research Persistent Sexual and Nonsexual Adverse Effects of Finasteride in Younger Men
Finasteride can cause sexual problems and depression in young men.
research Ovarian hormones and adrenal androgens during a woman's life span
Women's ovarian hormones and adrenal androgens change throughout life, affecting hair loss and health.
research Androgen receptors are only present in mesenchyme-derived dermal papilla cells of red deer (Cervus elaphus) neck follicles when raised androgens induce a mane in the breeding season
Red deer only have androgen receptors in neck hair cells for mane growth during breeding season.
research Application of Nanoemulsions in Cosmetics
Nanoemulsions improve stability and delivery of active ingredients in cosmetics for skin and hair care.
research Overview of Ultrasound Imaging Applications in Dermatology
Ultrasound is a useful, non-invasive tool in dermatology for diagnosing skin conditions and guiding treatments, but it has some limitations.
research Skin transcriptome profiling of Changthangi goats highlights the relevance of genes involved in Pashmina production
Changthangi goats have specific genes that help produce Pashmina wool.
research Dermal Papilla Cells Serially Cultured with Wnt-10b Sustain their Hair Follicle Induction Activity after Transplantation into Nude Mice
Cells treated with Wnt-10b can grow hair after being transplanted into mice.
research Exogenous and endogenous lipids of human hair
