research Molecular Genetics of Alopecias
Scientists have found specific genes linked to different hair loss conditions, which could lead to new treatments.
research GWASs Identify Genetic Loci Associated with Human Scalp Hair Whorl Direction
Certain genes influence the direction of hair whorls on the scalp.
research Cue masking and cultural signals: Testing context-specific preferences for bald(ing) leaders
Baldness and shaved heads change how traits are seen but don't really affect leader preferences.
research Types of hairline recession in androgenetic alopecia and perceptions of aging in Asian males
Hairline recession makes Asian males look older, especially in mid-young age; proper hairline position can help them look younger.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: An Evidence-Based Treatment Update
Effective treatments for male pattern baldness include oral finasteride and topical minoxidil, while topical minoxidil is best for female pattern baldness.
research Histopathologic Evaluation of Alopecias
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires careful examination of hair and scalp tissue, considering both clinical and microscopic features.
research Pathogenesis of androgenetic alopecia
Male pattern baldness involves three mechanisms and finasteride can help reverse it.
research Clinical application of 5α-reductase inhibitors
5α-reductase inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, effectively treat BPH, male baldness, and hirsutism, with potential for acne and prostate cancer prevention.
research Androgen modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in androgenetic alopecia
Androgens may block hair growth signals, targeting this could treat hair loss.
research Alopecia and the metabolic syndrome
Men with common hair loss may have a higher risk of heart disease and diabetes, and should be checked for these conditions.
research Literature Review of Cosmetic Procedures in Men: Approaches and Techniques are Gender Specific
Men prefer less invasive cosmetic procedures and need different treatment approaches than women.
research Cause of Androgenic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness may be caused by scalp pressure on hair follicles, which increases with age and leads to a cycle of hair loss. This process is not directly determined by genes.
research Shedding light on therapeutics in alopecia and their relevance to COVID-19
Some alopecia treatments might help treat COVID-19, but more research is needed.
research Comment on “Androgenetic alopecia present in the majority of patients hospitalized with COVID-19”
Hair loss link to COVID-19 severity likely due to other factors.
research Using the follicular unit extraction technique in treatment of male androgenetic alopecia
Follicular unit extraction is an effective and minimally invasive treatment for male hair loss.
research Current understanding and treatment of sex hormone-related hair diseases
Sex hormones affect hair growth and loss, and treatments for related hair diseases include various medications, hair transplantation, and light therapy.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia
New understanding of hair loss could lead to better treatments.
research Has Technology Killed the Flap?
Scalp flaps are still a valuable hair loss treatment because of their benefits.
research The involvement of ROS on androgen inducible TGF beta 1 regulation derived from dermal papilla cells; a suggestive implication of ROS on androgenetic alopecia
ROS may affect hair loss related to hormones.
research Clinical Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Finasteride
Finasteride helps regrow hair and shrink prostate by reducing DHT, with some sexual side effects.
research Acanthosis nigricans, insulin resistance and cutaneous virilism
Patients with acanthosis nigricans often have insulin resistance and signs of increased male hormones, but treatment targeting these male hormones is generally ineffective.
research New topical antiandrogenic formulations can stimulate hair growth in human bald scalp grafted onto mice
Topical treatments can regrow hair on bald scalps.
research Minoxidil increases 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and 5α-reductase activity of cultured human dermal papilla cells from balding scalp
Minoxidil boosts enzymes that help hair growth.
research Acquired Progressive Kinking of the Hair
Curly hair in certain scalp areas can be an early sign of hair loss.
research The Androgen Receptor and Its Use in Biological Assays: Looking Toward Effect-Based Testing and Its Applications
Scientists have developed a new method to detect steroid abuse in athletes using cell-based tests, which could be the future of anti-doping methods.
research Androgen receptor transactivity is potentiated by TGF-β1 through Smad3 but checked by its coactivator Hic-5/ARA55 in balding dermal papilla cells
TGF-β1 increases androgen receptor activity in hair loss, but Hic-5/ARA55 can counter this effect.
research Synthesis and in Vitro Evaluation of 4-Substituted N-(1,1-Dimethylethyl)-3-oxo-4-androstene-17.beta.-carboxamides as 5.alpha.-Reductase Inhibitors and Antiandrogens
The new compounds moderately block a specific enzyme and strongly counteract a male hormone, suggesting potential for treating certain male-related health conditions.
research The eye and the skin in endocrine metabolic diseases
Diabetes can lead to blindness and skin problems, and managing blood sugar and blood pressure is crucial to prevent these complications.
research Indirect clinical markers for the detection of anabolic steroid abuse beyond the conventional doping control in athletes
New signs like changes in blood markers, physical symptoms, and behavioral shifts may help detect hidden steroid use in athletes.
