilled Oral Testosterone Plus Dutasteride Effectively Normalizes Serum Testosterone in Normal Men With Induced Hypogonadism
A combination of nanomilled oral testosterone and dutasteride normalized testosterone levels in men with low testosterone and is safe for short-term use.
research Cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside suppresses DHT-induced dermal papilla cell senescence by modulating p38-dependent ER-mitochondria contacts
Cyanidin 3-O-arabinoside may help treat a common form of hair loss by protecting cells against aging and improving cell function.
research Human placental extract exerts hair growth-promoting effects through the GSK-3β signaling pathway in human dermal papilla cells
Human placental extract may help hair growth by affecting certain cell signals and could be more effective with minoxidil.
research 1428 DKK2 and SOSTDC1 cooperate to initiate the first catagen phase of the hair follicle growth cycle
DKK2 and SOSTDC1 together are necessary for the normal timing of the first regression phase in the hair growth cycle.
research Characterization of a new, inducible transgenic mouse model with GFP expression in melanocytes and their precursors
A new mouse model helps study melanocyte cells using GFP expression.
research (−)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate promotes the dermal papilla cell proliferation and migration through the induction of VEGFA
Green tea compound EGCG may help hair growth by boosting cell activity.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Further Insights in Trichothiodistrophy: A Clinical, Microscopic, and Ultrastructural Study of 20 Cases and Literature Review
TTD symptoms vary widely, requiring thorough evaluations.
research Hairless triggers reactivation of hair growth by promoting Wnt signaling
The HR protein helps hair grow by blocking a hair growth inhibitor, aiding in hair follicle regeneration.
