research Finasteride, a Type 2 5α-reductase inhibitor, in the treatment of men with androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride effectively treats male hair loss, improving growth and density.
research Gene expression of type 2 17β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in scalp hairs of hirsute women
Hirsute women have lower type 2 17β-HSD enzyme levels, which improve with treatment.
research Microbiome in the hair follicle of androgenetic alopecia patients
Hair loss patients have different microbes in hair follicles, possibly affecting hair loss.
research Dose-response study of topical minoxidil in male pattern alopecia
Minoxidil 1% and 2% best promote hair growth and may prevent hair loss.
research The Metabolism and Control Mechanism of Human Hair Follicles
Human hair follicles have a unique metabolism that changes between growth stages and may contribute to baldness.
research 5α-Reductase type 1 inhibition of Oryza sativa bran extract prepared by supercritical carbon dioxide fluid
Rice bran extract might help prevent hair loss.
research Androgens trigger different growth responses in genetically identical human hair follicles in organ culture that reflect their epigenetic diversity in life
Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.
research The 5alpha-reductase type 1, but not type 2, gene is expressed in anagen hairs plucked from the vertex area of the scalp of hirsute women and normal individuals
The gene SDR5A1 is found in scalp hair of both hirsute and normal individuals, but it does not explain differences in hair growth.
research KY19382, a novel activator of Wnt/β‐catenin signalling, promotes hair regrowth and hair follicle neogenesis
KY19382 helps regrow hair and create new hair follicles.
research Defining microRNA signatures of hair follicular stem and progenitor cells in healthy and androgenic alopecia patients
Found microRNA differences in hair cells, suggesting potential treatment targets for hair loss.
research Androgenetic, Diffuse and Senescent Alopecia in Men: Practical Evaluation and Management
The conclusion is that treatments like finasteride and minoxidil can prevent baldness progression and improve hair density, but more research is needed on other therapies.
research Hair Restoration
Hair restoration surgery redistributes existing hair to achieve a natural look, with visible regrowth in 3-4 months and rare complications, mostly aesthetic.
research Recreation of a hair follicle regenerative microenvironment: Successes and pitfalls
Hair growth environment recreated with challenges; stem cells make successful skin organoids.
research The ‘bald’ phenotype (androgenetic alopecia) is caused by the high glycaemic, high cholesterol and low mineral ‘western diet’
Western diet may cause male pattern baldness; low glycemic diet with magnesium could help.
research In silico analysis of gene expression data from bald frontal and haired occipital scalp to identify candidate genes in male androgenetic alopecia
Found 32 genes linked to male baldness, affecting hair growth and stress-related pathways.
research Isolation and Quantification of Glycosaminoglycans from Human Hair Shaft
Human hair contains more glycosaminoglycans in children than adults, and these compounds decrease with age, possibly affecting hair thickness.
research Comparative Gene Expression Profiling of Senescent and Androgenetic Alopecia Using Microarray Analysis
SA linked to mitochondrial issues and oxidative stress, while AGA involves disrupted hair growth genes.
research Knockdown of FOXA2 Impairs Hair-Inductive Activity of Cultured Human Follicular Keratinocytes
Reducing FOXA2 in skin cells lowers their ability to grow hair.
research Differentiation of nestin-negative human hair follicle outer root sheath cells into neurons in vitro
Human hair follicle cells can be turned into neural stem cell-like cells, which might help treat brain diseases.
research Female pattern hair loss possibly caused by tamoxifen: Androgen receptor expression in the outer root sheath in the affected area
Tamoxifen may cause female hair loss by increasing androgen receptor expression.
research Maintenance of optimised hair growth from viable terminal scalp hair follicles at baseline with oral finasteride in male pattern hair loss and first evidence of a “drug dependency” and a post-finasteride “rebound effect”.
Finasteride helps hair growth but stopping it causes faster hair loss.
research Follicular Unit Hair Transplantation
Follicular Unit Transplantation is a precise hair restoration technique that requires careful planning and a skilled team, and Follicular Unit Extraction offers a less invasive option.
research Scalp hair repigmentation in the penumbral region of radiotherapy– a case series
Radiotherapy can cause rare changes in hair color, which should be discussed with patients.
research Androgenetic Alopecia
Heredity and hormones cause common hair loss, and topical minoxidil is the first recommended treatment.
research Aging Skin: A Window to the Body
Skin aging reflects overall body aging and can indicate internal health conditions.
research A cross-specialty expert opinion on the management of hair loss in gynaecological and endocrinological disorders in Indian patients
A multidisciplinary approach is crucial for effectively managing hair loss linked to endocrine and gynecological disorders.
research Comparative analysis of stemness between dermal papilla cells and human dermalstem/progenitor cells
Human dermal stem/progenitor cells can divide and differentiate more than hair follicle dermal papilla cells.
research Real-time in vivo structure-function study of scalp hair cycles: an experimental approach for monitoring living hair roots with a 20-year follow-up
Minoxidil and finasteride effectively promote hair regrowth within 3 months.
research Clinical and molecular genetic studies in hereditary hair loss
Researchers found a genetic link for hereditary hair loss but need more analysis to identify the exact gene.
