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.
research Alopecia Areata following Adalimumab
A woman developed hair loss after starting a treatment with adalimumab, suggesting this medication might cause hair loss.
research Treatment of male rats with finasteride, an inhibitor of 5alpha-reductase enzyme, induces long-lasting effects on depressive-like behavior, hippocampal neurogenesis, neuroinflammation and gut microbiota composition
Finasteride treatment in male rats causes long-lasting effects on depression-like behavior, brain cell growth, inflammation, and gut bacteria composition.
research Through the lens of hair follicle neogenesis, a new focus on mechanisms of skin regeneration after wounding
Hair can regrow in large wounds through a process similar to how hair forms in embryos, and understanding this could lead to new treatments for hair loss or scarring.
research Single-cell profiling reveals a potent role of quercetin in promoting hair regeneration
Quercetin significantly helps hair growth by activating hair follicles and improving blood vessel formation around them.
research Proprietary Herbal Extract Downregulates the Gene Expression of Il-1 and #945; in HaCaT Cells: Possible Implications Against Nonscarring Alopecia
A herbal extract may help treat certain types of hair loss by reducing a specific gene's activity.
research Brain allopregnanolone induces marked scratching behaviour in diet-induced atopic dermatitis mouse model
A brain-produced steroid causes increased scratching in mice with a skin condition similar to eczema.
research Anti-proliferative effect of terpenes on human prostate cáncer cells: natural sources and their potential role as chemopreventive agents.
Certain natural compounds called terpenes may help prevent prostate cancer.
research TYK2 Inhibition with Deucravacitinib Improves Clinical Outcomes and Resolves Interferon-Driven Inflammation in Lichen Planopilaris
Deucravacitinib improves symptoms and reduces inflammation in Lichen Planopilaris.
research Macrophages as central mediators of sympathetic neuro-immune interplay in autoimmunity
Restoring nerve-macrophage communication may help treat autoimmune diseases.
research The Acne-treatment Potential of Cinnamomum Camphora Chvar. Borneol Essential Oil in Vitro and in Vivo

research Dupilumab: A Review of Present Indications and Off-Label Uses
Dupilumab is being tested for many new skin, respiratory, and gastrointestinal conditions.
research Type-2 immunity associated with type-1 related skin inflammatory diseases: friend or foe?
Type-2 immunity may influence skin diseases and could be targeted for treatment.
research Androgenic modulation of arterial baroreceptor dysfunction and neuroinflammation in endotoxic male rats
Testosterone affects blood pressure control and inflammation in male rats with endotoxic shock, and blocking certain hormones may help treat it.
research 5α-Reduced glucocorticoids: a story of natural selection
Natural 5α-reduced glucocorticoids might be anti-inflammatory with fewer side effects than current options.
research Modelling androgen synthesis and action during human sexual differentiation
Male sexual differentiation is regulated independently, while female differentiation occurs in an androgenic environment, affecting conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Large Scale Gene Expression Profiles of Regenerating Inner Ear Sensory Epithelia
Birds can regenerate inner ear cells using specific gene pathways, unlike mammals.
research Anticytokine therapy, particularly anti-IFN-γ, in Th1-mediated autoimmune diseases
Blocking interferon-gamma might help treat various autoimmune diseases.
research Future Directions in the Treatment of Vitiligo
New treatments for vitiligo may focus on protecting melanocyte stem cells from stress and targeting specific pathways involved in the condition.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Precision therapeutics in non-scarring alopecia: a systemic genomic and pathway-based framework for targeted interventions
Personalized treatments for hair loss focus on specific genetic and biological pathways.
research Transcriptional Profiling in Rat Hair Follicles following Simulated Blast Insult: A New Diagnostic Tool for Traumatic Brain Injury
Hair follicles can help diagnose traumatic brain injury quickly and non-invasively.
research COVID‐19, androgens, and androgenic alopecia
COVID-19 may worsen with androgens; anti-androgen drugs could help.
research The endocannabinoid system of the skin. A potential approach for the treatment of skin disorders
Targeting the skin's endocannabinoid system could help treat skin disorders.
research Androgenetic alopecia: a review
Male pattern baldness involves genetics, hormones, and needs better treatments.
research Prolactin and the Skin: A Dermatological Perspective on an Ancient Pleiotropic Peptide Hormone
Prolactin affects hair growth and skin conditions, and could be a target for new skin disease treatments.
research 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin Increases the Expression of Genes in the Human Epidermal Differentiation Complex and Accelerates Epidermal Barrier Formation
