research Gender Differences in Production and Circulating Levels of Sex Hormones and Their Impact on Aging Skin
Men and women experience skin aging differently due to changes in sex hormone levels with age.
research News in brief
Japanese researchers created new hair follicles from human cells that grew hair when put into mice, and other findings showed a link between eye disease severity and corneal thickness, gene mutations affecting hearing and touch, and the safety of the shingles vaccine for adults over 50.
research Histopathology of alopecia: a clinicopathological approach to diagnosis
The conclusion is that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires good teamwork between skin doctors and lab experts.
research Management of primary cicatricial alopecias: options for treatment
There are many treatments for permanent hair loss disorders, but their effectiveness varies and there's no clear best option.
research Effects of epidermal growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, minoxidil and hydrocortisone on growth kinetics in human hair bulb papilla cells and root sheath fibroblasts cultured in vitro
EGF and FGF boost hair cell growth, hydrocortisone slows it, and minoxidil doesn't affect it.
research Human hair growth ex vivo is correlated with in vivo hair growth: selective categorization of hair follicles for more reliable hair follicle organ culture
Choosing hair follicles at the same growth stage leads to more consistent hair growth experiments.
research Alopecia and techniques in hair restoration: an overview for the cosmetic surgeon
Hair loss can be reversed or even cured using advanced hair restoration techniques, with rare complications like swelling and bleeding.
research Postoperative Alopecia Following Oral Surgery
Hair loss can occur after oral surgery, likely due to stress and pressure on the scalp, and usually gets better on its own.
research A Classic Presentation of Acne Keloidalis Nuchae in a Black Male
Acne keloidalis nuchae causes scarring on the scalp, mainly in African American males, and early treatment is important to prevent lasting damage.

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 The Role of Non-Aromatizable Testosterone Metabolite in Metabolic Pathways
Normal levels of DHT can reduce belly fat and increase muscle, but too much can lead to hair loss, prostate issues, and possibly heart disease.
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 Androgenic alopecia: A counterproductive outcome of the anabolic effect of androgens
Male pattern baldness is an unintended side effect of the body's use of androgens for muscle growth, especially in those genetically prone to it.
