research Transient mitochondrial DNA double strand breaks in mice cause accelerated aging phenotypes in a ROS-dependent but p53/p21-independent manner
Damaging mitochondrial DNA in mice speeds up aging due to increased reactive oxygen species, not through the p53/p21 pathway.
research Heparan Sulfate Regulates Hair Follicle and Sebaceous Gland Morphogenesis and Homeostasis
Heparan sulfate is important for hair growth, preventing new hair formation in mature skin, and controlling oil gland development.
research ‘Black dots’ seen under trichoscopy are not specific for alopecia areata
Black dots under trichoscopy can appear in different hair and scalp conditions, not just in alopecia areata.
research Hair Growth: Focus on Herbal Therapeutic Agent

Blocking JAK/STAT pathways can help treat hair loss from alopecia areata.
research Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors for the treatment of skin and hair disorders: a review of literature
JAK inhibitors show promise for treating skin and hair disorders but need more research on long-term safety and effectiveness.
research Cysteine Prevents the Reduction in Keratin Synthesis Induced by Iron Deficiency in Human Keratinocytes
Cysteine helps maintain keratin production in skin cells even when iron is low.
research Prevalence of CYP21 mutations and IRS1 variant among women with polycystic ovary syndrome and adrenal androgen excess
Some women with PCOS have CYP21 mutations and IRS1 variants, but these genetic factors are not major contributors to PCOS.
research Improvement in the inflammatory aspect of androgenetic alopecia. A pilot study with an antimicrobial lotion
