Current treatments for androgenetic alopecia have limitations, and personalized approaches and new methods are needed for better results.
research Dendrobium officinale polysaccharide improves hair regrowth in androgenetic alopecia mice and is associated with coordinated changes in local steroid metabolism, ESR1 activation, and keratin-related follicular responses
Dendrobium officinale polysaccharide helps hair regrowth in hair loss mice by affecting local steroid metabolism and hair follicle responses.
research Selection signatures in goats reveal a novel deletion mutant underlying cashmere yield and diameter
A specific genetic deletion in goats affects cashmere yield and thickness.
research Alopecia androgénica femenina: nuevos factores fisiopatológicos y futuras tendencias para un abordaje clínico más integral
New factors in female hair loss include genetics, hormones, stress, and inflammation; future treatments should also focus on these areas and consider the patient's emotional well-being.
research SARS‐CoV‐2 & androgenic alopecia: exploring links!
Possible link between COVID-19 and hair loss; more research needed.
research Vitamin D metabolism and function in the skin
Skin cells produce and activate vitamin D, which regulates skin functions and supports hair growth.
research Vitamin D and the skin: Physiology and pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research Inactivation of the Vitamin D Receptor Enhances Susceptibility of Murine Skin to UV-Induced Tumorigenesis
Mice without the vitamin D receptor are more prone to UV-induced skin tumors.
research Vitamin D receptor is essential for normal keratinocyte stem cell function
Vitamin D receptor is crucial for normal hair growth and preventing hair loss.
research Neurosteroidogenesis Today: Novel Targets for Neuroactive Steroid Synthesis and Action and Their Relevance for Translational Research
New targets for making and using brain-synthesized steroids could lead to better treatments for brain disorders and alcoholism.
research Effect of estrogens on skin aging and the potential role of SERMs
Estrogens help reduce skin aging, and SERMs might offer similar benefits without the risks of hormone therapy.
research Mutations in the vitamin D receptor and hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets
Mutations in the vitamin D receptor cause hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, leading to poor bone health and requiring high calcium doses for treatment.
research The endocannabinoid system of the skin. A potential approach for the treatment of skin disorders
Targeting the skin's endocannabinoid system could help treat skin disorders.
research The Vitamin D Receptor as Tumor Suppressor in Skin
Vitamin D and its receptor may help prevent skin cancer.
research Disruption of the hedgehog signaling pathway contributes to the hair follicle cycling deficiency in Vdr knockout mice
Mice without Vitamin D receptors have hair growth problems because of issues in the hedgehog signaling pathway.
research Thyroid hormone action on skin
Thyroid hormone affects skin health, with too little causing rough, pale skin and too much leading to smooth, thin skin, and may also impact wound healing and skin conditions.
research Regulation of VDR by ΔNp63α is associated with inhibition of cell invasion
ΔNp63α helps control a protein that stops cancer cells from spreading.
research A Humanized Mouse Model of Hereditary 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D–Resistant Rickets Without Alopecia
Researchers created a mouse model of a type of rickets that does not cause hair loss.
research Retinoid-mediated stimulation of steroid sulfatase activity in myeloid leukemic cell lines requires RARα and RXR and involves the phosphoinositide 3-kinase and ERK-MAP kinase pathways
Retinoids increase steroid sulfatase activity in leukemia cells through RARα/RXR and involves certain pathways like phosphoinositide 3-kinase and ERK-MAP kinase.
research Advances in male hormone substitution therapy
New treatments for low male hormones improved sexual function and mood but had unclear risks, especially for older men.
research The Molecular Biology of the Vitamin D Receptor
The vitamin D receptor can affect gene activity even without its usual hormone in hair and skin.
research The 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-independent actions of the vitamin D receptor in skin
