research The Metabolism and Control Mechanism of Human Hair Follicles
Human hair follicles have a unique metabolism that changes between growth stages and may contribute to baldness.
research From gene to therapy in spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy: Are we there yet?
Effective treatments for spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy are not yet available; more research is needed.
research Recent updates on Wnt signaling modulators: a patent review (2014-2020)
New patents show progress in developing drugs targeting the Wnt pathway for diseases like cancer and hair loss.
research New effects of caffeine on corticotropin‐releasing hormone (CRH)‐induced stress along the intrafollicular classical hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis (CRH‐R1/2, IP3‐R, ACTH, MC‐R2) and the neurogenic non‐HPA axis (substance P, p75NTRand TrkA) inex vivohuman male androgenetic scalp hair follicles
Caffeine may help reduce stress-induced hair loss.
research In-vivo uptake and metabolism of testosterone by the skin and other tissues of the rat
Rat skin takes up and processes testosterone differently than other organs, with testosterone being more important for the skin than its metabolite 5α-DHT.
research Effect of MK-386, a novel inhibitor of type 1 5 alpha-reductase, alone and in combination with finasteride, on serum dihydrotestosterone concentrations in men.
MK-386 and finasteride together effectively reduce DHT levels, potentially treating acne and male pattern baldness.
research Clinical use of 5α-reductase inhibitors
Finasteride effectively treats hair loss and enlarged prostate in men, with mild side effects.
research Generalised Glucocorticoid Resistance
Generalized glucocorticoid resistance causes hormone imbalances and varied symptoms due to gene mutations.
research Exosome-based Therapies for Androgenetic Alopecia: Mechanisms, MicroRNAs, and Clinical Prospects
Exosome therapy could be a promising new way to treat hair loss.
research Natural bioactive compounds as potential sources for alleviation and treatment of androgenetic alopecia: A research advance
Natural compounds from Chinese herbs may safely promote hair growth and treat common hair loss.
research Hormonal and Genetic Etiology of Male Androgenetic Alopecia
research In vitro and In vivo Effects of 17β-N-(4-phenylcarbamoyl) androst-4-en-3- one Derivatives as 5a-reductase Inhibitors on Androgen-dependent Glands
Three compounds were found to inhibit a prostate disease-related enzyme and reduce prostate size more effectively than the current treatment, suggesting they could be used for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research The Search for the Causes of Common Hyperandrogenism, 1965 to Circa 2015
Significant progress was made in understanding androgen excess disorders, but much is still unknown.
research Is Dihydrotestosterone a Classic Hormone?
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) mainly affects nearby cells, doesn't significantly change prostate hormonal environment or cancer risk, and doesn't play a main role in causing hair loss or acne. More research is needed on its effects on heart health, sexual function, and bone health.
research Thyroid Hormone Receptor Agonist Promotes Hair Growth in Mice
TDM10842, a thyroid hormone receptor activator, was found to effectively promote hair growth in mice.
research Glucocorticoid Receptor Mutants Demonstrate Increased Motility Inside the Nucleus of Living Cells: Time of Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP) Is an Integrated Measure of Receptor Function
Certain defective glucocorticoid receptor mutants move faster inside cell nuclei and work less effectively.
research The acne hormones
Eating high-glycemic and dairy foods can increase hormones that may cause acne and other health issues.
research Diet and acne
Diet changes can help reduce acne by limiting certain hormones.
research Trichodysplasia of immunosuppression treated with oral valganciclovir
Oral valganciclovir improved a patient's skin condition caused by immunosuppression.
research Dermatologic Diseases
The document concludes that early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing skin diseases in ferrets.
research 5α- Reductase Inhibitors in Prostate Cancer: An Overview
5α-reductase inhibitors like Finasteride and Dutasteride may help manage prostate cancer by blocking testosterone conversion.
