research Effects of Nitric Oxide on Skin Burn Wound Healing
Nitric oxide gel helps heal skin burns faster by improving skin growth, hair regrowth, and blood vessel formation.
research Mechanisms of hepatocyte attachment to keratin biomaterials
Human liver cells stick to hair protein materials mainly through the liver's asialoglycoprotein receptor.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa/Acne inversa: an endocrine skin disorder?
Hidradenitis suppurativa may be related to hormones and patients often have metabolic disorders; more research is needed to understand this connection.
research Semiology of skin toxicity associated with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors
Skin problems like acne, dry skin, and nail and hair changes are common in patients taking EGFR inhibitors.

research Androgenetic alopecia and risk of prostate cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Vertex pattern hair loss linked to higher prostate cancer risk.
research Treatment strategies for alopecia
Some treatments work for common baldness, but there's less evidence for other hair loss types, and more research is needed.
research miR-22 promotes stem cell traits via activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma
miR-22 helps skin cancer grow and spread by activating specific cell signals.
research ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective FDA-approved treatments for androgenetic alopecia.
