Topical finasteride doesn't reduce DHT levels, hinting at an endocrine role in hair loss.
research From Axioms to New Insights into Dandruff
Dandruff is a common, winter-worsened scalp condition linked to inflammation and microorganisms, treatable with products like ketoconazole, and may affect hair loss.
research Human androgenic steroids affect growth of dermatophytes in vitro
Androgenic steroids can slow down or stop the growth of certain skin fungi.
research Role of Androgen in Mesenchymal Epithelial Interactions in Human Hair Follicle

research BI02 (P97): Epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor therapy induces a distinct inflammatory hair follicle response that includes a collapse of immune privilege
research Pseudofolliculitis barbae; current treatment options
The document concludes that stopping shaving or removing affected hair can alleviate Pseudofolliculitis barbae (PFB).
research Markers of peripheral androgen action in vivo and in vitro
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is crucial for conditions like male-pattern baldness and acne, and measuring a byproduct, androstanediol glucuronide, is a better way to assess DHT's effects than DHT blood levels.
research Effect of 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and Testosterone on Apoptosis in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.
research Androgens modulate keratinocyte differentiation indirectly through enhancing growth factor production from dermal fibroblasts
Male hormones indirectly affect skin cell development by increasing growth factor levels from skin fibroblasts.
research Dissecting cellulitis of the scalp in a paediatric male
A 13-year-old boy with a rare scalp condition improved significantly with isotretinoin, minoxidil, oral steroids, and antiseptic shampoo.
research [Effects of androgens on the skin. Therpeutic implications].

research Interaction between dermal papilla cells and follicular epithelial cells in vitro: effect of androgen
Testosterone increases hair follicle cell growth when beard or axillary skin cells are present together.
research Filamin A Mediates Wound Closure by Promoting Elastic Deformation and Maintenance of Tension in the Collagen Matrix
Testosterone may worsen hair loss by affecting hair growth signals, while different prostaglandins can either hinder or promote hair growth.
research Inflammation in androgenetic alopecia and hair loss: linking neurosciences-endocrinology-dermatology
Hair loss in men may be caused by inflammation triggered by hormones, and treatments reducing inflammation could potentially promote hair growth.
