research The human gut chemical landscape predicts microbe-mediated biotransformation of foods and drugs
The study developed a tool to predict how gut microbes process foods and drugs, showing that similar compounds often share metabolic pathways and effects.
research Synthesis and biological evaluation of novel unsaturated carboxysteroids as human 5α-reductase inhibitors: A legitimate approach
New steroid compounds effectively inhibit 5α-reductase and may treat hair loss.
research TREM2 macrophages induced by human lipids drive inflammation in acne lesions
TREM2 macrophages and unsaturated lipids contribute to acne inflammation.
research Expression of type 1 5α-reductase and metabolism of testosterone in reconstructed human epidermis (SkinEthic®): a new model for screening skin-targeted androgen modulators
The study created a new method to test drugs that affect hormone processing in skin.
research Androgen actions on the human hair follicle: perspectives
Androgens have complex effects on hair growth, promoting it in some areas but causing hair loss in others, and our understanding of this is still evolving.
research Melanocyte Subpopulation Turnover During the Human Hair Cycle: An Immunohistochemical Study
Melanocyte activity in hair follicles is linked to the hair growth cycle, being active in growth phases and inactive in rest phases.
research Estrogens and Human Scalp Hair Growth—Still More Questions than Answers
The effects of estrogen on human hair growth are unclear and need more research.
research Pharmacogenetic analysis of human steroid 5α reductase type II: comparison of finasteride and dutasteride
Dutasteride is more efficient than finasteride, but individual results vary.
research Thyroid Hormones Directly Alter Human Hair Follicle Functions: Anagen Prolongation and Stimulation of Both Hair Matrix Keratinocyte Proliferation and Hair Pigmentation
Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.
research Degradation of Human Hair by Papain
Papain and bisulfite break down human hair by dissolving parts of it.
research Angiogenin is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and stimulates hair growth
Angiogenin helps hair grow by stimulating cell growth and blood vessel formation.
research From Agriculture to Clinics: Unlocking the Potential of Magnetized Water for Planetary and Human Health
Magnetized water may improve agriculture and human health, but more research is needed.
research Sulfation of minoxidil by multiple human cytosolic sulfotransferases
Minoxidil breakdown varies by enzymes, affecting hair loss treatment effectiveness.

PAD enzymes play a key role in hair growth and structure.
research Primary Follicular Dystrophy With Scarring Dermatitis in C57BL/6 Mouse Substrains Resembles Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia in Humans
Certain mouse strains develop a skin condition similar to a human hair loss disease due to genetic defects.
research Simultaneous determination of androgens and prostaglandins in human urine using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
Researchers developed a reliable way to measure hormones in urine, showing that a baldness treatment doesn't change hormone levels.
research Exploring the potential effect and mechanisms of protocatechuic acid on human hair follicle melanocytes
Protocatechuic acid can reduce melanin production and boost antioxidant activity in hair follicles.
research AP collagen peptides improve hair growth and quality by promoting human hair cell proliferation and keratin synthesis
AP collagen peptides may help hair grow better and become stronger.
research Zinc in the Soil and Its Importance for the Plants and Human Health. An integrated review
Zinc is essential for plant growth and human health, but many soils lack enough zinc, affecting crops and potentially leading to health problems.
research Extraction and Analysis of Cortisol from Human and Monkey Hair
Hair cortisol analysis effectively measures long-term stress.
research Extraction and Analysis of Cortisol from Human and Monkey Hair
The method effectively measures long-term stress levels using hair samples.
research Simultaneous determination of androgens and prostaglandins in human urine using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
