research Polycystic ovary syndrome and insulin-resistant hyperinsulinemia
Insulin resistance contributes to hormone imbalances in many women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research TGF‐β2 is specifically expressed in human dermal papilla cells and modulates hair folliculogenesis
TGF-β2 plays a key role in human hair growth and development.
research Role of insulin resistance and diet in acne
Eating high glycemic foods and drinking milk may worsen acne by increasing insulin and IGF-1 levels.

Higher BMI links to worse hair loss in Taiwanese men.
research Recent advances on skin‐resident stem/progenitor cell functions in skin regeneration, aging and cancers and novel anti‐aging and cancer therapies
New treatments targeting skin stem cells show promise for skin repair, anti-aging, and cancer therapy.
research Polycystic ovarian syndrome
PCOS is a complex disorder managed by treating symptoms and requires a team of specialists.
research The effect of cilostazol, a phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) inhibitor, on human hair growth with the dual promoting mechanisms
Cilostazol helps hair grow by making hair root cells grow faster and changing growth factor levels.
research Development of Autoimmune Hair Loss Disease Alopecia Areata Is Associated with Cardiac Dysfunction in C3H/HeJ Mice
Mice with autoimmune hair loss showed signs of heart problems.
research Increased frequency of the DI genotype of the angiotensin-I converting enzyme and association of the II genotype with insulin resistance in polycystic ovary syndrome
The study suggests certain ACE gene variations are more common in women with PCOS and may be linked to increased insulin resistance.
research Hormonal regulation in male androgenetic alopecia—Sex hormones and beyond: Evidence from recent genetic studies
Hormones and genes affect hair growth and male baldness.
research Gynecologic and andrologic dermatology and the metabolic syndrome
Skin diseases linked to insulin resistance should be managed to prevent diabetes and reduce heart disease risk.
research Effect of a low-starch/low-dairy diet on fat oxidation in overweight and obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome
A low-starch/low-dairy diet may help overweight women with PCOS lose weight and improve metabolism, but more research is needed.
research Complex genetic dependencies among growth and neurological phenotypes in healthy children: Towards deciphering developmental mechanisms
Genetic factors influence growth and brain development in children.
research DMBA/TPA Treatment Is Necessary for BCC Formation from Patched Deficient Epidermal Cells in Ptch flox/flox CD4Cre +/− Mice
Genetic mutation and carcinogen treatment are both needed for skin cancer to develop in these specific mice.
research Role of umbilical cord mesenchymal stromal cells in skin rejuvenation
Umbilical cord cells may help delay skin aging.
research Comparison between single- versus double-spin prepared platelet-rich plasma injection in treatment of female pattern hair loss: clinical effect and relation to vascular endothelial growth factor
Both methods improve hair density and thickness; double-spin may be more effective.
research Brain-derived nerve factor and neurotrophins in androgenetic alopecia
Lower growth factors linked to balding in androgenetic alopecia.
research Circadian rhythms on skin function of hairless rats: light and thermic influences
Light and temperature affect the daily skin function rhythms in hairless rats, with temperature influencing water loss but not skin hydration.
research Inhibition of prolactin promotes secondary skin follicle activation in cashmere goats
Blocking prolactin increases the activity of secondary hair follicles in cashmere goats.
research Gender-specific risk factors for androgenetic alopecia in the Korean general population: Associations with medical comorbidities and general health behaviors
AGA risk factors include age, smoking, hypertension for men, and age, dyslipidemia for women; lifestyle changes may help prevention.
research Male pattern baldness and risk of colorectal neoplasia
Men with certain types of baldness at age 45 may have a higher risk of colon cancer and colorectal adenoma.
research Comparative Gene Expression Profiling of Senescent and Androgenetic Alopecia Using Microarray Analysis
SA linked to mitochondrial issues and oxidative stress, while AGA involves disrupted hair growth genes.
research Pathophysiological and Pharmaceutical Considerations for Enhancing the Control of Sarcoptes scabiei in Wombats Through Improved Transdermal Drug Delivery
Improving how drugs are absorbed through the skin could better treat mange in wombats.
research Expression and Cellular Localization of Keratinocyte Growth Factor and Its Receptor in Human Hyperplastic Prostate Tissue1
