Male pattern baldness is mostly inherited, involves many genes, and is linked to other traits like early puberty and strong bones.
research Neuroimmunoregulation of Androgens in the Adrenal Gland and the Skin
Cytokines and neuropeptides are key in controlling androgen levels, affecting skin and hair conditions.
research Congenital Hypotrichosis in Japanese White Strain (JW-NIBS) Rabbits.
A single recessive gene causes sparse hair in certain Japanese White rabbits.
research Noninflammatory, Nonpruritic Alopecia of Horses
Some horses lose hair without inflammation or itching due to various conditions, and while mainly a cosmetic issue, diagnosis requires examination and biopsies, and breeding is not advised if it's hereditary.
research Deletion of Deoxyribonucleic Acid Binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor Abrogates Genomic and Nongenomic Functions of Vitamin D
Removing part of the vitamin D receptor stops vitamin D from working properly.
research Androgen Action in the Ovary
Androgens are important for normal ovarian function and estrogen production, but may not be the main cause of follicle death.
research Tissue Engineering of the Reproductive System
Cell transplantation faces challenges in genitourinary reconstruction, but alternative tissue sources and microencapsulation show promise.
research Advances in scalp reconstruction
New techniques in scalp reconstruction have improved cosmetic results and reduced complications, especially for large defects.
research The Case of the Elusive Androgen
The patient's high testosterone was reduced by a medication that suppresses gonadotropin.
research DKK1 Mediated Inhibition of Wnt Signaling in Postnatal Mice Leads to Loss of TEC Progenitors and Thymic Degeneration
Blocking Wnt signaling in young mice causes thymus shrinkage and cell loss, but recovery is possible when the block is removed.
research Keratin expression in the human hair follicle
research Double Knockdown of the Androgen Receptor Target Genes DKK1 and SFRP1 Does Not Potentiate the Hair Growth-Promoting Effect of SFRP1 Silencing in Healthy Human Hair Follicles Ex Vivo
Silencing SFRP1 alone promotes hair growth, but adding DKK1 does not help.
research Expression and roles of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein in ‘non-classical’, extra-adrenal and extra-gonadal cells and tissues
The protein StAR is found in 17 different organs and can affect hair loss and brain functions, but its full role is not yet fully understood.
research Ribonucleic Acids Coding for the Keratin Complex of Hair
Keratin proteins in hair are complex and come from multiple gene families.
research Analysis of Bimatoprost-Induced changes on Rabbits eyelash Follicle: Clinical and Electron microscopic study
Bimatoprost eye drops make rabbit eyelashes longer, thicker, and darker, and increase the number of lashes without causing inflammation.
research Formation of surface membranes in developing mammalian hair fibres
Mature hair surfaces are formed by keratinized cells with developed layers, not just modified plasma membranes.
research Dynamic expression of Runx1 in skin affects hair structure
Runx1 is crucial for proper hair structure and development.
research Hair cycle and hair pigmentation: dynamic interactions and changes associated with aging
As people age, their hair follicles produce less pigment, leading to gray and white hair, due to factors like reduced enzyme activity and damage to melanocyte DNA.
research Beyond the Epidermal-Melanin-Unit: The Human Scalp Anagen Hair Bulb Is Home to Multiple Melanocyte Subpopulations of Variable Melanogenic Capacity
The human scalp hair bulb contains different types of melanocytes with varying abilities to produce melanin.
research The Catalog of Human Hair Keratins
Human hair is made up of different keratins, some strong and some weak, with specific types appearing at various stages of hair growth.
research Human Hair Keratin‐Associated Proteins (KAPs)
