research Hair growth and rejuvenation: An overview
The document concludes that minoxidil and finasteride are proven for hair growth, herbal remedies show promise, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness.
research Mice with Alopecia, Osteoporosis, and Systemic Amyloidosis Due to Mutation in Zdhhc13, a Gene Coding for Palmitoyl Acyltransferase
A gene mutation in mice causes hair loss, weak bones, and protein buildup, showing how protein processing issues can lead to diseases.
research Effects of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors on erectile function, sexual desire and ejaculation
5-alpha reductase inhibitors can cause sexual side effects like erectile dysfunction and reduced sexual desire, sometimes lasting after stopping the drug.
research Trans‐species hair growth induction by human hair follicle dermal papillae
Human hair follicle cells can grow hair when put into mouse skin if they stay in contact with mouse cells.
research The Paradox of p53: What, How, and Why?
The p53 protein has complex, sometimes contradictory functions, including tumor suppression and promoting cell survival.
research Neuroactive steroid levels and psychiatric and andrological features in post-finasteride patients
Post-finasteride patients show changed neuroactive steroid levels, possibly causing erectile dysfunction and depression.
research Effect of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors on Sexual Function: A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review of Randomized Controlled Trials
5α-reductase inhibitors increase the risk of sexual dysfunction, especially in men with enlarged prostate.
research Female pattern hair loss in complete androgen insensitivity syndrome
Hair loss in women may have causes other than hormones.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research A novel finasteride 0.25% topical solution for androgenetic alopecia: pharmacokinetics and effects on plasma androgen levels in healthy male volunteers
New finasteride solution effectively reduces baldness-causing hormone, potentially with fewer side effects.
research Red Ginseng Extract Promotes the Hair Growth in Cultured Human Hair Follicles
Red Ginseng Extract may help human hair grow by activating growth pathways and blocking negative effects of certain hormones.
research Stem cell-derived motor neurons from spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy patients
The study suggests that motor neurons created from stem cells of patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy show signs of the disease, including changes in protein levels and cell functions.
research Wnt signaling: the good and the bad
Wnt signaling is important for development and cell regulation but can cause diseases like cancer when not working properly.
research Hunting the genes in male‐pattern alopecia: how important are they, how close are we and what will they tell us?
Genes play a significant role in male-pattern baldness, and understanding them could lead to new treatments and insights into related health issues.
research Skin aging as a mechanical phenomenon: The main weak links
Skin aging is largely due to differences in stiffness and elasticity between skin layers, leading to wrinkles.
research Male pattern baldness: current treatments, future prospects
Current treatments for male pattern baldness include minoxidil and finasteride, with new options being developed.
research Androgen modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in androgenetic alopecia
Androgens may block hair growth signals, targeting this could treat hair loss.
research Spironolactone: An Anti-androgenic and Anti-hypertensive Drug That May Provide Protection Against the Novel Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) Induced Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) in COVID-19
Spironolactone might help protect against severe lung problems in COVID-19 patients.
research Sex hormone–binding globulin and risk of hyperglycemia in patients with androgenetic alopecia
People with hair loss have higher risk of high blood sugar and diabetes, and lower levels of a specific hormone.
research Steroidogenic Isoenzymes in Human Hair and Their Potential Role in Androgenetic Alopecia
Steroidogenic isoenzymes may help improve treatments for common hair loss.
research The Role of Immature and Mature Adipocytes in Hair Cycling
Both immature and mature fat cells are important for hair growth cycles, with immature cells promoting growth and mature cells possibly inhibiting it.
research Interaction of chronic ethanol exposure and finasteride: sex and strain differences
Finasteride reduces alcohol withdrawal effects, especially in female mice.
research Risk Factors for Premature Hair Graying in Young Turkish Adults
Premature hair graying in young Turkish adults is more likely if they have stress, a family history of graying, drink alcohol, have chronic diseases, are older, or are taller.
research The Significance of NOTCH Pathway in the Development of Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis
Blocking the NOTCH pathway can prevent fibrosis in systemic sclerosis.
research The role of R-spondins and their receptors in bone metabolism
R-spondins and their receptors help increase bone growth and may be used to treat bone loss diseases.
research Inhibitory activities of some traditional Chinese herbs against testosterone 5α-reductase and effects of Cacumen platycladi on hair re-growth in testosterone-treated mice
Certain Chinese herbs, especially Cacumen platycladi, can promote hair regrowth and reduce hair loss-related hormone levels in mice.
research Hair growth effect of minoxidil
Minoxidil helps hair grow by improving blood flow and increasing growth factors in hair follicles.
research The Molecular Basis of Androgen Insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, affecting sexual development.
research LOOSE ANAGEN SYNDROME AND LOOSE ANAGEN HAIR
Loose Anagen Syndrome causes easy-to-pull, thin hair, mainly in young girls, and improves with age.
