research Non-competitive androgen receptor inhibition in vitro and in vivo
Two new compounds can block androgen receptor activity in different ways and may lead to new treatments for androgen-related diseases.
research Hypertension and aldosterone levels in women with early-onset androgenetic alopecia
Women with early hair loss have higher blood pressure and aldosterone; screening and treatment may help.
research Foot shock stress prolongs the telogen stage of the spontaneous hair cycle in a non‐depilated mouse model
Stress in mice delays hair growth and treatments blocking substance P can partly reverse this effect.
research Polymeric micelle mediated follicular delivery of spironolactone: Targeting the mineralocorticoid receptor to prevent glucocorticoid-induced activation and delayed cutaneous wound healing
Using polymeric micelles to deliver spironolactone topically could improve wound healing in skin affected by glucocorticoids.
research Laminin-511 is an epithelial message promoting dermal papilla development and function during early hair morphogenesis
Laminin-511 is crucial for early hair growth and maintaining important hair development signals.
research Pharmacological therapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia/lower urinary tract symptoms: an overview for the practising clinician
Medications have become the main treatment for enlarged prostate symptoms, replacing surgery and watchful waiting.
research Olfactory receptor OR2AT4 regulates human hair growth
A certain smell receptor in hair follicles can affect hair growth when activated by a synthetic sandalwood scent.
research Prolactin—a novel neuroendocrine regulator of human keratin expressionin situ
Prolactin affects the production of different keratins in human hair, which could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research Vitamin D and androgen receptor-targeted therapy for triple-negative breast cancer

research Hair Growth–Promoting Effects of Adiponectin In Vitro
Adiponectin may stimulate hair growth and could be a potential treatment for promoting hair growth.
research Skin toxicity of anti‐cancer therapy
Anti-cancer treatments can cause reversible hair loss, skin sensitivity, pigmentation changes, nail damage, and skin reactions, with a need for more research on managing these side effects.
research Intrinsic activation of cell growth and differentiation in ex vivo cultured human hair follicles by a transient endogenous production of ROS
Temporary ROS production in cultured human hair follicles promotes growth and stem cell activation.
research Role of neurosteroid allopregnanolone on age-related differences in exercise-induced hypoalgesia in rats
