660-690 / 1000+ resultsresearch Genomewide Scan for Linkage Reveals Evidence of Several Susceptibility Loci for Alopecia Areata
Certain genes on chromosomes 6, 10, 16, and 18 may increase the risk of alopecia areata.
research Autoimmunity: Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease causing hair loss, treatable with immune-modulating drugs, and linked to genetics.
research A multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial of a novel formulation of 5% minoxidil topical foam versus placebo in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia in men
New 5% minoxidil foam effectively promotes hair growth and is safe for use.
research Dermatological adverse events with taxane chemotherapy
Taxane chemotherapy can cause skin, hair, and nail side effects, which are often under-reported and can affect patient quality of life.
research Evaluation of Not-Activated and Activated PRP in Hair Loss Treatment: Role of Growth Factor and Cytokine Concentrations Obtained by Different Collection Systems
PRP treatment improves hair growth, and the device used can affect results, with some being more effective.
research Dlx3 is a crucial regulator of hair follicle differentiation and cycling
Dlx3 is essential for hair growth and regeneration.
research Penetration enhancer-containing vesicles (PEVs) as carriers for cutaneous delivery of minoxidil
PEVs improve minoxidil skin penetration, increasing hair growth.
research Characterization and Management of Hedgehog Pathway Inhibitor-Related Adverse Events in Patients With Advanced Basal Cell Carcinoma
Understanding and managing side effects of hedgehog pathway inhibitors can improve treatment for advanced basal cell carcinoma.
research Mice humanised for the EGF receptor display hypomorphic phenotypes in skin, bone and heart
Mice with human-like EGFR had growth issues, skin defects, heart problems, and unusual bone development.
research Activation of Polyamine Catabolism Profoundly Alters Tissue Polyamine Pools and Affects Hair Growth and Female Fertility in Transgenic Mice Overexpressing Spermidine/SpermineN 1-Acetyltransferase
Overexpressing a specific enzyme in mice causes hair loss and female infertility.
research Hemostatic properties and the role of cell receptor recognition in human hair keratin protein hydrogels
Keratin from human hair shows promise for medical uses like wound healing and tissue engineering.
research Epidermal β-catenin activation remodels the dermis via paracrine signalling to distinct fibroblast lineages
Epidermal β-catenin activation changes the dermis by signaling different fibroblast types.
research Atypical Progeroid Syndrome due to Heterozygous Missense LMNA Mutations
The research found that Atypical Progeroid Syndrome has unique symptoms and is not caused by the buildup of a certain mutant protein.
research Identification of reptilian genes encoding hair keratin-like proteins suggests a new scenario for the evolutionary origin of hair
Reptiles have genes similar to hair proteins, suggesting hair's genetic origins predate mammals.
research Hair Growth Cycle Affects Hair Follicle Destruction by Ruby Laser Pulses
Ruby laser pulses best destroy hair follicles during the growth phase and effectiveness varies with laser intensity; melanin is key for targeting, and timing treatments can improve results.
research Exogen, Shedding Phase of the Hair Growth Cycle: Characterization of a Mouse Model
Researchers found that hair shedding happens mostly when new hair is growing and involves a unique process.
research Extracellular Vesicles in Skin Wound Healing
Extracellular vesicles help heal skin wounds and could be used for better treatments.
research Androgens and androgen receptor action in skin and hair follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Hair follicle stem cell differentiation is inhibited through cross‐talk between Wnt/β‐catenin and androgen signalling in dermal papilla cells from patients with androgenetic alopecia
Androgens block hair growth by disrupting cell signals; targeting GSK-3 may help treat hair loss.
research Genome-wide association meta-analysis of individuals of European ancestry identifies new loci explaining a substantial fraction of hair color variation and heritability
New genetic locations explain much of hair color variation in Europeans.
research Female Pseudohermaphroditism Caused by a Novel Homozygous Missense Mutation of the GR Gene
A new gene mutation causes female pseudohermaphroditism due to glucocorticoid resistance.
research Selenium for preventing cancer
Selenium supplements do not prevent cancer and may have harmful effects.
research Polymorphisms of the Androgen Receptor Gene and the Estrogen Receptor β Gene Are Associated with Androgen Levels in Women1
Certain genetic variations in the AR and ERβ genes can affect androgen levels in women.
research NEDD4 and NEDD4L regulate Wnt signalling and intestinal stem cell priming by degrading LGR5 receptor
NEDD4 and NEDD4L help control intestinal stem cells and prevent tumors by breaking down the LGR5 receptor.
research The PRIDE (Papulopustules and/or paronychia, Regulatory abnormalities of hair growth, Itching, and Dryness due to Epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors) syndrome
PRIDE syndrome includes skin and hair issues from cancer treatment with EGFR inhibitors.
research The Effect of Finasteride on the Expression of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Microvessel Density: A Possible Mechanism for Decreased Prostatic Bleeding in Treated Patients
Finasteride may reduce prostate bleeding by lowering blood vessel growth factor levels and blood vessel density in certain prostate areas.
research A Comprehensive Pathophysiology of Dandruff and Seborrheic Dermatitis – Towards a More Precise Definition of Scalp Health
The document concludes that dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis are linked to inflammation and skin changes, and treating them with specific shampoos can reduce these issues.
