research Comment on scalp neuropathy in androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss in men (androgenetic alopecia) is significantly linked to decreased scalp sensitivity, but not temperature sensitivity. More research is needed to confirm this. Comparing this hair loss to leprosy is unsupported and stigmatizing.
research Finding Parallels
Human stem cells can aid stroke recovery, research experiences boost students' career aspirations, minoxidil may reduce cancer spread, a molecule can slow tumor growth, a protein affects water flow in cells, magnesium behaves differently at tiny scales, and a new method detects slow-moving objects.
research Mitochondrial dysfunction in an animal model of diabetic neuropathy is associated with a reduction of neurosteroid synthesis.
Diabetic neuropathy in mice is linked to poor mitochondria function and lower brain hormone production.
research A ‘hot’ new twist to hair biology – involvement of vanilloid receptor‐1 signaling in human hair growth control
VR1 signaling can inhibit hair growth by affecting cell processes and increasing hair growth inhibitors.
research Implication of allopregnanolone in the antinociceptive effect of N -palmitoylethanolamide in acute or persistent pain
PEA reduces pain by increasing neurosteroid synthesis in the spinal cord.
research A role for p75 neurotrophin receptor in the control of apoptosis‐driven hair follicle regression
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important for hair follicle regression by controlling cell death.
research Complex Regional Pain Syndrome I (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy)
CRPS type I is a complex pain condition with no proven cure, requiring personalized treatment.
research Progesterone Pretreatment Enhances Serotonin-Stimulated BDNF Gene Expression in Rat C6 Glioma Cells Through Production of 5α-Reduced Neurosteroids
research Depletion of cortical allopregnanolone potentiates stress-induced increase in cortical dopamine output
Lower allopregnanolone levels increase stress-related dopamine release in the brain.
research Effects of botulinum toxin type A on histamine-induced itch and vasomotor responses in human skin
Botulinum toxin type A reduces itch and inflammation from histamine and may help treat certain skin conditions and hair loss.
research Regulation of immune response genes in the skin of allergic and clinically tolerant individuals exposed to p‐phenylenediamine
Everyone has an immune response to PPD, but reactions differ, causing tolerance, mild inflammation, or allergy.
research [The function of the autonomic nervous system in women with androgenetic alopecia].
Women with androgenetic alopecia have noticeable changes in their autonomic nervous system.
research Can we teach old drugs new tricks?—Repurposing of neuropharmacological drugs for inflammatory skin diseases
Old neuropharmacological drugs might be effective for treating inflammatory skin diseases.
research Author Response: Touch receptor end-organ innervation and function require sensory neuron expression of the transcription factor Meis2
The transcription factor Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and proper nerve development in touch receptors.
research eLife assessment: Touch receptor end-organ innervation and function require sensory neuron expression of the transcription factor Meis2
Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and proper nerve connection to touch receptors in certain skin areas of mice.
research Avaliação de respostas defensivas associadas ao pânico em ratas: perfil da ativação serotonérgica no núcleo dorsal da rafe e substância cinzenta periaquedutal
Female rats showed more panic-related behavior than males, influenced by hormonal cycles and certain drugs.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Hyperactivation of sympathetic nerves drives depletion of melanocyte stem cells.
Stress causes hair graying by overactivating nerves that deplete color-giving stem cells.
research Analysis of androgen receptor expression and activity in the mouse brain
Androgen receptors in the mouse brain may explain cognitive and mood changes in prostate cancer treatment.
research The relationship between psychological distress and neurotrophins in patients with alopecia areata: A crosssectional study
Alopecia areata patients experience more psychological distress, linked to certain neurotrophin levels.
research Neovascularization during healing of wounds treated with dermal substitutes and fibrin glue in nude mice
Dermagraft and Dermalogen had a lot of granulation, while Alloderm, Integra, and ADM had good blood vessel growth for skin healing.
research ANALYSIS OF DC-POTENTIAL LEVEL IN ELDERLY PEOPLE WITH DIFFERENT LEVELS OF ANXIETY LIVING IN THE EUROPEAN NORTH OF RUSSIA
Elderly women in Northern Russia have higher anxiety and different brain energy patterns than men.
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.
research Effects of sex steroid hormones and their metabolites on neuronal injury caused by oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation in organotypic hippocampal slice cultures
Progesterone and testosterone protect brain cells from damage through specific pathways.
research Remote photobiomodulation ameliorates behavioral and neuropathological outcomes in a rat model of repeated closed head injury
Remote photobiomodulation improves brain injury outcomes and behavior in rats.
research Comparison of the Efficacy Between Regional Nerve Block and Ring Block as Local Anesthetic Techniques for Platelet-Rich Plasma Treatment
Regional nerve blocks are better than ring blocks for pain relief during PRP hair treatment.
research Neonatal finasteride induces anxiogenic-like profile and deteriorates passive avoidance in adulthood after intrahippocampal neurosteroid administration
Finasteride given to baby rats causes anxiety-like behavior and worsens learning from punishment in adult rats.
research Nerves of Hair
Keratin-based hydrogels from human hair help nerve repair better than traditional methods.
research New effects of caffeine on corticotropin‐releasing hormone (CRH)‐induced stress along the intrafollicular classical hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis (CRH‐R1/2, IP3‐R, ACTH, MC‐R2) and the neurogenic non‐HPA axis (substance P, p75NTRand TrkA) inex vivohuman male androgenetic scalp hair follicles
