research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Evaluation of Serum Levels of Nesfatin-1 and Insulin resistance in Patients with Acne Vulgaris
Insulin resistance and nesfatin-1 are linked to acne severity.
research Symposium Proceedings of the 4th Intercontinental Meeting of Hair Research Societies: “The World of Hair 2004”
The 2004 hair research meeting presented new findings on hair cell differentiation, genetic factors in hair loss, hair pigmentation, and potential targeted therapies.
research Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome associated with androgen insensitivity syndrome (testicular feminization)
A woman had both Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, causing hair loss, and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, making her genetically male but physically female. This suggests androgens don't affect the hair loss condition.
research Melasma and Endocrine Disorders
Melasma is a skin condition linked to female hormones, genetics, UV exposure, and certain medications, but not to pituitary, adrenal, or thyroid diseases.
research Emerging medication for the treatment of male hypogonadism
New treatments for male hypogonadism are effective and should be personalized.
research Keratinocyte-derived follistatin regulates epidermal homeostasis and wound repair
Activin activation in skin cells speeds up wound healing without affecting scar quality.
research Contraceptive use in acne
Hormonal contraceptives can help treat acne by affecting sebum production and androgen levels.
research New Biomarkers to Evaluate Hyperandrogenemic Women and Hypogonadal Men
The document concludes that hormonal biomarkers are key for diagnosing hyperandrogenemia in women and hypogonadism in men.
research Free Androgen Index (FAI): Marker of Premature Androgenetic Alopecia in Men
The Free Androgen Index (FAI) is the best indicator of early hair loss in men before age 30.
research Molecular genetics of androgen insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.
research Estrogens and aging skin
Estrogen therapy can reduce skin aging but has cancer risks.
research Skin steroidogenesis in health and disease
The skin's ability to produce hormones is linked to various skin conditions, and better understanding this process could lead to new treatments.
research Study of gene expression alteration in male androgenetic alopecia: evidence of predominant molecular signalling pathways
Hair loss involves immune responses, inflammation, and disrupted signaling pathways.
research Expression of AKT1 along with AKT2 in granulosa-lutein cells of hyperandrogenic PCOS patients
The study found that women with hyperandrogenic PCOS have higher levels of AKT1 and AKT2 proteins in their cells, which may lead to cell dysfunction.
research Serum ferritin and vitamin D levels should be evaluated in patients with diffuse hair loss prior to treatment
Check and treat low iron and vitamin D levels in people with hair loss.
research Transforming growth factor-β in stem cells and tissue homeostasis
TGF-β is crucial for tissue repair and can cause diseases if not properly regulated.
research Cause of Androgenic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness may be caused by scalp pressure on hair follicles, which increases with age and leads to a cycle of hair loss. This process is not directly determined by genes.
research Clinical and genetic findings in a Chinese family with VDR-associated hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets
A Chinese family had a child with a specific gene mutation causing vitamin D-resistant rickets, but the child improved with calcium and low-dose calcitriol.
research Formulation and In-vivo Assessment of Topical Polyherbal Hair Serum to Promote Hair Growth
The polyherbal hair serum helped prevent hair loss and improved hair growth better than the usual treatment.
research Hair greying & its palliative management
Hair greying is seen as a sign of aging; temporary fixes like hair dye are used, but a balanced diet and hair care can help manage it.
research EVALUATION OF ASSOCIATION OF ANTHROPOMETRIC INDICES WITH STRESS RESPONSE IN PCOS POPULATION
Stress worsens symptoms and body changes in women with PCOS, especially during COVID-19.
research Androgenetic Alopecia
Heredity and hormones cause common hair loss, and topical minoxidil is the first recommended treatment.
research A Teenage Girl with Unexpected Pubertal Changes
The girl's unexpected pubic hair growth led to a diagnosis different from complete androgen insensitivity syndrome.
research HaCaT Cell Proliferation Influenced by Melatonin
Melatonin affects skin cell growth differently based on how much and how long it's used.
research Increased Incidence of Telogen Effluvium Following Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy in Patients with Elevated TNF-α Expression: A Prospective Cohort Study
High TNF-α levels may increase hair loss risk after PRP therapy.
research Oral Contraception and the Treatment of Acne: Where are we?
Birth control pills help treat acne, especially when caused by excess male hormones, and are safe to use with antibiotics.
research Dasatinib-Induced Leukotrichia in a Patient With Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia
A woman's hair turned white after taking a cancer drug called dasatinib.
research CLINICAL UPDATES IN HAIR
Most treatments for hair loss in 1997 were not effective for most people, and maintaining hair growth was difficult.
