research Effect of Adenovirus-Mediated Expression of Sonic Hedgehog Gene on Hair Regrowth in Mice With Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Using a gene therapy with the Sonic Hedgehog gene helps mice regrow hair faster after losing it from chemotherapy.
research p53‐dependent transcriptional regulation of EDA2R and its involvement in chemotherapy‐induced hair loss
The study concludes that the EDA2R gene is activated by p53 during chemotherapy but is not necessary for chemotherapy-induced hair loss.
research Exclamation marks and other trichoscopic signs of chemotherapy-induced alopecia
Chemotherapy can cause hair changes similar to alopecia areata, which might lead to misdiagnosis.
research Transdermal film-loaded finasteride microplates to enhance drug skin permeation: Two-step optimization study
Optimized film improves finasteride skin absorption and treatment efficiency.
research Topical minoxidil counteracts stress-induced hair growth inhibition in mice
Minoxidil helps prevent stress-caused hair loss in mice.
research Medication-Induced Repigmentation of Gray Hair: A Systematic Review
Some medications might reverse gray hair, especially those that reduce inflammation or stimulate pigment production, and vitamin B might help.
research Drug Delivery System Based On Minoxidil Nanoparticles Promotes Hair Growth In C57BL/6 Mice
Minoxidil nanoparticles can potentially be a more effective treatment for hair growth than current treatments.
research Preparation of finasteride capsules-loaded drug nanoparticles: formulation, optimization, in vitro, and pharmacokinetic evaluation
Finasteride capsules with nanoparticles improve drug delivery, solubility, stability, and effectiveness.
research Exploring pericyte and cardiac stem cell secretome unveils new tactics for drug discovery
New drugs for heart disease may be developed from molecules secreted by stem cells.
research Penetration enhancer-containing vesicles (PEVs) as carriers for cutaneous delivery of minoxidil:in vitroevaluation of drug permeation by infrared spectroscopy
PEVs effectively deliver minoxidil through skin.
research Liposomes with an Ethanol Fraction as an Application for Drug Delivery
Ethosomes improve drug delivery through the skin but may have side effects like irritation.
research Ganoderma lucidum is an inhibitor of testosterone-induced prostatic hyperplasia in rats
Ganoderma lucidum may help treat enlarged prostate in rats.
research Monitoring chemotherapy‐induced alopecia with trichoscopy
Chemotherapy caused hair loss with specific patterns, but most patients had hair regrowth after treatment, while some had lasting hair loss.
research Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy for investigating murine telogen skin after spontaneous or depilation-induced hair growth
EPR spectroscopy showed that spontaneous hair growth results in thicker skin and less pigmented hair than depilation-induced growth.
research INTERFERONS IN DERMATOLOGY
Interferons are effective for some skin conditions and cancers, but can have side effects and need more research for optimal use.
research Induction of Skin-Derived Precursor Cells from Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Scientists made skin stem cells from other human cells with over 97% efficiency, which could help treat skin conditions.
research Progesterone-induced stimulation of mammary tumorigenesis is due to the progesterone metabolite, 5α-dihydroprogesterone (5αP) and can be suppressed by the 5α-reductase inhibitor, finasteride
Progesterone byproduct 5αP stimulates mammary tumor growth, but finasteride can suppress it.
research The Influence of Various Parameters on the Success of Sensor-Controlled Scalp Cooling in Preventing Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Scalp cooling can prevent hair loss in 65% of chemotherapy patients, especially effective in breast cancer patients and certain chemotherapy types.
research Efficient Intradermal Delivery of Superoxide Dismutase Using a Combination of Liposomes and Iontophoresis for Protection against UV-Induced Skin Damage
Liposomes and iontophoresis effectively deliver protective enzymes into the skin against UV damage.
research Role for the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor in Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Targeting EGFR may help reduce hair loss from chemotherapy.
research How much medication is delivered in a novel drug delivery technique that uses a tattoo machine?
The tattoo machine method safely delivers an average of 1,175 µg/cm² of medication into the skin.
research Tamoxifen-Induced Total Alopecia
Tamoxifen can cause total hair loss but its benefits outweigh this side effect.
research Identification of ultraviolet B radiation-induced microRNAs in normal human dermal papilla cells
UVB radiation changes the levels of certain microRNAs in skin cells, which may affect cell survival and hair growth.
research ALLETHRIN INDUCED TOXICOPATHOLOGICAL ALTERATIONS IN ADULT MALE ALBINO RATS
Allethrin caused harmful effects and organ damage in rats, worsening with higher doses and longer exposure.
research The Effect of Parathyroid Hormones on Hair Follicle Physiology: Implications for Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Parathyroid hormones are important for hair growth, but their use in treating hair loss from chemotherapy is still uncertain.
research Tamoxifen-Induced Female Androgenetic Alopecia in a Patient with Breast Cancer
Tamoxifen caused hair loss in a 52-year-old woman.
