research Weathering of the hairless scalp: a study using skin capacitance imaging and ultraviolet light-enhanced visualization
The study found that long-term sun exposure does not significantly affect follicular plugs on the scalp, and the scalp's appearance is unique compared to other body parts.
research Chronic administration of minoxidil protects elastic fibers and stimulates their neosynthesis with improvement of the aorta mechanics in mice
Minoxidil helps protect and rebuild elastic fibers in arteries, improving artery function, especially in older females.
research The aetiology and pathogenesis of alopecia areata
The cause of alopecia areata is likely a mix of genetics, immune system issues, and environmental factors, with more research needed to understand it fully.
research Prolactin Signaling Influences the Timing Mechanism of the Hair Follicle: Analysis of Hair Growth Cycles in Prolactin Receptor Knockout Mice
Prolactin affects when mice shed and grow hair.
research Wnt signaling activation: targets and therapeutic opportunities for stem cell therapy and regenerative medicine
Wnt activation shows promise for regenerative medicine but requires selective targeting to minimize risks like cancer.
research Environmental and Cosmetic Factors in Hair Loss and Destruction
Environmental and cosmetic factors, including heat, chemicals, and sun exposure, can cause hair loss and damage.
research Predominant expression of 5 alpha-reductase type 1 in pubic skin from normal subjects and hirsute patients.
The main enzyme found in pubic skin that could be targeted to treat excessive hair growth is 5 alpha-R2.
research Estudio transversal acerca de los hábitos de prescripción en alopecia androgénica de los dermatólogos en España en 2017
