research Inducing hair follicle neogenesis with secreted proteins enriched in embryonic skin
Three specific proteins can turn adult skin cells into hair-growing cells, suggesting a new hair loss treatment.
research Testosterone levels in relation to oral contraceptive use and the androgen receptor CAG and GGC length polymorphisms in healthy young women
Oral contraceptives lower testosterone levels in women, especially those with certain genetic traits, and may be linked to increased breast cancer risk.
research Intermittent Low-Dose Finasteride Administration Is Effective for Treatment of Hirsutism in Adolescent Girls: A Pilot Study
Low-dose finasteride reduces excessive hair growth in teenage girls safely and affordably.
research XEDAR activates the non-canonical NF-κB pathway
XEDAR triggers a specific signaling pathway in cells.
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 Diagnostic applications and therapeutic option of Cascade CRISPR/Cas in the modulation of miRNA in diverse cancers: promises and obstacles
CRISPR/Cas systems show promise for cancer treatment by targeting miRNAs, but delivery and specificity challenges remain.
research The effect of minocycline on the metabolism of androgens by human oral periosteal fibroblasts and its inhibition by finasteride
Minocycline may cause hair loss by increasing DHT levels, but finasteride can help counteract this effect.
research Topical L‐thyroxine: The Cinderella among hormones waiting to dance on the floor of dermatological therapy?
Topical L-thyroxine may help with wound healing and hair growth but should be used short-term due to potential risks.
research Promotion of hair growth by newly synthesized ceramide mimetic compound
A new compound, BOI, can help hair grow by changing hair cycle phases and increasing certain cell contents.
research 11α-Hydroxyprogesterone, a potent 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase inhibitor, is metabolised by steroid-5α-reductase and cytochrome P450 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase to produce C11α-derivatives of 21-deoxycortisol and 11-hydroxyandrostenedione in vitro
11α-Hydroxyprogesterone is changed into different substances by certain enzymes and may play a role in prostate cancer.
research Frontotemporal dementia with parkinsonism presenting as posterior cortical atrophy
A woman's unique dementia was misdiagnosed, a genetic mutation increases Parkinson's risk with age, and finasteride may help with Tourette syndrome.
research Purple corn extract improves benign prostatic hyperplasia by inhibiting 5 alpha-reductase type 2 and inflammation in testosterone propionate-induced rats
Purple corn extract may help reduce prostate enlargement and inflammation.
research Male‐pattern baldness, common latent viruses, and microcompetition
Common latent viruses might contribute to male-pattern baldness by disrupting cell processes that normally suppress hair loss-related proteins.
research Androgen Receptor Ligands: Agonists and Antagonists
Different substances that activate or block the androgen receptor can affect male development and treat conditions like prostate cancer.
research Susan Lee Lindquist (1949–2016)—pioneer in the study of cellular protein folding and disease
Susan Lee Lindquist was a pioneering biologist who made significant contributions to understanding protein folding and its role in disease.
research The Role of Histone Demethylases in Disease
Histone demethylases play a key role in the development of many diseases and may be targets for treatment.
research Botanical drug preparations for alleviating hair loss in menopausal women: a global ethnopharmacological mini-review
Botanical treatments like saw palmetto, rosemary oil, and ginseng may help reduce hair loss in menopausal women.
research Longitudinal clinical course in patients with 5α-reductase type 2 deficiency treated with testosterone and dihydrotestosterone during infancy and puberty
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone treatments can help with penile growth in males with 5α-reductase type 2 deficiency, with dihydrotestosterone being more effective in infancy.
research Host Genetic Susceptibility and Impacts of Dietary Factors on Covid-19
Certain genes and nutrients like vitamin D, zinc, and omega fatty acids affect COVID-19 severity and infection risk.
research Phytochemicals as emerging therapeutic agents for alopecia treatment
Plant-based chemicals may help hair growth and prevent hair loss but need more research to compete with current treatments.
research Mechanistic synergy of hair growth promotion by the Avicennia marina extract and its active constituent (avicequinone C) in dermal papilla cells isolated from androgenic alopecia patients
Avicennia marina extract and avicequinone C can potentially promote hair growth and treat hair loss by interfering with hair loss mechanisms and boosting growth factors.
research mTOR signaling promotes stem cell activation via counterbalancing BMP-mediated suppression during hair regeneration
mTOR signaling helps activate hair stem cells by balancing out the suppression caused by BMP during hair growth.
research Treatment of an alopecia areata patient with tofacitinib results in regrowth of hair and changes in serum and skin biomarkers
A patient with alopecia areata regrew hair after taking tofacitinib and showed changes in certain blood and skin markers.
research Potential of nano-phytochemicals in cervical cancer therapy
Nano-sized plant-based chemicals could improve cervical cancer treatment by being more effective and causing fewer side effects than current methods.
research Thyrotropin-releasing hormone and oestrogen differentially regulate prolactin and prolactin receptor expression in female human skin and hair follicles in vitro
Oestrogen and thyrotropin-releasing hormone affect prolactin and its receptor in human skin and hair, suggesting new treatment options for related conditions.
