research Comparative efficacy of topical finasteride (0.25%) in combination with minoxidil (5%) against 5% minoxidil or 0.25% finasteride alone in male androgenetic alopecia: A pilot, randomized open-label study
Using both minoxidil and finasteride together is more effective for male hair loss than using either one alone.
research Study of cutaneous manifestations in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome attending a tertiary care centre
Women with PCOS often have acne, obesity, and excess hair, especially on the chin and upper lip.
research Referee report. For: Pathogenesis of Androgenetic alopecia [v1; indexed, http://f1000r.es/5ar]
Androgenetic alopecia may be irreversible due to the detachment of a muscle from hair follicles.
research Hair transplantation—State of the art
Hair transplantation has improved to more natural-looking results and is complemented by effective non-surgical treatments, with ongoing research into hair follicle cloning.
research Trichogenic effect of low level laser therapy combined with platelet-rich plasma for the management of androgenetic alopecia
Combining laser therapy with platelet-rich plasma improves hair growth in people with hair loss.
research Association between epidermal growth factor and epidermal growth factor receptor gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to alopecia areata in Korean population
Certain gene variations might increase the risk of a hair loss condition in Koreans.
research Self-organization process in newborn skin organoid formation inspires strategy to restore hair regeneration of adult cells
Newborn mouse skin cells can grow hair and this process can be recreated in adult cells to potentially help with hair loss.
research In Vitro Assembly and Structure of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Scientists successfully created mouse hair proteins in the lab, which are stable and similar to natural hair.
research CBL1‐CIPK26‐mediated phosphorylation enhances activity of the NADPH oxidase RBOHC, but is dispensable for root hair growth
A specific protein complex increases the activity of a plant enzyme, but this action is not required for plant root hair growth.
research VEGF upregulates VEGF receptor-2 on human outer root sheath cells and stimulates proliferation through ERK pathway
VEGF stimulates hair cell growth and increases growth receptor levels through a specific signaling pathway.
research The atypical ‘hippocampal’ glutamate receptor coupled to phospholipase D that controls stretch‐sensitivity in primary mechanosensory nerve endings is homomeric purely metabotropic GluK2
A special receptor in sensory nerve endings helps control how they respond to stretching.
research Editors' Picks
Activin increases skin tumor formation, skin Tregs help hair growth, lymph-node removal doesn't improve melanoma survival, cells can revert to stem cells in wound healing, and skin bacteria produce peptides that may treat infections.
research Safety and efficacy of actinic keratoses reduction with a 3 day application of ingenol disoxate field treatment to the face, chest and balding scalp
The treatment increased hair follicle counts and is potentially effective for male hair loss without serious side effects.
research Investigator‐blinded, controlled, and randomized comparative study on 1565 nm non‐ablative fractional laser versus 5% minoxidil for treatment of androgenetic alopecia
The 1565 nm non-ablative fractional laser is more effective and satisfying than 5% minoxidil for treating hair loss.
research Comparison of Clinical Efficacy and Trichoscopic Changes in Alopecia Areata of the Scalp following Treatment with Intralesional Triamcinolone Acetonide and Autologous Platelet-Rich Plasma
Intralesional triamcinolone acetonide is better than PRP for treating scalp alopecia areata, leading to faster and more complete hair regrowth.
research A study to assess the relationship between female pattern hair loss and levels of serum 25 Hydroxyvitamin D and ferritin
Low levels of vitamin D and ferritin may increase the risk of female pattern hair loss.
research Platelet-rich plasma as a therapy for androgenic alopecia: a systematic review and meta-analysis
PRP treatment increases hair density and thickness in androgenetic alopecia by 79%.
research Hair Thickness Growth Effect of Adenosine Complex in Male-/Female-Patterned Hair Loss via Inhibition of Androgen Receptor Signaling
Adenosine complex helps increase hair thickness and density in hair loss.
research Paradoxical hypertrichosis after laser epilation
Very few people experience increased hair growth after laser hair removal, especially those with darker skin and black hair.
research Influence of massage and occlusion on the ex vivo skin penetration of rigid liposomes and invasomes
Massage increases how deep both rigid and flexible liposomes can go into skin, with flexible ones going deeper, and covering the skin (occlusion) helps rigid ones more.
research Platelet‐rich plasma on female androgenetic alopecia: Tested on 10 patients
PRP injections increase hair density and diameter in female androgenetic alopecia patients.
research Efficacy of 1,550-nm Erbium-Glass Fractional Laser Treatment and Its Effect on the Expression of Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 and Wnt/β-Catenin in Androgenetic Alopecia
Laser treatment improves hair density and increases growth factors in androgenetic alopecia.
research Megasessions
Megasessions in hair transplant can cover more area or increase density but need a skilled team and careful planning, and have both benefits like less downtime and risks like lower graft survival.
research The effect of 1540‐nm fractional erbium‐glass laser in the treatment of androgenic alopecia
Laser treatment effectively increases hair density and thickness in androgenic alopecia.
research The Interrelation Between Hirsutism and Androgen Hormone Levels as Well as Serum TNFΑ Concentrations
High androgen levels can cause hirsutism and increase inflammation.
research Spatiotemporal dynamics of sensory neuron and Merkel-cell remodeling are decoupled during epidermal homeostasis
Sensory neuron remodeling and Merkel-cell changes happen independently during skin maintenance.
research Spatiotemporal dynamics of sensory neuron and Merkel-cell remodeling are decoupled during epidermal homeostasis
Sensory neuron and Merkel cell changes in the skin happen independently during normal skin maintenance.
research The Effect of A100 Gel, on Hair Growth and Hair Quality: An Explanatory Study
