research A preliminary study of finasteride in Tourette syndrome
Finasteride reduces Tourette syndrome symptoms, but results may be limited due to potential biases.
research Desferrioxamine treatment of aceruloplasminemia: Long‐term follow‐up
Finasteride may help reduce symptoms in male Tourette syndrome patients.
research Pathological findings in a case of stiff person syndrome with anti‐GAD antibodies
Finasteride significantly reduced tics and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in patients with Tourette syndrome.
research The physical and physiological effects of vacuum massage on the different skin layers: a current status of the literature
Vacuum massage may improve skin elasticity and induce changes in skin cells, but evidence for treating burn scars is insufficient and more research is needed.
research Neurotrophin-4 modulates the mechanotransducer Cav3.2 T-type calcium current in mice down-hair neurons
Neurotrophin-4 increases calcium current in specific mouse neurons through the PI3K pathway.
research On the geographies of hair: Exploring the entangled margins of the bordered body
Hair significantly shapes body identity and social interactions, influencing how we perceive and relate to our bodies.
research Encephalitis lethargica due to Epstein–Barr virus infection
Finasteride may help reduce tic severity in male Tourette syndrome patients.
research Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Hairless mammals have genetic changes in both their protein-coding and regulatory sequences related to hair.
research Changes in the Hydrophobic Proteins in Response to Biotin Administration in Serum of Infant Patients with Alopecia as Assessed by the Protein Micro-Sequencing Method
Biotin helps regulate proteins in the blood, which may explain its role in hair growth.
research The zombie commodity: hair and the politics of its globalization
The article concludes that the global hair trade is exploitative and reflects complex cultural and economic issues.
research Biology of the Hair Follicle: The Basics
The document concludes that understanding hair follicle biology can lead to better hair loss treatments.
research Interferon alfa-2a in the treatment of cutaneous T cell lymphoma
Interferon alfa-2a is effective for treating cutaneous T cell lymphoma but has significant side effects.
research Prostaglandin-Induced Hair Growth
Latanoprost can make eyelashes longer, thicker, and darker.
research Molecular biology of hair morphogenesis: Development and cycling
Understanding hair growth involves complex interactions between molecules and could help treat hair disorders.
research Tactile innervation densities across the whole body
Young adults have about 230,000 tactile nerve fibers, decreasing 5-8% per decade with age.
research Methods for quantifying intrafollicular drug delivery: a critical appraisal
The document concludes that there is no agreed-upon best method for measuring drug delivery within hair follicles and more research is needed to validate current techniques.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes
Minoxidil affects cell growth in two ways: low doses increase growth, while high doses slow it down and can be toxic.
research The Hair Follicle: An Underutilized Source of Cells and Materials for Regenerative Medicine
Hair follicles are valuable for regenerative medicine and wound healing.
research Undariopsis peterseniana Promotes Hair Growth by the Activation of Wnt/β-Catenin and ERK Pathways
Undariopsis peterseniana extract helps hair grow by activating certain cell growth pathways and could be a new treatment for hair loss.
research Immunology of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata, a type of hair loss, is likely an autoimmune disease with a genetic link, but its exact cause is still unknown.
research Hair follicle elongation in organ culture of skin from newborn and adult mice
Insulin or IGF-I is needed for hair growth in newborn mice, while minoxidil helps adult mouse hair grow, suggesting a way to study human hair loss.
research DERMATOLOGIC DISEASES AND PROBLEMS OF WOMEN THROUGHOUT THE LIFE CYCLE
Women experience various skin issues at different life stages, requiring careful treatment and awareness.
research Proposed mechanisms of low-level light therapy in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
LLLT helps treat hair loss by increasing blood flow, reducing inflammation, and stimulating growth factors.
research Desmoplastic melanoma presenting as primary alopecia neoplastica: a report of two cases
Two women were diagnosed with a rare melanoma that looked like hair loss but was actually a type of skin cancer.
research New insights into inflammatory memory of epidermal stem cells
Skin stem cells remember past inflammation, helping them respond better to future injuries and possibly aiding in treating skin issues.
research Study of the behaviour of lesional and nonlesional skin of canine recurrent flank alopecia transplanted to athymic nude mice
Dog skin with hair loss, when transplanted to mice, regrew hair, suggesting the hair loss cause is likely body-wide, not skin-specific.
research Enhanced Insights into Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: Advancements in Pathogenesis Understanding and Management Strategies
Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia needs better diagnostics and treatments, with dutasteride showing promise.
research A Review on Biological and Nutritional Value of Kiwi Fruit
Kiwi is a nutritious fruit that boosts immunity, aids digestion, and supports heart health.
research MicroRNA-mediated regulation of hair follicle regeneration: mechanisms, delivery strategies, and translational perspectives
MicroRNAs can help regenerate hair by influencing stem cells and immune responses, but delivery challenges exist.
