Research
180-210 / 1000+ results research Optical coherence tomography as a minimally invasive androgenic alopecia diagnostic platform (Conference Presentation)
OCT can effectively diagnose different stages of hair loss non-invasively.
research Comparison of mathematical indices of insulin resistance for clinical application in the four phenotypes of polycystic ovarian syndrome
Insulin resistance varies among PCOS types, and simple math tools can help identify it early.
research 851 The role of astrotactin2 in regulating mammalian skin polarity
Astrotactin2 affects hair follicle orientation and skin cell polarity.
research Visually scoring hirsutism
The modified Ferriman-Gallwey method is a useful tool for diagnosing hirsutism.
research Hirsutism scoring in polycystic ovary syndrome: concordance between clinicians' and patients' self-scoring
Patients with PCOS tend to score their hirsutism higher than clinicians, making self-scoring less useful for diagnosis.
research Painless Hair Analysis
TrichoScan offers a painless way to analyze and manage hair loss.
research Molecular elements of the regulatory control of keratin filament modulator AHF/trichohyalin in the hair follicle
The study concluded that a protein important for hair strength is regulated by certain molecular processes and is affected by growth phases.
research Scalp immersion proxigraphy (SIP): an improved imaging technique for phototrichogram analysis*
SIP is a better method for measuring hair growth accurately.
research A novel mutation in ST14 at a functionally significant amino acid residue expands the spectrum of ichthyosis-hypotrichosis syndrome
A new mutation in the ST14 gene broadens the understanding of ichthyosis-hypotrichosis syndrome.
research Hormonal and Immunological Correlations in Alopecia Areata Patients: Focus on Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
Alopecia areata patients have higher hormone levels, suggesting hormonal screening could help in treatment.
research [Hirsutism].
Hirsutism is excessive male-pattern hair growth in women, often treated cosmetically or with hormone therapy if contraception is also desired.
research Delayed hair cycle in mnd2 mutant mice lacking HtrA2 serine protease activity
HtrA2 activity is crucial for normal hair growth by regulating fat cell development.
research BMP2-mediated PTEN enhancement promotes differentiation of hair follicle stem cells by inducing autophagy
BMP2 helps hair follicle stem cells become specialized by increasing PTEN, which causes autophagy.
research A PAX1 enhancer locus is associated with susceptibility to idiopathic scoliosis in females
A genetic region near the PAX1 gene is linked to a higher risk of scoliosis in females.
research Assessment of diagnostic competence of plasmatic androgens on polycystic ovary syndrome based on receiver operator characteristic curves
Free Testosterone Index, bioavailable testosterone, and androstenedione are the most accurate for diagnosing excess male hormones in PCOS.
research Embryonic development of hair follicle pluripotent stem (hfPS) cells
research 895 Isoproterenol directs human hair follicle-associated pluripotent (hHAP) stem cells to differentiate to cardiac muscle cells
Human hair follicles can be used to create heart muscle cells.
