Minoxidil can reduce functions related to androgen receptors.
research Vitamin C Deficiency-Induced Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Vitamin C supplementation can resolve pulmonary arterial hypertension caused by vitamin C deficiency.
research Wnt signaling modulates mechanotransduction in the epidermis to drive hair follicle regeneration
Wnt signaling helps regenerate hair follicles by affecting how skin cells sense and respond to mechanical forces.
research Dermatological Changes during Menopause and HRT: What to Expect?
Menopause worsens skin, hair, and nails, affecting self-esteem and quality of life.
research Notes from the Editor Emeritus
Early attempts at using cloned cells for hair transplants failed, but 3D cell growth showed some promise.

research Prepubertal Fibrosing Alopecia in a Pattern Distribution
FAPD in children may not depend on androgens and should be treated with anti-inflammatory measures and minoxidil.
research Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia and the impact of wig prosthesis on patient quality of life: a case report with medical insurance appeal letter
Wearing a high-quality wig improved a woman's mood and life quality, and the authors suggest insurance should cover the cost of wigs.
research Enlarging alopecic patch in an African American woman with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia: A case of concomitant tinea incognito
Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment of hair loss.
research Comparison of Efficacy of Platelet-Rich Plasma With and Without Topical Minoxidil for Hair Growth in Patients With Androgenetic Alopecia: A Prospective Study
PRP therapy with minoxidil is more effective for hair growth than PRP alone.
research Scarring Alopecias: Pathology and an Update on Digital Developments
New digital tools are improving the diagnosis and understanding of irreversible hair loss conditions.
research Trichoscopy in hair disorders in darker skin: An approach to diagnosis
Trichoscopy is useful for diagnosing hair and scalp disorders in people with darker skin.
research Scalp hypothermia as a preventative measure for chemotherapy‐induced alopecia: a review of controlled clinical trials
Scalp cooling effectively reduces hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Therapeutic Potential of Stem Cells in Follicle Regeneration
Stem cells, especially from fat tissue and Wharton's jelly, can potentially regenerate hair follicles and treat hair loss, but more research is needed to perfect the treatment.
research The Cutaneous Epidermal Growth Factor Network: Can it be Translated Clinically to Stimulate Hair Growth?
Understanding EGFR roles could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Immunohistochemical Analysis of the Mechanistic Target of Rapamycin and Hypoxia Signalling Pathways in Basal Cell Carcinoma and Trichoepithelioma
The study found that analyzing certain cell signaling pathways is not a reliable method to tell apart two types of skin tumors.
research International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health Clinical Practice Guideline for the Use of Systemic Testosterone for Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder in Women
Testosterone therapy is effective and safe for women with low sexual desire, but it's hard to access.
research Transcriptome Analysis Reveals an Inhibitory Effect of Dihydrotestosterone-Treated 2D- and 3D-Cultured Dermal Papilla Cells on Hair Follicle Growth
Dihydrotestosterone treatment on 2D and 3D-cultured skin cells slows down hair growth by affecting certain genes and could be a potential target for hair loss treatment.
research Observations that suggest a contribution of altered dermal papilla mitochondrial function to androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss in men might be linked to changes in cell energy factories.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa: A comparison of guidelines
There is no gold standard treatment for hidradenitis suppurativa due to insufficient evidence.
research Exhaustive analysis of scalp hair regression: subjective and objective perception from initial hair loss to severe miniaturisation and drug-induced regrowth
Hair loss reduces hair thickness and coverage, but drug treatments mainly revive dormant hairs rather than reverse thinning; patients often undervalue their hair loss severity.
