research 1376 Dermal white adipose tissue enhances proliferation, pigmentation and hair shaft elongation in human hair follicles ex vivo
Fat under the skin can help hair grow longer, darker, and increase cell growth.
research Vitamin D and platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) in the treatment of vitiligo
PRP combined with vitamin D improves vitiligo more effectively than vitamin D alone.
research Alterations in the expression of specific epidermal keratin markers in the hairless mouse by the topical application of the tumor promoters 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin and the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate
TCDD changes skin cell growth and keratin production in mice.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Impact of One-Week Administration of Dihydrotestosterone in Rat Anterior Pituitary Gland
Dihydrotestosterone changes some hormone-related gene expressions in rat pituitary glands but doesn't affect the estrous cycle.
research Nonscarring alopecia associated with vitamin D deficiency.
Low vitamin D levels might cause hair loss that can be treated with vitamin D supplements.
research Topical calcipotriol vs narrowband ultraviolet B in treatment of alopecia areata: a randomized-controlled trial
Both topical calcipotriol and narrowband UVB improved alopecia, but combining them didn't enhance the effect on hair loss severity, despite higher vitamin D3 levels.
research Role of vitamin D receptor in the epidermal function and hair follicle homeostasis.
