90-120 / 1000+ results research Activity of Angiopteris evecta for baldness treatment
Angiopteris evecta extracts significantly promote hair growth in rabbits.
research Conditional Disruption of Hedgehog Signaling Pathway Defines its Critical Role in Hair Development and Regeneration
The hedgehog signaling pathway is crucial for hair growth but not for the initial creation of hair follicles.
research The transcriptional repressor CDP (Cutl1) is essential for epithelial cell differentiation of the lung and the hair follicle
CDP is crucial for lung and hair follicle cell development.
research Effects of minoxidil 2% vs. cyproterone acetate treatment on female androgenetic alopecia: a controlled, 12-month randomized trial
Minoxidil works better for female hair loss, but cyproterone reduces scalp oiliness and causes menstrual issues.
research Penetration enhancer-containing vesicles (PEVs) as carriers for cutaneous delivery of minoxidil
PEVs improve minoxidil skin penetration, increasing hair growth.
research Keratin 17 null mice exhibit age- and strain-dependent alopecia
Keratin 17 is crucial for early hair strength and cell survival.
research Synthesis and Structure–Activity Relationships of the First Ferrocenyl-Aryl-Hydantoin Derivatives of the Nonsteroidal Antiandrogen Nilutamide
Scientists made the first metal-based compounds from a nonsteroidal antiandrogen drug, which showed potential in fighting both hormone-dependent and independent prostate cancer cells.
research Female Gonadal Function before and after Treatment of Acromegaly
Treatment of acromegaly can improve women's reproductive health issues caused by hormonal imbalances or tumors.
research Targeted Skin Overexpression of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor in Mice Causes Epidermal Atrophy, Premature Skin Barrier Formation, Eye Abnormalities, and Alopecia
Overexpressing the mineralocorticoid receptor in mouse skin causes skin thinning, early skin barrier development, eye issues, and hair loss.
research Dihydrotestosterone Stimulates 5a-Reductase Activity in Pubic Skin Fibroblasts*
Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
research Prolactin: an emerging force along the cutaneous–endocrine axis
Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research Effects of captopril and minoxidil on left ventricular hypertrophy in resistant hypertensive patients: A 6 month double-blind comparison
Captopril reduces heart mass, while minoxidil has opposite effects and side effects.
research The role of androgens in COVID-19
Higher androgen levels might make COVID-19 worse, especially in men.
research Keratin network modifications lead to the mechanical stiffening of the hair follicle fiber
Changes in keratin make hair follicles stiffer.
research The mineralocorticoid receptor as a novel player in skin biology: beyond the renal horizon?
The mineralocorticoid receptor may play a role in skin and hair health and could be a new target for treating related disorders.
research The prolactin receptor as a therapeutic target in human diseases: browsing new potential indications
Blocking the prolactin receptor might help treat various diseases, but more research is needed.
research Male pattern baldness and the risk of prostate cancer
Men who experienced baldness at age 20 may have double the risk of getting prostate cancer.
research Epigenetic control of skin and hair regeneration after wounding
Skin and hair can regenerate after injury due to changes in gene activity, with potential links to how cancer spreads. Future research should focus on how new hair follicles form and the processes that trigger their creation.
research Unusual Microsporum canis infections in adult HIV patients
Itraconazole was effective in treating unusual M. canis infections in only one of two HIV-infected men.
research Evidence for various calcium sites in human hair shaft revealed by sub-micrometer X-ray fluorescence
The research found two types of calcium in human hair, one that varies among individuals and another that is consistent across people.
research Skin manifestations amongGATA2-deficient patients
Patients with GATA2 deficiency show early skin symptoms that help diagnose the condition.
research Penetration enhancer-containing vesicles (PEVs) as carriers for cutaneous delivery of minoxidil:in vitroevaluation of drug permeation by infrared spectroscopy
PEVs effectively deliver minoxidil through skin.
research Safe Selection of Genetically Manipulated Human Primary Keratinocytes with Very High Growth Potential Using CD24
Researchers found a safe and effective way to pick genetically modified skin cells with high growth potential using CD24.

Gilles de la Tourette syndrome is treatable, with behavioral therapy as a recommended first option and other treatments available for more severe cases.
research Skin disease in pregnancy
Some skin conditions are common during pregnancy and can be safely treated without affecting the pregnancy outcome.
research Anti-androgen Treatments
For women with moderate to severe unwanted hair growth or acne, birth control pills are the first choice, with other medications like cyproterone, spironolactone, flutamide, or finasteride as alternatives, and permanent hair removal should be done with electrolysis or laser.
research Mutations in Sterol O-Acyltransferase 1 (Soat1) Result in Hair Interior Defects in AKR/J Mice
A mutation in the Soat1 gene causes hair structure defects and other health issues in AKR/J mice.
