research Effect of melatonin administration to lactating cashmere goats on milk production of dams and on hair follicle development in their offspring
Melatonin increases cashmere quality in goats but reduces their milk production and doesn't affect their offspring's hair growth.
research Additional file 6 of Time-course RNA-seq analysis reveals stage-specific and melatonin-triggered gene expression patterns during the hair follicle growth cycle in Capra hircus
Melatonin affects different genes and pathways important for goat hair growth.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research External light activates hair follicle stem cells through eyes via an ipRGC–SCN–sympathetic neural pathway
Light can turn on hair growth cells through a nerve path starting in the eyes.
research Topical melatonin has a beneficial effect on hair growth in women with diffuse or androgenetic alopecia,
Melatonin helps hair growth in women with hair loss issues.
research Expert consensus on the clinical application of Tianmeng oral liquid in psychosomatic disorders
Tianmeng oral liquid, a Chinese herbal formulation, is gaining recognition for treating psychosomatic disorders, which often include insomnia, anxiety, and depression. This expert consensus, developed through literature review and expert discussions, highlights its multi-target effects on the central nervous system, neuroendocrine regulation, and immune homeostasis. Evidence suggests it improves sleep, reduces anxiety and depression, and enhances well-being. It can be used alone in mild cases or alongside standard treatments, and is generally well tolerated. Further research is needed to solidify its clinical use and optimize treatment strategies.
research Dual deficiency of melatonin and dihydrotestosterone promotes stromal cell damage and mediates prostatitis via the cGAS-STING pathway in sleep-deprived mice
Lack of sleep in mice leads to prostatitis by reducing certain hormones and activating an inflammatory pathway, which can be temporarily fixed with normal sleep.
research The Skin POMC System (SPS): Leads and Lessons from the Hair Follicle
The Skin POMC System affects hair growth and skin responses to stress.
research Detection of Functionally Active Melanocortin Receptors and Evidence for an Immunoregulatory Activity of α-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
αMSH may help regulate immune responses in hair follicles and its disruption could lead to hair loss.
research Attention to Innate Circadian Rhythm and the Impact of Its Disruption on Diabetes
Disrupting natural body clocks increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
research The effect of melatonin treatment on hair follicle activity in growing chinchillas
Melatonin boosts hair growth in chinchillas.
research Chronic circadian misalignment is a risk factor for hair growth impairment
Disrupted sleep patterns from artificial light can slow hair growth and may lead to hair loss.
research Comparison between melatonin versus melatonin and photobiomodulation versus photobiomodulation in the treatment of Alopecia X in German Spitz dogs: Clinical, randomized, double-blind, parallel, non-inferiority protocol
Melatonin and photobiomodulation are effective for treating Alopecia X in German Spitz dogs.
research Molecular Basis of Maintaining Circannual Rhythm in the Skin of Cashmere Goat
Goat skin adapts to seasonal changes through genes that respond to daylight length, affecting hormone levels and potentially making skin cells light-sensitive.
research EFFECTS OF α-MELANOCYTE-STIMULATING HORMONE AND [8-ARGININE]-VASOTOCIN UPON MELANOGENESIS IN HAIR FOLLICLE MELANOCYTES IN VITRO
α-MSH increases melanin production in moulting hair follicles, while AVT inhibits it.
research COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF REGENERATION STIMULATION DRUG ON THE STRUCTURE AND RATE OF HAIR GROWTH IN WHITE RATS
Melatonin and lyotritone improve hair growth and quality in white rats.
research The Neurosteroidogenic Enzyme 5α-Reductase Mediates Psychotic-Like Complications of Sleep Deprivation
The enzyme 5α-reductase is key in causing psychotic-like effects from sleep deprivation.
research Stem cells and the circadian clock
The circadian clock influences the behavior and regeneration of stem cells in the body.
research Hair test reveals plasticity of human chronotype
HairTime can predict and adjust human sleep patterns using a hair sample.
research The BLMP-1 transcription factor promotes oscillatory gene expression to achieve timely molting
BLMP-1 is important for regular molting and gene expression cycles in worms.
research Dose–Response Effects of Oral Melatonin on Reproductive Parameters in Intact Male Pomeranian Dogs With Alopecia X: A Controlled Study
Melatonin improved reproductive function in male Pomeranian dogs with Alopecia X, but more research is needed.
research An out-of-lab trial: a case example for the effect of intensive exercise on rhythms of human clock gene expression
Intense exercise at night can delay the body's internal clock gene expression by 2 to 4 hours.
research The effect of melatonin treatment on fur maturation period and hair follicle cycle in growing chinchillas
Melatonin affects fur growth timing in chinchillas.
research Effect of Injecting Melatonin Capsules on Growth of Skin Follicle of Longdong Cashmere Goats
Injecting melatonin improves cashmere yield by enhancing fiber growth in goats.
research Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling controls hair pigmentation by means of cross-talk with the melanocortin receptor-1 pathway
BMP signaling affects hair color by interacting with the MC-1R pathway.
research Melatonin vitamin C-based nanovesicles for treatment of androgenic alopecia: Design, characterization and clinical appraisal
Melatonin vitamin C-based nanovesicles improved hair growth and reduced hair loss in androgenic alopecia patients.
research 518 Nutrient and stress sensing as novel physiological regulator of human hair pigmentation and greying: Role of mTORC1 activity
Blocking mTORC1 activity could increase hair pigmentation and potentially reverse greying.
research Melanogenesis is coupled to murine anagen: Toward new concepts for the role of melanocytes and the regulation of melanogenesis in hair growth
