research Early Exposure to Sexualized Content and Androgenetic Alopecia: Can Culture Shape Our Biology?
Early exposure to sexualized content and poor lifestyle choices may lead to early hair loss.
research Human hair follicles display a functional equivalent of the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal (HPA) axis and synthesize cortisol
Human hair follicles can produce cortisol like the body's stress response system.
research Maternal Influence on Child HPA Axis: A Prospective Study of Cortisol Levels in Hair
Maternal stress during pregnancy affects a child's stress levels.
research The human hair follicle has established a fully functional peripheral equivalent of the hypothamalic‐pituitary‐adrenal‐axis (HPA)
Human hair follicles can produce stress hormones like the body's main stress response system.
research Localized alopecia and suppression of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in dogs following treatment with difluprednate 0.05% ophthalmic emulsion (Durezol®)
Long-term use of difluprednate eye drops in dogs can lead to hair loss and hormone imbalance.
research HPA Axis Variation and ACEs; Childhood Sexual Trauma is Associated with Lower Hair Cortisol in Adulthood
Childhood sexual trauma, especially between ages 5-7, is linked to lower cortisol levels in adult hair, suggesting long-term stress response changes.
research Allopregnanolone (AP) induces opioid inhibition of hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis responses to interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in pregnancy
Allopregnanolone and opioids together reduce stress hormone responses during pregnancy.
research Does hair cortisol concentration reflect measurable regulatory biology of the HPA axis in healthy humans?
Hair cortisol concentration partly reflects HPA axis regulation but doesn't capture all its complexities.
research Testosterone’s regulation of the HPA axis differs for adolescent and adult male rats
Adolescent male rats release more stress hormones than adults, and testosterone affects them differently.
research ANALÝZA KORTIZOLU VO VLASOCH – BIOMARKER AKTIVÁCIE HPA OSI
Hair cortisol levels can effectively indicate long-term hormone activity.
research Hair cortisol: an indicator of HPA activity in relation to environmental perception in New Zealand White rabbit.
Hair cortisol reliably indicates stress in rabbits.
research New effects of caffeine on corticotropin‐releasing hormone (CRH)‐induced stress along the intrafollicular classical hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis (CRH‐R1/2, IP3‐R, ACTH, MC‐R2) and the neurogenic non‐HPA axis (substance P, p75NTRand TrkA) inex vivohuman male androgenetic scalp hair follicles
Caffeine may help reduce stress-induced hair loss.
research Neuroimmunoendocrine circuitry of the ‘brain-skin connection’
Stress can worsen skin conditions and stop hair growth by affecting the body's stress response system.
research Neurosteroidogenesis Is Required for the Physiological Response to Stress: Role of Neurosteroid-Sensitive GABAAReceptors
Neurosteroids are crucial for stress response, and targeting specific receptors may help treat certain disorders.
research Cortisol determination in hair and faeces from domestic cats and dogs
Hair cortisol can reliably indicate chronic stress in cats and dogs.
research Central Opioid Inhibition of Neuroendocrine Stress Responses in Pregnancy in the Rat Is Induced by the Neurosteroid Allopregnanolone
In late pregnancy, allopregnanolone reduces stress responses in rats by affecting brain chemicals.
research Neuroendocrinology of the hair follicle: principles and clinical perspectives
Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.
research Steroid Biomarkers and Genetic Studies Reveal Inactivating Mutations in Hexose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase in Patients with Cortisone Reductase Deficiency
Certain mutations in the H6PD gene cause Cortisone Reductase Deficiency by affecting hormone production.
research Neuroendocrine Perspectives in Alopecia Areata: Does Stress Play a Role?
Stress might contribute to hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research Stress-related skin disorders
Stress can worsen skin conditions by affecting hormone levels and immune response.
research Hair cortisol concentrations in mental disorders: A systematic review
People with depression often have higher hair cortisol levels, while those with PTSD tend to have lower levels, but more research is needed to understand this fully.
research Radiolabel validation of cortisol in the hair of rhesus monkeys
Hair cortisol can indicate long-term stress levels, but hair growth rate differences may affect accuracy.
research Chronic Stress Suppresses the Expression of Cutaneous Hypothalamic–Pituitary–Adrenocortical Axis Elements and Melanogenesis
Chronic stress can reduce skin pigmentation.
research Persistent escalation of alcohol consumption by mice exposed to brief episodes of social defeat stress: suppression by CRF-R1 antagonism
Blocking CRF-R1 can reduce alcohol intake in stressed mice.
research Divergent neuroactive steroid responses to stress and ethanol in rat and mouse strains: relevance for human studies
Stress and alcohol affect brain chemicals differently in rats, mice, and humans, influenced by genetic differences.
research Hair loss and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis activity in captive rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta).
Higher stress levels may be linked to hair loss in rhesus macaques.
research HPA axis stress reactivity and hair cortisol concentrations in recently detoxified alcoholics and healthy controls with and without childhood maltreatment
Alcohol dependence affects stress hormone levels more than childhood maltreatment.
research An Investigation of Hair Cortisol Concentration across Body Sites and within Hair shaft
Forearm hair has more cortisol than lower leg hair.
