Betacoronaviruses, like COVID-19, may cause hormone system dysfunction and affect disease susceptibility and severity.
research An Intrinsic Oscillation of Gene Networks Inside Hair Follicle Stem Cells: An Additional Layer That Can Modulate Hair Stem Cell Activities
Gene network oscillations inside hair stem cells are key for hair growth regulation and could help treat hair loss.
research Chronic Treatment with Minoxidil Induces Elastic Fiber Neosynthesis and Functional Improvement in the Aorta of Aged Mice
Minoxidil treatment increases aorta elasticity and reduces stiffness in aged mice, potentially helping with age-related heart issues.
research Male hormonal contraception: looking back and moving forward
New male hormonal contraceptives show promise but need more research on long-term effects and funding for larger trials.
research Analysis of Dermal Papilla Cell Interactome Using STRING Database to Profile the ex Vivo Hair Growth Inhibition Effect of a Vinca Alkaloid Drug, Colchicine

research Recombinant human hepatitis B vaccine initiating alopecia areata: testing the hypothesis using the C3H/HeJ mouse model
The hepatitis B vaccine did not cause hair loss in the tested mice.
research Advances in male hormone substitution therapy
New treatments for low male hormones improved sexual function and mood but had unclear risks, especially for older men.
research Finasteride: The First 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and baldness, but may cause limited urinary improvement and sex-related side effects.
research Autologous cell–based therapy for male and female pattern hair loss using dermal sheath cup cells: A randomized placebo-controlled double-blinded dose-finding clinical study
DSC cell injections significantly improved hair density and diameter, showing potential as a hair loss treatment.
research A Randomized, Controlled Pilot Trial Comparing Platelet-Rich Plasma to Topical Minoxidil Foam for Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia in Women
Both Platelet-Rich Plasma and Minoxidil foam increase hair count in women with hair loss, but Minoxidil is more effective. However, women were more satisfied with Platelet-Rich Plasma treatment.
research Physical methods for topical skin drug delivery: concepts and applications
New physical methods like electrical currents, ultrasound, and microneedles show promise for improving drug delivery through the skin.
research Dehydroepiandrosterone for women in the peri- or postmenopausal phase
DHEA may help with sexual function when used intravaginally by menopausal women but is similar to hormone therapy in other aspects and might cause more side effects like acne and hair loss.
research Contraception and the dermatologist
Birth control pills can help manage acne, but dermatologists should know their skin-related side effects, especially when prescribing drugs that can harm unborn babies.
research The Follicular Automaton Model: Effect of Stochasticity and of Synchronization of Hair Cycles
The model showed that randomness accurately describes individual hair growth cycles and that synchronization can cause large fluctuations not seen in humans.
