Male pattern baldness involves three mechanisms and finasteride can help reverse it.
research Cyproterone Acetate: A Genotoxic Carcinogen?
Cyproterone acetate may cause liver cancer at high doses, but is considered safe at recommended doses for approved uses.
research The effects of extra cellular matrix and growth factors on dermal papilla cell proliferation
Different substances affect hair and skin cell growth in various ways.
research Studies of the modulation of MHC antigen and cell adhesion molecule expression on human dermal papilla cells

research A Review of Platelet-Rich Plasma: History, Biology, Mechanism of Action, and Classification
Platelet-rich plasma shows promise for skin and hair treatments but needs more research and standardization.
research Cachexia and graft-vs.-host-disease-type skin changes in keratin promoter-driven TNF alpha transgenic mice.
TNF alpha in skin cells causes weight loss, hair and fat issues, and skin inflammation in mice.
research Hormonal regulation of hair follicles exhibits a biological paradox
Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.
research Hair growth promoting effects of adipose tissue-derived stem cells
Fat tissue stem cells may help increase hair growth.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome: A review for dermatologists
Dermatologists play a key role in treating skin symptoms of PCOS like dark patches, excess hair, acne, and hair loss.
research Effect of 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and Testosterone on Apoptosis in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.
research Expression and roles of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein in ‘non-classical’, extra-adrenal and extra-gonadal cells and tissues
The protein StAR is found in 17 different organs and can affect hair loss and brain functions, but its full role is not yet fully understood.
research Cellular senescence in tissue repair: every cloud has a silver lining
Cell aging can be both good and bad for tissue repair.
research The mRNA for Protease Nexin-1 is Expressed in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and its Level is Affected by Androgen
Human skin cells contain Protease Nexin-1, and male hormones can decrease its levels, potentially affecting hair growth.
research Lactoferrin promotes hair growth in mice and increases dermal papilla cell proliferation through Erk/Akt and Wnt signaling pathways
Lactoferrin helps mice grow hair by increasing cell growth and hair follicle development.
research Acute sensitivity of the oral mucosa to oncogenic K‐ras
Oncogenic K-ras causes rapid cancerous changes in the mouth's lining.
research Progestogens in menopausal hormone therapy
Progestogens are essential in menopausal hormone therapy to prevent uterine cancer and must be chosen carefully based on individual needs.
research New small molecules in dermatology: for the autoimmunity, inflammation and beyond
New small molecule drugs show promise in treating complex skin diseases but need more safety research.
research The role of vasoactive peptides in skin homeostasis—focus on adiponectin and the kallikrein-kinin system
Adiponectin and bradykinin play important roles in skin health and may help treat skin conditions.
research Induction of synapse associated protein 102 expression in cyclosporin A-stimulated hair growth
Cyclosporin A promotes hair growth in mice and increases a protein linked to hair growth, but it may not work the same way in humans.
research Microarray analysis reveals distinct RNA expression profiles in endothelial progenitor cells exposed to pro-inflammatory environment or oxidized LDL
Different cells affect hair follicle blood vessels, endothelial cells react differently to inflammation and oxidized fats, and prasugrel better protects heart vessels during a procedure than clopidogrel.
