research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Prostaglandin D2 inhibits hair growth and is elevated in bald scalp of men with androgenetic alopecia.
A substance called prostaglandin D2 is found more in bald scalps and it stops hair from growing. Blocking its receptor could potentially treat hair loss.
research Glucoraphanin and sulforaphane biosynthesis by melatonin mediating nitric oxide in hairy roots of broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica Planch): insights from transcriptome data
Melatonin helps broccoli roots produce anti-cancer compounds by controlling nitric oxide and hydrogen peroxide levels.
research Valproic Acid Induces Hair Regeneration in Murine Model and Activates Alkaline Phosphatase Activity in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Valproic Acid helps regrow hair in mice and activates a hair growth marker in human cells.
research 5α-reductase activity in the prostate
Blocking the enzyme 5α-reductase can shrink the prostate and help treat enlarged prostate issues.
research Identifying the Target Cells and Mechanisms of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection
Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.
research Nitric Oxide Signal Transduction and Its Role in Skin Sensitization
Nitric oxide is important for skin functions and both helps protect against and contributes to skin inflammation and sensitization.
research Abstracts

research Baiting Proteins with C60
C60 fullerenes can alter protein function and may help develop new disease inhibitors.
research Influencing hair regrowth with EGCG by targeting glycogen synthase kinase-3β activity: a molecular dynamics study
EGCG may help regrow hair by inhibiting a specific enzyme.
research The prostaglandin synthases, COX-2 and L-PGDS, mediate prostate hyperplasia induced by low-dose bisphenol A
Low-dose bisphenol A increases prostate size in rats by affecting certain enzymes.
research Tyrosinase inhibition due to interaction of homocyst(e)ine with copper: the mechanism for reversible hypopigmentation in homocystinuria due to cystathionine beta-synthase deficiency.
Lowering homocyst(e)ine levels can reverse skin and hair lightening by restoring enzyme activity needed for pigmentation.
research Prostaglandin D2 Inhibits Wound-Induced Hair Follicle Neogenesis through the Receptor, Gpr44
Prostaglandin D2 blocks new hair growth after skin injury through the Gpr44 receptor.
research Biochemical and Structural Characteristics, Gene Regulation, Physiological, Pathological and Clinical Features of Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase as a Multifunctional Lipocalin
Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L-PGDS) is a protein that plays many roles in the body, including sleep regulation, pain management, food intake, and protection against harmful substances. It also affects fat metabolism, glucose intolerance, cell maturation, and is involved in various diseases like diabetes, cancer, and arthritis. It can influence sex organ development and embryonic cell differentiation, and its levels can be used as a diagnostic marker for certain conditions.
